Speculation around the return of Boards Of Canada has further intensified following the presence of a number of mysterious posters in different worldwide locations, with Warp Records sharing social media posts of the images buff.ly/zMLwCBk

Couldn't fill a couple spots, but fun nevertheless!

Herding all possible onscreen enemies into a single cluster to mulch with dynamite is *the* strat on pitchfork-start. Resources management is a challenge in itself, and nailing the timing down on the toss + backjump is its own skill.

I hate this fucking game

This week we have an exciting new Paper Mario interview from the 11/00 edition of Famitsu 64! Director Ryota Kawade and Hiroyasu Sasano share their favorite characters and scenes, and reveal cut content and alternate battle systems. shmuplations.com/papermario/

Launch, finish with a spike, unblockable. Good old Tekken 6 Azazel strats

Replaying every map on pitchfork-start has been a fun puzzle to crack. Managing resources, herding and clustering enemies, great for finding secrets too... Now I know there's Invisibility + Guns Akimbo in this little nook if you jump through here first: tailored for clearing out the water section!

I love streaming Final Fight because sometimes things like this happen and while I know exactly why it happened, I don't know how to explain how screwed up it is.

The better you get at Blood the funnier it becomes

Yesterday, my random monthly classic video game magazine arrived from @gamehistoryorg.bsky.social. This January 2004 issue of PSN will preview PS2 games for that year. What interesting tidbits might it have in store? We can already see early talk of the PS3 on the front cover. Let's look inside.

the khazan dev team got dissolved and reabsorbed back into the rest of the dungeon fighter online dev team, sad - i didn't think the game was *fantastic* but it was primed to have an absolute banger of a sequel that added a few more weapons and varied up the level design a little more

4gamer published a piece on the late Tomonobu Itagaki as relayed by several former colleagues: Yoshifuru Okamoto (former Tecmo/Valhalla), Satoshi Kanematsu (ditto), Kengo Aoki (Soft-Gear; Devil's Third network lead) & Yousuke Hayashi (Tecmo)https://www.4gamer.net/games/999/G999905/20260403045/ 🇯🇵

Happy easter and remember Raziel died for our sins.

no one man invents a video game, let alone a video game genre, but Kishimoto claims that he based Kunio-kun on his own life so I think he comes pretty close. RIP.

Yeah, the Defiance remaster is pretty bad

Maybe not in all FGs but I'd like to rep Virtua here. Pai 9K is one of the lowest-risk attack options in VF. A fast mid that hops lows, is safe on block, hit-confirmable into a knockdown with 9KK, or you can use advantage of first hit to reset with hit/throw mix. Or just 9K again. Hoppity hoppity

Sometimes, no matter how careful you are, the hitscanner always gets theirs first

Honestly, I don't think time limit is that big of a deal. This fight doesn't take that much time at all!!

You're all right by me, Metal Gear AC!D

RESURRECTION OF THE LITTLE MATCH GIRL (Jang, 2002)

bro look at that fucking hitbox interaction when the tall guy tries to knee strike me it's beautiful

Downtown is shit on for many reasons, but I think it makes a case for real-time total map awareness. Because everything is so open, enemies can easily disrupt key areas previously thought cleared out. It certainly leads to more dynamic routing, given how set-up heavy the map is by default.

It completely went past me before that these enemies have friendly fire lmao

Replayed DmC for a quick reappraisal. It certainly takes time to see its fangs with prior action game experience, but I do think the environment is a highlight both in visuals and in the play when it gets more dynamic.

Gotta love when you’re replaying a game and you realize you’ve arrived at That Room

How I feel reading 99% of art and media critique these days

Final Fight has truly rotted my brain. Trying to enjoy new bmups, but there's only like 4 enemies on screen and I keep trying to jab into shoulder toss by holding down. Any time a game isn't stomping my balls, I as a player should be asking, where is the ball stomping??

Both hilarious and upsetting that Cody can just do this to Sodom. Probably best I give Guy a rest for now, feel like I'm trying to understand the game backwards.

Haha shout out to Raeng

This is the greatest boxart ever

Fresh off the controversy of GenAI assets in Crimson Desert, Square Enix goes full "screw you, writers": mynintendonews.com/2... Sometimes we work to preserve artistic masterpieces. Sometimes we preserve history to remind us of where things went horribly wrong.

I was today years old when I learned about the Alchemy trick in Final Fight. Thanks, Hi Score Girl.

Nothing beats chaining those hitboxes together.

Jecht mirrors are a good time, it's arguably my favorite match-up in the whole game. But sometimes they can get a little out of hand... find out how ⬇️ www.youtube.com/watch?v=LDPG... #Dissidia012

Happy 25th to Circle of the Moon. Incidentally replayed this (twice...) in the last week! Dislike it more each time, but I can cut it a little slack for being a launch game. It's still choc full of questionable design that at least makes for an interesting "could've"s and "should've"s experience.
