vivid memories of staying up till like 4am finishing X-2 the night before that review was due

that was one of those liminal games where nobody on the senior staff cared quite enough to take it, so they threw the bone to me who had only been on the job nine months but cared a LOT

i've never seen a website with less chill, it's constant

yeah have considered getting a center many times just to allay the pain of bad stereo mixing

why I’ve been 2.0 my whole life, just can’t be bothered to make the room furniture aspect work. it sounds fine

Kinda reminds me of the old Roger Ebert idea that film projection induces a state of reverie while pixelated screens cause something more like hypnosis.

what if they're big Allen Iverson fans

i've had a pretty good experience with Porkbun

i also said this once. one of those rare milestone games that expanded my notion of what could be done in the medium

Good stuff, Windows 11.

hey, long time! appreciate the info, hope you're doing well

FancyCase-G05 Nintendo Switch 2 Slim Case Ultra-slim & lightweight Switch 2 case with hard shell protection. Precision fit & travel-friendly design. Compatible with 2025 Switch 2 models. 2-year warranty included.

can’t vouch personally yet but I’m gonna give this one a shot, it’s the slimmest hard case I’ve seen and has the cart pouches you crave

putting 80 hours into BOTW for a third time is genuinely the only practical use i'd have for a Switch 2 as it stands. actually i guess i'd play TOTK too

that’s a fairly deep cut!

pic pls

NINTENDOOOOO

now the question is what format are they uploading

there’s that button test

just what I was hoping to hear, thank you

that was definitely my biggest pain point too, i had to switch to playing that game handheld-only

Specifically wondering about whether it's still too easy to get false inputs on the diagonals like it was on the Switch 1 version, to clarify.

I need info on how shitty/not-shitty the d-pad is on the Switch 2 Pro Controller, someone post a button-test video pls.

my parents had three Midea dehumidifiers that all died in the same way over a short period, and Midea was shitty about not replacing them all (i think they refused further service after the second one). hard pass on that company

MGS2 is more next-generation than anything Nintendo could put out

do you know if the specific Lumines mix of Shinin' has ever been released on anything? it's missing from the Remastered soundtrack and the album cut is way longer

congrats man, MK is genuinely tied with Doom/Quake-era id for the #1 thing i could want from you all in this format

Sure am glad I said "this State of Play will probably be pretty low key" on a podcast that isn't even posted yet.

please have another bbq ASAP so i can pick your brain holy shit

i just missed a new Lumines while i was folding laundry, anything can happen now

!!!!!!

feel this deep down, that day three one is SO LONG
