new video! I think forza motorsport is a neat series and I am going to miss it if rumours of its death turn out to be true. I'm paying tribute to these games by talking about race tracks for a bit, and why and how these games taught me to love real-life motorsport

put out a video that featured my gamertag on screen, I guess this was to be expected at some point
cybershell talking about the isle of man TT might be the most CHR1597 core video ever made
"you can't even truly understand sonic until you understand the rich arcade racing game ecosystem which birthed him"

if truer words ever spoken it's news to me
(fwiw it's got a lot more views than I expected it to and I appreciate it)
you wouldn't want to disappoint the humble youtube commenter would you
👀 a chance to yap about games, you say?

been blissfully offline most of the day but received one of the better compliments I've ever had
forza video edit done, I'm busy tomorrow so expecting to export/proof/upload it sunday
couple weeks late to the take on this and not currently playing the game but when I see people complain that pokemon z-a locks content behind NSO I just think about how 15+ years of the series used to lock content behind toys r us
*ahem*

bufu deez nuts
spent the day fixing one of the biggest real work mistakes I've done so far, only half able to do the actual task I'd been assigned, signing off today and not back at work till wednesday, very funny
something to consider when people say "it looks like a PS2 game" as a criticism is that actually PS2 games running at 50fps on a tiny CRT are the best looking games of all time
anyway to reflect on the evening's news youtu.be/_nlJgA_xWU8?...
the more I do of this the more I feel like I should probably just have this image superimposed over the entire video
always a treat to fire up the wii u on game night, introduced some friends to the concept of boom street and after about 10 minutes saying "this is a little bit boring" they were all popping off at the result
I was surprised how natural Shadow Master felt to play even with that not-quite-right control scheme. I often struggle with older FPS with my Xbox 360 brain but gliding around in that weird little tank thing feels right to strafe with the right stick
pretty pleased with the forza video edit so far, I thought it was going terribly as it was going but it somehow feels alright to watch at full speed
it's really easy to avoid spoilers if you simply don't care. whenever I hear a conversation about it I always hear some mention of a character I've never previously heard of so even though I know the rough plot I still have no idea what happens
never seen lord of the rings, is probably the one that I get the most shocked reactions to
Inspired by a post I just saw in which someone admitted they hadn’t seen a single episode of Friends nor the film Love Actually… what cultural hole do you have that’s a bit weird for your generation?

I’ll go first: I haven’t seen Dirty Dancing.
and hey sure enough oscar after the race is extremely chilled out about the whole thing, proving the last couple of hours of everyone going insane about it was pointless
"fair play, that's good to see" at the idea that one team doesn't purposefully benefit another team owned by the same company. lots very silly about F1 but that's one we really need to sort out imo
GP is so annoying man, doing his little routine to keep max angry about something that didn't make any difference
started playing persona 3 portable last night and I fear I might have made a mistake because it bangs and the last thing I need is another long series of games

knew nothing about the PS4 version and didn't expect it to keep the charming PSP models for everything, whooped with joy that it does
