Going to attempt to construct a master list of games I've rolled credits on in 2025, like I could in the old place, hope it works.

Particularly when “inflatable frog causes ICE to melt” was right there if they were a newspaper on the side of good

I was expecting it to be some old 90s issue, then I saw Elika from PoP 2008 mentioned, and my brain broke down. The worrying thing is that the actual editor possibly insisted on the feature

So dumb. Plus normal ppl here just say UK here, hopefully even the Tories can spell that

Still need to play it, my friend lent me a few games including Metaphor. Kinda glad they didn’t announce a new improved version at the event so I can play without regret lol

Exciting and looking forward to seeing what the internet's premier Silent Hill fan thinks of it (I do also love Chip’s gamer need to get ahead of you tho instead of experiencing it for the first time as a spectator )

I love the boss fight at the end of the disc. It’s etched into my mind as I took a few attempts and settled on using Carbuncle to cast Reflect on my team and just casting magic on ourselves to bounce it back on the boss to get past her reflect lol

Beautiful photo. Perfect lighting, framing, DoF, hair it has it all

God, I love Viii so much. This whole sequence (excluding the sewers ) is so amazing (don't forget to draw the GF from the boss )

The only negative is how slow it so (Goro coulda swatted him in the time it took)

But good lord Goro holds up so well (I saw the recent film and I can't recall the CGI Goro clearly at all. Like I think it was well done but they never just let CG characters be in a scene like with Animatronics)

I see the us gov mistook the red tinted clouds for explosions lol

Reminds me of every time video game publishers talk about monthly active users as being what they care about now (and focusing on revenue when they do talk money and never mention profits and costs) so XBOX the last 2YRs has not been surprising when they remembered they still had to pay for things

There is some argument for ground pounds but that’s really a downwards jump when you think about it

Thank god they kept the translucent dome and skull underneath. It’s one of many aspects of Cameron meddling I hated in ALIENS

Could prob go for many games with the rest of the cast (a full riku or Roxas solo game would get a good reception or the bbs trio )
sonicsean34.bsky.social
Yeah Lara is bigger than her franchise (at least she was in the UK I dunno about the USA where some of you struggle with her name lol)

(Obviously, stuff like Sonic and Mario would struggle without them long term cos they are in the title lol )

Nah it's something we should all do create an actual system instead of going by vibe. One day I'll actually do it in a game lol (prob use notes app on my phone tho cos it doesn't need to be permanent)

How do you accidentally shave a beard? (I've absentmindedly forgotten before I was now at the shaving gel step and already done cleansing and covered my whole face with shaving gel like an idiot tho)

Rolled credits on over 20 games so far this year when before I’d struggle to get through a couple in a year cos I’d just not have it in me to focus on anything.

Got prescribed and now feel much closer to how I felt when I was a teen than I have in years. Much easier to take part in my interests now when I would spend months just hoping I would suddenly have energy/motivation the next day could watch a film or play a game after failing that day.
sonicsean34.bsky.social
My problem was getting the energy to try to make appointments (failed several times over a few years cos had to go through the call at 8am thing) tried again last year end of May got through quickly and there was a slot that day.

It's a shame we think this cos no one would think diabetics needing insulin as a personal failing. SSRI just corrects neurotransmitters to correct levels.

It’s extra hilarious when you remember that so many of Microsoft’s big moves this gen were ostensibly out of fear of Google and Amazon entering gaming and grabbing all the publishers like Bethesda and Activision. Yet Google folded nearly immediately when it realised gaming was difficult

It’s funny until a few weeks ago when someone online mentioned it I had forgotten about stadia entirely lol
