I used to play Halo 2 all the time, still have my old Xbox and disc, I should dust it off and give it a go.

I came to terms with getting old a very long time ago. Being able to play games at a high level requires hand to eye coordination and dexterity that sadly degrade as you age. It’s not surprising that top players are younger. It’s exciting to hear that a younger generation is picking up a game from my early adulthood. What’s even more wild are the ones competing in games like Tetris, a game from my childhood.

The first game I ever beta tested.

Probably pretty low. Firmament was released a year ago and still doesn’t have the PS5 version even though it’s listed as a platform.

This is some exciting news! Years ago I got interested in making my own game and went through many of his tutorials to get a handle on Unity. Eventually I lost interest and stopped working on it. After hearing about Godot I had gotten interested in trying again but never got around to even installing the software. Maybe this will finally get me motivated to get back into it!

Seriously! So many terrible adaptations. It’s refreshing to see really good shows based on games. It also doesn’t hurt that shows like “The Last of Us” and “Fallout” are based on story driven games so there is already a lot of good story to build off.

Because it’s not releasing on PC?

Glad they escaped that shit show of a company.

I see what you did there.

So glad I took the recommendation to go into this game blind. Really wish I could wipe my memory and play it again for the first time.

I met him briefly at Blizzcon '09, seemed like a fun guy, he was out with other Blizzard folks and I bought them all a round.

One thing I remember the most about his days at Blizzard was even through all the hatred thrown his way he seemed to stay engaged with the community discussions. Something I think has been missing since I quit playing 6 or 7 years ago.

It’s also on the PS+ game library. I just found out about the game today and was happily surprised to find it already available to me.
