8) Touhou Koumakyou - The Embodiment of Scarlet Devil (2002, but I played the 2026 remaster) crazy how well classic Touhou holds up gameplay-wise, and the remaster is as faithful as you can get it's great to finally have these games available legally to players outside of Japan without import fees

prediction for SF6 Year 5 that's way too early and is in no way going to happen

101

Thomas Davis @cooltom.bsky.social · 27/08/2026

just heard GTA VI is capped at 30fps and won't have a performance mode

Thomas Davis @cooltom.bsky.social · 24/08/2026

7) Motorslice (2026) decent enough throwback to sixth-gen platformers, and the titular "motorslice" mechanic is fun to use the jank does weigh this game down though, it often feels like you're fighting the controls more than anything

Thomas Davis @cooltom.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

they can never make me hate you Team South America

Team South America from KOF XIV (Zarina, Nelson and Bandeiras)

Thomas Davis @cooltom.bsky.social · 10/08/2026

I don't even like SF6 like that but why is this the current state of the FGC

011

Thomas Davis @cooltom.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

6) Raccoin (2026) solid idea, taking those penny-pusher machines you'd see all the time as a kid and giving them the Balatro treatment but unfortunately it feels like it's missing a bit of the sauce that makes other roguelikes so addicting for me, it gets old faster than you'd hope

110

Thomas Davis @cooltom.bsky.social · 11/07/2026

5) Super Meat Boy 3D (2026) it's uhh...it's Super Meat Boy in 3D alright could only stomach the light world levels as after a certain point I just knew getting the dark world unlocked for later worlds would be a nightmare, let alone finishing those levels, but it's a solid platformer

Thomas Davis @cooltom.bsky.social · 26/06/2026

so I found another theory regarding Ghost Rider's team and it planted this lineup into my brain can the reveal just drop already I'm tired of second-guessing predictions

Thomas Davis @cooltom.bsky.social · 25/06/2026

there's not going to be a DOA7 you stupid slut

000

Thomas Davis @cooltom.bsky.social · 13/06/2026

these all come out on the 24th one hell of a blunt rotation

Thomas Davis @cooltom.bsky.social · 10/06/2026

reply with 🐱 and I'll give you a letter to list 4 of your favorite characters I got T Testament, Tina Armstrong, Tharja and Trunks

final prediction for Ghost Rider's team #marveltokon

Thomas Davis @cooltom.bsky.social · 20/05/2026

4) Slay the Spire II (2026, early access) yes I know it's cheating to put an early access game on here but I'd call STS2 fully featured enough as it is to warrant an inclusion phenomenal roguelike, you could lose hours at a time to it without realising and that's ok cause it's just that fun

Thomas Davis @cooltom.bsky.social · 10/05/2026

this will be our fourth reimagining of the original Star Fox, we've become exceedingly efficient at it

Thomas Davis @cooltom.bsky.social · 22/04/2026

so Rooflemonger had a source corroborate Tifa and Vega being in, but NOT Haggar or Gouken and IIRC the Vega/Sakura/Mika leak didn't say anything about the "newcomer" not being a guest I guess this might be it, then

110

Thomas Davis @cooltom.bsky.social · 16/04/2026

with regards to the two SF6 season 4 leaks that have been going around

110

Thomas Davis @cooltom.bsky.social · 05/04/2026

3) The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (2026) god damn did this movie bite off more than it could chew, felt like it prioritised cramming as many nods to different games as possible and some were handled better than others still a fun time though

100

Thomas Davis @cooltom.bsky.social · 26/03/2026

2) Poker Night at the Inventory (2010) might as well include this here; big ups to Skunkape for getting this re-released, it's a lovely poker sim with lovely character interactions even if Tycho's presence couldn't date it any more if it tried

Thomas Davis @cooltom.bsky.social · 20/03/2026

watching Rose's SFV story again after everything that's happened in SF6 lately

Thomas Davis @cooltom.bsky.social · 17/03/2026

Fatal Fury: AI slop in trailers and the Crown Prince's fuckbuddies in the base roster Tekken: promised a "back to basics" patch, came out with even more focus on brainless offensive play than ever before Street Fighter:

Thomas Davis @cooltom.bsky.social · 02/03/2026

1) Resident Evil: Requiem (2026) a lovely way to celebrate RE's 30th anniversary, highlighting the best bits of both the horror and action sides of the franchise it has a few hiccups here and there but overall, solid time

Thomas Davis @cooltom.bsky.social · 27/02/2026

mfw people make comments about Capcom vs. SNK 3 being "inevitable"

Thomas Davis @cooltom.bsky.social · 05/02/2026

RGG have already shown themselves willing to platform sex offenders AND they had this fuckstain come by their direct this is gonna be COTW 2: Sportswashing Boogaloo isn't it

Thomas Davis @cooltom.bsky.social · 02/02/2026

we love trans folk in this house

Thomas Davis @cooltom.bsky.social · 24/01/2026

if I had a nickel for every time a respected Japanese game developer decided to torch decades of goodwill by platforming a sex offender, I'd have two nickels which isn't a lot, but frankly it shouldn't have even happened once let alone twice in one year

the craziest part to all this is Epic barely even tried with the collab you're not getting actual characters from the Wizarding World, you're just getting generic skins in Hogwarts robes that can barely be customised there's not even a glider, the broom is a pickaxe
