If you want to see the sheer creativity and imagination of an old game that recently got preserved, I'm going to try and finish Ghost Rush! on the LaserActive. The game features claymation, puppets, 3DCG graphics; its super arty and weird twitch.tv/martydotzone

May I recommend Alex Kidd in Shinobi World which has tons of fun secrets, weird drone-y music like early My Bloody Valentine, and a lobster that shoots lemon wedges at you and dies with melted butter on him

“Games are art” but also “we demand you *fix* the story in Mass Effect 3”

mfw I see u streamed 2AM - 7AM my time again

After 19 years of listening to Retronauts you’ve done episode art that utterly breaks me

did they *deliberatey* stretch a 4:3 image for their main banner

LMAO I got the exact same clarification from my mom one night just completely out of the blue

Squall’s gonna need an icebreaker at the end of the video….

It is the 26th Anniversary of the best Final Fantasy: FFVIII. I dedicate this AMV (anime music video) to @philsalv.bsky.social for keeping the passion for FFVIII healthy and unapologetic.

as a fan of classic and progressive rock…. 😅

I held off on Blue Chicago Blues and now I can play the LaserActive version 😎

I call it “clock-in clock-out gaming” because you sit down and play for a hour, and you are guaranteed 1.2% more progression on your file. You can be mentally checked out for the entire hour and yet the result is the same. You’re never asked to do even one crucial input.

I think so. Some people really don’t like ambiguity or ambivalence in their media, it seems to make them uncomfortable. Instead of making a personal connection with a pice of media, a loud minority of people want canonical explanations, and reciting these in-universe facts seems to be the draw.

LOL nobody crack open that Goati egg!!!

thank you for immortalizing the Divine Ice Cream Cone

that’s a lot of yesses 🥹

Have you seen this comic about Sonic in the style of 1960s American counterculture comix? It was on the last page of a otherwise normie British gaming magazine

Last time I got Subway they put only put 7 meatballs in my footlong. I know they did it on purpose because the manager was training the sandwich artist on their first day. I worked at a Subway and if I shorted a meatball my Croation grandma manager would have chewed me out so hard.

I hope Nancy is coming back for another adventure soon…

The ruins run all through the zoo

@tawejea.bsky.social semi-solicited ruins pics from the zoo in Lima

Resident Evil 2 should have been Jill and Chris living together in the mansion after clearing it out and they have a big family and Brad is the fun “uncle” who makes tunes in the basement apartment

This looks like a PC-88 visual novel based on Wages of Fear

that sounds soooooo juicy!!!

@macaw45.bsky.social

@philsalv.bsky.social I streamed Labyrinth of Time as part of the exploration of all Myst/Gadget-likes and for the first time in my life I played thorough a game using a walkthrough for 90%, just to see the amazing art assets. The very first thing we did in the game ruined our chances of winning 😭

I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies that you've been living in
And if you do not want to see me again
I would understand
I would understand
The angry boy, a bit too insane
Icing over a secret pain
You know you don't belong
You're the first

I love it! Thank you! The set and costumes are perfect. I'm sure you've heard of these guys, Ozric Tentacles in '93. This was my intro to psychedelic jam music as a kid youtu.be/rhvXJU0rpOg?...
