"I've seen the creation of life on the PlayStation 2" - title of my upcoming video essay

One of core experiences of FF - "menuing" - is not discussed enough.
Almost every FF menus (on original consoles) ran at 60 fps; so SATISFYING to order out a chain of command at lightening speed.

Did you know that there is a horror RPG inspired by Vampire The Masquarade: Bloodlines and set in India?

It looks extremely dope! There are endless stories from Indian Folklore ripe for interesting videogames and I can't wait to see more.

Not at all reuse assets. But I loved how God Of War PS2-PSP games carried the same look, structure and gameplay style.

I’m not sure I ever celebrated the decade anniversary but Highlight Reel has been going since July of 2014 so it’ll be 12 this year.

Found out about online MSX emulation.
This is just beyond brilliant!

Don't know how to feel about two actors passing away the same year I watched "The Wire".

Silent Hill f art and edits by far eclipsed any other games' art and edits this year.
(haven't played Expedition 33 so I don't know how it went there)
I haven't played any of Silent Hill f yet, but Bob told me I needed to make this edit. So I did. Because of the deep and abiding respect I have for him.

Finished : Nightcrawler (2014)
I'm a bonafide #Gyllenhaaler and it's not changing anytime soon. Everyone movie I've seen, his performance is electrifying.
This one was good, liked the writing and cinematography (though not sure if it was a good match for this script).

Out of nowhere, a game called Enemy jumped out of the bushes and beat the hell out of me, please listen to the story of me beating it right back, in a weirdly downbeat quest to save a mystical video game land

I had 1000+ followers on X/Twitter and I left that behind because I just didn't want to use that site anymore. Now I'm crawling at only 297 after a bit more than a year here. I know it's a beg, but it would really make me smile to get to 300 followers here on Bluesky by the end of the year. Hoping.

Seeing the latest Scott The Woz and BTS him goofing off with kids, it hit me how lonely I've been this entire year. Grateful for the few friends that did connect, but I've been as worse as my toxic job days even though I'm doing nothing.

@ohpoorpup.bsky.social given you're on a Namco run, I was recently played Moto GP 4. Rare licenced racing game made by JPN dev (that's not Polyphony). Turns out the producer was a major gear head (worked on later Ridge Racers).
Menu music is really sublime
