People who argue "who cares it's just for kids" all I can say is fuck right off. Kids deserve thoughtful, well-made movies that challenge them just as much as adults do. Kids aren't stupid, and they remember how movies affect them basically forever.

Capcom with Mega Man, Breath of Fire, all of their fighting games, etc: If even a single title underperforms, we're shelving this series for years

Capcom with Dead Rising sequels for some reason:

"Are you a computer man? I have a, you know, a Compaq 2, you know, the 286. It's called a Compaq 286. You know, 20 megabyte hard drive. And I use, I use, you know, word processing, database, and spreadsheet, which is tremendous help." - Stanley Kubrick in 1987

53 year ago today on Nov 29, 1972, Pong was released in the US. Wikipedia says it's the "the first commercially successful video game", but I think this metric hides the importance of true pioneers. Regardless, Pong sparked the arcade industry, and is responsible in part for the rise of video games.

LucasArts had so many internal tools, but to make levels their FPS games "Dark Forces" and "Outlaws" they just used the good old AutoCAD. Here are shots of "Outlaws" maps being worked on in AutoCAD R13 for Windows:

After my movie yesterday I stumbled on this old DVD and went ‘fuck it’ for 100yen

Thing that’s neat about it is that it appears to have been a pre order bonus (?) for Last Remnant, but contains THIRTY trailers for that and a lot of other games

All based on Square Enix’s initial 360 slate

The PS2 truly is the best console ever because it is constantly becoming more powerful. Each time we say something "looks like a PS2 game" we're talking about a game of a higher fidelity than the last. What the PS2 is capable of in 2025 is so far beyond what it was capable of in 2003. That's amazing
