That's me most of the time with pcsx2 and some hd texture packs

Amazing disconnect these days between the dismal job market in games (don't think I've ever seen it as bad as it's been the last couple years) and the actual business of games. Circana is projecting record U.S. spending on games in 2026. Lots and lots of money in games, just not for making games.

É ao menos bizarro que um monarca esteja sofrendo mais consequências por esses crimes do que os bilionários. A monarquia se caracteriza por um sistema de poder divino e desigual, a república seria um sistema de igualdade perante a lei.

We are about to run face-first into a combo of: - Covid development delays (2020-2022) - End of Zero-Interest Rate Policy (2022) - Overinvestment in games-as-a-service (2021-2025) - AI-based hardware shortages (2025+) AAA games take 4-7 years to develop and bring to market. It is going to be BAD.

And after all that, the Pitt/Cruise AI fight scene appears to have been just digital BG and face replacement on multi-angle green screen reference videos of two real live human stuntees fighting. In other words, like most AI hype — it was a con. www.shokunin.studio/blog/2026/2/...

i do not mean this as a diss i am a noted n64 liker but: is the n64 the console with the most outsized cultural impact ever? like go look up how many games got released for that thing. it's not a lot. the dreamcast had almost twice as many and that thing was on the market for like 2 years

see also: "wow why are so many of my favourite bands from sweden, and all of them met while they were studying and have been working musicians ever since, man what's up with that"

In case you missed it, I inducted the Commodore 64 classic, Stroker, into the Jeff Gerstmann Hall of Fame last year. The video is TOO HOT for most services, but thankfully the Internet Archive is ready and able to serve this sort of content up. archive.org/details/hof_...

Open source software, cool old stuff, media preservation tools, physical media, creation tools, stuff made by people

Just getting endless use out of this image.

This is why we need to go back to PS2/Gamecube limits for game graphics We could be making this type of stuff with extremely short dev cycles because the art tools are so fucking good nowadays, but all the higher ups are interested in is making sure we can see Naked Snake's nose hairs

If you don't know what I'm talking about, Technology Connection had a video about them from a few years ago: youtu.be/i_mLxyIXpSY?...

lent and ramadan kicking off on the same day

If my feed is gonna be talking about Nirvana the Band for the next week, I need more of you to watch the sublime crossover they did with Mega64 a few years back that went mostly unnoticed. They get a lot of mileage out of what first looks to be a simple premise and then keep going. Love it to bits.

The "Sonic Advance 2" PC Decomp project is progressing really nicely. Meaning it hopefully won't be long before we can all enjoy this game in high resolution, and very much-needed widescreen support to help seeing further ahead. github.com/SAT-R/sa2 #Sonic #GBA #retro #homebrew #romhacks #gamedev

When will they shoot themselves on purpose? There’s obviously work to be done here

Burnout 3 is underrated as one of the very, very best games of all time because you can show Burnout 3 footage to people two decades later and their reaction will still be "hell yeah, this rules. I wanna play this right now."

Linda Davis was killed by ICE today. A Black woman, a beloved teacher, killed by ICE in Savannah, Georgia. Her name is Linda Davis and she was killed by our government.

A reality show about an unemployable middle-aged Irish comedy guy living with an unemployable middle-aged American hat-wearing comedy guy who together nurse their tragic unfulfillable dreams of a comeback would honestly be hilarious.

One of the highest concept dumb movies I have ever seen in my life. Exceedingly stupid, impossible cinema. The most Canadian movie ever made. I laughed incredibly hard and have no idea how that got made, funded, planned, or shot. A miracle.

Use it as well. Love it.

Potential Zeebo news breaking? But I take great pride in being the Zeebo Gringo

Millions of files related to Jeffrey Epstein suggest the existence of a 'global criminal enterprise' that carried out acts meeting the legal threshold of crimes against humanity, a panel of independent experts appointed by the UN Human Rights Council says reut.rs/4rpxDfl

This week's podcast truly has it all! News! Interviews! Multiple mentions of a game called "Gex!" Get it everywhere you get podcasts! Here's the video version! youtu.be/e7A3R5zbEwA

a AMBEV fez ser proibido vender Xeque Mate (qqer concorrente AMBEV) no carnaval de rua de São Paulo. empresa compra Estado e gera os problemas que já conhecemos: - pessoas querem consumir; - pobres (negras) traficam o produto proibido; - pobres (negras) reprimidos pela polícia.

The cast of "RoboCop" (1987) reciting their favorite lines. Bonus feature from "RoboDoc: The Creation of RoboCop" (2023).

AI filmmaking is completely unserious. You've got people with $30k begging the internet for ideas by next week because they have nothing of their own to say, it's just slop for the sake of slop. Embarrassing state of affairs.

This Brazilian woman hates AI

Truly the most stupid timeline. At a point in time where renewable energy has tipped into genuine widespread viability, capital invents whole new ways to fabricate waste and scarcity.

Os brasileiros tem que ficar atentos em quem irão votar nesse ano. Se necessita de SUS, direitos trabalhistas, previdência social (INSS), bolsa família e outras coisas, não votem em extremistas de direita que apoiam neo liberalismo, como de Milei na Argentina.

“[James Talarico] was supposed to be here, but we were told in no uncertain terms by our network’s lawyers, who called us directly, that we could not have him on the broadcast,” Colbert said.

Excited to see if we get glimpses into how compressing it and making an HDR/DV grade of it worked.

Here it is, your moment of zen.

Droga preciso ir dormir, mas queria saber em quanto tempo upam os jogos novos xD Fica pra amanha =P

isso sim será um evento

Try New Telecommunications Zero

it keeps going back and forth between being infuriating and funny how much we study this when the answer is always the same and it never matters
