Just finished playing Clock Tower: Rewind, and once you adjust to the clunky retro controls and subtle point-and-click puzzles, the core experience is incredible.

​What really hooked me was the art style and the story. It’s short, simple, and atmospheric without unnecessary fluff.

​The stalker dynamic with Scissorman, the panic mechanics, and the sheer vulnerability of having no weapons fit modern survival horror trends so well (think Outlast or Mr. X in the RE2 remake).

​What do you think the likelihood is of Sunsoft ever partnering with a dedicated horror studio to make a full 3D/modern remake?

​This game feels like a classic hidden gem just waiting for a proper reimagining. Maybe, someday...

After multiple trials, workarounds. Thanks to One Core API, I can now install my games from my Steam account for WinXP.

EDIT:

SPECS

• Windows XP Professional SP4 (installed all legacy updates and SP4 updates) 32bit
• 2x8gb ddr3 ram (haven't patched it yet so it can break the 3.5gb ram limits of 32bit WinXP)
• Intel i7-4790k

Wala pakong GPU, bibili pako sometime next month or so. Wala nakong budget atm.

I can only play basic casual games at the meantime saka nangangamote ako sa onboard drivers for Intel 4600 graphics, kahit may WinXP drivers, for some reason, ayaw gumana (i get an error di daw pasok sa system requirements ko to install the drivers).

As I've already played the 2002 remake years ago which I still somewhat remember bits and pieces of the story. Yeah, mas improved yung story logic and mechanics ng remake

Pero it's interesting to see how simple, primitive pa ang UI. Took me like 20mins to get used to the tank controls pero I get the hang of it.

I'm not leaving any stones unturned for this series.

This is for me to celebrate my 20th Anniversary being a PC Gamer/Lover/Enthusiast nrin.

Lately kasi I'm revisiting my childhood games that I've played years ago, starting from 80s NES games up to the casual games of the 2000s (e.g. Cake Mania, Diner Dash, Zuma, Pizza Frenzy) sympre GTA 3, VC, SA, Counterstrike, atbp.

After months of searching and getting dead ends. Meron nagoffer sakin dito sa Reddit, ayun, ayos usapan namin, looks good namn!

Ngayon, I'm contemplating if magbubuo ako ng dedicated WinXP machine to be paired with this.

Nakakamiss ganito. Saka naattract kasi ako kasi rare to find na siya.

Monitor Details:

* Samsung SyncMaster 753DFX 17" CRT Flatscreen

* Introduced in 2001

* Manufactured in March 2004

* OG owner bought it in July 2004, Bnew, at PC Worx for around P8,5k (that's around P20,200 in 2026 money, adjusted for inflation!)

Thx for reading!

Just curious if there's a market for these in 2026? I'm currently craving to have this back in my setup as my old Dell CRT monitor (my last CRT, exact model from the photo) died on me back in 2017. Saka I'm gaming lately older games from the 80s, 90s, and 2000s. It just doesn't feel the same on a modern 16:9/widescreen display...

Prang ang hirap na maghanap.

Medyo random thought lang habang nag-a-audit ako ng Steam purchase history ko for the last 8 years. Napansin ko na ang dami ko palang nakuha na steal deals through the years!

Pero at the same time, tinignan ko rin kung ano yung top most expensive purchases ko pareho sa digital at physical.

Eto yung sa akin:

• Most Expensive Game (Overall / Digital): Pre-order ng Resident Evil Requiem (Deluxe Edition) nung mid-Feb 2026 sa Steam at full price for ₱3,524.90.
• Most Expensive Physical Game: DVD copy ng GTA V way back 2015 for ₱2,495 (around ₱2,800+ na ata 'to if adjusted for inflation ngayon).

Curious lang ako kung...

1. Ano yung single most expensive video game na nabili niyo ever? (Digital, physical, collector's edition, or pre-order)
2. Magkano ang hard limit/cap niyo sa presyo bago niyo sabihing "pass muna, hihintayin ko na lang mag-sale"?
3. Bumibili pa rin ba kayo ng physical copies ngayon, or 100% digital na kayo?

Lapag niyo yung top purchases at budget rules niyo sa ibaba! TIA!

UPDATE: Salamat sa mga nagshare! Grabe! Eye opener mga comments, half of which I'm utterly speechless 😅😅 I thought GTA 6 preorder prices are bad, pero may mas worse pa pala. How little did I know... Again, thx for sharing

Naalala niyo pa ba noong E3 2013? Nung binabash ang Microsoft dahil sa restrictive DRM rules ng Xbox One, tapos naglabas si Sony ng iconic short video on "how to share a PS4 game"?

Fast forward to today, baliktad na ang ikot ng mundo. With all the rumors and backlash surrounding PS6 and digital-only trends, Digital Foundry’s John Linneman reports that Microsoft plans to stick with physical game discs and prioritize backwards compatibility for their next hardware.

Full circle moment talaga! Wow! Physical media collectors and preservationists might actually end up leaning towards Xbox next generation if this holds true.

Just wondering lang sa mga fellow gymbros ko dyan. I wonder how long it took you para maging 3D-looks ang shoulders ninyo?

For context, mag-10 months nako nag gygym, 4-5x per week, at 2hrs per session. Prang feeling ko very little lang ang improvement ko sa shoulders ko.

Ewan koba...

Just got Silent Hill 2!

It just occurred to me that I’ve been playing the GTA series for 15 years now. I wanted to take a quick trip down memory lane and ask: what are your best, most unforgettable memories of GTA San Andreas?

SA was my very first entry into the franchise back in 2011, and it completely blew my mind.

Ito yung tlga ang pinaka-first proper introduction ko sa Triple A gaming...

There's the music, the characters, the horrific AI-dependent missions, cheats, controversies, etc.

It still is the GOAT after all these years later.

ADD: PWEDE RIN DIRECT QUOTES FROM THE GAME... HAHA

ADD 2: Mga banat ni CJ tuwing nakabangga siya or kung anu "Whachu want fool?" "You're momma should be proud for your driving fool!" "Whachu my wheels" xD "Oh look! A gun!"
