Seems bad! Gaming is quickly becoming a hobby only for the rich and the rich alone can not sustain the industry.

“try water fox or ice weasel” try chill penguin. install flame mammoth. you just download bubble crab. literally just use boomer kuwanger. sting chameleon has a search bar, use it to find toxic seahorse.
I asked what I should use instead of firefox and someone said “floorp” and I legitimately thought it was a bit for like five minutes. tech has gone beyond making the torment nexus real to making poob real.

@ifycomedy.com @briamgilbert.bsky.social I'm just saying, a sci-fi writers episode of Um, Actually with John Scalzi and others would kinda rock
YES THIS

also FOMO goes right out the window, as in, sure, I could go out to all the hot spots OR I could lie here in bed with my iPad watching @dropout.tv with at least one cat dozing alongside, hmmmm, I guess the cool kids will just have to have fun without me
The best thing about middle age is not giving one single solitary fuck about being cool anymore.

The Switch 2 feels like a spiritual successor to the GameCube, right? No unique gimmicks*, it’s able to play the latest third party AAA games (with slight cutbacks), and it’s already gotten two sequels to series that started on the GameCube

*mouse mode doesn’t count

Metroid Prime 4, final thoughts: it feels like a remastered version of a game that came out 15 years ago. It makes several choices that make it feel like a 360-era reaction to Halo and other FPSes of its ilk, and often doesn’t feel like it understands what makes MP special.

why does samus, the largest human, not simply eat the others

Yep. Metroid Prime 4 sure is improved by having NPCs that you need to interact with for beam upgrades.

If you’re wondering, the NSO GameCube controller does *not* work with Metroid Prime 4. While the GC controller has enough inputs, there’s a few things mapped to the Select button… and the GC controller ain’t got one of those (only Start).

Finally! The wife has been buying a 12 pack of the white monsters every week for decades, but she can only look at them wistfully, and not drink them, because they're not for her
If they really wanted to appeal to women they should have made a drink called Monster Fucker.

everyone is rightfully lambasting metroid prime 4 but i do see how you write give samus an otacon on the board and think it’s a good idea. it’s not. otacon sucks. but it mostly works in the context of THAT game and series. which they didn’t steal wholesale, just the guy.
November 14, 2025 at 3:10 PM
so... this is happening
Metroid Prime 4: Beyond looks, runs, and feels fantastic, sticking close to the Prime blueprint.

But, my time with it was dragged down by an annoying sidekick bombarding Samus with unwanted hints, quippy jokes, and cries for help.

Whee1M1 is a real good title but may I suggest Midwest E1M0 instead
I made a joke in my main Discord server about DOOM E1M1 being in a major key and @abigbagofkeys.sickonedude.com actually made it. Jesus fucking Christ listen to this hahahaha
