The Eternal Life of Goldman looks gorgeous and plays pretty well.

But damn, it's a tough-as-nails platformer that doesn't hold your hand.

Also, it's waaay too talky. Like these conversations go on way too long.

Honestly not sure if it's for me after the demo.

I don't know. I just don't think corporations can make real video games anymore.

That's actually the only one I haven't played! It's finally available to me now that it's on Switch 2. Will get around to it one of these days.

I would quite literally pay $100 for a remastered Bloodborne that's cleaned up visually and runs locked at 60 fps.

Hit skeet, hell yeah

No, those are good games!

Sunshine is the only great 3D Mario after 64

A pizza pie with a slice being removed. The copy reads "New Pizza Firenze. Fast Pizza with Slow-Baked Taste. So Good, It's Guaranteed. Only at Burger King."

Two personal-sized pizzas sit on a table with garlic bulbs and tomatoes.

Burger King Pizza Firenze (1991-circa 1993): A line of pizzas from the iconic burger chain, boasted a "slow-baked taste". They were prepared in-house using "special fast-bake ovens" Available in a personal "SingleServ" option for lunch/dinner, or medium size, only available after 4 PM... a 🧵

failing upwards is the true promise of the American dream!

folks i’m starting to think that the people in charge of these big institutions in the gaming space don’t know what they’re doing

this is a bad faith/boomer take, and you know it

BluePoint does awesome work and makes classic titles more accessible to new audiences.

Yep, same! I didn't get the Souls formula before DS Remake. It opened the gateway for me to Bloodborne, which is now easily one of my favorite games of all time, and opened my eyes to embracing games with challenging combat. This is a nonsense move.

what the fuck are we doing here

mfs will say "this game doesn't respect my time" and then say they love FFVII Rebirth

played a couple hours of REANIMAL last night and it's dope so far -- got that good ooky spooky visual style and monster design

now this looks interesting. Balatro (right down to the UI) mixed with chess instead of poker. Love the idea.

there it is! knew a bunch of people were waiting for this one

idk what the situation is like over there, but sports betting has become pervasive in the US. Like... it's everywhere. We're way past it being "predatory" and now it's a full-blown problem in that you can't escape gambling ads and moneylines no matter where you go.

If only he'd gotten violent with the little girl in the Exorcist

If there is indeed a reality in which companies no longer sell their services/hardware and we have to rent everything from corporations, I will be going off the grid.

We could have stopped developing art assets past the GameCube/PS2 era in quality and gaming would have been better for it.

Yeah, idk how anyone can complain about the prior two films when the TROS spends its nearly entire runtime trying to say "nuh uh" to everything set up previously.

Disney... Man, what a company.

genAI is dying repost to make it die faster

Just had someone email me at work in Comic Sans and I don't wanna do business with them anymore

when's Todd gonna figure out that not evolving your game design over 20-30 years results in worse experiences?

Virtuoso or Disco Elysium?

Do the Super Game Boy for SNES and Game Boy Player for GameCube count?

After 20+ hours, this is one of the best rougelites I've played.

Deep tile-based combat, tons of different mechanics, wacky humor (not for everyone), zany art (doubly not for everyone), DND class system, and enough content to keep you satisfied for dozens (hundreds?) of hours.

9/10

Absolutely correct
