    Sony is moving away from physical existence, will soon only exist on a higher plane of being

    I can hear Liquid Snake triumphantly announcing this. I'll check and see if Cam Clarke is on Cameo.

    Steam Summer Sale goes live, various titles discounted by varied amounts

    I made this topic as a guide. Also, the GOG Summer Sale is going on for another four days or so, and there's some worthwhile deals there too: Breath of Fire IV for $4.99 USD. Just Cause 2 Complete Edition for $1.99 USD. Resident Evil 1 Remake HD for $4.99 USD. Cold Fear for $8.25 USD. (I've...

    What's "Your Addiction" in Gaming?

    Not once a week, but I've posted frequently about Grand Theft Auto III and Mega Man games. I'm currently working on the Tightened Thrice mod for Grand Theft Auto III, which adds a higher difficulty (and more) to the missions. It's a nice way to revisit it. I haven't finished it yet, so I don't...

    Over the last few decades, all he's really lost is his angry sticker. TL;DR: Only people with 1,000,000 IQ notice these three changes!

    (Best Deals) Steam Summer Sale 2026

    It's finally here: The 2026 Steam Summer Sale! Any games you've found at really good discounts? @Kwyjor mentioned this one in the main thread. I remember people talking about it around release, but then, no one mentioned it again. Is it fun? Many people felt this was a solid game, so $4...

    Steam Summer Sale goes live, various titles discounted by varied amounts

    That's how I feel. I looked at my Steam Wishlist and felt these discounts looked familiar and unremarkable. I know I've kvetched about this the last few Summer/Winter Sales, so I'll be quiet.

    Where’d the time go?

    I get this deeply. I do feel the distance between my college years and now, though it doesn't feel as far off as you would think. I recall my time watching indie animators on Newgrounds improving their craft one video at a time. I remember the PS2 being the top console with tons of games...

    Super Mario 64 gets a brand new port on the Nintendo DS, brings support for full local multiplayer

    Any time SM64 gets some love, I'm appreciative. I miss the 90's, so SM64 news is a great way to get a nostalgia hit, and the addition of ad-hoc co-op is awesome. Kudos to the dev.

    I'm making a video game.

    I thought all social media was miserable. (Hot take, I know) I do agree that there was a huge difference in design philosophies starting with the 7th gen. The thing is, that was 20 years ago, and the industry has had all sorts of changes/adjustments since then. It doesn't make sense to stay...

    Chill thread

    I've been adjusting to a new work schedule. From time to time, I work on Grand Theft Auto III - Tightened Thrice (difficulty mod), and I plan to start memorizing a ton of stuff to prep for the Fall semester.

    The long awaited EarthBound Beginnings Remake romhack is now available after almost 2 decades in development

    If only I had the time. Though it's been a (very) long time, I feel that Mother 1 is a surprisingly interesting game. In particular, I appreciated the somber final segments. (.) Isn't the last major area notoriously grindy/difficult? I wonder how this fan remake handles it. Kudos to the dev(s)...

    Nintendo Direct June 9, 2026 roundup - Ocarina of Time remake announced, Kingdom Hearts IV trailer

    I've fallen so far behind in so many franchises that I don't see myself making it out of the backlog. With Mario, I left off at Super Mario Galaxy. With Zelda, I felt off at Twilight Princess. With Kingdom Hearts, I felt off at Birth by Sleep. With Resident Evil, I left off at Resident Evil 5...

    Nintendo Direct June 9, 2026 roundup - Ocarina of Time remake announced, Kingdom Hearts IV trailer

    I got burned out after Birth by Sleep. (Played through 1, CoM, 2, and BbS.) I didn't play the 358/2 Days, but that one seemed interesting. I thought 3 was supposed to be the conclusion (Like Metal Gear Solid 4, yeah?), but sure enough, KH4 was announced in 2022. Protip: If you play 1, CoM, and...

    Nintendo Direct June 9, 2026 roundup - Ocarina of Time remake announced, Kingdom Hearts IV trailer

    I've written about this in the past, and my feeling was that it all came down to one design flaw. My young self spent ages going in circles. It was probably one of those, "I give up, I'll just Game Over" moments that probably got me to stumble into the passage. Now, it's still burned into my...
