Finally got Croc on physical Switch by @argonautgames.com yesterday: 22 months, 2 days after ordering from @rockitgamesnow.bsky.social Never want to hear complaints about @limitedrungames.com taking forever on things ever again, this is by far the longest wait I've had for a current-system physical

One thing I recently discovered while at Gamescom is that @retrogamermag.bsky.social 's German edition isn't just translations of the EN content, it's a quarterly magazine with its own writers. 70% is unique for the DE market. (1/2)

I do wonder what the UK percentage would be now. A lot of Leave voters have died in the 10 years since the vote, and a lot of kids have entered voting age knowing not a lot more than "things have got worse in the last decade".

Spain win the World Cup, and Mbappe takes the Golden Boot for France. Good! Argentina deserve nothing after that shameful display following the England match's conclusion.

blog.playstation.com/2026/07/01/p... Utterly disgusting. Looks like new game purchases are coming to an end, retro-only from here on out. I am not buying DRM'd software that requires external activation and that can be removed remotely by the publisher.

For gaming specifically: Good job I prefer older stuff, may well now be the time that's the only realistic route for new experiences For general computing: awful news for when hardware breaks, as it inevitably does. Last PC I had 8 years and was fine but the OS obsolete: new one has been less solid

And Bulgaria wins! The best outcome I think, and a genuinely out-of-nowhere success. Guess we're going to Sofia next year #eurovision2026

Overlord氏 @overlord44.bsky.social · 16/05/2026

Public votes now rolling in. UK finishes with a single point (from the jury votes) - a shame, the song deserved more than that. We finish last as a result... though we're not the only country to get 0 from the public, Germany and Belgium have as well #eurovision2026

Good job to Look Mum No Computer: song was decent and is quirky enough that it won't be forgotten. Might be in with a decent shot of a decent table place this year - we won't win, but left side of the board is reasonable. #eurovision2026

Overlord氏 @overlord44.bsky.social · 16/05/2026

Initial thoughts: * Love Germany's outfits * Ukraine's song was very good * Australia was very good as well, I can see why they're one of the favourites.

Artemis from Sailor Moon sitting on a table as he wears an earpiece saying "Heard you loud and clear, scouts!". He is referencing the plushie that is seen in the Houston Mission Control Center during the takeoff and journey of the Artemis II spacecraft.

The hottest of takes (apparently): not a terrible idea. Taking drudgery out of work is exactly the sort of thing LLMs are supposed to be for; this project actually succeeded where 25 years of prior efforts haven't: playable EN Segagaga. The tools exist for another translation,but I doubt anyone will

The amount Nintendo's managed to shift of these is staggering considering how there's still fuck-all on it that you can't already get on Switch (Bananza and MAYBE Mario Kart World aside). I'll probably get a Switch 2 at some point this year but I'm in no immediate rush.

Nik was one of my oldest and closest friends, I'm stunned by this news, it's a terrible blow. He was a wonderful person and I always enjoyed our meeting up at least once a year ever since we started that in 2003, and I was a regular in his Twitch streams. I will miss him immensely.

It's currently £20 cheaper to buy a PS5 Slim Digital and a disk drive than it is to buy a regular PS5 Slim - does anyone know if there's any actual difference between the two once the drive is connected?
