I'm not wild about the base building or repetitive MMO-style quests in Dune Awakening, but I am loving it as an Arrakis simulator: dodging sandworms, managing water, doing the slow-blade-through-the-armour thing, and looking at cool Dune stuff.

Beware of the Cartographer! Demo on Steam Map a mysterious land during the Age of Enlightenment between two warring kingdoms. The game’s 20 minute demo will introduce you the basics of cartography, the strange happenings in Runnymere, and the...

Enjoyed this demo. A game about using cartography tools to map a border. Really fun, snappy dialogue, nice art, and an interesting historical setting. Reminds me of a Nintendo DS puzzle/adventure game, with a little hint of Pentiment too.

Yeah, finishing From Russia With Love the other day gave me a taste for more Bondage.

“I do play PlayStation. I have a PS2 console and it is awesome... It is amazing. PS one is still great, but the graphics and the concepts on PS2 are incredibly realistic… I had PS2 in my trailer for American Pie II. Me and the rest of the guys would get into some heated games.”

This 2002 press release of 'celebrity testimonials' for the PS2 is an absolutely incredible time capsule.

A row of debug PS2 consoles with names including DENNIS HOPPER (reliable, runs old games and test code), RASPUTIN (very old + dead), and JOHNNY CASH (old and unreliable).

Old photo from the PSM days. Debug PS2s were so temperamental that we had to give them names to reflect their personalities. They all had their own quirks and flaws and weird sounds they made. Some would run certain games, others wouldn't. Not pictured: Tom Cruise, the one that always worked.

This bit in the From Russia With Love game made me laugh out loud. You've got a fairly grounded, low key fight based on the one in the movie, then the most video game looking fucker of all time slides into frame.

Although it's weird that, because of some rights dispute, SPECTRE are referred to as 'Octopus' throughout.

Just finished the hot new game everyone's talking about, From Russia With Love (2005). Would love someone to do another '60s themed Bond game. The last level was the best: a big, proper Bond villain's lair full of lakes of lava, ostentatious architecture, and bad bastards in jumpsuits.
