A couple days ago, a game I've long been anticipating, Lumines Arise, dropped: youtu.be/HVRIvW5mNYk
The posts by Christine Love attached (image) are all I needed to see to know they succeeded. More games need to be earnest and maximalist. Cringe is dead, being earnest is cool as shit.

here's a fun question i thought of: when you get a new controller (or other similar device) are there any games/genres you test it out on to make sure it's worth its salt?
my go to is puzzle games, and i labbed a new controller on Tetris Effect yesterday; this morning I tried it with Lumines Arise.

Last night I had a discussion in another discord that led to the phrase “Zeus is the Wario of the Olympian gods”.
That and my 2am brain led to this.
If you know about Zeus, you might have the extra context. Either way I found it funny enough to share.

discussion of how Zeus is just the Wario of Olympus led me to make this at 2am, that’s all the context you get

I actually finished something in my Metroid Prime hard mode run- I completed the logbook, which means every single enemy, lore, and other important item in the game is scanned!
On my original playthrough I only missed this one enemy (the Ice Shriekbat), so I just needed to scan it on the replay.

the game gave me triboulet and i said "okay, fine, i'll actually try this time"
at one point had 5 tribs (2x trib, 1x blueprint, 2x brainstorm) but Trib Blue Sock Brain Brain is a better setup, nine triggers per card vs 5. didn't get the deck fixing to go much further but i'm proud of this run~

Finally got 100% logbook in Metroid Prime Remastered partway through the Hard Mode test run I’m doing- really glad logbook carries over from clear files.
If I do beat the game on hard I’ll have all extras! We’ll see if that happens before December 4th, if at all.

Finally finished Super Metroid! I still have a couple issues with it- mostly the walljumps being mushier than stepping in cake- but I still appreciate it for how important it is to the Metroidvania genre. An incredible game for 1994.
Still playing Metroid Prime on hard, still enjoying it.

I… still wish I liked this game more. It’s one I want to revisit, but I have always understood and appreciated what it is for the Metroidvania genre- without it and SotN we would not have the genre as we know it.
The wall jumps fucking suck tho.

Started a new hard mode run of Metroid Prime Remastered, and been chipping away at both that and Super Metroid (which I’ve never finished). So ready for December 4th.
casual reminder there’s a Casual difficulty in Metroid Prime, ideal for first timers- any time you wanna try something new~

I legit use the Deep Note to test my headphones and I recommend you do too- practice safe volume settings, of course. But it’s important to actually know when your new headphones aren’t worth the extra you paid for them.

Post a PERFECT album from the 90s that isn't Nirvana or Pearl Jam
Sadly the Bad Religion album I would've picked (No Control) is just two months shy of the 90s. I stand by including it in a list of perfect albums, though.
These three, though, all shaped me.

seconding James, the new portrait mode is really nice.
i did the new MSQ and almost cried again. non-spoiler opinion: the way Dawntrail handles its most important topic (grief) is so good.

oh hey there's a game wheel incentive
maybe you'll get to play Metroid Prime thanks to that

After leaving the Bog, Samus moves to a technological haven, the last bastion against the darkness enveloping the planet... the Sanctuary Fortress.
