It died with Dreamcast but the console was certainly not the cause.

I don't think I've completed a single one this year as I like to bounce around and play lots.

Most of the games I play are also single player and none of this "games as a service" crap so I am very bad at finishing anything.

That was a nice article. A sensible way to make a game and I hope it does well.

 

The Dreamcast has its very own Holiday classic, and it's called Blue Stinger. Regulars Brian, Harvey and Lewis are joined by friend of the Junkyard Dominic (Dreamcast Enjoyer on YouTube), to talk all about this misunderstood (and absolutely nuts) ...

Why not both?

I use my little Kobo for reading in bed or when out and about but prefer an actual book if I can. Also I don't buy many and use the local library most of the time.

no time to admire the view

Apparently everyone wants instant gratification and we need to be on to the next scripted moment, then the next one, and the next... No time to admire anything you see.

The best thing about Gamepass is all the non-AAA games that I wouldn't normally get to play because there is a lot more variety in them.

The store page literally says "steam deck playable"...

Also with this you will get a key to add the game(s) to your Steam library.

I'm not even sure what I just read...

IMDB has it listed with a budget of approx $350,000,000 which is insane!

[–] B0NK3RS 11 points 6 days ago

I feel like this is lost on most people nowadays which is sad.

Are both screenshots from the same library?

The shared library probably doesn't allow downloads.

[–] B0NK3RS 1 points 1 week ago

I don't doubt what you say but there is a whole other audience that don't care, want or need it to be on Steam. I'd assume the crossover between open-source fans and Steam isn't much... and commercial success isn't the focus.

You don't need to wishlist it though?

I know a Steam release is planned down the line but it is a free game so you gain nothing by having it on Steam compared to standalone version.

 

I remember I went in to this blind when it was released because of a radio appearances by Paul Giamatti and some fascinating stories he told. It is a lot more thoughtful than the "Christmas comedy" tag would suggest and is full of amazing characters.

I'd welcome any recommendations from the community too if you have any favourite festive movies.

Are there any Squad 44 players out there? It was called Post Scriptum up until last year when new developers took over and started to revive the game. I believe a small mod team was given the task of updating/fixing the game and so far its been a stellar job.

This is the much anticipated Pacific Front update due late January/early February and with public testing starting soon.

 

Driving the M35 Mako is very tedious (and frustrating) but is good for screenshots.

I love a game set in the snow/winter. Something about it just makes games much more enjoyable.

before the remaster or whatever they did to the game this year...

 

History has done Saturn dirty

8BitMod's VMU Pro: Beyond Dreams

The VMU Pro from 8BitMods is not just living up to its name – it's exceeding expectations. This updated version of the Dreamcast memory card offers more storage, a color screen, and the ability to play MP3s.

But perhaps most exciting for classic gamers is its capability to run Doom, an iconic first-person shooter from id Software. The video footage shows impressive performance with better framerate than the SNES and 32X combined.

Better framerate than the SNES and the 32X combined 😆

Next-Generation Retro Gaming

This VMU Pro joins other products from 8BitMods aimed at enhancing Dreamcast enthusiasts' experiences, such as the VM2.


Is the VMU Pro just a nostalgic curiosity, or do you think it offers enough value to justify its cost in today's gaming landscape?

This is how I connected for PSO.

I’ve mostly hunted on Ragol years ago when lately I decided to start over to avoid playing the Ultimate difficulty at level 74 to 75.

I've been playing TLD on & off for around 8 years now and the art style still amazes me.
