"support solution oriented conversations" is the type of third rate mba consultant pablum that says nothing

but hacks know it sounds sort of serious without committing to anything

so they shove into politicians' mouths to insult people with ears

no i haven't eaten lunch today why do you ask

Relistening to the Battle Network 2 ost and I think there’s real value to hearing GBA sounds through analog beyond the novelty.
I dont think its just nostalgia speaking when I say the GBA sound is misunderstood; it was the last machine where you heard the actual hardware sing like that.

this is why complete control of the camera just being a given in commercial game design has been the death of beauty.

Bring back fixed cameras.
Bring back composition.
Bring back the screen as proscenium arch.
There should be more games inspired by avant-garde stage design.

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.

We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."
Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷

Kid Icarus was created under grueling crunch conditions that made its developers both miserable and insane. so the Eggplant Wizard was created as part of this madness; it reflected how much they were looking forward to the bonus they'd receive after finishing the game

eggplant: nasu
bonus: bo-nasu
i was going through my X archives and found this by @superpodsaga.com, which I qrt'd at some point years ago

so, let me bring the question back: what is the most useless piece of video game knowledge you know?

Ken Sim is a ghoul. May he never know a moment of peace.
Vancouver's 2026 draft budget has PASSED.

Approved on a 7-4 vote on party lines, with ABC in favour and councillors Fry/Bligh/Orr/Maloney opposed.

Property tax freeze, $50 million more for VPD, and cuts to Arts, Culture, Planning and Sustainability departments, among others.

Full story to come.

the whole "don't play the game, just watch a video on youtube that will explain its story to you" is so disheartening because the issue of accessibility is genuinely really important but it's always just people who want to be spoon-fed nicely quantifiable information

Ironic XI is missing because I believe it might have the most out of any title. Nearly every expansion the main character (aside from you, the silent protagonist) is female

Colorgrave's last platformer, Curse Crackers, is in my top 5 of all time. Dunno if Claire can usurp it but it's so full of love; I'm having a great time. John Sinclair's OST rips and reflects the game perfectly; energetic, celebratory, and a little cryptic www.youtube.com/watch?v=bDWJ...

The Zork trilogy was released as freeware in 1998 to promote Grand Inquisitor and most modern IF is written in Inform, which compiles into the successors of the original Z-Machines, so a modern game could be ran on that vintage hardware but sure let’s all give BDS target Microsoft some free press!
