There’s a Wipeout (PS1) decompilation project and it’s looking really crisp at 4K144 on my PC. Maybe they’ll do Wipeout XL next? github.com/wipeout-phan...

I don’t think Guitar Hero was that impactful on the wider music culture but if anything it slowed rock’s decline a tiny bit.

Excuse me, I live above a Costco and below another Costco.

I was digging through the #EGM archive and it seems like they never bothered reviewing Wipeout XL? They previewed it three times and it ranked in the top 100 of all time like a year later. Very bizarre. #playstation

Gamers were always unhinged. #egm 116

It’s a good day to take the day off work to play Final Fantasy Tactics. #finalfantasy

Finished Chrono Trigger (Steam) for the first time since the SNES version, still an amazing game.

I finished Silksong but then found out there’s a whole third act and so far have spent 10 or 15 hours doing stuff to unlock the third act when I felt like I already did mostly everything. This is a big game full of secrets.

Silksong, hell of a game.

Finally found a good use for the iPhone action button, when the baby wakes up and I have her calmed down but not ready to leave her - a quick brightness toggle so I can read in Libby is nice. #iphone #libby

Silk Song is real and I have played it.

Why did they put #alberta Danielle Smith into #chronotrigger

I get that, I don’t know the details beyond what has been told to me ITT.I’m just saying that’s why the sports bet matters, it shows a lack of attention.I don’t have a pool so if my toddler gets into the backyard there isn’t much to hurt them back there and he’s old enough not to run into the street

I think the insinuation is that he wasn’t really paying attention to the kids. I have a toddler and a baby and it’s not really possible to pay attention to much else when they’re both awake if I’m parenting solo.

Was on a heater this afternoon in this game of Tetris DS today. #tetris #nintendods

Found a pic of my PC circa 2003. We didn’t have modular power supplies and IDE cables were thick so cable management was hard.

AMD Athlon XP 2500+ OC’d to 3200+
ATI Radeon 9700 Pro
Asus nVidia nForce 2 mobo
And probably 1 GB DDR RAM

Warm summer’s eve enjoying Chrono Trigger (Steam version).

In October 94, EGM showered FF3 (VI) with praise, calling it unmatched, the new standard, impossible to top - yet scored it all nines. #egm #finalfantasy

Wrapped up Expedition 33 today, it’s an all timer. It’s been a while since I enjoyed a game that much.

I was going to guess Wetrix but was wrong.

In 1995, Mortal Kombat 3 was on the cover of every console gaming magazine just about every month. I just can’t get into fighting games like I did in the 90s but I’m glad they’re still around and I’m excited for the MK Kollection. #mortalkombat #egm

Got my replacement for my 32” LG Ultra Gear 4k144 IPS monitor and it seems way better than the horrible bloom on the first one. Really spoiled by my OLED TV but I need this for WFH too (and also OLED is still very expensive).

A lot of people seem to think we didn’t talk about frame rates in the olden days, but here’s EGM in Nov 97, issue 100 talking about how Extreme G runs at 60 FPS and Wipeout XL doesn’t. #n64 #ps1 #egm

Great scores for Final Fantasy Tactics in EGM 104, March 1998 but it still feels underrated. This game has aged incredibly well. #playstation #finalfantasy #egm

Finally moved my new PC out of the living room, got a 32” Ultra Gear IPS 4K144 monitor and some Ikea shelving for my accoutrements. #pcgaming #battlestation

Almost missed this Outrun machine, which would have been a shame. I love Outrun so much.

The CRT on this MK2 machine is still crispy.

Got mad about the Switch 2 price and the price of its games so I spent $2100 CAD on a PC (Ryzen 9600X, 32GB, GeForce 3070).

I bought some business card holders today, to prop up my GBAs. Got a third, should maybe put my SNES themed n3DS XL up.

Ok, maybe I am out. #canada #nintendo
