Obligatory repost of my 5x5 (+1) in here so people can judge my videogame taste.
Consider that, whoever did this, is more passionate about this maligned game that died in a few weeks that you are for your favourite games that you played for years.

we wanted to make samus’s experience as a capable woman more realistic, so we gave her an annoying man who thinks that he’s funny and constantly telling her what to do

I do wonder why valve is trying to sell the steam machine as a 4k/60fps capable device, even with FSR doing some heavy lifting that feels like overselling considering the specs fluctuate between being better and worse than a PS5.
A lot of contemporary titles simply won't run like that.

The successor to GZDoom is out now, after GZDoom's lead developer decided to start 'vibe coding' with AI.
For those worried, this should perform EXACTLY the same as GZDoom. Probably better, and with improving compatibility as there's more people actively working on it and listening to the community

With remasters doing ugly smooth filtering where pixels become eldritch horrors I dunno why companies don't resort to spending some time doing an ok CRT filter instead
It doesn't need to go hard on trying to make an accurate CRT experience, even just a simple scanline filter can be transformative.

This animation stutter/skip that happens in map load triggers (?) in Soul Reaver remastered is driving me insane
I checked the PS1 version through duckstation to see if I was just misremembering but no, this doesn't seem to be OG behaviour.

Revisited American McGee's Alice this halloween and fell in love with its visual, audio & narrative again but also found new appreciation for how the team applied their 90s FPS lineage into an early attempt at a 3d action platformer despite the jank that came with it.

It's recently come to my attention that someone made a fake UZDoom website. DO NOT CLICK IT!
The only official website for UZDoom is ZDoom dot org and the ONLY official place to get future UZDoom downloads would be the official UZDoom Github page!
Stay safe out there y'all
[Boosts appreciated]

A way better discussion than I was expecting from what is an overdone topic at this point, especially the part where self-curation is more important then ever
But what exactly are we comparing when we mention that a trillion games get released on steam every year?

keep getting distracted by this final world series game but I eked out two quick playthroughs of clock tower over the last couple of days! disorienting, inscrutable, unwilling to give answers, it's a surprising early horror title and still resonates. link below!

I wonder how much they will be able to achieve with the new artstyle compared to the impressive 2d art of the original game but gameplay wise it is hard to think of a dev as fitting to make a sequel to Darkwood as ice pick lodge.
Welcome Ice-Pick Lodge to the Hooded Horse family!
They're making Darkwood 2: a sequel to the unforgiving survival horror game originally created by Acid Wizard.
We'll be publishing Darkwood 2 in consultation with the Acid Wizard team.
