  • Bringing Boulder Dash back for a new generation

    Jump

  • I loved the original games on c64 and atari800. I could never get into any of the reboots, remakes and restarts that used hi-def graphics. I think there is something lost when going away from repeating tiles and into polygons. Would love to see a remake using beautiful modern pixel art instead

  • Summer Games Done Quick 2025 Has Begun

    Jump

  • Thanks! Would have missed it otherwise.

  • I couldn't pet the cat :(

    Jump

  • Appreciate the cat for being a cat. Cat is not there for you. Cat is.

    Still can make you happy.

  • What's a really popular TV show you just couldn't get into?

    Jump

  • Loved the original, but US remake has just all the corners filed and padded.

  • Do you opt out of the facial scan at the airport?

    Jump

  • There is little point in refusing it. The biometrics are already in the database - the scan uses them to let you in without using your passport. Refusing to use the system will not take your data out of the database.

  • The end of Stop Killing Games [Accursed Farms]

    Jump

  • It was nice to have some degree of hope for nearly a year. So I guess, thanks for at least giving it a serious attempt Ross.

  • Sometimes the word "alternative" should be replaced with the word "bullshit". Ex: alternative facts, alternative medicine

    Jump

  • I think Tim Minchin, in his prime coined the saying: Alternative medicine is either:

    1. Medicine that has not been proven to work Or
    2. Medicine that has been proven not to work You know what they call alternative medicine that's proven to work? "Medicine"

  • What are your favorite games that you never see mentioned anywhere?

    Jump

  • Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden. An absolute gem from Dontnod that plays like a double-A god of war with superb writing and voice performances.

    Gives me the same vibes as Claire Obscure, but in a less flashy, more grounded world of early colonial America

  • Who is an actor you can't stand, but everyone likes?

    Jump

  • He also downplayed the risk of electing Trump (first time around) with a "what's the worst that could happen" attitude. I also can't stand his misogynist attitude towards women "what could Michelle Obama teach us? How to tell if a dick smells presidential?"

    To me that's an attitude catering directly to the alt-right, incel crowd.

  • Who is an actor you can't stand, but everyone likes?

    Jump

  • Actor/Comedian Bill Burr. I always found his comedy to be a "gateway drug" to right wing radicalization.

  • Xbox Game Pass might be getting a price hike

    Jump

  • I never used game pass, sorry. Only makes sense they have been hiking it for a while.

  • Xbox Game Pass might be getting a price hike

    Jump

  • Of course it is. First of many. The price will keep rising, since currently Microsoft is losing money on it. The number of games will decrease, the price will keep going up, the users will cancel, rinse and repeat.

    It truly is Netflix for gaming.

  • Been a good couple of years

  • I pour one out for Bacon Reader

  • Blue Prince - Have you played it? How blown is your mind?

    Jump

  • I keep wanting to love Hades but keep bouncing off it. It has all characteristics of what is want - great art, good story, solid voice acting... I think I am not into the combat mechanics though. Diablo, at least I would enjoy until I finished all the story and quests...

  • Blue Prince - Have you played it? How blown is your mind?

    Jump

  • Blue Prince is an awesome game, but it confirmed for me that I can't stand roguelikes. Any game that's based on repetitive loop where you do the same thing over and over for small progress is just not my jam. That includes multiplayer grindathons, MMOs and roguelikes/lites.

    I guess as I got older, time became more and more of a previous commodity and feeling like I'm not moving forward in an experience kills it for me.

    Nothing against the game. Just not for me.

  • I probably could, but I would probably forget I have it, just as I forget to double-click newly created comp :)

  • Atomic Heart 2 Announced At Summer Game Fest

    Jump

  • About Atomic Heart - a Russian game from a developer tied to Gazprom and Putin's oligarch buddies.

    This shit should be embargoed, not celebrated.

  • Projects - that I can deal with, but after over 20 years using AE, I still run into the same problem: clone current composition to do a version, rename new composition... Forget to open the new one and continue alternating the original.
