"In this video you can see how Udo Kier becomes Yuri. It was taken from the Red Alert 2 Collectors DVD."

RIP Udo Kier, what an unimaginable loss. here is a Philips CD-i infomercial he did in the 1990s www.youtube.com/watch?v=iTSF...

Grateful to have grown up watching Udo Kier being creepy as hell in movies.

RIP Udo Kier. it was fucked up when that future Yakuza guy sliced you up with a laser whip like a human tomato in Johnny Mnemonic (1995)

MSNBC Grandmas in Skechers seamlessly reclaiming the frog from 4chan Nazis in about six weeks has gotta be the political upset of the century.

Two weeks ago we lost a giant of the movie posters world, Renato Casaro. Today we lost a modern Master of movie posters: DREW STRUZAN. I can guarantee you have at least seen 5 of his posters in your lifetime. The man has put his art on some of the most popular movie franchises (Indiana Jones, 1/4

The Japanese Mario 64 official strategy guide is an incredible thing. "Can we make little hand-made dioramas of all the levels?" "Sure, why the hell not."

Shiren 6 is 25% off, and Shiren 5 is 80% off on steam right now! 4$ for Shiren 5 is a great deal, and this may be the largest sale for Shiren 6 so far.

This afternoon, in addition to Charlie Kirk, there was a school shooting. Bullets don't know and don't care if you are a Republican or Democrat. It is time for Republicans and Democrats to find a way to work together to reduce gun violence. www.wcpo.com/us-news/crim...

VIRTUA COP 2 DREAMCAST AM R&D DEPT #2 2000

There's a relatively untapped mine of sublime vibes in OG Xbox demo discs. Every one I've tried over the last few years has had banger tuneage, sometimes hidden away in the demos section of Microsoft Games Studio games too.

This is Leo. He is patiently waiting for this guy to throw the ball. Gonna be here a while. 13/10 (TT: twogoldenleos)

This week's Arcade Archives game is MACH BREAKERS: NUMAN ATHLETICS 2. This is not a drill, this is the game's first home port and it absolutely rules. www.famitsu.com/article/2025...

Always nice to be randomly reminded why Ryu Umemoto was one of the best unsung game composers of his generation (overseas, at least). Genuinely impressive and a testament to his sheer mastery over Yamaha FM synths that the strength of his compositions still shines even when translated to MIDI. 😌

It was so much fun speaking with David & Jordan! I can't thank them enough for such a great time. Hear about what I do & catch up on some news: It's a really wonderful podcast with great people. & if you have any questions after listening just ask (I can never remember names when I'm talking, lol)

ICYMI, @yuvi.app partially preserved Biohazard: The Operations, a previously-lost Biohazard keitai game! It heavily relied on missing SD card data, but Yuvi painstakingly recreated the data from scratch, resulting in all missions and online leaderboards being functional! (1/2)

We were going to do another big marketing stunt for THE TOXIC AVENGER UNRATED. Instead, Toxie, whose life was upended by crushing medical bills, has joined forces with Undue Medical Debt to erase at least $5 million in un-payable medical debt for those who need it most. Learn more:

this is a CRAZY deal. Shiren is one of the best roguelike series out there. Pick this up, oh my god

It's Minnesota State Fair time! It's time for Minnesotan folk art! Here, for example, is Saturn Devouring His Corn, in the seed art category!

Since @jeffgerstmann.com has been on a Katamari bender, I thought I'd remind people there's a really rad pre-launch demo disc that Namco distributed at TGS 2003 that's worth playing if you're a superfan. It contains a unique level not in the final game and some of the music is different, too, IIRC.

this iconic advertising copywriter named Kathy Hepinstall Parks died over the weekend and I wanted to share something from her website I thought Bluesky would like

It's finally here! archive.org/details/the-... The errata of The Ultimate History of Video Games by Steven Kent. Took me a few years (cough) but its many errors are now compiled for your perusal. I will update this, so let me know of any errors you spot.

One thing I think about WRT misunderstood parts of Japanese game history is how few recognize the company behind DQ also laid Japan's foundations in roguelikes and novel games. To divorce the latter from canon is to deny their origins as experiments in what else console game design could achieve.

This is the best product listing copy I’ve ever read

Burst Error has been one of my favorite channels for ages and if you’re into well-made, fun videos on (mainly horror adjacent) video games I can’t recommend them enough!

Threading my #all50rts picks here (for those who don't know, a music challenge where people are listing fifty album tracks or B-sides). For day 1, here's "Daily Nightly" by the Monkees, a song supposedly about the Sunset Strip riots but which seems to me to be about streetwalking sex workers.

OK, I've decided to do this for as long as I remember (so expect me to give up some time in the As, or at the most in the endless expanse of "Bea"s)

Season 14 has only emboldened one of the most popular activities in my group chat with da boys, soft pitching King of the Hill episodes SPEEDING THE CUBE: Peggy coaches Boomhauer's stepson into the competitive world of speedcubing. Meanwhile, Joseph simps for Bill's VTuber persona.

This is Milo. He noticed you were packing for a trip. Wouldn't want you to forget the essentials. 12/10 (TT: mikrawrrrrr)

I like when a record has something on the center label that looks cool when it's spinning And this long bendy kitty cat sure looks cool to me
