Take a few minutes to appreciate Drew Struzan creating the original artwork for THE PHANTOM MENACE. Truly a master at work.

Oh yeah. It's taken a while, but I've gotten used to it, lol.

Did another playthrough of Clock Tower for the spooky month, and I had a lot of fun

I really appreciate the art in this game

Each room is meticulously designed. Clock Tower has an incredible variety of color schemes, yet the main character always manages to fit perfectly into them

i heard you like your october creepy? how about "Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness for Nintendo 64" creepy?

i liked the game on PC RetroArch, but it gets stuck upon entering gameplay with the Wii emulator :( Not64 it is indeed haha (i'm sorry, the cutscenes are flowing like butter smooth)
a screenshot of a table with an attempt at a pentagram on a cloth with candles and a book on it Death itself! doing the spoopy deed DRACULA arises! bah! goddamn his boss fight was tough. can't he just stay down? Cornell, one of the protagonists of the game, climbs a boat and gets locked by the emulation :(

Here's an absolute win for autism. I've spent the better part of 25 hours grinding randomly dropped pieces of armour in Destiny 2 so that I could recreate the vanilla Titan shown in the class selection screen.

I need to stop spending so much time in Destiny 2.

More Koudelka (PS1, 1999)

After encountering a host of indescribable Lovecraft horrors and eldritch beasts from Hell, I was delighted to meet by far the best enemy in the game, an adorable void cat.

Damn fine kitty right there.

#crt #retrogaming #playstation
Koudelka prepares to deploy her most deadly magic as a four-armed demonic brute bears down upon her. Edward looks up in horror at an eldritch monstrosity composed of an extraneous amount of limbs, some of them human. He prepares to strike. Koudelka takes in the decadent ambiance of Patrick Heyworth's quarters. Red carpet adorns the stairs. Masterwork statuary hold aloft burning candles. Marble pillars project wealth and power. Yes, Patrick Heyworth, owner of Nemeton Monastary, certainly thinks highly of himself. In Roger Bacon's room, the party is attacked by what seems to be a mundane black cat, but this feline holds an arcane surprise. This may be my favorite CRT photo I've ever taken.

Resident Evil continues.

I finally died for the first time. Not to any of the fearsome monsters encountered thus far but to a damn boulder.

Then I hit a puzzle that requires an item I completely missed and will have to backtrack to find.

Video games, baby.

Jill Sandwich rushes hurriedly down a dark and spooky forest trail, Beretta M92F at the ready. Malicious birds and malcontent dogs stalk her from the shadows, ready to waste her ammo. Jill enters a room, shotgun ready, unaware that the largest and hairiest tarantula ever lurks just above her head. This photographer, dear reader, loosed a sort of Hank Hill-esque "buhhhhhh!" in terror. Jill investigates an underwater control room as a gigantic battle-scarred Great White shark smashes its snout into the glass, eying her for a meal. Having now slain giant spiders and sharks, Jill Sandwich bravely continues her quest into darkness, emboldened in her ability to whoop ass. Her trusty shotgun (the regular kind, because she callously let Richard die) yearns for more combat.

Neither did I! There's also a cool grey variant too that I'd like to get my hands on some day.

Got a Japanese original Xbox controller today. Was surprised to see that the ABXY buttons were slightly different, with the letters being embossed which is pretty cool. I primarily got it because I like the centre circle being bright green like the console itself.

I've played 60 hours of Destiny 2 in just two weeks, what have I become?

Thought it'd be fun to make a tier list of all the consoles I've played on.
The placement of a few might be a smidge controversial, and I never noticed how much of a PlayStation bias I had until now.

Darkstalkers: The Night Warriors
Arcade, 1994
Capcom

Happy Fighting Game Friday.

A different Darkstalkers iteration for every Friday of Spooky Month, starting here with the original from 1994.

This roster is chock-full of memorable, charming character designs.

Outside a pub on wine-soaked cobblestones, martial artist werewolf Jon Talbain prepares to block a double claw swipe from mostly-nude cat woman Felicia. Vampire Lord Dmitri blasphemously performs a Christ Air jump kick to the head of sexy succubus Morrigan in her gothic lady lair. In their rematch in Dmitri's vampire lair, with his mind-controlled brides spectating, sexy succubus Morrigan takes her revenge, knocking his feet out from under him with an aerobatic, gravity-defying sweep kick. Talbain and Felicia meet for a second bout on a rooftop bathed in pink neon light. Jon's ferocious wolf nature contrasts with Felicia's feminine feline agility.

Glad to hear it! It's perfect for this time of year. The atmosphere and sound design is what seals the deal for me.

And that's a wrap for Doom 3, first game for the spooky season complete. Feeling like continuing the sci-fi horror thing I've got got going with a replay of Dead Space next!
