If those rumors about memory and GPU price increases are true (and I wouldn’t be surprised if they are), a lot of game developers will need to read and study that Sonic meme going forward.

For tonight on @damagecontrolblog.bsky.social I posted part 2 of the games I livestreamed in 2025. It was another mix of new and old. Plus, Square Enix certainly wasn't celebrating the 30th anniversary of Chrono Trigger, so I did!

WH sources say Venezuela's opposition leader committed the "ultimate sin": She accepted the Nobel Peace prize.
“If she had turned it down and said, ‘I can’t accept it because it’s Donald Trump’s,’ she’d be the president of Venezuela today,” one said.

yep. i can identify any number of structural issues but at the end of the day the basic problem is the republican party. this has been apparent for at least 20 years. it is also an incredibly unpopular observation to make among “serious” people.
Right.
If you want a good explanation of why the American system of government worked well enough for 200 years and then suddenly stopped, it's because Republicans in Congress suddenly started letting their partisan interests COMPLETELY override their institutional interests

a lot of problems wouldn't exist if we had a congress with even an ounce of self interest

I was worried that they'd run out of fireworks around here, but they had a big-enough surplus that they're shooting them off on January 4th. My first thought was for the Eagles, but they're losing, so they're doing it for the thrill.

it’s going to be weird going back to work and people talking like everything is normal. like in a final fantasy game when someone’s summoned a meteor from hell to destroy the planet and the villagers still only talk about the big chocobo pageant coming up

It's very interesting that Capcom cut a prologue section with Ashley from the Resident Evil 4 remake, though the video (albeit unfinished) makes it clear why they did. It would make for a slow-paced section compared to the rest of the game. www.eurogamer.net/resident-evi...

babe wake up, they're doing insider trading on war crimes
“What appears to be a newly created account appeared to invest $30,000 Friday in Maduro's exit. After Maduro went into custody Saturday morning, that same investor netted $436,759.61.”
Someone made $400K by predicting Maduro's capture. Here's what happened
The winnings come as the rules governing prediction markets are still evolving.
