iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

That “AI-generation game engine” quote has been hideously mistranslated. What Capcom actually said is that it’s making new Lost Planet

Reagan’s pep talk & his wrinkly jowls made me quit BLOPs Cold War within 15mins. Uninstalled it and everything. Monumentally off-putting

Finished & really enjoyed Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy. Loved the setting and the timeline jumping, but I don’t ever need to see another sunlight & mirror puzzle. Anyway, it’s good & you should play it

Opened NBA The Run for the first time since the big update. Greeted by this image and A Tribe Called Quest’s Award Tour! That’s how you get my attention!

I should’ve been bugging my mum to take me to Glastonbury, instead of constantly nagging her to drive me to the newsagents for football stickers. Embarrassed for 11-year-old me

Drop an album that was important to you when you were 19. I loved everything The Neptunes touched. Justified sounded so fresh and caught many people off guard. We’re allowed to like JT etc.? This & NERD’s In Search of were huge for me

Close enough to regular Monopoly that I think I know what I’m doing, different enough that I definitely don’t! Doesn’t help that it’s upside down

I dunno about an “origin” game - a daft concept - but NBA Live ‘97 was the first to really consume me. I was playing games in the 8-16 bit eras, but they were toys that I would flit between. I wasn’t playing Alex Kidd as an 8yo and thinking “I’m a gamer now”
