There was an arcade beat-'em-up simply called Cadillacs and Dinosaurs which I believe is considered pretty good. I remember watching the show as a kid and enjoying it, but that could have just been lower standards at the time. After all, I have a sneaking regard for the pretty corny BattleTech cartoon that was released around the same time…
Loadstar: The Legend of Tully Bodine and I believe also Cadillacs and Dinosaurs: The Second Cataclysm. Both FMV-laden turds.
Elon Musk trying to make himself out to be a god gamer is such a lose/lose situation; the people who care are also the ones who are going to be the quickest to call him out on his bullshit and other people either don’t care or make the logical conclusion that the time expenditure required would be prohibitive for his supposed job of CEO of multiple companies. It’s just such a hilarious self-own.
Also, a reminder that Musk was a junior programmer on two of the worst Sega CD games.
The Nobel Prize committee really seem to be trying hard to make this the worst set of awardees ever, aren’t they? All we need is another Kissinger-esque situation for the Peace Prize and a Handke-esque situation for the Literature prize and they’ll have disgraced the Nobel Prizes permanently.
Ballbag Srinivasan still at his old tricks.
certainly the man is due respect
How about no?
As somebody who fell into the deep end of a pool when I was younger of my own accord and took a decade or so to learn how to swim after that, I can say that’s the sort of thing that’s gonna fuck that kid up badly. Even today, I’m not entirely comfortable in the water.
being as thorough and then some as I could ever hope to be
That’s not the flex you think it is.
Edward Snowden has struck me for a very long time as one of the most prominent cases of stopped-clock theory. It doesn’t surprise me at all that he’s a coiner.
They failed at that before Denuvo was even developed; their predecessor company developed SecuROM, which I was burnt with a couple of times. Once bitten, twice shy.
I’m inclined to think the Mega Drive port is actually more enjoyable than the arcade version, even if it gives up a bit in terms of graphics and sound. It’s definitely the version I prefer to play. It is always interesting, though, to see how widely Sega’s arcade games were ported in that era, even considering that they were console manufacturers themselves.
Well, yeah. They’re also partially responsible for the anti-choice movement in Ireland.
Actually used to be a member of a forum focusing on the Golden Sun games. I was very impressed with them back in the day; they felt like a prime SNES-era JRPG designed for the GBA. I especially liked how the Psynergy system was used for puzzles outside of combat; non-combat uses of magic is something I’ve considered to be lacking in JRPGs generally, so it was a nice curiosity.
My line is at the transition from 2d to 3d mostly.
Strictly speaking, the two co-existed long before 3D became the vogue on consoles; Revs is a proper racing simulator in 1984.
I’ve played Colossal Cave Adventure on an ICL 2900-series mainframe from the 1980s at The National Museum of Computing in Bletchley.
Most of the things Psygnosis did; the Wipeout series, G-Police and Colony Wars being the most obvious choices. Tomb Raider is another good one, as are the Tony Hawk games. X-COM: Enemy Unknown is meant to be a solid port of the classic turn-based tactics game. I’ve heard praise for the Twisted Metal games and Syphon Filter, but haven’t played them myself. While I know that old sports games are often considered anathema in the retrogaming sphere, Jonah Lomu Rugby is often considered one of the best games depicting rugby union ever made.
I feel like it still starts off too credulous towards the rationalists, but it’s still an informative read.
Between them, Scientology and the libertarians, what the fuck is it with these people and boats?
