The nostalgia for pre-digital TV really hit when I saw that Blippo+ has its own version of Ceefax/Teletext.

3+ hours on Groal couldn’t get me to quit Silksong but I swear if I still don’t get to unlock Act 3 after this Broodmother fight…

Nice, my copy of Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter arrived a day early. Changed my pre-order from PS5 to Switch so I could play handheld (though the 120fps is really nice on the Pro).

Going back for the poison tacks also helped ngl.

Followed a tip from Triple Click podcast and got through High Halls after turning off the sound. My brain needed the spare capacity to process what the hell was going on in that fight.

I've been alternating between these two games. Thought Everybody's Golf would be the chill after work one, but no.

Reached Act 2of Silksong. After banging my head against the wall in Hunter's March over the past week, getting through the door didn't seem all that bad.

As someone who’s been discussing games online since 2002..

I keep forgetting that nowadays when you say “Game of the Year”, people think you’re talking Geoff’s award show and not your favorite game of the year

Kinda hilarious that upgrading max health from 5 to 6 won't help because the bosses and their ads(!!) hit for 2 damage anyway. Just don't get hit, I guess.

As someone who didn't vibe with Hollow Knight, I've been having a way better time with Silksong. Enjoying it a lot. But wow does it feel like I've hit a wall 8-9 hours in.

Jasmine, we’re glad to have you back but you gotta give it a rest with that “tea/tee time” pun. 😭

Had this preordered as I’ve always enjoyed the series. Glad I’m not preparing myself for disappointment.

First time completing a game on NSO in all these years of having it. And it’s a good one!

The sound of Chibi Robo walking around is stuck in my head but it’s worth it for the weird and wonderful goings-on in this game.

Screenshot from Chibi-Robo! A frog is lying on his back with visible bite marks on his stomach. His girlfriend is scolding him for going missing for several days: “You don’t know what pain is, my friend, but you’re gonna find out pretty soon!” Chibi-Robo is stood watching this wearing a frog suit.

I noped out at the intro to Gremlins 2 on the Amiga - something about the voice sample and Gizmo’s reaction to it.

I’ve not played a modern Trails game but I’m really impressed by the remake demo. Better than what I was hoping for.
