I'm sure you remember well how your fave game ended! That epic conclusion to the multiple hours-long quest, or the long and demanding campaign you barely managed to beat. But what about games that were great, and had f-you kind of endings?

I'm sure you love some games that others somehow never managed to appreciate or even discover? Well, this video is about 90s PC RPGs that were fantastic, groundbreaking or years ahead of their time, and yet, most somehow never played them!

A two-page ad from 2005 for the Xbox release of Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth by Headfirst Productions
Initially planned as an RPG and with rights licensed from Call of Cthulhu TTRPG maker, Chaosium, this mad journey underwent many changes to become a survival horror adventure instead.

Bizarrely, I found I didn't have a PSOne Broken Sword 1 - which is somewhat odd. Anyway, I found a nice one on ebay. Great that is has a yellow sticker :)

Fallout 2 (1998). This game's map was massive at about 126,000 square miles. That's twice the size of the state of New York and larger than England, Wales and Scotland together.

Twenty years ago this week, Telltale announced that they'd signed a deal with Steve Purcell to make episodic Sam & Max games. Time flies!
In honor of this momentous occasion, all three Sam & Max remasters are on sale on Steam, PlayStation, and Switch. (Sorry Xbox peeps, we'll get you next time!)

I haven’t had a chance to watch the full thing yet, but YouTuber Tom Evans has assembled an epic 8-hour documentary featuring an impressive number of Morrowind developers, including some who weren’t involved in my 2019 oral history. Pretty wild:

I confess that I never stopped using WinAmp since '97. It is 2025, and I just found out about this Diablo 2 Resurrected skin for my favorite MP3 player. I think it's the best thing ever.
