9 albums that shaped my music tastes

Matt @becausebecause.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

Okay, these 9 games got me into playing more games like these games (i would have liked to have squeezed Yakuza on PS2 as a tenth)

I mentioned gnocchi to a neighbour who is probably in her 60s and she'd never heard of it and claimed it must be some new thing younger folks have come up with. Gnocchi was invented in ancient Rome, and the potato version we know now was in the 16th Century..

Just played the Dynasty warriors 3 remastered demo, this is exactly what I wanted! Same music, dody voice acting but nicer graphics, increased frame rate and resolution. Then I find out there's no physical release in the West. Argh!!!

(Context: AI) I feel like we all need to agree on a better analogy for AI, such as I wish we could put the turd back in a rich man's ass but that ass just keeps on churning out more and more shit

Remember when The Orville season 1 was a bit too daft comedy and toned it down for seasons 2 and 3 and it was much better for it? Strange New Worlds has gone in the opposite direction.

After a brilliant episode of Strange New Worlds last week, I see we are back to the gimmicky silliness again. Me and my partner couldn't watch anymore after about 7 minutes in.

Wow, this is the immersive Shenmue 3 experience I was hoping for, to taste that delicious black onion every 5 minutes just like Ryo does himself #Shenmue3 #Shenmue

Day one edition of Shenmue 3 with edible giant black onion

I don't actually recommend anybody watches this but it was a gripping show at the time!

I see The Proclaimers have a new album coming out and they must have figured the only way they can get media coverage is by being transphobic little shits.

Strange New Worlds actually delivered a non gimmicky episode this week, and it's a great one at that!

I can't be the only one to have seen this "It happens on PS5" and immediately think this right now with Sony

My dad showed me this birdhouse model of a coffee shop and I borrowed it and recreated it in Blender. Why? I don't know, it was fun, is that weird? 😅 I found a way to use it in my game as a literal model of a "coffee shop" so it's not a waste of time either now.

Getting really fed up with being followed by or my posts liked by accounts that are allegedly people in war torn countries begging for money. Is this the new scam?

My game isn't going to break new ground or do anything you haven't seen in adventure games before, that was never my intention. But I really wanted to make the best game I've ever made, and I think I just might do that.

Everybody Loves Raymond. He gets a PS2, I've worked out NTSC only release Okagi, Jak and daxter, but what's the third game, Dark Alliance?? And yes, when him and his bro play on it they don't use the analog sticks, these actors weren't gamers..

Sometimes, I'll see a Harry Potter Blu-ray complete film collection second hand, think about how I wouldn't mind seeing those films again, instantly get a sick feeling of JK Rowling ick and leave it well alone 🤷

I lost the person's post with them understanding the ol' Digimon screenshot now they're at that age, and I had made my own version (although I'm actually 44 but eh)

I suspect this AI artwork physical release has nothing to do with the band but you gotta feel sorry for hardcore Guns N' Roses fans who have to own everything, because if they hate AI, will they draw the line here and refuse to buy this? I think I would, if it was me.

Saw people saying Sony won't fail with no discs because PS5 Pros are selling out due to GTA VI, um are you saying Sony will be successful if it's just GTA players buying the console because they won't be buying much else if it took GTA to make them buy a console in the first place.

Someone on the Adventure Game Studio engine forum said this to me recently and it made my day! Comments like this make it worthwhile making games.

"If it's any consolation, finding Thomas Tew on the eShop is what compelled me to message you on social media and find out about AGS. Now, if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have found this cool community and trying to make my own game!"

A comparison of my old lift transition, to the new one. I had to do some tricks to make a fake reflection of the character on the lift wall!

I knew this guy replying to me and one other on Pushsquare's website's post about Crimson Desert would be very wrong and here we are 3 months later.

"This game is not going to be on sale for a while. This year it will stay full price and most of next year will be the same. I love the constant updates and even more to do. These updates are another reason there will not be a sale anytime soon. They also made double their budget so a sale is not needed. Why give a sale when you can add more content, YouTube and Social media sharing will keep the game selling. No sale anytime soon."
