The first CPS2 game I ever purchased.

I would but I heard the bedrooms are so cold and there have been many complaints tenants crying out in their sleep.

It doesn't matter anyway; my timing was so flawed that no rentals were available when I applied.

I had such an amazing time with my fellow MCS cats and all the talented Indie Retro Homebrew Showcase and MIVS devs at MAGFest. What a fun and incredibly professionally fulfilling time.

Can't wait to do it again!

Would you be interested in a portable PS1? If so, what's the first game you'd want to take on the go?

Retro gamers, what's stopping you from dressing like this?

Rise and shine, retro faithful.

Anyone else getting a quick game in with their coffee this morning?

Nope. Not in the slightest. Dark days ahead.

What was your favorite Build engine FPS?

Blood will always take the top spot for me with its campy horror aesthetic, brilliant maps, and inventive arsenal of weapons to dispatch crazed cultists and murderous monsters.

The Sega CD was an RPG lover's dream.

If you could only choose one of these classic adventures, which would it be?

It may not seem like much in this era of ray tracing, volumetric lighting, and real-time shadows, but PSX DOOM's light sourcing felt so goddamn revolutionary when it released 30 years ago.

We all wanted to be the lucky kid who scored this hoard of classic plastic and silicon. Of course, it was too good to be true.

Well, there it is. My productivity music for the rest of the day.

Appreciate it as always, friend!

Peak gaming memory for sure!

I have a confession to make: I'm utterly obsessed with train stages in video games.

Can we get a train level appreciation thread?
