PSVR is in a box in a room somewhere so I did some flatscreen Rez. It’s been a while - I get pretty shocking scores when I can’t just aim at what I’m looking at… 💀

okay, USB headset volume is also way better than the standard Realtek audio driver for the desktop, so that's a bit more workable...
Problem: desktop volume weirdly tame even when at 100%

Apparent solution: change the Windows output to my smart monitor, connect to the monitor with bluetooth earphones, crank the volume of the monitor up

What do you mean "just improve your PC audio hardware?"

1. WTF?
2. The series didn't need part 3, and barely needed part 2
3. and yes Lethal Weapon probably did it better. Or numerous other buddy-cops
4. but really, WTF?
5. but if you *are* doing a part 4, use it as an opportunity to take the piss out of the government. That would be awesome.
Paramount is in talks to distribute Rush Hour 4 after President Trump reportedly lobbied Larry Ellison, the father of Paramount CEO David Ellison, to revive the action-comedy franchise, according to The Hollywood Reporter

Watched the first of my Bluray gifts, Naked Gun 2025. Very rapid-fire with the humour, which means that enough will land over time to make it worthwhile. (I particularly liked Gustafson's confession, and the "internal monologue(s)" moment at the beginning 😁)

I've mostly listened to EPs this year, but Here & Now might end up being a notable album release. Nothing too daring or weird - just some quality feelgood vocal D&B ✨

Despite life stuff, I'll try to enjoy my birthday today. I'm treating the sale purchase of Double Dragon Gaiden that I haven't started as a makeshift present. Also: the Chocolate Orange that I, er, ate yesterday evening.

The RROD was a nightmare, but this was my first "online" console as I never used DreamArena and my OG Xbox was hacked. Things like voice chat and the Marketplace were new concepts for me and it was still an exciting generational leap - before we had the safer iterations from the 8th gen onwards.

Geoff, your platforms are glorified ad spots that enjoy regurgitation from the press after the fact: anyone who provides you with enough incentive is telling you how to run them.
Just want you to know that when I asked Geoff why he gave the silent treatment to an open letter written by his own "future of games" program (& co-signed by 3000+ industry peers), he replied:

"Because that's my show and nobody gets to tell me how I should use my platform". 💀💀💀

A rare food/drink review. Perhaps unsurprisingly, limited edition gingerbread flavour Pepsi tastes very similar to what I remember limited edition ginger flavour Pepsi tasting like. It's nice, but I don't think I'd have it often.

Never owned a GC but I’ve been interested in its RPGs - Baten Kaitos has been on my bucket list for a while… (I think it got a remaster?)
Happy 24th Birthday, Game Cube! Making its way outside Japan to the USA in November 2001!

Let's celebrate with some GCN eye-candy: very high resolution and quality from a press disc.

What games would you recommend to someone wanting to get into its library, peeps? What are your faves?

I saw some discourse around the Zelda movie stills and Link not wearing his "iconic green cap", so I went to the Internet Archive and skimmed through Super Mario Bros. (1993)

*81 minutes* pass before Hoskins and Leguizamo wear their red and green overalls. We were a lot more patient back then.
