Ayer me pregunté si los viejos juegos digitales para Xbox 360 sobrevivieron al cierre de Xbox Live. No he tocado una consola de MS desde entonces.

Resulta que la única forma de ver tus adquisiciones de la época es usando la app móvil oficial de Xbox.

Y bueno, una cosa llevó a la otra y tal 🤡

We've added 100 new CDs to our collection of press CDs from GamePro magazine, with thousands of pieces of game art, screenshots, and more

So, what's the GamePro press CD collection? We put together an explainer

I spotted this on Mastodon and I find it horrible, not least for the speed with which this has happened.
A post on Mastodon by small cypress (@small_cypress@indieweb.social): As an art teacher I was worried AI would come up as an issue of "why should I learn how to draw when I can use AI instead." But the real issue is that my middle schoolers CONSTANTLY believe all art I show them is AI. Digital art. Photography. Oil paintings from the Western canon. "A human couldn't do that" Being convinced that humans can't make great art is kind of terrifying

Esta preciosidad me recuerda a cuando mucha gente puso a parir el estilo del Return to Monkey Island. Hay muchas formas de reinterpretar el pixel art. Stop remasters HD y más imaginación, hombreya.

I legitimately didn't know they were competing with Steam and it's crazy to me that they burnt so much money on what sounds like something with very little (or wildly misguided) market research.
Ethan Evans, former Amazon VP As VP of Prime Gaming at Amazon, we failed multiple times to disrupt the game platform Steam. We were at least 250x bigger, and we tried everything. But ultimately, Goliath lost. Here's why: The 15+ year long attempt to challenge Steam started before I was VP of Prime Gaming, but we never cracked the code. Not under my leadership or anyone else's. The first way we tried to enter the online-game-store market was through acquisition. We acquired Reflexive Entertainment (a small PC game store) and tried to scale it. It went nowhere. Then, after buying Twitch, we created our own PC games store. Our assumption was that gamers would naturally buy from us because they were already using Twitch. Wrong. Finally, we built "Luna," a game streaming service that let people play without a high-end PC. Around the same time, Google tried the same thing with their product "Stadia." Neither gained significant traction. The whole time, Steam dominated despite being a relatively small company (compared to Amazon and Google). The mistake was that we underestimated what made consumers use Steam It was a store, a social network, a library, and a trophy case all in one. And it worked well. At Amazon, we assumed that size and visibility would be enough to attract customers, but we underestimated the power of existing user habits We never validated our core assumptions before investing heavily in solutions. The truth is that gamers already had the solution to their problems and they weren't going to switch platforms just because a new one was available We needed to build something dramatically better, but we failed to do so. And we needed to validate our assumptions about our customers before starting to build. But we never really did that either. Just because you are big enough to build something doesn't mean people will use it

¿Por qué nadie me dijo que el Midnight Suns de Firaxis es como los XCOM pero divertidos (lol), con mamarrachadas fanservice a espuertas y un sistema de progresión a medio camino entre los Persona y la kripta de los Mortal Kombat?

fyi recuerda que en su momento lo canjeaste instintivamente en Epic 🤡

Infinity Blade fue el primer gran blockbuster móvil. Tim Sweeney dijo en 2013 que dio más pasta que la saga Gears of War. Hoy no se puede comprar ni jugar salvo que lo preserves en un dispositivo iOS viejo.

Curious Expedition es una joya, pero con mods la cosa es un disparate. Hay una conversión total de Doctor Who que lo convierte en el mejor juego basado en el personaje, lo cual tampoco era muy difícil tbh. steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/...

Playnite es un launcher tremendo de PC para unificar todos los juegos que tienes por ahí en otras tiendas. Desde los que canjeas con desgana cada semana en Epic y Prime Gaming hasta los bundles benéficos aquellos de Itchio. Dejemos atrás eso de que "si no lo tengo en Steam, no existe". playnite.link

Hay formas muy elegantes de guardar vuestros tebeos de grapa. Unos archivadores bonitos con etiquetas encajan de maravilla en una Billy.

Obviamente ocupan más que otros formatos, ¿pero a quién no le va a gustar tener a mano los 100 primeros números de Spawn por si te da un apretón de mamarrachez? 🤡
