How do you differentiate old from new? I can just create a fresh copy of whatever I’m storing and it’ll look new.
- Comment on Was Donald Trump ever cool? 2 weeks ago:
Rappers used to rap about trying to be like Trump. I can even think of a skit where Method Man had him make a voice memo for him on one of his albums.
People idolized him because of his rich image, unfortunately.

It created a genre. And it was surprisingly competent at what it sent out to do. In hindsight it was a miracle. Brand new technology harnessed to birth the 3D platformer. It was amazingly ambitious all around.

Mega Man X. The first one for SNES.
It was such an evolutionary leap forward from the previous MM games. Everything was bigger and better. The graphics, the music, the controls. It blew my mind at the time.

To think the CD-i, 3DO, and Jaguar were all “next gen” only to have the PlayStation/N64/Saturn (hey it did really well in Japan) absolutely blow their doors off is hilarious in hindsight.
Granted, it was a very uncertain time in gaming. What did the market want? More bits? CD-ROM multimedia adventures? Something you can put on your entertainment center on top of your VCR that isn’t just for the kids? These were all promising directions at one point in time.
Ultimately, the PlayStation and Saturn would come along and refocus on the games themselves, making 64 bit gaming seem irrelevant and essentially killing FMV-based gaming. The arrival of the N64 would solidify this.
It was an interesting time in gaming. Units like the CD-i and 3DO commanded huge sums of money and offered very little back in the way of quality gaming. Some people bought into the hype thinking they were buying into the next generation when the industry took a very different direction.

And how do you determine who gets what they need when a given resource becomes scarce? Everything is finite. Human greed is also real. Do you just take someone at their word that they’re desperate for something when they may not be?

Because the last thing some people want to do is be accountable

Right. If you react to this news with disappointment, and believe me I’m disappointed, maybe it’s more a wake up call the support was never real to begin with. I feel we’re better off without such hollow gestures. Then again I’m not a part of a marginalized group and maybe it’s not that black and white.

- Comment on Which is better: F-Zero or Super Mario Kart (SNES)? 4 months ago:
Mario Kart simply for the entertainment the split screen mode brings.
Not to take anything away from F-Zero. The sense of speed was amazing for a console game. I dare say no console racing game at the time provided the thrills it did.
