Microsoft.

Let’s give DC to the company turning the most widespread OS into AI spyware.


Japan has one of the longest average lifespans in the world. If their artists are clocking out in their 50s, they are literally being worked to DEATH!


The question is what’s a Big Bertha doing in a ghost house?



A new DidYouKnowGaming video is imminent.



For some reason there is a disproportionate love for the tutorial world on Xbox 360. I guess a lot of the current generation of players got their start there.

I’m old. I started playing in alpha. We didn’t even have a food bar.



Nintendo watching a company they’re trying to sue out of existence expand into another category they don’t own:



Japan is a treasure trove of PC98 games and software of which the only surviving copy might be rotting in a pawn shop right now.




got bored of it pretty quickly.

This is why I’m waiting for the AMOLED Switch 2 or whatever the .5 console is. By then, all the evergreen games like Mario Kart World will be totally fleshed out. I bought a Switch after Mario Kart 8 had all the DLC and updates.







I still think Kart 64 is one of the best of the series, but I don’t get the prejudice against ghosts. :)


Nintendo: “Well, it’s obviously not our rushed production schedule or choosing to use cheaper parts… I wonder what it could be.”


Reminds me how you can effectively nullify all the secret agents in Evil Genius by building dozens of huts outside with locked doors that lead to dead end hallways rigged with pop-up dummies.

The fact that there’s a locked door entices them to waste time cracking it open. Once inside, they get jumped by a dummy and shoot it then become confused because it’s not real. Eventually they get so confused they leave the hut. They the AI’s pathfinding sees the same damn door which has locked itself again. Wash, rinse repeat.

Sometimes they get mad and start shooting the traps until they explode, which injures them and convinces them to just go home. Once they leave, rebuild the damaged hut and wait for the next secret agent.






You gotta light up the ground around your base. Like a few dozen blocks in every direction.



I appreciate them putting their money where their mouth is after delaying the game to next year.

Hope to see running gameplay soon.






People are like this with unannounced tech products and it’s annoying.

“The ‘Apple Car’ has been canceled.”

There never was an Apple Car! You can’t cancel something that never existed let alone ever got announced.


Waiting for a company to loudly raise their prices.

“YEEHAW!! Lord Trump is bravely losing to the Chinese so we’re passing that loss on to YOU!”



The question is, will Nintendo Accounts (the thing Nintendo made so you didn’t have to get a new type of account with every damn console) that already have the DLC be able to use it on the Switch 2 with the Switch 2 version of the game?

Technically, there shouldn’t be any meaningful reason why not. Aren’t the Switch 2 versions just asset upgrades? Maybe a wee bit of coding to adapt the existing software to newer hardware. So if they’re smart they’ll say “Yes.”

The best reason for a no would be that Nintendo will not have yet updated the assets that are included in the DLC. Meaning people who own the DLC would get to use them at a later date when the teams doing these ports have time to get to them.

The worst reason to say no would be “Buy them again, cucks.”



Blizzard successfully sidestepped the graphics wars and the inherent limitation of the Warcraft franchise by giving it a completely unique style that has never aged or been equaled.

Of all the bad things that have happened to Bizzard recently, losing Petras is definitely one of the worst.


That’s a start I guess, but the joy of their games is playing them on the phone.
