The branding for steam's new hardware. It's just three pictures of the new devices on a completely featureless beige background, with some text saying "new steam hardware early 2026".

The marketing team must have been up all night making this one. What gorgeous branding.

I had friends in high school who skipped class to play Skyrim on release.
I thought they were kinda stupid for doing that, I mean, there would be plenty of time to play it later.
Oh how painfully right I was, still waiting for a sequel as I'm hip deep in my career.

The classic Simpsons promo: On September 28th, one will die

For a Halloween video, I was half expecting a dramatic buildup to the death of one of the ad read guys

Agreed, your art is really great! If I can think of something to commission, I'll have to jump in on that, I was a little too late for that special offer last August.

Sunset Riders trying to say "good job partner", but going with "good job podner"

Reminds me of Sunset Riders ending with "Good job podner!"

I always thought Dutch from Red Dead Redemption was only called that as a nickname, since his family is actually dutch.
But, nope, that's just his real name, which is pretty weird. It would be like naming your kid something blatantly fictional, like American McGee.

The new Bretonnian team in Blood Bowl sounds really fun, with throwers and catchers having nerves of steel. I always loved the passing game, but it felt like you had to either play (legacy) high elves or (8 armor) pro elves to make it work. Might just pick up this team and finally try painting.

I'm also of the opinion that critter is neutral/positive, while varmint is negative.
For example, squirrels are generally critters, but if one gets into your house, it becomes a varmint.
Raccoons get into your trash bin and are generally varmints, but baby raccoons are considered critters.

It's rare I enjoy modern open-worldy sorts of games, but I do appreciate Tsushima on lethal mode. The danger of every fight fits neatly into a narrative where a samurai has to learn to wage a guerilla war.
Spear soldiers can FUCK OFF
Also, it's an impressive PC port, beautiful and responsive.

Spend some time reflecting on your choice of reflections, samurai

For a second there I thought Bond was going to do a nosebug.

YouTube video by Tyrone Deise Steamed Hams but it's a Critically Acclaimed Feature Film

This might be the most sublime meme I've ever seen.
Steamed Hams but it's a real, live action, no AI, 40-minute-long parody of My Dinner With Andre, referencing decades of Simpsons plotlines.

All seven of the last TWRP releases, all signed.

Another release, another signed TWRP album for the collection.
I'm especially happy to have the Ladyworld EP, since it was so early that Doctor Sung signed his full name, and Havve Hogan didn't sign with his doodle face yet. It's the first edition Charizard of the bunch.

It's next to the soup knife

Is it a universal childhood experience that playing outside with your friends is 50% inventing arbitrary rules, 45% arguing, 4% seeing if we have pizza money, and 1% playing?
I walk past the neighbor kids playing Pizza Football Lawyers all the time and I'm like shit we played that in the 90's too

A screenshot of the room from Silent Hill 4, with the front door padlocked and chained from the inside.

Apartment life really has its charms, I feel so safe and cozy in my little pad.

Fatal Frame Maiden of Black Water's brightness selection screen. They ask that you turn your brightness up until you can see the spooky ghost face in the middle of the screen.

This is a hilarious brightness setting screen.
Usually they ask you to make sure you set it dark enough for an atmospheric experience.

Meanwhile, Fatal Frame is kind enough to say hey, look at this creepy fucker, make sure you're able to see them or you're gonna have problems.

RE2 got a remake before RE1, but (my favorite) RE1 already had the 2002 remake, so that's fine.
Then Silent Hill 2 got remade before 1, which kinda makes sense, but it's sad for someone who likes 1 more.
Now, Fatal Frame 2 is being remade before 1, and I prefer 1.
Something something three nickels.

I want to go on record as having guessed the next new Blood Bowl team a year and a half ago, good to see Bretonnia being made official.
That said, if I'm going to buy some minis, it's going to be Tomb Kings. With the new secure ball action, they're going to be a blast.

This is the reason why, in terms of an American pizza, the simple New York folded slice is definitive.

Me, three hours ago: Ha ha can you believe that when Mirror's Edge was released, people complained that it was mediocre? I gotta replay that masterpiece.

Me, now: Ah. Right.

Tried out the Gears of War remaster on PC, and it's cool how PC/Xbox/PS5 crossplay seems to work pretty seemlessly. On the other hand, I went from going 0/3 to 7/0 by switching from controller to MKB. The difference is insane.
Predicting a lot of "REMOVE PC FROM CROSSPLAY" reviews on this one.

A screenshot of Mega Man Zero 1, of Aztec Falcon introducing himself in his boss battle.

A screenshot of Mega Man Zero 2, with Harpuia looking over Zero, with Aztec Falcon walking on all fours. The prior cutscene showed Harpuia actually riding him.

I hadn't noticed it in my first playthrough of the series, but in Mega Man Zero, Aztec Falcon is a regular boss, taunting you and mentioning that Harpuia sent him.
Then, in Zero 2, Harpuia shows up *riding Aztec falcon, who's walking on all fours*
This series envisions a kinky ass future.

Eric Lecarde, a guy so pretty that... uh... what was I saying?

Jonathan and Charlotte from Portrait of Ruin might be a fun duo.
Alternatively, Eric Lecarde from Bloodlines would be fun, being the only human pretty enough to be worthy of Alucard's spear.

WARRIORS...
THE FITNESSGRAM PACER TEST IS A MULTI STAGE AEROBIC CAPACITY TEST THAT PROGRESSIVELY GETS MORE DIFFICULT AS IT CONTINUES

IT'S FUCKING LOSS

I think I have the most basic, 2009 list possible.
Left 4 Dead purchased twice because I played it for two days, thought it was the coolest thing ever, and bought it for a friend.
I still really love that game, even more than 2. The atmosphere hits just right.

It's a legitimate strategy!

I heard this song for the first time like five years ago thanks to a feliz jueves meme and I still listen to this shit almost every jueves to make sure it's feliz
