Chip Tanaka doing his DJ set live was such a joy. youtu.be/NtznHkQTLVQ?...

I like how this bad name basically captures the last years of Yuji Naka’s career.

Earthion is launching September 18! 🎉 Nintendo Switch, PS4/5, and Xbox One/Series X|S, with the Steam version already available. A brand-new side-scrolling shooter that captures the golden age of late-80s to early-90s arcade shmups. Dive in and enjoy!

Just tried this thanks to @pc98audi.bsky.social pointing out that it exists. It’s very cool. Uncapped frame-rate and ultra Mario with some nice enhancements. www.opensourceprojects.dev/post/1967620...

What do ya’ll think? It’s not Cherry’s responsibility, of course, but I felt like it was a little mean. It was gonna sell like crazy regardless and dropping it this way hurt a good number of games. They’re not “in the wrong” or anything but man…

Dat PS2 aesthetic 💪

Amusingly, the screen will be a lot worse than an actual Virtual Boy lol

Come hang out over on @mylifeingaming.bsky.social - I'm joining Coury to chat about Nintendo Direct...live. If you want the rawest of the raw impressions, you'll find it here. Best stream for watching Nintendo Direct, most certainly! www.twitch.tv/mylifeingaming

Man, this demo was so good. I cannot wait for the Return of the King. Lumines PSP is still one of the best puzzle game experiences I've ever had. I remember sitting outside in the warm sun beneath gently swaying trees, PSP in hand, and reaching Lights for the first time. It was magic.

Man, this list makes me sad. Most people playing games really only play the same few titles huh.

30 years eh? You know what that means! Time to watch the DF Retro episode on the launch of PlayStation again! www.youtube.com/watch?v=9SaA...

I'm, uh, not sure about this Panzer Dragoon Zwei remake...

A sad day. :(

May your Sunday be filled with CRTs #ブラウン管テレビ

Best cover or best cover?

Does this trigger a memory for anyone else?

Ok, I was cold on Hollow Knight but Silksong seems to support uncapped frame-rates and ultrawide on PC so I may have to give it a shot. It’s rare to have that in a side scroller.

This is actually quite cool! Been playing it myself and the vibes are excellent.

Man. I hope this is Tengo Project’s next game. Shatterhand is a top 3 NES game for me. It’s that good. Bringing this back the way those guys always do. My goodness.

First thought

Weird issue with Windows 11 lately - when toggling HDR, it causes Windows to appear frozen but they're still active in the background and the mouse moves. If I unplug and replug the monitor, it comes back. I've tried DDU, among other things, and cannot figure out what's going on here.

Finally! Eight Days is being realized with 007 First Light! The PS3 dream is not dead!

I know Oliver is working on a video but I've also played a bit and, man, this is insanely impressive. It's doing more than expected - cutbacks are there but, honestly, it's legit with a nice suite of RT features intact. Amazing work from Ubi here (it's also a solid game)

What are your feelings on Sony Wega versus older Trinitron models? Specifically, consumer TVs. I'm juggling one of each right now and while I love the vibrancy of the Wega, the geometry issues seem impossible to fully solve. The normal Trinitron (29X5D) overall feels more suitable for games.

I just realized that shoes have taken the spot left by old boom boxes and mini-stereos. Ya know “Mega Bass”, “ w00x”, “X-bass” and the like.

Dang, I guess Rich really likes Chrono Cross

Ah yes, the HE1 headphones. Anyone own these bad boys?

Loaded up Space Marine 2 on a whim and, yep, still opens on the wrong monitor but you at least get a peak below the menu lol.

I concur. As I said last year, this is such a great remake. Worth supporting!

This is why I think id has been so great over the past decade - they made three Doom games but each one is so completely different yet all are amazing. Naturally, this means everyone will have a different favorite but I love seeing different visions of what Doom can be.

Worth mentioning here - maybe they'll improve it but, with the Japanese release that I played, the frame-rate is very unstable on a normal Switch but flawless on Switch 2. So it's definitely best played on a Switch 2 if jumping in.

Oliver just dropped his Wukong Xbox video and the results are some of the strangest I've ever seen. They made completely different decisions including just ripping out Lumen entirely in most modes. This is what happens when you remove RT (Lumen is a form of RT) lighting in a game designed for it.

Great to see! Can't wait to play this one! Had wanted to make a video on it like I did for Streets of Rage 4 but, alas, too late I guess! Excited to pick it up later this week!

Playing only the best games with @pc98audi.bsky.social

Look at that bounce lighting from his hand

I played a lot of Silent Hill f today and I really love it thus far. It’s quite different but has its own unique feel that I dig. The atmosphere is thick and the visuals stunning.

They’re not wrong. It’s arguably the least reliable CD player ever made.

I think I prefer the shiny plastic dudes in idTech4 games to the stuff we saw in early UE3 titles. They have a precision to them that I can dig.

Enjoying some more Raven action after finishing Hexen.

Ya know, the one thing I don't like about Gears of War 2 is that it's almost too good. 😅

On top of all the non-appealing ideas here what the heck is it with Microsoft and voice? Like, stop it. Nobody wants to talk to their PC all day. This is a terrible vision of the future and I hope they do not take this path.

It’s interesting how they added this menu to the original Unreal in a patch as well which replaced the original menu system. I can’t recall any other instance of a games UI being completely ripped out and replaced.

Loaded up Gears Ultimate Edition on Xbox to capture in preperation for the upcoming Gears Reloaded and, uh, I couldn't resist making this lol (turn on sound)

Fun little exercise. Was still in France back in 2015 there. Added beard and weight since then. :\

Andrew does awesome stuff. He even contributed music for the DF Retro episode on Road Rash. Boy did that add a lot of flavor.

Is there a way for YouTube to generate translated subtitles in real-time during a livestream? I have a crazy idea I'm working on and want to see if this is possible.
