DF Direct Weekly #245: Half-Life 3 Steam Machine Launch Game? Skyrim Switch 2 Lag Patch, Marathon!A critical mass of rumours is strongly suggesting that Half-Life 3 will be a launch title for Steam Machine - but how does that work when the RAM crisis is making any kind of hardware launch so challenging? Meanwhile, Oliver pops in to talk about an actual patch for the woeful Switch 1 port of Batman: Arkham Knight, while Tom makes a similarly cameo-sized appearance to talk about Skyrim's anti-latency patch - which isn't quite what we were hoping for. And that's just the tip of the iceberg for what is an absolutely colossal Direct which will also be the last we produce in the year of our lord 2025. 0:00:00 Introduction 0:02:33 News 1: Is Half-Life 3 a Steam Machine launch game? 0:14:45 News 2: Batman: Arkham Knight patch brings Switch 2 boosts 0:26:28 News 3: Skyrim Switch 2 patch improves input lag - at a cost 0:34:57 News 4: Ayaneo announces Strix Halo uber-handheld 0:45:56 News 5: Bungie exhibits Marathon in new video 0:58:46 News 6: Avatar gets DLSS Frame Generation and Ray Reconstruction 1:14:27 News 7: Blur Busters releases TestUFO 3.0 1:22:42 News 8: Presenting the Digital Foundry 2025 Community Awards! 1:44:13 Supporter Q1: Will future handhelds be fast enough to run path-traced games? 1:47:30 Supporter Q2: Are there realistic alternatives to UE5 for AAA games? 1:52:39 Supporter Q3: What do you think of Mega Man: Dual Override? 1:54:25 Supporter Q4: What are the best graphics of 2025 on low-end hardware? 2:00:31 Supporter Q5: How would you set up an Xbox 360 or PS3 in the modern era? 2:04:55 Supporter Q6: Should AI write supporter questions for DF Direct?
