A shower curtain that is a screenshot of Ocarina of Time where the text “Water Temple” is on the screen, hung up over a shower.

When I was a little kid, I wrote a strongbad email full of random nonsense. Since I just clicked "email strongbad" it opened my mom's outlook on windows XP. I was like 9 so I didnt really understand that she could look at her outbox and see it

She was like "YOU CAN'T EMAIL STRANGERS THIS STUFF!!!"

Yeah! So much stuff is just thrown together. I hear so much bad about like Nintendo's GameCube and N64 emulation and stuff from other companies too that I kinda wrote this PS5 port off last year. Really nice to feel some quality in it!

Actually reading a lot of the archive in SIREN this time. There's so many cool story details I didn't even know we're here

This thing really was a worthy successor to Silent Hill! In a perfect world, we'd get not a remake but instead a SIREN 3 that looks and plays just like the first two!

I'm about 70% through now and I gotta say, really happy with this PS5 port!

Only thing the PCSX2 ver has over it is the widescreen hack. But otherwise it's an excellent port that's super clean looking and I had no discernable issues. (Shibito got stuck on corners on PCSX2 sometimes, not here tho!)

Ended up going "screw it" and looking a few items up for SIREN. But man, the rewind feature on PS5 still allows so much experimentation!

It's so nice trying random little things I don't exactly think will work, and whipping back.

Just did the Harumi house escape, just as awesome as I remembered!

So you must understand my frustration then. I have to try SO hard to get people to care about anything new that deserves it! Big companies like Nintendo have all this legacy and money so they just win.

And I see this dripfeed crap and it's like "yup that's how they win"

Just a bummer to me man.

There's plenty reason for it to come out slowly. It just doesn't have anything to do with providing a service people want.
