Confession: This was my first version of the game.

Such an impressive port!

And it happens in real time! You don't even have to refresh for it to happen. You can watch one type of video you've never watched before, and the next three swipes are that same type of video. It happens that fast.

Instagram is worse about this than ANY other social media platform. You don't even have to watch that much of the video -- just lingering on it for a whole 3 seconds instantly tells the algorithm that that's your favorite thing in the entire world.

Never tried that. Sounds incredible!

The problem is I'm not even a huge fan of curry to begin with. But you're right, I'd probably at least try it before I threw it in the trash lol. How could you not?

Indeed I have lol. Kinda wish I had a box for my shelf, even though there ain't no way in hell I'd actually eat the stuff.

That's the ideal, of course! That's what I have with my wife as well. Doesn't work for anyone, but it works for us!

Guys, it's not that your wife truly believes that you don't find any other women in the world attractive, or that you never glance at any other boobs or butts. She doesn't.

But it's SUPER easy to not make it PAINFULLY OBVIOUS when you find another woman attractive or look at other boobs or butts.

Son sees me using my new "I like her butt" coffee mug.

Him: "Whose butt do you like?"

Me: "Your mom's, of course!"

Him: "Eww!"

Me: "Hey, you asked! Would you rather I say I like a different girl's butt??"

Him: [Thinks for a moment, walks away in silence]

It's one of those games that needed another 6 months of polish, and/or the publisher to kick in a little more cash, and it could've been something special.

Sadly, it looks like the dev that made would go on to make a lot of DSiWare coloring apps and such. So that might've been their one big swing.

Haha, yes exactly. It's always the most random posts he seems to like out of nowhere before the latest follow.

It has its problems, for sure. And the camera seems specifically designed to show her ass as much as possible rather than giving you a functional view of the environment or the bad guys lol. But it's still a fun stealth action game, even without that (though the "that" definitely helps).

I also looked (before blocking him) and he hasn't made one single reply, not on other people's posts or to replies on his own posts lol. Definitely a bot.

Yeah, there's a Steam one, but it's a pretty bare minimum remaster. Just one of those "ran through an HD filter" types of deals. I want a true remaster, and I'd also like it for consoles.

Yeah, an EA-published game that was actually awesome and an original IP, but it didn't sell well so that just further sent the message to EA to stop bothering with original IP as much.

07.08.2025 15:45 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Well, some of them have been remastered. I grabbed Night Trap, Corpse Killer, and Double Switch for Switch for like 2 bucks each a few months ago lol

๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ Remasters are important for preserving gaming history ๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ

Some of them lazy, sure. And some are obvious cashgrabs. But we need to stop groaning and complaining about them, because they genuinely do help to preserve games that would otherwise be unbuyable and forever locked to dead platforms.

Yeah, same. I want a remaster so bad. Those graphics would look SO sharp in HD.

Sadly, I ended up getting rid of the first Sega CD I bought when I upgraded to a CDX. And THEN I sold my CDX a few years later when I needed the money and they got super valuable. So I currently have no Sega CD hardware whatsoever.

Too many people dismissed it as a God of War clone. In same ways, it sorta was, sure. But it was also a genuinely good game on its own.

It also wasn't shy about tiddies lol, even on huge monster bosses. So it had that going for it.
