TimeSplitters: Future Perfect, Xbox Free Radical Design, 2005 It's an absolute travesty that the TimeSplitters license has lay dormant for nearly 20 years. Embracer can do one for closing Free Radical again last year, torpedoing the new game that was reportedly in the works.

Metroid Zero Mission, GameBoy Advance Nintendo R&D1, 2004 Quite possibly my favourite remake. Metroid Zero Mission took the original game and brought it up to modern standards and created a masterpiece.

What a race! Petit Le Mans always delivers. Some questionable driving standards and a new record for FCY/Red Flags, but an amazing finish nonetheless. Looking forward to driving this on LMU next weekend, 10 hours of madness.

So far it feels to me like they added more stuff to try and create an experience with a bit more depth, without addressing any of the fundamental flaws of the original, and it falls a bit flat as a consequence.

I really enjoyed it, best one in the series, imo.

I've been playing Gears of War: E-Day for the last week or so. The updates to the movement and combat in general really make the game feel a lot more dynamic. A lot less 'stop-&-pop'. I'm having a good time with it.

Anything in particular that doesn't seem to have one that maybe should?

You sure? I've got a mythics for a couple of games that aren't backwards compatible (Lost, Wanted, Fight Night Round 3, etc)

0GS achievements contributed towards 100% completion iirc (it's based on number of them not amount of GS). So, theoretically it /should/ give a mythic.

6th Gen Bliss @6thgenbliss.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

Lost is like a 2 hour completion, so not that one.

Looks like it's still only a partial rollout by SEGA, I tried all my stuff again and only Shenmue I + II and Yakuza Like a Dragon worked. Yakuza is Play Anywhere though, which is nice.

There's easy a version of me that just had a Final Fantasy game in each slot.

I loved the Wanted game, it was fun. I didn't see the movie until a couple of weeks ago, so it didn't feel like a tie-in at the time, so maybe that has something to do with it.

I'd forgive all their poor choices in a heartbeat if they'd just release Halo Wars 2 on Steam.

With Activision getting Halo now, does that mean we're going from one bad Halo game a decade, to a bad Halo game annually?

Yeah. My biggest concern would probably be the frame pacing, it's pretty rare that 30fps frame caps are implemented correctly on PS5 without wonky frame times, which feels especially awful in first person.

6th Gen Bliss @6thgenbliss.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

That's a shame. I would have thought it would run better than that on PS5.

Sounds about right. ShopTo seem to have it on back order, don't think it's actually in stock anywhere, though.

6th Gen Bliss @6thgenbliss.bsky.social · 19/09/2026

It's in stock on the Iam8bit site, no idea what shipping to over here would be though.

I guess it all comes down to discoverability after that, I hit 30-35 and stopped paying attention to the scene anywhere near as much as I did prior to that. Embarassing really, when you consider I call myself a musician.

I've been buying up cheap CDs the last few months, prices are ridiculously low now! Good shout on Bandcamp though, I'd forgotten about that place.

How does one music these days if you abhor Spotify and other streaming bollocks? I've got a 160GB iPod Classic that needs filling.

It's getting so exhausting finding stuff that, is at least on the surface, a cool thing, only to find out that it's filled with AI fuckery and barely works under the hood. This is why we can't have nice things.

Big fan of Nintendo finally realising Metroid is good and supporting it again. Do F-Zero next. Don't even care if they go down the Star Fox route and just remake GX.

6th Gen Bliss @6thgenbliss.bsky.social · 08/09/2026

Honestly, I think it's just Link that looks super off to me. The environments look decent enough, aside from being far too shiny and no AA.

6th Gen Bliss @6thgenbliss.bsky.social · 08/09/2026

It'll probably be perfectly fine from a gameplay standpoint, Nintendo rarely miss there, especially when you've got the OoT template to work from.
