That puzzle where you have to close the DS to make an imprint on the map on the lower screen changed my brain chemistry. This is the best Zelda game btw stop being a coward about touch controls.

Taking this all very seriously for a character that once evaded capture by dressing as a whole clown. And don't forget the pigeon that did a double-take...

Found Shenmue 2 in a shop the other day and had to buy it. Then when I got home I saw that my copy from release day way back in 2001 has “For Display Only” on it! That’s weird. Why does it say that??

Wrote an essay about playing Death Stranding after my wife and I lost our baby boy, how it was the most emotionally devastating media I’ve ever engaged with, and how it and its sequel have helped me feel whole in 2025.
Boy I’d like this to be published.
Grateful anyway.
Wish you were here, son.
