iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Still one of the saddest, most intricate storylines I’ve ever seen in a game. I often wonder if this was George R. R. Martin or Hidetaka Miyazaki’s doing. #Ranni #EldenRing

And yet they scream aloud about Sharia Law

There’s definitely no way this is a problem.

Any time this quote is summoned, I grow wings.

Used the Switch 2 camera with Elden Ring tonight and I was impressed by its live transcription of voice chat, adjustable game window size, accessibility options, and avatar choices. Surprised by how useful it was when coordinating a dungeon raid tbh.

I wish New Zealand wasn’t beholden to the Coca-Cola monopoly. Everywhere you go it’s the same crappy options, and you can rarely get Diet Coke. It’s only Coke Zero, which is gross. Diet Coke is, for lack of a better way to describe it, drier(?), crisper?

I always end up getting some wired HORI controller while they still make them so I'm not screwed by dormant controller batteries having died in the intervening years.

Yeah but at least the Bonesaw Merchants own Superman now.

An official Altern-8 mask by Mark Archer, one of the godfathers of #technology, now graces my wall. Beauty.

When Pete is tried for treason and gets the firing line, same deal?

What I really like about Xbox is the ability to play this now on my current console, instead of having to boot up a PS3 and find the controllers, etc.

Sincere question: Is he 6’ tall yet?

Time to give this another shot.

I wish I had —what— $250 (eyes watering) for one of those suckers.

One of these days I’ll get over Crimson Desert’s bad control scheme and play it and marvel at what I’ve been missing all these years.

Johnny Depp has one English accent doesn’t he? Ebenezer looks to modify it slightly, but they’re all a variation on Jack Sparrow, with varying degrees of wobble.

Just had dinner with a Kiwi gamedev who asked to meet up and grab a bite while he asked me about Team Ninja and Itagaki. Definitely an interesting conversation which gave me an opportunity to talk about my friend on what’s almost the first anniversary of his passing.

I miss the days where you could put this photo on an album cover and sell it.

This stupid account @tvinsider.com just spoiled the hell out of the new episode of Slow Horses when all I was looking for was the current season’s cast. I searched for it and Google showed me this. People die in the series all the time but what I cropped is the CHARACTER’S FACE. Zero chill.

I wanna play that but don’t do much online. Too many distractions so I need to be able to put the controller down and walk away. I don’t wanna go afk on anyone.

God forbid people have to wait less than what they’re currently used to in delivery times. May I remind everyone what the ‘mail’ was like 15 years ago?

Watched the second episode of #Lucky, where I got to watch Annette Bening and typecast perma-douche William Fichtner struggle with perhaps the worst lines they’ve ever read in their lives.

Trump will grant the infected asylum per orders of Vladimir.

I wanna meet the guy who proposes with this.

It's not white enough for you, tbh.

Another #BeastieBoys video that —despite its lo-fi origins— still should be on blu-ray and digital.

Like we’ve never waited for a Kickstarter before. For the record I have no skin in the game. I’m just sharing the message. Telling me you canceled your order doesn’t affect me either way.

Update 55: EGM COMPENDIUM UPDATE · The Electronic Gaming Monthly Compendium

Josh & Mollie and the EGM team have sent out an update about the EGM Compendium. Like anything in the production end of things—whether it’s music, print, game publishing—these things take time and often encounter some bumps along the way. www.kickstarter.com/projects/egm...

First and foremost, we want to apologize for the lack of communication over the past weeks.  We have been working to resolve problems with wrapping up this project and wanted to wait until we kne...

It’s the green screeniest thing too, it’s almost impossible to critique on a human level.

Godzilla’s ‘popcorn cavity.’

A great way to put your sound system to the test.

Sugar is the weirdest Apple TV show. I like it, but am not sure what the point of it is.

Trump’s bringing in Musk for the fix. Bury them.
