maybe i'm old fashion but the coolest thing about video games is being taken to new worlds that i hadn't thought up and experiencing something exciting that the artists behind the game want to show me

Just installed this, and it warms my heart so much to see people doing this with our content. I think I'll be using this a lot, especially for reading game magazines. FYI author confirms no AI usage in the thread.

imagine if resident evil’s puzzle exploration gameplay had slightly more action-y combat, demons instead of zombies, and samurai shit instead of shotguns. just as schlocky, just pulling inspo from samurai movies, tokusatsu, and shaw bros instead of romero and carpenter.

it’s samurai resident evil if that gives you any idea of the tone

Oh, and if you didn’t know, Donnie Yen (Ip Man, John Wick 4) handled the choreography and Keita Amemiya (Zeiram, Hakaider, Cyber Ninja, Hagane) was responsible for the art direction and monster designs. Hard to imagine a more goated team.

Also, yes this is obviously derived from a 480p source. Hoping and praying that Capcom releases a higher quality native render of this someday.

Sadly, the PC version is lacking the final few seconds that introduce Jean Reno, I assume due to a rights issue. Someday I may edit that bit back in from a native rip of the lower quality PS2 asset. Here is an upload for a 4K version that took 4 hours to render: youtu.be/w9HAOCIiCB4?...

TIL that the opening of Onimusha 3 was directed by Takashi Yamazaki, director of Godzilla: Minus One! Sadly, nearly every upload of it is a stretched, GenAI abomination. So, I ripped and painstakingly upscaled what I consider the greatest video game cinematic ever from its 2007 PC release! Enjoy!

worth reading the article in detail, just fyi. they’re not talking about ai generated assets specifically, though there are some eyebrow-raising remarks in there about implementing ai into their workflows. i have no idea what they’re on about exactly tbh. still sucks. bsky.app/profile/coug...

1) This isn't about generating games or assets with AI, it's just about using automation tools for some processes like bug testing which isn't inherently bad 2) IGN should be embarrassed for this headline. It doesn't say "AI generation" as in generative AI, it's 世代, "generation" as in "time period"

stop throwing trans people under the bus. stop letting democrats get away with it. purge yourself of you “ick” around trans folks and fight for their (your) rights. if we go to the camps, we’ll only be keeping your bunk warm.

THIS is the republican strategy once again. weaponize your bigotry against you. “you don’t want healthcare! that means immigrants will get it too!” “you don’t want childcare! that means black people will get it too!” “you don’t want bodily autonomy! THAT MEANS TRANS PEOPLE WILL GET IT TOO!”

The Amityville Jordan (1979) @jackal27.bsky.social · 02/10/2026
oh look! ceding ground on trans rights also means sacrificing YOUR rights! “trans aren’t my rights, i’m not trans.” really? cause republicans sure seem to think they’re directly linked!

indie folks producing diy physical releases is one of the few video game things that’s been lighting my soul on fire! ALSO we should be distributing physical games on discs again rather than thumb drives!

I used to draw every day, but gave it up when I couldn’t stop comparing myself to the incredible illustrators in my feed. Last week I opened an old sketchbook after closing it for 10 years and was able to look over my final drawings and feel something other than shame. No matter what, I made it.

There is exactly one upside to generative AI. It has given me so, SO much appreciation for human-made art, at any level. It has elevated everything I see people putting out there, no matter their skill level, and given me so much confidence in the value of my own work.

he never even felt like a heel to me. he just such a presence. so inevitable. i think that warmth came through, even at his coldest. i could never boo him. all of his victories felt earned, no matter how he got them. he was a bastard y’know? THE bastard.
