Gran Turismo 3: A-Spec ad. "Tahiti looks a lot different at 225 MPH."

Poster for Killzone. It focuses on a Helgast enemy with glowing orange eyes. It reads, "They say the eyes are the windows to the soul".

Final Fantasy VII dialogue. Aeris: "Cloud, why don't you dress up like a girl? It's the only way."

Dark Cloud 2 print ad for the PlayStation 2.

The T-Rex demo was an ominous showcase of what the PlayStation could pull off. So glad someone decided to throw it on the demo disc that came with every console. 🦖

I only bought EGM a couple of times. It was too expensive because I was in the UK. Great magazine though. I usually defaulted to CVG.

The 90s in a nutshell.

Silent Hill 2 meme. James is talking to Angela asking, "Who the fuck ripped this fat vape at Silent Hill?"

Mary... are you really here? Blue razz lemonade always was your favourite.

You and me both.

Ronnie Pickering!

Imogen Heap.

Drake meme format. Doesn't like Bluesky controversy, likes PlayStation! Hopefully this doesn't get me cancelled.

Another day on planet earth.

That sounds delightful. I'm going to look into this! 😀

Screenshot of Hellnight. A character, Naomi, looks longingly away from us. She says, "There's something... Something horrible waiting there!"

Mysterious young woman Koudelka Lasant, having just broken in to the foreboding Nemeton Monastery, rescues well-meaning himbo Edward Plunkett from a zombie and then heals his wounds with the psychic powers granted by her Romani heritage.

Brave Edward faces a giant plant monster three times his size armed with only a sledgehammer he procured on the premises.

Edward gives scumbag Bishop James O'Flaherty a tongue-lashing over his un-Chistlike derision of the poor. Koudelka puts her hands on her hips, annoyed that the boys are fighting. A grim stained-glass window depicting a tortured martyr looms behind them.

With trepidation, Koudelka approaches a holy altar that has been tainted by the haunting of a cursed ghost.

A spooky RPG for spooky season. Only a couple hours in, so I don't have much to say about it yet, but it's definitely a prime example of the chunky PS1 graphical aesthetic. The animation is all mo-capped and is stunning for the time.

Thank you everyone.

To celebrate, I'm going to make some toast with jam AND butter.

You're pretty good.

Loading screen for Abe's Oddysee. It says, "Abe's Oddysee is LOADING so get over it!"

You wouldn't get this experience on the N64. 😎

I hate how true this is.
