Picked up an Xbox Ally X to use for indie game build testing — but also because I have not played a game on a PC for more than 20 minutes in like… 15 years. Almost everything has been seamless — except for fucking Rockstar making it a nightmare to play their games.

I’ve probably touched the most versions of Halo 2 outside of the OG Bungie (even E3 demo IN 2003). But running potato resolution emulation with Shaderglass is probably the most transcendent experience I’ve had with it in decades. The screen door effect is REAL.

Do film guys have favorite boom operators? Favorite key grips?

I don’t give a single shit about a single sport in real life… let alone a simulation. But playing NFL Blitz 2003 or NBA JAM hits a dopamine rush that the most casual, or high-minded games can’t drag out of me. It’s not nostalgia; it’s just The Stuff.

@_TheSmartAlec1 Audiences now really seem to struggle with the idea that characters can lie to eachother.

'OBSESSION' director Curry Barker has revealed the first plot details for his next horror film ‘ANYTHING BUT GHOSTS.’ The movie follows two con artist ghost hunters whose fake paranormal business spirals out of control after encountering a very real dark entity, per @CBR.

What are we doing here? The Dogs of Hell, Mexican cartel, the Kitchen Irish, and a government conspiracy killed Frank’s family. The Gnuccis should hate Frank bc he killed them to protect a young man he worked construction with after a robbery gone wrong.

The Punisher Kills A Building is the kind of actual kind of silly the She-Hulk haters think yellow Daredevil is.

Look, I loved Berthal’s Castle in Daredevil, and appreciate his whole “arthouse meathead” cinema thing. But I didn’t give a shit about this until half way in when Judith Light showed up.

@the_snickman @basedgizmo I’ve been thinking the same thing every episode. I don’t think anything has come close to embodying the specific blend of what’s both funny and scary about the original Ghostbusters as this show.

@basedgizmo It’s so good. Makes the best case that Feig has been holding Dippold back and she needs another crack at Ghostbusters.

Widow’s Bay perfectly understands that making the tense scenes scarier actually makes the humor that much funnier in a horror comedy.

@JackyWackyDA Agreed. But there’s also a great SECOND Daredevil in jail story after he successfully argues in the Supreme Court that superhero identities are separate, and crimes, complaints and served time can be done under that separate identity. gizmodo.com/the-best-dared…

@Ian_Fisch @PaulTassi And yeah, while folks absolutely upgraded, when you had limited money to replace your media, it wasn’t immediate. The character has vinyl, cassettes, and also some CDs. Cassette was the easiest way to pirate from radio at the time when you couldn’t afford new music.

@Ian_Fisch @PaulTassi Answering in good faith/earnest. The game is closer to ‘95, and they have dialog directly explaining that she only has the ability to burn CDs with a $30k machine at her school; which she no longer has access to since they are leaving/graduating.

Serious question what is the activism in a game about a bunch of straight white kids getting drunk in the 90s
WJFindláich@WJFindlaich

@PaulTassi Because activism and astroturfing does not belong in gaming. It really is that simple.

@kainey_ But very specifically Year One. And also ironically muddying everything with TDKR.
