- Comment on Rebellion's just surprise rebooted Speedball and released it on Steam 3 weeks ago:
The thing about Speedball II was that it was made by The Bitmap Brothers. You can remake their games all you want, but it’s always going to miss the X factor without the Bros.

This was something I found strange in the new Alien: Romulus film, why were the temperature readings in a science vessel for a space faring civilisation in Fahrenheit!?

The Vita is such a quality homebrew and emulation device, I’ve taken it in holiday and it’s getting more use than my Steam Deck (which I love too)

Keeping what you’re working on available.

Never use your desktop to store shortcuts, unless they are very temporary, and then clear up often.
You have a taskbar and start menu to organise and find everything you need, you can even do startup applications.

- Comment on Any recommendations for PS Vita games? 8 months ago:
I picked up one the other week for similar reasons to you, and apart from the other suggestions you’ve received I would recommend:
- Olli Olli - quick to play skateboarding game
- Helldivers - still find MP games
- Grim Fandango - get it for the soundtrack
- Comment on Monthly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing? 11 months ago:
Remnant From the Ashes: They call it a Souls-like with guns, I’m not sure I totally agree, but there are similarities with the checkpoints and NG+ mechanic. It’s a shortish game. Plays well in coop, and is made tomplay through a few times as levels are procedurally generated. The second game is out now, but there are still players on this.
Astral Ascent: Kind of a rogue-like action platformer, the game seems straightforward at the beginning but as you try new runs and unlock more skills there is a very deep build and progression system where you can get super powerful and the screen goes wacky. Also the music and atmosphere is top notch
- Comment on [I just watched] Spider-Man - Across the Spider-Verse 1 year ago:
I definitely enjoyed it, but I found it tiring to watch at times, not only did I have to concentrate on all the motion during the expansive fight and traversal scenes but during that time the characters didn’t shut up!
So much chat and quips with intense action, it got hard to really follow at times.

I hope this series picks up, I feel like S2 was a bit too self aware
- Comment on Looking for game recommendations 1 year ago:
From the looks of your lists of what you like and what to avoid I think you’d like games like the Dishonored series, Bioshock, and the System Shock remake.

I do know, but it’s not my place to change your beliefs, you need to do that yourself.
- Comment on Chevy Chase Bashes ‘Community’: “The Show Wasn’t Funny Enough” 1 year ago:
That, my dude, is something you will have to take a journey on.
- Comment on Chevy Chase Bashes ‘Community’: “The Show Wasn’t Funny Enough” 1 year ago:
No, they are totally not related, critical theory is from the 1930s, Woke is from 2010
- Comment on Chevy Chase Bashes ‘Community’: “The Show Wasn’t Funny Enough” 1 year ago:
It’s not the same as critical theory, but it does have a crossover in concerns

Amazing thank you
- Comment on What to play after experiencing Chrono Trigger? 1 year ago:
Can you give me some tips?
I’ve come back to this game to give it another shot since it was originally released, I never really enjoyed it or got past the first entry into the future.
This time round I’ve just gained access to the prehistoric world, although I’m not sure I should visit here yet, and I have got parts of the Masamune sword, I beat the two kids recently, but I’m basically lost and without a quest log in game I don’t know what ime supposed to be doing next, any ideas?

Have you ever done Bruce Lee comparison?

Yeah Rockstar put so much into the world building for Liberty City. The writing was really good.
- Comment on I'm still blown away by GTA IV's openness 1 year ago:
The best and I mean BEST play through to do is what’s called The Possible Trinity, it involves playing GTA IV and it’s 2 expansions, The Ballad of Gay Tony and The Lost and the Dammed missions in a specific chronological order.
It really makes the excellent writing standout and is like being part of an interactive drama series that’s like The Sopranos and The Wire.

It’s my favourite gaming memory ever.
