Whenever I'm outside and I see the car you beat up in Street Fighter 2 I point at it and say "that's the car you beat up in Street Fighter 2"

Vitamins, water, sunlight, exercise, going outside, and proper sleep hygiene would fix me

some different colors and slight variations - It think the next step is to give the swirls, plumes and jets a bit more definition.

I tried to change the refraction method I was going for to a cubemap instead of layered front and back faces and somehow ended up here so that's fine. The shit looks like a portal through time and space now and I'm okay with that all dice should look like that anyway.

Brad Fang, heroic sunglasses-wearing cyborg werewolf, attacks aggressively, peppering a giant enemy robot with roaring machine gun fire until it explodes excessively, even by Konami standards.

Cautiously advancing through a bogey-riddled post-apocalyptic junkyard, Brad disturbs a gang of ravens who frantically flap away into the sunset, crying foul.

Rampaging through the jungle, Brad looses furious fire punch after fire punch on waves of marauding pygmies. There's a colonialist flavor to this scenario that is unpalatable, frankly.

A massive alien demon emerges from behind a raging waterfall, insectoid proboscis extruding from its chitinous armor, empty eyes fixed on our hero. Brad, who came prepared, roasts that sucker with a flamethrower.

Capcom vs. SNK 2
Sega Dreamcast, 2001
Capcom

It's Fighting Game Friday, it's Masterpiece December, that means it's CVS2 time.

#crt #retrogaming #fgc

On a downtown rooftop painted red by the setting sun, SNK's Athena and Rock Howard exchange exploratory first strikes in what will soon become a deadly serious game of death.

On a bustling British street corner, Capcom's Maki (from the Final Fight franchise) boldly challenges SNK's nefarious Ryuji Yamazaki, eager to wipe the dastardly smirk off his face and restore justice to a world gone mad.

In an ornate temple not befitting such boorishness, SNK's good-hearted ronin Haohmaru attempts a wild overhead strike on opponent SNK's Hibiki Takane, who, like a fastidious scholar, read his movements and has prepared a devastating parry.

In the neon glow of the big city, Capcom's Chun-Li delivers a stunning blow to the belly of SNK's Kim Kaphwan, who simply cannot believe it that this has happened. He really thought he was going to face 3rd Strike Chun-Li and not be destroyed.

I seem to be an outlier with my negative response to this - great that they're doing it now happy for them etc. but the article literally ends with a plug for the products. Either stand for something or don't jfc.

ModRetro making a handheld pointedly advertised as made from "attack drone metal."

"When someone tells you who and what they are, believe them."

If you cover this you are complicit. This is an intentional attempt to more normalise, but make "cool" tools of genocide. I am beyond disgusted.

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.
