I've been writing for Hardcore Gamer since its first issue in 2005, which may be a long time to do anything but it hasn't gotten boring yet. james (at) hardcoregamer (dot) com
Embargoed trailer so I'm not going to grumble about the game but I can say that any time I see this type of run animation I die on the inside. Stop it, it's stupid! Let your character have some dignity rather than being defined by a trope refined beyond the point of anything any human has ever done.

I also question the accuracy of this listing in the add-ons section. Seems maybe just a touch generous for the price.

Really looking forward to checking Mouseward out when I get home. Right now, though, is-

Reminder to myself when I get home from vacation. Win11 is still new and Copilot needs to be burned out at the roots.

Time to head back.

You can’t tell me what to do!

I don’t indulge much in nostalgia but Sega CD is an exception. More please, @limitedrungames.com!

Time-attack scores nothing to brag about, but-

(Also, 21% for three levels? Hoping that's just a bit of demo weirdness)

I wasn’t quite sure what to expect from Tokyo Fears Rhapsody but had been curious. Turns out it’s a goofy-ass manga that I can’t quite call shonen-parody, but maybe? Definitely falls under being a guilty pleasure.

In other news, the first two episodes of May I Ask For One Final Thing? are out and yeah, that's a fun one!

Made my wife an avatar of the main character, although it's a bit sepia due to being a flashback.

Ah, so that's why the news articles are saying @hamishsteele.bsky.social's Dead End: Paranormal Park is a kids show. It's rated TV-Y7 because there's no blood, swearing, or nudity in it. That doesn't mean the storylines are kid-oriented, just that it tells them without harsher content.

Why did I spend all this time cleaning up that section of the back area when nobody on Earth ever goes or looks there? First picture is halfway done.

I don’t want to have to talk about today’s giant steps to fascism, or state that I’m antifa, or reiterate that Israel <3s genocide. I want to talk about whatever messy eater disemboweled a pine cone on my back porch railing.
