Everyone understands why it's terrible to do this to books. Yet when I say the same thing about videogames I get called an elitist gatekeeping crank!

Como soy un tremendo old school vocaloid fan os voy a compartir algunos éxitos pasados (porqué los modernos me está costando seguirlos). Quizás ya los habéis escuchado pero se que por aquí hay gente relativamente nueva a Miku. 1. Rapsberry Monster - HoneyWorks www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKxE...

despite its usefulness i have been somewhat radicalised against delisted games dot com lately as a friends game got featured and suddenly, while in the process of leaving an industry that never supported or cared about them, had to deal with a bunch of bottom feeders demanding a goodbye sale

Mañana nos vemos en AVILÉS. ¿Me ayudas a difundir con un REPOST? ❤️

QUE JUGAMOS EN EQUIPO HASTA MUERTOS, TROZO DE MIERDA CON PATAS.

THIS IS THE END OF THE WORLD MAN

Irán es uno de los países culturalmente más ricos del mundo. Su legado cultural es clave para entender la evolución del mundo a nivel histórico. Una interesada visión sesgada y miope se ha extendido en redes últimamente para justificar su destrucción.

Very interesting to see Expedition 33 analyzed in the context of French history & politics. Turn on those subtitles and listen to voices from all across the world - they'll expand your horizons and help you grow.

I'll be honest, I think even if the segagaga team hadn't admitted to using machine translation people would have figured it out pretty fast based on what I saw in the first 15 mins of play

It’s funny if you call PayPal or visa lines and bring this up asking why they claim “adult illustrations” is against their regulations but betting on the death of kids is totally fine. They don’t have an answer. In fact yall should call them at least once a day with this :)

This week we'll get lots of discourse on the Epyllion games industry analysis www.matthewball.co/all/presenta... Take it with a grain of salt, but it hurts how it frames cassinos, bets, crypto & AI as things people do instead of gaming... Worth reading if you like this stuff, here's some highlights

New on the HGN blog, the next post in our Fictions theme. Sara Morini explores how Raid on Taihoku reworks time to create narrative fiction and rewrite history. Enjoy! www.historicalgames.net/raid-on-taih... #gamestudies #gamingthepast #skystorians

oh my fucking god i am never playing a yakuza game ever again

the current problem with the nintendo directs that isnt gonna go away anytime soon is that nintendo make them to show what games that are on steam are going to be on nintendo soon whereas we all watch them to see what nintendo games are going to be on steam soon

Me da un poco de palo, pero bueno, en situaciones extremas a veces toca arrastrarse un poquito. Busco urgentemente poder trabajar en alguna tradu. Mi situación familiar es muy crítica y ahora mismo, por salud, no puedo trabajar en algo que no sea remoto porque no puedo estar de pie mucho rato +

¿Son los foros redes sociales? ¿Lo es Reddit? ¿Cuenta el Streetpass de la 3DS? ¿Es el chat de Roblox una red social? ¿Lo es la sección de comentarios del Diario Marca?

Increíble que un artículo que escribí hace casi diez años sobre porqué los nazis llevan avatares de anime en redes sociales sea relevante hoy porque el creador de 4chan tenga relación con Jeffrey Epstein. ¡Es casi como si todo estuviera relacionado desde el principio!

seeing IGN describe Bloober Team as 'Silent Hill 2 developers' is making me feel the worst kind of vindicated re: my feelings on big shiny game remakes erasing the originals

That's what I'm talking about.

Uno de los reportajes más bonitos que he hecho en toda mi vida: la Biblioteca Nacional de España nos abre las puertas para hablarnos del proceso de preservación y conservación del videojuego editado aquí. Darle las gracias a la institución por el amor y lo bien que se portaron @bne.es con nostros.

Happy new year everybody! Here's a first look at our new project! More information to come soon ✨ !!

Hace unos días di una charla en la Universidad de Valencia en la que tocaba varios aspectos geopolíticos de la transición energética. Creo que hay un par de ideas que sirven muy bien de resumen sobre dónde estamos ahora que cerramos 2025.

La única reacción sensata a lo que está pasando en Venezuela debería ser que, independientemente de lo que pienses sobre su régimen, resulta obvio que Chávez no lo llevó lo suficientemente lejos.

I seriously need help. I cannot survive right now. My job won’t start until the end of January, and I’m literally out of cash. Please, this is like my last cry for help.

Kaori Tanaka (Soraya Saga), has announced that she will be retiring from writing video games due to family circumstances via her official blog. She did writing for Final Fantasy VI, Xenogears, & Xenosaga Episodes I & II. sorayasaga.blogspot.com/2025/12/reti...

if AI is a hardline no for you, as it is for many of us, you gotta start getting into truly independent shit or simply accept the slop. i don't think AI is "inevitable" but i do think the tech-adjacent games industry is currently and in the near future saturated with it

And this one of the main reasons video games are one of the tamest, less challenging mediums. Any attempt to draw outside the lines is cut short by the medium's own structures.

I feel like we don't talk enough about how Twilight Princess Ganondorf is just Emperor Beld from Record of Lodoss War. Nintendo, stop being cowards and give us an Ashram too! Where's my deluded, brooding black knight?

Ya es oficial, mi primer artículo por fin ha sido publicado en @historygamesnet.bsky.social. Quizás pueda ser demasiado sencillo y desde luego me falta mucha práctica al respecto, pero estoy contentísimo de haber dado un primer pasito por lo menos. Ojalá os guste tanto como a mí redactarlo!
