Pretty much a spiritual successor. Like how Cities Skyline is Sim City but newer.

What! There’s no way Trump uses Strava…

Oh, the bodyguards… that makes sense and is kinda smart to investigate.

At least wish him well on his recovery.
- Comment on I rented many games solely based on their covers, only to be mildly disappointed when I got home. 3 weeks ago:
I was playing the 20th anniversary edition recently and they have developer commentary built into the game with little activated speech bubbles spread throughout a few levels. It was neat hearing them talk about how they targeted 20fps from a certain location on the map for a 486 SX 33, so to reach that they deleted a few pixels here and there.

I still remember swapping out my 486 SX 33Mhz with a 486 DX 100! I could finally play Duke Nukem 3D properly. Some areas got down to a frame every 2 seconds with the old processor.

OMG that’s so cool!

Gonna make good use of those 33Mhz!
Sometimes I forget that CPU clock speeds were talked about in Mhz instead of Ghz.

I somehow missed Bad Street Brawler and went for Bad Dudes because I played that one at the arcade. Wasn’t nearly as good as the arcade version though.

The character sprites were 16x24 in combat, so a whole 384 pixels to work with!

Was hoping for one of those super special interactive comics for #3000.
- Comment on If I lose the spread gun, I start over. 4 weeks ago:
Does it do this better than the spread? I’m trying to think of what part of the game this advice would work…

To me it’s unethical to let someone suffer until they finally pass.

Dirty power? Aww geez it’s been a few years since I last washed and waxed my power lines. Guess I gotta open up the walls again.
- Comment on Good PS5 controller? 1 month ago:
Oh I thought maybe the off brands kept breaking. Is there no warranty on the controllers? Credit cards will often extend manufacturer warranties too.
- Comment on Good PS5 controller? 1 month ago:
Why not buy a playstation brand controller? I bought one even though I don’t have a ps5 and it’s been great for pc gaming.

I love Double Dragon games. This looks very … stiff.
My favorite is still Double Dragon Neon.
- Comment on Sony Increases PS5 Controller Prices in US, Europe, and More 2 months ago:
I don’t have a PS5 but bought a controller. The first time I was playing a game that supported that feature, I thought my shoulder buttons had broken somehow. I suddenly had to press very hard after pressing the button halfway, and it was clicking. It clicked a bit later that it was a feature when it wasn’t happening all the time, just when doing a certain thing in the game.

You don’t need a different device, just root it and unlock the bootloader to disable the AI stuff..
- Comment on Castlevania Dominus Collection – Launch Trailer 2 months ago:
Doesn’t look like any updates or changes, and updated with “Save states and rewinds”. So why buy this instead of emulate the originals?
- Comment on Gearbox founder says Epic Games Store hopes were “misplaced or overly optimistic” 2 months ago:
I went and played a few games. You’re right, the cybertruck is the worst looking car in the game by far.
- Comment on Gearbox founder says Epic Games Store hopes were “misplaced or overly optimistic” 2 months ago:
I haven’t seen it, but I thought it might be better than the Grog or Scarab.
- Comment on Gearbox founder says Epic Games Store hopes were “misplaced or overly optimistic” 2 months ago:
Oh really? I haven’t played since they disabled trading items.
I mean, the cyber truck probably looks better than some of the other cars, and you’ll probably get better FPS due to the lowered polygon count! But yeah… no bueno.
- Comment on Gearbox founder says Epic Games Store hopes were “misplaced or overly optimistic” 2 months ago:
I gave it a chance when they took over Rocket League. The damn platform doesn’t even support profile avatars while Steam did. So to get a basic nice feature working all you had to do was… not use their platform.
They still don’t have avatars.

Me too. I get squirrels and bunnies in my feed, but no capybaras.
