I picked up a copy of Extreme G for the first time and there's something about seeing it barely whizz by, the scenery looking like it's fighting to contain itself, that just screams magic to me. Really adore how this looks set to PVM as well.

Been playing MK64 with my girlfriend this morning and I've just sat down to play a bit of Perfect Dark. Genuinely stunning set to integer+ and unleashed overclock.

Really loved this! Listened to it in three sessions over the past weekend. It made me really miss my copy of RR5. Ridge Racer is one of those franchises that I just never seem to have out of my head for longer than a couple of days.

I'll resub to Retro when my income stabilises again!

Especially good news after dealing with the worst roof leak I've ever seen at my job yesterday. Ten hours straight with no breaks or food trying to, literally, stem the tide of destruction. Really weird that all disasters in that place wait for me to be in 🫠

I never even owned an Xbox at the time, I played it on the rare multiplayer session at a friend's house. I did, however, play the Silent Cartographer PC demo to death. It always had this mystical magic quality of the game that got away, the game I missed in the moment.
They can't remake that, obvs.

The more I think about this the more I realise that Halo CE is intrinsically linked with the original Xbox visuals, at least for me. Nostalgia plays a large part in this one for sure, but seeing that original game's visuals sparks something in me I can't describe.

I have a very long way to go before I'm even remotely fluent but I'm learning to actually feel proud about things I accomplish.
A second language has been something I've wanted to learn for a very long time!

In my case, I suffered severe burnout from work and spiralled from there, eventually believing I offered nothing to anyone. Brains are total ass holes.
I'm doing much better now though, thank you! My other really looked after me.

I sincerely hope you're in a good place now as well 😊
