I've had this tab open for probably a year at this point because I never seem to have time to actually tinker with it. But @iznaut.com made her windfuck.ing page with it and it's hosted on Nekoweb or Neocities. It reminds me of a simpler time and I love it. iznaut.itch.io/bimbo

The hilarious thing is that I’d bet it’s because the Reddit screenshot of the “issue” is using Euro instead of USD so it shows 482K there even though the actual text says 550K. www.reddit.com/r/videogames...

I knew a kid growing up that every year after his tenth birthday his parents let him unlock one swear every year that he wouldn’t get in trouble if he said it.

The second project I’m working on at Scaffold. As one of the original people who got a negative time on Walkout for the IAYB demo, I have been absolutely demolishing these levels. You can guarantee that these have all been Sicko Certified (TM). I can’t wait for everyone to play.

I keep wanting to post lyrics from the new Weezer album like it’s 1997, 2003, 2008, 2012, 2016, 2019, or 2023 but there’s so many fucking bangers on this new record I can’t decide which one is my favorite.

IMO, KCs are just digital games. There’s no difference really in sharing a KC and using something like a family plan or game sharing for a digital entitlement. The game still doesn’t exist except for on those servers which are beholden to platform owners.

Ian Berridge @kliqimb.bsky.social · 31/07/2026
Whoops! That’s my bad on the Vita. I thought they said you *couldn’t* redownload your games. That actually makes me feel better lol. The point still remains though that I don’t think MSFT/Sony/Nintendo keep those CDNs available until the heat death of the universe.

Ian Berridge @kliqimb.bsky.social · 31/07/2026
They do kill the eventual second hard market though. They are bound to the whims of digital storefronts existing just like a normal digital game. If a Key Card format existed on Vita, for instance, it would no longer be usable in 2028. It’s not really a solution to used games or preservation IMO.

Ian Berridge @kliqimb.bsky.social · 31/07/2026
I imagine because other than first party games, most of their releases are Key Cards which is effectively a digital entitlement wrapped on an SD Card. Obviously some disc based games are also just basically “please download the update” discs but I’d still say the majority have a version of the game.

Drones absolutely RIPPED when it came out. Really a return to form after The Second Law kinda missed for me (even if I respect the idea of “We’re gonna make an electronic album w/o a Mac”. I’ve just now realized though I’m TWO albums behind. Simulation was my last. It’s been a rough few years lol.

Is FH6 getting a physical? FH5 didn’t but it released like five years later. Gears is a cool get for the collection because it’s actually ONLY available on physical on PS5.

I read up on it a bit. Kinda interesting turn of events that they’re in. Might support them just to see if an experiment like this can even be successful. Curious to see how long of a tail it can have and how much content will exist in the future.

So I see there’s a mount that’s currently free but will cost $8 after August 31st. Are we sure there’s no gacha monetization? Is there still gacha and it’s all just in-game currency or there’s literally no pulls? I just got punked by the newest Ragnarok game, so this might be exactly what I need.

I actually love the poetry of Spain winning this even though I’m a Messi fan. I cannot fathom a 44-year old Messi playing another WC unless he just wants the record. The passing down of the crown to his Barca teammate, Spain now going undefeated in both finals. It’s great storylines.

Ian Berridge @kliqimb.bsky.social · 19/07/2026
Most Ardent Argentina Fan Take: Both of Spain’s WC wins have been against 10-men. Fake trophies. Put up the asterisk. (I do not believe this.)

We overindexed yesterday. 10 goals in one game means the next 3-4 important matches will be 0-0 draws to PKs.

You could also try The Last Remnant which is a SaGa game in all but name (made by all the same people) and has a more The Lost Odyssey adjacent battle system that’s a little more involved. In TLR you can not talk to someone in Chapter 1 that looks you out of beating the true ending lmao.

Ian Berridge @kliqimb.bsky.social · 19/07/2026
The Battle System is also sort of hybrid ATB so it’s not quite regular old jRPG. But at the end of the day you’d know pretty quickly if you’d fuck with it. SaGa is all about making insanely broken combos and builds and working against esoteric combat systems that kinda punish you.

Ian Berridge @kliqimb.bsky.social · 19/07/2026
the “Spark” system. Basically the way you learn new attacks is that randomly in battle your character gets “inspired” and suddenly you’re doing some insanely cool new move you’ve never seen before. It also influenced by who you have in battle. There’s like dozens of recruitable characters.

Ian Berridge @kliqimb.bsky.social · 19/07/2026
SaGa games, particularly Frontier which is probably the most accessible, are all deeply woven interconnected stories. It’s the progenitor to things like Octopath in that way. From a Battle System perspective it uses two opposing rock-paper-scissor mechanics around weapon types. Then, there’s…

Wait… brain blast. Have you ever played a SaGa game??? If not go download SaGa Frontier Remastered right now.
