New Blog Post: Why I Love Unfair Traps in Arcade Games People usually dislike hard memo traps in arcade games, or at best think they're "not that bad". I love them, though, and I think arcade games would be worse without them. Here's why: duckberet.com/blog/i-like-... (game: Violent Storm)

yet another day on this hell app reading an argument about optimal garegga rank management. god forbid any of these people step out of their normie PCB bubble for a bit and expand their horizons with an unjustly overlooked classic like sonic or metroid bsky.app/profile/fara...

INSTEAD OF SAYING: * Mayday, mayday! I'm hit! * Aargh! I'm going down. * That was one of ours! CONSIDER SAYING: * Hooray! I get to use the parachute * That was a good clean shot, Mobius 1 * I was planning to crash this plane anyway for insurance fraud so this works out for me.

Happy 40th anniversary to Metroid. A game of non-linear maze-like stages, dark Gigeresque designs, scary bosses & an orange clad hero who is revealed to be a heroine in the ending🤯

Between Star Fox and supposedly Ocarina, this is clearly the year of Nintendo releasing N64 games for a third time. Because Miyamoto's Rule of Threes demands it, there must be one more, which can only mean one thing: Doshin the Giant's comin' back and he's literally bigger than ever, baybee!!! 🫈

new rule: whenever a game gets remade, the developer is obligated to open source the original, which should be placed in a federally-maintained archive accessible online for free square enix will 100% try to argue in court that their game “Final Fantasy VII Remake” doesn’t count and it’ll be funny

A joke about excessive interruptions and handholding isn't funny when it's about a game that already has excessive interruptions and handholding.

screenshot of the youtube video, "Zelda but it's a modern game" The thumbnail contains a lot of unnecessary ui elements over the game.

My most personal video, yet. It combines gaming history with world history, as well as my first-hand personal experiences of living through those histories. It aims to discuss Fallout from a wholly different perspective. #gaming #retrogaming #crpgs #pcgaming youtu.be/Hi2D9xRjw7s

Panzer Dragoon turns 30 today! While Moebius did three illustrations for the Japanese version (one of which is unused), it was Sega's in-house artist Ryūichirō Kutsuzawa / 沓澤龍一郎 who painted the final illustrations.

A regulatory body should be allowed to block Sony's aquisition of Kadokawa, not for the monopoly concerns, but so that we don't have to see any more gamer posts that talk about it like this shit is about Elden Ring. The guy who's only seen Boss Baby of nerd economics
