I know that everything is expensive and that our wallets are stretched thin. However, I just don't buy any arguments that games are expensive now. I just finished SNES Aladdin for the Nth time with my daughter in 1h total...ONE hour! How much did it cost back then? Check comments for the answer:

With the new free update just out, I'm pretty darn happy to have snagged this physical copy for 25$CAD. Might not be amongst the best Bethesda games out there (debatable) but I'll definitely get my money's worth. #physicalmedia #xbox

I just finished Aladdin on the SNES. It took me about 2h. It's crazy when you think that back in the day, a game was about 60-70$ but you had under 5h of playtime (in some cases). Now games give you hundreds of hours and you can buy them full price for 80$

OK! Just watched "10 big games that(...) part 2" from @gameranx.com.web.brid.gy. Called the Rabbids a rip-off of the Minions. Not the first time I hear this from different sources. HOWEVER, Rayman R. Rabbids was out on the Wii in 2K6 while the 1st Despicable Me was out in 2K10. Who ripped off who?

Dude!! I want to play N.O.W. While I don't disagree with some criticism regarding the voice acting choices, I'm not big enough on 40k's lore to care too much about it. I'm pumped about the upcoming release and I can't wait.

1 year ago, I reluctantly moved out of Oregon. The hardest decision of my life. Leaving my best friends behind and one of the most beautiful states I've been in. I am proud to say my daughter was born downtown Portland. It is frustrating to see him attack one of the most peaceful places in the US.

Important article from GamesRadar about patents in games industry While I understand the use of patents overall, especially when it comes to industrial design. Patenting gameplay features is murky territory to me. Does it push devs to innovate? Or hinders their ability to create? What do you think?

Baldur's Gate 3 publishing lead says patents like the controversial ones Nintendo has secured amid its Palworld lawsuit "are too often used in bad faith"

The patents could reshape other developers' games forever

As I'm playing all these video games, I'm thinking to myself: "Why is walking still a thing (when stamina isn't involved)...why do I have to trigger the run? Why my character isn't running ALL the time? Who would want to go through levels or map at a veeeeeery slow pace?" Enlighten me

Interesting article. I personally cannot state enough how much I appreciate my series X. I haven't opened my PS5 in at least a year (yikes). If the next Xbox has Steam support, backward comp. and a similar purchase plan as Xbox all access, count me in! @xbox.com @xboxp3.bsky.social

Now that I'm done with G2, I've decided to end G1 once and for all (although I'll go back to it for some giant bosses). That's Fortress protecting the power sources. The bugs barely made it inside the inner walls...L.O.V.E. that game. 431 days in the yard @xbox.com @xboxp3.bsky.social @obsidian.net

Finished what the excellent Grounded 2 has to offer for now. Phase 1 of my Brookhollow resort is underway! Although I'm not a big fan of the new control layout, it is such a good upgrade from the previous. Stay tuned for more Brookhollow Resort updates! @xbox.com @xboxp3.bsky.social @obsidian.net

Been playin' Gears 1 Reloaded. Damn it's good! It's hard to believe this game is 20 y/o. Shows it's age in some areas. The cutscenes and dumb squad AI are some of them BUT man is this campaign solid. I'm also glad they reworked the colors, can't stand the desaturated era of gaming.

Been playin' Grounded 2. Yes, I'm addicted. I do have some comments tho, Obsidian if you read this, what's the most efficient way to get those comments to you? Owise, it's FANTASTIC. Also! Being from MTL, I am so proud Eidos MTL contributed to this masterpiece. @obsidianent.bsky.social @xbox.com

OG D1 booklet. This is the first post with insights into my collection. D1 redefined and 4ever shaped my understanding of games and my future career. Interestingly, D2 was the reason I stopped playing multiplayer games altogether, but that's a story for another day. Remaster? @xboxp3.bsky.social

Original Diablo 1 booklet. As a kid, I was convinced the only reason our 486 was able to run was because of the faster disk drive...LOL

Note the "Coming in 1997" at the bottom right corner. Man I'm old...

I don't know how many times I sat down to draw inspired looking warriors from this illustration.

Should I be ashamed to have switched Clair Obscur's difficulty to "Story"? Man, I just cannot get those timing right. I really s**k!

Am I seeing double?? Is this real. 42$ for an Amiibo. Ok! This is in Canadian $$...but still. Can someone confirm the US price for me please Nintendo...you really think you'll sell Amiibos at half the price of a game??

TODAY is a big day. It's the early release of TEMPEST RISING! Folks I'm so excited about this one. The demo was killer, the full version is installing on my modest PC. If you're a C&C fan, or just into RTSs, check out Tempest Rising. @tempestrts.bsky.social store.steampowered.com/app/1486920/...
