It is one of the best Arcade games ever made, like easily top 5 ever and yes I'm serious lol

It's just a perfect god damn videogame-ass video game.

Keep seeing posts about this from who I follow but I have no idea what caused this sudden conversation as no one has mentioned that specifically :S

Been upping my Artbook game after years of putting it off. Basically a full shelf.

Video are of 6 of my favourite more recent additions.

14 years after leaving spawn KurtJMac made it to the far lands. I was in my mid 20s when he left. Many musings and chats on space travel since and he's finally there.

I remember Tim referencing a Liverpool side in the 80s that did exactly this right? They started unbeaten for a while and then fell off.

I'm sure the people who had to decide on whether to burn alive in a building or jump to their death will be so pleased that Bill Burr enjoyed his trip to Saudi Arabia and the multitude of fast food joints he recognized that he could enjoy.

Apparently money matters more to Bill than integrity.

Surprisingly lame excuse around obvious censorship coupled with a weird can-you-believe-they-are-not-all-on-camels naïveté about Saudi Arabia. Really a sad miss by Bill Burr www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/general...

Bill Burr Defends Performing at Controversial Riyadh Comedy Festival: “They’re Just Like Us”

The actor-comedian details his experience at the event: "Definitely one of the top three experiences I've ever had ... I think it's going to lead to a lot of positive things."

Just found out the gemdrop VR games for Spice and Wolf and Laid Back Camp actually can be played without VR.

Which while I'm sure defeats the whole purpose I'm certainly not going to turn down the opportunity to chill with the ladies and camp for abit*

*like 1 hour long game or something lol

I had never heard of this series but the synopsis made for an instant xmas present for my mom. Looks great!

BlaizeV @blaizev.bsky.social · 11d

They just refuse to realize how far they've actually fallen. Like they are deep in their own banter era but have no patience for what it will actually take to get out of it.

The majority of fans seems to be this way at least...as do those in charge apparently.

Long may it continue!

the Command & Conquer series is 30 years old today we so have an excuse to share this iconic moment with Tim Curry

Obviously but they clearly existed in the relatively recent past (2012 was the Japan DVD release) so it's still frustrating to me. I'd be surprised if they were lost since then.

BlaizeV @blaizev.bsky.social · 12d

This being an upscale is profoundly disappointing as the masters on the Discotek DVD for Teyandee are definitely from film I'm pretty sure as it looks amazing.

This is another baffling decision from Japan.

social media and the significant rise in wealth inequality caused this.

TV and general media before this was leading us onto the path of it disappearing but social media gave significant outreach to those who promote racism as an answer to the failings of governments to control capitalism.

In terms of old Anime we need to sit Japan in a room and say

"Look we have money, we're going to leave this money here in this jar in exchange for that thing behind you in that pile. I know you don't know who's it is but I'll leave that all for you to figure out after? How's about it?"

Mike Toole @miketoole.com · 12d

the mambo one? always enjoyed that.

as for license rescue-ability... hmmm. out of print in japan for decades? made in 1999-2001? victor entertainment?? probably some sordid combo of bad materials preservation and licensing hell. but here's hoping!! www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRBk...

maybe, I just feel like because the teams are basically one or two a state (which are the same as countries) in most of US top sports leagues then there is a disconnect that is easier to achieve for alot of 'fans'.

Club football is much more intimate compared to franchise sports teams...imo anyway

BlaizeV @blaizev.bsky.social · 13d

This is such an american take. For most of the world sport is like a religion.

I'm british and support Arsenal Football Club and in terms of podcasts I consume more Arsenal media than anything else. It means alot to me.

Gaming podcasts are fun but games are just games, they are just experiences

Definitely going to GET this game. This coming out again is pretty WILD. But I bet, given its age AND stuff, it'll be quite TOUGH to beat.

It's great news and IF Madrid still come in for him hard then they'll have to pay ALOT now which is great news too.

Nice!! I see you fellow Anime Hoarder and I raise you lol

I hit 300 BDs recently, being upto date on what I care about from Discotek has been so nice.

And I still have 56 DVD sets though will upgrade to SD-BD for a few in the future like Project Arms and I suspect others eventually.
