remember when nvidia just made video cards for pc gaming nerds? those were happier times

it's kinda wild how it turns out all our boomer parents were right about how video games would eventually ruin our lives, though

a little annoyed by that tbh

i felt a great disturbance in the roux, as if thousands of gumbo pots were suddenly pulled from bottom cabinets and plopped onto stovetops across the south

yeah, it's expensive but microsoft can easily make gamepass seem like a great value by simply raising the price of every game produced by the studios it's acquired

it won't actually be any more valuable, of course - but manipulating the market through the illusion of value is just Modern Economics™
Night Shift was the first automation game, but y'all aren't ready to talk about that

honestly, i'm still trying to wrap my brain around the idea that Plants vs Zombies is 16 years old now

DOSBox Pure Unleashed is a new version of DOSBox, which makes it easy to experience classic '90s PC games! It's made simple and sleek, just like emulating consoles. You don't need to use a command prompt! Loading games directly from .ZIP files or CD images is slick.

people talk about how bad the economy is, but somebody's out here buying up all the damn Home Depot R2-D2s
you don't miss how the world used to be

you miss when you were ignorant of how the world has always been, when you were awash in privilege so pervasive that it was impossible to notice the water you sailed on while others drowned in your ocean

you just don't like seeing the bodies
steam should only allow users to leave reviews and participate in discussions if they 1) own the game and 2) have played the game beyond the return window

it's gonna be interesting to see what nostalgia for this era of gaming looks like in 20 years, when everything today is some kind of live-service extraction shooter or goofy co-op fuckaround that won't playable after their servers shut down
fyi, if you start watching one episode every night beginning this Thursday, 10/23, you'll finish season four of Stranger Things the night before season five starts on 11/26

we like to keep water bowls in the rooms Giles most frequents, just so he doesn’t have to go wandering to the main bowl every time he gets thirsty

of course, he needed something theme-appropriate for my office…
Sorry, Texas. But I won’t be putting holes in my bumper for your front license plate chicanery.

Not today, Satan!

can we please stop putting notification icons in games for every damn thing?

oh, look. i picked up a sea shell, better put an exclamation mark next to it!

then i use the seashell and pick up another one - ooooh, new item! EXCLAMATION!

they're worthless, no one uses them, and they hammer my OCD
the fact that this game has existed since 2023 but i'm only just now finding out about it thanks to a random video shows just how difficult it is for small indie games to get any signal at all through the noise of a zillion new releases

it looks fantastic
