Been tempted by the several recent Metaphor discounts. But keep telling myself I can wait longer for a deeper one while I play Balatro.



Bungie’s Oni was really good for the era. Right before halo and when they were still releasing games for Mac. Think I still have that disc in storage somewhere alongside my Mac copy of Halo CE.



Having read the article, this sounds cool. But I can’t find the code to look at. Am I too dense or was it posted exclusively to Twitter (which I’ve blocked on my network)?


My list of multiple hundreds/thousands of hours include, in no particular order;

  • Minecraft (unknown, been playing since browser alpha demo)
  • Skyrim (600)
  • Rocket League (4000)
  • Fall Guys (1500)
  • Stardew Valley (unknown, play multiple saves a year on different platforms)
  • Vampire Survivors (400)
  • No Man’s Sky (1200)

Replaying Undertale since it’s been a few years. This game still holds up and still makes me emotional in most ways. Forever worth recommending.


STOP MAKING WHITE RUBBER THUMBSTICKS (these look more gray, but my point still stands).


Undertale, Celeste, Katamari, Syonara Wild Hearts, Shadow of the Colossus, Metal Gear Solid, Persona 4G, Persona 5R




I disagree, Sony’s feature is fundamentally different. It allows developers to create quick-load shortcuts for different activities in a given game. Like having multiple open world objectives/missions where you can choose which one to continue from the system menu. Microsoft’s feature is all about resuming where you were directly as if you put the system to sleep with that game running.


That’s a different feature. Resume Activity is just a developer-dependent shortcut that’s integrated into the system menu. Quick resume is saving a snapshot of ram to disk and loading it up as needed per-application. Different goals entirely.


Nice! I’ve been loving focus modes on iOS, it’s a real game changer when coupled with geofencing and calendar events and other automation. Glad more people will be able to utilize this!


Konami doesn’t deserve your money. Buy it used if possible.




Given the share price has fallen so hard, I won’t be surprised if Ubisoft just lays off most the workforce anyways.


This is why you don’t preorder! Don’t pay extra to get the game early when they’ll launch it early anyways if sales are too low!


Late to the party. Generic designs. Boring uninspired gameplay that did nothing to advance the genre, and basically no marketing. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was just a tax-loss project by the 8th year of development.



Gran Turismo 4
Dirt Rally 2 Forza Horizons 4

And the godking itself, Burnout 4 Revenge and its understudy Burnout 3.

Bonus point to Extreme-G and G2.

I’m also going to mention Generally. It was a tiny game with a small dedicated community but gods damn if it wasn’t just super fun to make maps and play community created events/maps/contests.


Well, I feel a bit better getting my 7900 XTX then even if the price was a bit of a gut punch. It’s been a rock solid replacement of my 3090 for gaming and general Linux performance and stability. Guess I’ll be sticking with this for a few years till AMD decides to compete on high end again.


I think you mean “they jumped the shark cards”.

It’s not like they care anyways, it’s all just a live service now because they’re raking in the cash. I’ve resigned to probably not being able to play this series again at this point.


Which is extremely ironic because Fall Guys has the epic overlay that includes perfectly fine and working friends connection with any platform, including switch, PlayStation, epic launcher, and steam friends list. We play weekly. Why doesn’t every EGS game do this?

Edit: That is to say, a game launched via steam and on consoles works just fine without EGL.


Recommend making an image of it as disc rot and degradation will be a thing. DVD shelf life is pretty wide at 30-100 years.


I feel like you don’t understand how running a business works or being a major platform creator works…
