I've been told, and it works, that to get a song out of your head, just listen to it. Its your brain fixated on something it cant fully remember so it helps it let go.

But i don't WANT to have to listen to Outcasts' "Roses"! My algorithm will be fucked up!

That moment with... that choice... I had tl shut down my computer and think about it for a day before i continued the climb.

Very cool. Would try out. Just have to cut something else in the game to make time to code it.

The emotional rollercoaster of The Perils will follow me for a long time.

Oooh. Im going in a few weeks. Where can i find this exhibition?

Yeah ive ridden some heavier bikes at times. You dont notice it once you're riding. Thats mostly felt when habdling it while parked.
My trident is quite light at 190kg wet weight.

Thats amazing. A fun year ahead.

Goddamnit winter. Stop already. All I want to do is ride my bike again.....

My favourite game of all time. Battlefield 2: Modern Combat. The true OG 'modern-era' console FPS.. when CoD was still in the 1940's. 24 players on PS2, Xbox & X360. Here are some renders from the fan favourite map 'Backstab' on PS2 upscaled via PCSX2.

The multiplayer in this game was completely inaccessible after the GameSpy shutdown in 2014. We were able to get the multiplayer servers working again 2023 and built a bespoke GameSpy replacement backend to support it. Full Stat tracking too! If you want to play then check out: bf2mc.com

You know, if the AI industrial complex really want game companies to use AI, they should stop making it so nobody can afford gaming equipment... Just a thought.

An absolutely mind blowing ride to be honest

Depends. Only if you want to experience what is objectively one of the finest TV series ever made?

I literally watched this yesterday! Gotta admire the way Ray grips the stick. Proper footsies too.

Aah yes. Family is asleep. Time for leftover champagne, some great cheddar and a good book.

Extended or theatrical? Either way I agree with your call.
I've been thinking about it a lot lately. I told some colleges its 25 years old and they said "yeah i found that old movie in my parents dvd collection growing up". That made me feel 100 years old.

What an inspired and fun character design. Love it.

Trying to find all the tricks of the trade for pixel art character animation. Currently using aseprite and just... getting it done. Blocking out an animation isn't a huge issue. But getting every frame shaded, consistent, proportional is another matter. I'm in awe of everybody who is good at this.

Having said that I do love the transparent psp, PlayStation 4, switch, so you have a great observation.

Which in turn is just a rehash of the same trend from the 80s, so in fact design peaked in the 80s.

Merry Christmas. Or happy life day.

Christmas commencing....

Time for my annual Dredd viewing

Somewhere, as you wrote this, a licencing lawyer woke up with a jolt and a cold sweat.

So please. Its not a big gotcha to AAA giants that these talented people managed to make that game in that time. Its being used, behind the scenes, as leverage to demand understaffed teams deliver outsized efforts with tight budgets. To scale down QC, design and art.

The word is that it cost 10 million to make. But just the licence fee of unreal, given publicly available sales, would be somewhere in the region of 6.5 million. And cursory math would not permit good salaries for 6 years with the rest. A startup often has to skimp and save.

I adore Claire Obscure: Expedition 33.

But this mythmaking about how few they were (not once you count musicians, outsourcing, localisation etc) and how cheap it was to make is dangerous. There are lessons to learn, but it shouldn't be "oh we can tighten budgets now and win Game of tge Year"....
