The worst, most awful, fucking useless thing that has ever been introduced is browser notifications. The fact these are turned on by default, and the amount of people that expect free tech support from me when they don't watch what they fucking click is exhausting.

Grabbed a few retro psone rereleases lately. Croc Legend of the Gobbos? This is how you bloody rerelease something. Absolutely oozes polish. Gex Trilogy? No. Never buying another carbon engine game again. Fog. Shocking resolution. Dogshit controls and audio.

Absolutely loving my current dev environment. Working hard to finish this, believe it or not. I hope it'll be worth all the delays.

Didn't think much of my PS Portal. Wired my PS5 directly. Messed with every setting suggested online. End of the day, just not for me. Couldn't get an image I felt was worth it. I don't understand how badly Sony are screwing up peripheral hardware launches this gen.

Aside from Wolverine. Wow. State of Play is always a waste of time. I swear, gaming showcases are 90% Samey looking shit now. Flight Simulator 24 and Seven Deadly Sins Origin was about the only point I perked up somewhat.

What were y'all smoking when you were falling over yourselves to buy pac man world repac when it first launched. What an absolutely dire, dull game. Six dollars I'd like back tbh.

Yooka-replaylee... So. I backed the original. Bought it at launch of PS4 because it wasn't gonna hit Wii U like I'd hoped. My name was in the credits... But the game left me feeling...

Nintendo. If @nightdivestudios.bsky.social want to remake or remaster Eternal Darkness. You have my money waiting. Same with Rogue Leader. That is all.

I know I'm late to the party, but Ghostbusters - Frozen Empire was a bit good. It had a lot of heart. Definitely suffered with too many characters and plot points, and retreading stuff like keymaster/firemaster. But I am excited about the direction it appears to be taking the franchise in.

Rebuilding my old twitter on here. If I've unfollowed you on X it's because I have you here! It's a checklist system of sorts!

Been largely absent here because of the app lacking two things. A placeholder, that tracks the part of my feed I last viewed. And post alerts. I need my dang lbabinz alerts. For those two reasons... The awful musk app is still on my phone.

Kind of amused at how committed Nintendo are to shutting-up at the moment in regards to Switch 2. Nothing's gonna be a surprise at this point.

Wow... The Ursula battle was actually genuinely scary... Are they gonna have the dress with dem shoulder pads?

Melissa McCarthy owns this though. Voice, both singing and speaking, looks... She's the whole Ursula package. I wonder if Pat Carroll saw this before she passed. I'd be impressed if someone upstaged me this much.

Disney executives. Do they hate the Disney musicals as much as they hate their characters having parents? Finally watching the little mermaid. They give Eric a song. The song isn't "her voice". It's some unmemorable shit about uncharted waters. Extremely well cast (except Eric, for some reason).

Ok. This one I'm actually gonna use. It feels like home. Sorry threads, hive... I like it best here.
