Microsoft fired 9000 of its game developers in a single year, is largely responsible for the AI-pocalypse of right now and, oh yeah, still directly profits from ongoing genocides and wars of aggression. Happy Xbox Showcase Day!

posting about the xbox show and the games shown off there while it's happening is actively advertising for microsoft and i really would encourage you not do that given that they remain on the BDS boycott list.

June is gearing up to be one of the worst months for freelancing (and I had a particularly dry May as well). If you need words anywhere, I'm ready to write them. For my fellow freelancers and mutuals, please feel free to hit me up for brainstorming pitches, or a sounding board for your ideas!

Thought the repair on a broken button crt I found would be easy but this thing is caked up with dust and dead roaches so…I’ve gotta grab some canned air, gloves, and gator clamps for hospital work 🏥

A crt lies face down with its plastic casing removed showing its board and back of the crt. Trees show out a window in the background.

Keeping the PlayOnline client as the gateway to playing FFXI to this day is a shocking preservative move for an old corporate online game and there just isn’t anything like it

No need to be contrarian to not play Marvel Rivals. You can justify your cynicism by not wanting to give any capital to a massive corporation who recently has censored queer employees’ work, exploited theme park workers that don’t make livable wages, and has a streaming service on the BDS list.

It's clobberin' time?

This image shows a Fantastic Four-themed TV Plug & Play video game system by JAKKS Pacific. The controller is shaped and decorated with an orange rocky texture resembling The Thing's appearance, a member of the Fantastic Four. It features a joystick with a translucent "4" symbol on top, buttons for gameplay, and AV cables for connecting to a television. This design is highly stylized to represent Marvel's Fantastic Four franchise.

Setzer really said, “fuck it I’m gonna ball” after FF6

Screenshot from KH2: Setzer wears a purple robe over his shoulders and a purple button up underneath. Setzer is holding a wrestling-league belt for the in-world sport of “struggle”. Subtitles read: “a chance to take on our defending champion, Setzer!”

I think I'm happy to name Anthology of the Killer as my GOTY 2024. If you haven't played it you reallly really should! Has so much more to communicate in terms of culture, art, politics, humour and horror than any game I can remember playing. store.steampowered.com/app/3212530/... #GOTY2024

I feel like not enough people talk about how damn cool Fantasian's environments are! They're literally dioramas made in real life and scanned!

A screenshot from the game Fantasian by Mistwalker Studios. The screenshot shows a 3d character model in a scanned diorama of a rocky terrain.
