Did golden light pour out of the box when you opened it?

“We happy?”

“We happy.”

Duke Nukem makes sense. Half-Life does not. Half-Life stars a nerdy scientist who just wants to live, and the game is carried by its story.

Pong, reimagined as a boomer shooter!

Imagine taking an old phone out of the junk drawer and suddenly having another Steam Deck.

Even really old smartphones would work as a portable retro console.

Eneloop.

It would have to have something like a VR mode.

Or the ENTIRE planet of Nirn that you can walk from one side of to the other.

Microsoft.

Let’s give DC to the company turning the most widespread OS into AI spyware.

Nintendo watching a company they’re trying to sue out of existence expand into another category they don’t own:

“ZZZT!” - Will Wright

Japan is a treasure trove of PC98 games and software of which the only surviving copy might be rotting in a pawn shop right now.

Reminds me how you can effectively nullify all the secret agents in Evil Genius by building dozens of huts outside with locked doors that lead to dead end hallways rigged with pop-up dummies.

The fact that there’s a locked door entices them to waste time cracking it open. Once inside, they get jumped by a dummy and shoot it then become confused because it’s not real. Eventually they get so confused they leave the hut. They the AI’s pathfinding sees the same damn door which has locked itself again. Wash, rinse repeat.

Sometimes they get mad and start shooting the traps until they explode, which injures them and convinces them to just go home. Once they leave, rebuild the damaged hut and wait for the next secret agent.

Turns out if you make a solid mobile game, it performs well.

The Mac is a gaming tundra. Habitable, but not very.

“(or if someone we don’t like is using them)”

That Daedra shouldn’t have been walking alone at night.

Was it the introduction of Nitro?

Waiting for a company to loudly raise their prices.

“YEEHAW!! Lord Trump is bravely losing to the Chinese so we’re passing that loss on to YOU!”

“Fuck it, we’ll patch it live!”
