Saturday afternoon project. My son has been very hard on his laptop keyboard, so I replaced it. I had to take almost every component out and remove the screen from the body shell to get it done, but it worked.

I’m hoping we have a tight enough scene that if someone spots this stuff for sale we can catch these shitheads
KIRO 7 ran an article and two TV pieces on the theft of a box truck full of arcade PCBs, artwork, and machines from my workplace yesterday. If anyone in the Seattle area sees someone offloading a ton of CPS2/NAOMI/Neo Geo PCBs, stuff of that nature, please reach out.

I'm pretty sure I want a GabeCube. No I didn't make that up, but I love it.

Brie Larson and Benny Safdie are going to be great. Particularly excited for Larson. Chris Pratt still sounds so so wrong as Mario. Sigh.

So, today I'm announcing a new book project... and doing a call for papers: crpgbook.wordpress.com/2025/10/31/t...
It's an anthology of video game history outside the usual US perspective - an accessible & exciting panorama of different realities - and I'll pay 300 USD per article.
Please share :)

Today I’m putting my money where my mouth is and launching a new project — a book focused on game history outside of the usual North American perspectives.

One of the goals I set for myself this year is to read more fiction. As of mid August I hadn’t even started. But now I’ve read five novels and I’m starting another one this evening. My goal is to finish twelve before the end of the year. It’s been fun. I definitely want to keep this up.

$30 a month? I’m sure glad we’ve got a Gamepass at home. At this point I’m just buying new games I want to support and playing through the backlog. This subscription stuff is bad for us.

My youngest son and I are playing Split Fiction currently. We’re in Chapter 3. This game is absolutely wonderful. Wow.

For #randomgamesaturday here’s an odd one. My wife and I initially bonded over love of video games, horror movies and music. We got married on a Friday the 13th. And so, for every year of marriage, I’ve given her another copy of this absolute masterpiece of a game.

I’m still not sure how to convince people to care about other humans, but as the weeks go by, I’m getting more concerned about how safe it is to express such an idea out loud.

In Metal Gear Solid (1998), when fighting the Hind D helicopter, you're advised to keep track of its location by listening to the stereo panning. But if you've set "Sound" to "Monaural" in the Options menu, you get this exclusive addition. . .
