@Midenginecessna @capybaroness 3D platformer game with a lot of variety to the gameplay and an enjoyable story. it's worth a playthrough if the somewhat clunky controls don't put you off, I think it's on GOG.

@DayRember @capybaroness I have never heard of it, Half Life means nothing to me but I've heard of it. being genuine

there is nothing like this game in the annals of Never Coming Out history. when this trailer released people were astonished that the game was finally ready to show something after 14 years. that was NINE years ago. it's taken so long to come out that the original director DIED.

I love this, the mix of Mario and the real life locations reminds me of Mario is Missing / Mario's Time Machine

@ChristinaTasty I like friendslop

The single use plastic of game genres.

I'm going to play every game made by Thatgamecompany just to remind people that Sony used to publish tiny but artsy games instead of throwing all its money into live service games that no one gives a shit about.

It is I, Dr. Mobius, transmitting from my dome-shaped... dome in the Forbidden Zone. A zone... that is, yes... forbidden to you

@Gaigous I hope you're right, I guess we'll see. Kind of nice to see someone finally tell AAA game devs to make games within a reasonable time frame again.

It's like no one was actually paying attention to the news coming out of Xbox this last week. Every Game Studio under Xbox suffered from a lack of project managers with cohesive vision, the game developers were like a bunch of chickens with their heads cut off. So they had no real leadership role at any of the game studios for years, and even worse they had to run every single game through a filter of 14 MIDDLE MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENTS, that means 14 layers of Woke Leftist DEI insanity, which are being reformed and reduced to 5. Judging them by output from a period of absolute dysfunction doesn't work as a heuristic when that dysfunction is being actively purged from the company.

あるある過ぎてやばい🤣

@Shpigford @X Your extension is the kind of functionality that would be built into a browser by default, if modern browsers weren't just thinly-veiled data harvesting programs.

Current estimation of views here on @X from the past 48 hours of virality: ~25 million What an absolute ridiculous couple of days it’s been!

Knockoff is now live! Filter out the knockoff crap brands on Amazon. Sorry to brands like WNPETHOME, EHEYCIGA, YXYL, LU&MN, JOYIN, TOMY, GODONLIF, YOOJEE, LINGTENG, LANEIGE, VISCOO, BIODANCE, COOFANDY, BALENNZ, TOSY and LUENX. knockoff.shopping

@Shpigford this is amazing dude, it's like using Amazon from 2010. well done.

I am beyond sick of seeing "it's not X, it's y" writing

Did a little research into this "85% of games bought on Playstation are digital". So I decided to look at the EXACT wording of what that meant. Spoiler: Its not "Out of 100 copies of Spiderman sold, 85% are digital" Here's how they calculate it. Digital Units sold, Divided by Total Units sold, times 100. Straight forward right? In Q4 of 2025, sony sold 74.6 million units in total, that is both Digital and Physical units. But the "85% of all games bought are digital" has a HUGE skew to it. Why? Because there are THOUSANDS of DIGITAL only games that do not get a PHYSICAL release. Think the 5$-20$ indie titles or digital only ports of older games. However, those digital sales are counted AGAINST the physical sales. Meaning? Even if EVERYONE who stopped buying Physical in the past 5 years, went out and bought one game a month? Digital will still dominate physical because (mostly) everything thats physical is also digital, but very little that is digital is also physical. The Comparison is not fair and when its thrown around on social media its literally framed in a way for the stat to prove how dominant Digital sales are while excluding a number of factors. Doing so would be like comparing Your local Wal-Mart's stock to Amazon. Not only that, but there are many digital only sales that are held that puts STEEP discounts on games that in-store simply cannot do. Of course there are some games that are on sale in-store that are not on sale digitally, but those digitally only games ALSO go on sale which the retailer has Zero access to because its digital only. There's also digital incentives where buying the game digitally grants you more content vs buying it in store, driving more sales. Then, there are some games that release digitally, and then have a physical release MONTHS later; or, allow you to play the game a few days early. If you wanted a more fair comparison? It would be "Digital media with a simultaneous Physical Release vs The Physical Release" Having this stat would reveal the true number. But even THAT number is missing details because that also doesn't include people buying the game second hand/Used from GameStop. However, while Im sure that stat would STILL benefit digital sales, I would suggest and conclude that it wouldn't be "85%" as many people are suggesting. Sources: sony.com/en/SonyInfo/IR…

@Toadsanime That empty space on the map select screen will haunt me forevermore.

The Megabonk developer made a very successful game, and seemingly disappeared from the internet with his many millions, rather than keep updating the game, and I think that's wonderful

Kekking so hard at the idea of a bewildered Anglo watching a little half-dead jeet baby on fire outrun a group of fully-grown Indian men like a live-action Looney Tunes cartoon.

I went to In-N-Out and ordered a cheeseburger. The cashier, a calm young woman named Destiny, asked me a question I did not expect. "You want that Animal Style?" I paused. I did not know what this meant. But a samurai does not admit he does not know. So I answered with weight. "...Animal Style." "Cool. So that's mustard-grilled, extra spread, grilled onions, pickles. Yeah?" I understood now. This was a sacred permission. For one meal, I was being told to put down my manners at the door. To eat the way a beast eats, without shame. I had waited my whole life for someone to give me this order. "Yes," I said. "I will become the animal." Destiny did not blink. "...Okay. You want your fries Animal Style too?" I stopped. Even the potatoes? "The potatoes also become animals?" "I mean, they get cheese and sauce and grilled onions, so..." "Then yes. Let the potatoes abandon their restraint as well." "...Got it." She was the calmest woman I have ever met. "3x3, 4x4, or just the one?" I did not know these numbers, but I knew a challenge when I heard one. "How many must I face?" "It's, like, how many patties you want." "How many is the most honorable?" "...Four is a lot." "Then four. A warrior does not ask for fewer." She wrote it down without argument. A 4x4, Animal Style, with animal fries. She warned me once, kindly. "That's gonna be huge." I told her I was counting on it. It arrived. It was a tower. Cheese and sauce ran down my hands the moment I lifted it. There was no clean way to eat it. There was no dignified way. That was the entire point. I ate it like a beast. Both hands, no honor, grilled onion on my chin, and I have to be honest with you, it was the best thing I have ever put in my mouth. For thirty years I have kept my manners at every table in the world. They handed me a burger and told me to be an animal, and I have never felt so free. So tell me, America. The whole country knows the secret menu. What else are you hiding in plain sight? And "Animal Style." Was I eating the animal, or finally becoming one?

this one aged like a fine wine 🤌
