Not sure how to do this. My partner and light of 19 years, Mitzi Starkweather has been diagnosed with metastatic (stage 4) breast cancer.
We are hopeful that modern treatment can give her many more years of changing the world.
If you’re able, we could use your help.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but someone ported the Infinity Blade series to PC and Android and now I’m partying like mobile games are good again

will kindly take that apology now from all the people who came after me for suggesting physical movies were next on the chopping block

This is private equity, this is what it does.
Buy up businesses, run them into the ground, and rip them apart for short-term profit.
The developers at BioWare know how to run the studio. They know how to make the games we all love. They should be given the first opportunity - and the federal support - to buy it and run it themselves.
And if we want to avoid the Mass Effect effect in Canada, we should be keeping private equity out, not welcoming it in.

i have many feelings about this. none of them good.
20 years ago people told me that jrpgs as a genre were now obsolete because of this studio’s work. they seemed bigger than god. at the absolute forefront. then i watched them get slowly strangled until now they’re just… gone.
EA is shutting down BioWare, the studio behind ‘Dragon Age’ and ‘Mass Effect’.
The next ‘Mass Effect’ game has been cancelled as a result.

In my next game, EXE.ORCIST, you aren’t just playing as any virtual exorcist.
You are Atlas, the best in the business.

Loved getting to be on this one with David! Really wasn’t sure where it was going to go with how heavy the subject matter was, but I’m happy with how positive it wound up by the end!

In what might be the most cracked episode of my podcast yet, @jackal27 and I FOLLOW THE MONEY and break down why the Skydance merger isn't the only recent takeover of western media by foreign governments... the Saudis have had their hand in gaming for some time now. LISTEN TODAY!

TIL that the opening of Onimusha 3 was directed by Takashi Yamazaki, director of Godzilla: Minus One!
Sadly, nearly every upload of it is a GenAI abomination. So, I ripped and upscaled what I consider the greatest video game cinematic ever from its 2007 PC release! Enjoy!

Also, yes this is obviously derived from a 480p source. Hoping and praying that Capcom releases a higher quality native render of this someday.

this was bar for bar exactly my takeaway when i demoed it last month.
캐슬바니아 벨몬트의 저주 데모 해봄
한마디로 평가하자면
넷플릭스 캐슬바니아의 색깔이 씌여진
데드셀 개발사가 만든 메트로베니아 게임
장점- 퀄리티는 문제가 없음
단점- 기존 악마성의 게임디자인 방향이랑 좀 달라서 기존팬들보다는 넷플릭스 캐슬바니아 팬들한테 먹힐지도

Thanks to @TipTopPatrick for introducing me to PAC & commissioning me to draw him -- extremely saddened to hear of his passing

This was THE match that brought me back to wrestling after 2 decades away. The physicality. The exhaustion. I finally saw what it meant to tell a story.
I can’t believe Pac is gone man. I just can’t believe it. What an artist. What a god. Rest in peace.

You can’t even comprehend how important Eien ni Hen’s work is to the fan translation community.
Romancing SaGa, Fire Emblem, Sakura Wars, Tear Ring Saga, Glory of Heracles, Dragon Force II, Dark Half, Beyond Oasis, Psi-O-Blade, Arabian Nights, and so much more.
What a loss. RIP
I've released a translation for My Eyes! on the X68000, PC-98 and FM-Towns. I didn't bother with any patching stuff, so download away. The translation was done by Eien ni Hen, who is no longer with us. May she rest in peace.
