Today, Portal with RTX is being upgraded with DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation, multiplying framerates, as well as the transformer model for Ray Reconstruction and DLAA, enabling even better image quality. Portal with RTX is also adding RTX Neural Radiance Cache (NRC), a neural shader that improves indirect lighting, as well as a bevy of performance optimizations.

Hot damn that's a good list. The only one i never played is AOE2 and i never finshed Chrono Trigger but it was damn good.
Speaking of what's old but holds up amazingly well and plays like a dream.. i played Symphony of the Night for the first time in 2019.. yep that's right. It became one of my favourite games of all time that i replay almost every year. I couldn't believe how good it was. That is almost impossible for me with newer games let alone older ones. Truly a special gem.
The only one I’d disagree with is doom. It shows its age badly I think. After 5 minutes of play these days you put it down.

Portal deserves to be one of steams highest rated games... It's almost tetris levels of perfect game design.
Gotta love Steam. Just got Portal 2 for .97 cents CAD. Should have been $1.29, selected the bundle with Portal 1 and 2, which gets a 25% discount, already have Portal 1, so it removes the cost of that, and still applies the full 25% bundle discount to Portal 2. 90% + 25% discount.
time to reinstall portal :)
I love these, lol. Valve releases a weird update for a game, and the whole SteamPowered and Facepunch community go fricking nuts trying to figure out the meaning of it.
The update included a new achievement and some weird sound files containing a lot of morse code. Currently, we have teams for decypherers attempting to break the complex code of beeps.
<3 Valve
Bit of an update on the present situation:
The files included in the update are all named "dinosaur_xxx", and are mostly sound files.
The sound files have been converted into picture files via an SSTV program (converts sound waves to images) and what we have are some very weird results.
Here are some of the converted sound file pictures:

I think Valve's up to something big if they're toying with us like this.
Also this was found in in the hex code for one of the files:

It's stuff like this that really makes Valve stand out from the rest :)
I love this stuff : )
didn't half-life2 episode2 have an update at the exact same time? maybe there is something to decipher in that too...
