Six weeks prior to Halo: CE shipping, 16 player multiplayer over LAN was not functioning.
It took dedicated engineers and a lot of people in test undergoing intense crunch to save that feature.

What strikes me most upon every rewatch of Fulci's singular gothic nightmare CITY OF THE LIVING DEAD (1980) is the acute fear that death might not be permanent, that life like the past is a state of recurrence, of suppressed resurface that can be cruel, bestial & anything but peaceful.

People will tell you "oh yeah if you just block the okizeme mixup then the character is free after that." But then you get to the okizeme mixup and it looks like this.

I think choice is becoming a victim of technological advances and player expectations. If you choose whether Bob or Jim live in a SNES RPG, you’ve got a different set of pixels and text boxes. Now you‘ve got a new set of voice lines, Hollywood tier animations, etc.
Thinking about it, the original Deus Ex may be the king of choice in a game with a story, because your choices are significant, linked to gameplay and unforced. From the very start, for instance, whether you use or avoid lethal force against the “terrorists” determines something about you.

Second Spooky game of the year finished! Dark Tales from the Lost Soul. A pretty cool and short FMV game (about an hour and a half or two hours long) with three horror stories in which you have to react to events and make decisions that change the course of the story and the ending.

people on here apparently need to learn a lesson most of us learn in elementary school, which is that it’s fucking rude to correct people on zero stakes things and doing so leads rightfully to social ostracism

This is a good post about its specific subject and a great post about how to do anything cool on game production deadlines without having it get cut (being very intentional about where you drop the quality bar)
Six years ago, I wrote most of the Tragedian dialogue for Pathologic 2 in iambic pentameter. I'm back now doing the same for Pathologic 3. I figured it was helpful to write a guide on *how* I did it – in case I get hit by a bus and the team has to carry on without me.

Flying high in SVGA skies. Flight Simulator 5.1 was the first of the long-running series to be distributed on CD-ROM, putting the tech to good use with incorporating satellite imagery and fancier weather effects.

Mario & Wario gets its first western release ever today thanks to NSO! Developed by Game Freak and directed by Satoshi Tajiri of Pokemon fame, you use the mouse to guide Mario to the goal while dodging obstacles. This has been one of my most anticipated NSO releases so I’m glad it’s finally here!
