Fascinating story about a โ€œghostโ€ concept car that was designed in 1939 but possibly/maybe/probably not actually built at the time, and only discovered when the sketches were found in a barn decades later.

I guess I wasn't too far fetched with my conclusions when they announced that 'too many people' were using the assault class, as it's the most similar one to the gameplay of CoD...

Guys, every person you see on Fox News in a mask is just Robert O'Neill, retired Navy Seal and occasional Fox News contributor. He's the former Antifa, former Gazan, former gang member. His eyes are very unique.

The Japanese Mario 64 official strategy guide is an incredible thing. "Can we make little hand-made dioramas of all the levels?" "Sure, why the hell not."

Mo: Do you remember the first time you met someone who said they loved your work on Mega Man 2?

Tateishi: Youโ€™re the first, in 2013. No one else has.

Mo: Wow. Iโ€™m surprised. I donโ€™t even have a follow-up questionโ€ฆ how could no one come up and say something.

Tateishi: โ€ฆ

Mo: Now that you know how big Mega Man 2 is outside of Japan, do you look fondly back at the soundtrack?

Tateishi: Yeah, my thoughts have changed since I met you and became more aware of how people felt. But even when I was at Konami, I didnโ€™t even bother telling anyone I did Mega Man 2. So the fact you came all the way to Japan to tell me these things makes me very happy I worked on the game all those years ago.

1. Work expands to fill the time.
2. Every task has a minimum time.
3. Creatives need room to explore and play.
4. Creatives need deadlines.

Please just develop the literacies and dispositions to play old games just like you can watch old movies.

The fact that the Paprika OST is not on streaming pisses me off.

More than anything, I think the Halo series was a key asset in popularizing FPS games on consoles.

If your placeholder assets aren't clearly placeholders, you'll forget to replace them

Back in ~1999, the art director for some dollhouse game made a temporary diamond-shaped model for their character UI. By the time he realized they hadn't replaced it, it was too late and it shipped as-is. Oops!

The concept of cats is so good. You have this little, beautifully eyed furball made of the softest material you've ever touched, and all of a sudden it has teeth and claws.

The Gentrification of Video Game History Weโ€™re not all suburban kids who got a Nintendo 64 for Christmas

Since today's discourse is on how "not everyone grew up with Nintendo", I'll reshare this: medium.com/@felipepepe/...

And reinforce that this is systemic - a consequence of US hegemony. It's NOT a personal attack on American journos, youtubers & gamers, but rather a reminder of our differences.

Btw I don't mean that intricate = autism. But I've noticed that having a high capacity to become part of the fantasy, to the point of turning it into a massive, interconnected mechanism, is kind of tied to it. This is the first 3D game I ever designed: youtu.be/lmerarz0AMM?...

Wait you're autistic too? In hindsight, I should've guessed by your intricate designs. They really tingle the insides of my own autistic brain
