'SIMILAR TO NINTENDO'

steam grabbing me by the shoulders and shaking me furiously as it blusters through teary eyes "please... bro... play something good for once... we're worried about u dogg..."

all about dat

to be fair it's probably pretty hard to manufacture physical copies of games for a console that doesn't have any

Isn't that pretty much every AAA developer, judging by all the recent stories of Xbox studios spending an entire decade fucking around in pre-production?

PlayStation news is a bold reminder that I probably need to turf all my old DVD-case PC games at some point. They're mostly budget re-releases in generic cases with homemade sleeves, I have access to downloads of all of them, and I YEARN for more shelf space for thick-ass books.

not that big, tbh

Medal of Honor Pacific Assault now has a widescreen mod that doesn't require a hex editor and manual in-game steps per-level. Progress! community.pcgamingwiki.com/files/file/4...

It only took YouTube seventeen years to notice and age restrict my old sonic let's play, and I simply can't imagine why

New blog post, my now-traditional write-up of everything I saw at Steam Next Fest. It features Cars both futuristic and role-playing, NES ROMs, zombified Napoleon and at least one instance of the phrase "standing out like a square cock"

durandal when he's winning: they're gonna measure my dick in lightyears, little man. i'm teleporting you into the ninth circle of hell, there's a button down there i need you to press. ciao durandal when he's losing: listen man. we're gonna be ok. you're important to me

OH SHIT WE PLAYIN MOUSE STAMPEDE

Have you played Command Performance? A late 80s mystical RPG in the land of Xa- ok, it's a DOS system manager. Slay that AUTOEXEC devil. No reason for that cover art to go so hard, but no one tell them otherwise.

an important idea struck me

Theoretically, if I had a big Doom mod coming out in about a week, would you be nice and cool and play it and also share any time somebody streams it?

2026 update: it keeps happening

With the Steam Summer Sale here, I'd thought I'd spotlight games with fewer reviews, but deserve as much recognition as any other game. Here's a thread! And if this was useful to you, I have a KoFi for tips. Let's get to the games!

Patrick Beach’s agent must just be in a perpetual state of ordering larger and larger yachts. Soon they will have a naval flotilla with which to invade New Zealand. #PARAUS

Went down the local to watch #PARAUS and hearted to witness a sea of bright gold making up the crowd cheering our boys on. And only a quarter of it WASN’T high-vis vests!

Happy 30th to Quake 1, the game whose tech continues to power both commercial and free games to this day, be it directly through one of the countless direct engine descendants or less directly through engines that just so happen to look exactly like a derivative at a glance

Release 2606 is live! In this Progress Report, we added support for the Game Boy Player, fixed a longstanding visual issue in tons of flagship games, your DualSense can speak now, we booted the final Triforce game, and more! dolphin-emu.org/blog/2026/06...

Tonight at 9PM AEST (7AM ET/12PM CET)! Demo season is over, the demos are dead forever (or at least for another four months). One more (this time for sure) batch of #SteamNextFest demos before they all get dismantled for scrap!

Rrraahh finally I can talk about it!! CULTIC comes to consoles July 23! It's been quite the journey but the end is in sight! If you haven't checked out CULTIC, you can find it on Steam now - although for no particular reason, I'd wait until June 25th to pick it up...

maaaan whoever did the ui for this game really, really REALLY wanted people to think it was based on halo or was another one of those that or one of the first-party producers had a real turgid one for handel gothic... either/or

my github home feed hasn't updated in like five days, almost missed an update to an app i use. can someone with friends in redmond and/or frisco please put a fresh hamster on the wheel and give the old one a respectful, high-budget funeral, thx

To mark the occasion, we're also releasing the source code on GitHub for all of you to take a look under the hood of the military simulator that started it all. We can't wait to see what you will do with it! #CanItRunArmaCWA #OFP25

25 years after the release of Operation Flashpoint, we're releasing Arma: Cold War Assault Remastered, now with widescreen support and updated code for better compatibility with modern hardware. Currently available as a demo on @steampowered.com, the full game will be released at a later date.

Happy 30th anniversary, Quake

Tonight at 9PM AEST (7AM ET/12PM CET), internet permitting! A farewell to incomplete demonstration-model products, at least for another four months. One more (probably) batch of #SteamNextFest demos!

Thought I better write a blog post about me reverse-engineering old T&E SOFT golf games to extract the courses from PC-9801 and Virtual Boy and get them playable on Sega Mega Drive...before I forget it all. #romhack #megadrive #pc98 #virtualboy #tesoft blog.gingerbeardman.com/2026/06/19/n...

Tonight at 9PM AEST (7AM ET/12PM CET)! Further demonstrations of software products that have yet to achieve apotheosis. More #SteamNextFest demos!

RIP Bobby Prince. His music legacy will live on, making inspired music for Commander Keen, Wolfenstein 3D, DOOM, countless others. A true legend. And such a nice man, great musician, wonderful, fun-loving man, nothing but happy memories of him. A loss to the world.

I really, really, really hope that something we can encourage with our library. I want a general audience to be able to tell better histories than summarizing Wikipedia and remembering a game at you

not really looking forward to a world where any ue6 game that performs poorly will just be instantly suspected of slop code/assets, but this is the tomb tim sweeney built for the industry i guess
