I've played a decent amount (with diminishing returns) of 4, 5 and 6. Mostly online and local vs. IV is one of my favourite fighters of all time, adored it, and very much a complete package.
5 is good fun in the fights but everything around it is poor. 6 was an improvement on that at least.
The time I was finally able to get this, pick up a 6 button competition pro pad and not have to play on a SNES again for years. 🤣

“I have usernames older than you.”.
Holy shit
My favourite too! Seen a couple of live productions and have the Joss edition too.
I'll always have love for Macbeth though, goodness knows how many versions of that I've seen, including seeing Patrick Stewart play Macbeth in Chichester. 😁
Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM
Hello everyone. I come with the sad news that as you are no doubt already aware, we're saying goodbye to several of our friends and colleagues here at Eurogamer. Leaving us are Tom Orry, our editorial director; our video team of Ian Higton, Zoe Delahunty-Light, and Alix Attenborough; Alex Donaldson, our editor-at-large; and Will Judd, who worked across Digital Foundry, hardware and deals. I'll start with Tom, who over the past year-plus had made himself a hugely valuable source of advice, expertise, desert-dry humour and world class poker faces (I think we just about made him laugh once, for a moment, on his final day). Tom initially began the role when Tom Phillips was our editor-in-chief here, mostly working away diligently in the background in a two-Tom-tandem doing editorial director things, before taking on a more prominent role on the site itself over the past 11 or 12 months, gracing us with some signature console nostalgia and unjustifiably intense Project Gotham Racing enthusiasm. Tom, Dom, Alex and I, along with the rest of the team, worked together closely on what a 'new Eurogamer' might look like last year, and his experience in running multiple games media sites was consistently our rock to lean on. While he may have initially seemed an outsider of sorts compared to Eurogamer chiefs of old - at least to some on the surface, coming from his 20-plus years across our sister sites VG247 and USGamer, and before that the cult-favourite site he founded in our once-rival VideoGamer - I can't stress enough how much Tom 'got' Eurogamer. His goal was for us to be at the heart of the big stories that mattered most to our readers with original, diligent reporting and on-the-button commentary, and that will absolutely continue. In immaculately on-brand, limelight-dodging Orry style, Tom opted to sneak his farewell into this past weekend's What We've Been Playing column, but I'll be damned if he gets away with it that easily. Sorry Tom. Here's what he had to say…
From myself and the whole team at @eurogamer.bsky.social, a very fond farewell and huge thank you to our friends and colleagues (thread).💙

@chrisgpackham.bsky.social This fella dropped by to give an early warning for last orders.
With Octopath Traveler 0 in the rear view mirror, I've gone back to Dead Cells. I previously played up to 2BC on GamePass but now I'm starting from scratch on the PS5 with the complete Return to Castlevania edition.
Just cleared the first run and unlocked 1BC.
Game is a masterpiece.
Tapping the sign again:
Israel ≠ Jewish people. It IS NOT anti-Semitic to criticize Israel. It IS anti-Semitic to use the two interchangeably. Jews have no obligation to support Israel’s genocide. Aligning the two robs Jews of autonomy and makes our religion a tool for your political agenda.

The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive

Salma Yaqoob @SalmaYaqoob Almost feel sorry for the haters who are trying to spin Muslims voting for a woman in a party led by a gay Jewish man is evidence of Islamist sectarianism In fact it's evidence of genuine tolerance, rejection of superficial identity politics and ability to prioritise tackling common concerns of cost of living, protecting public services and rejecting war mongering. And the promotion of mutual respect and individual freedoms. The coming together of people is terrifying for the ruling elites.
Totally this.
The rightwing hate “journalists” are spinning Muslims voting for a woman in a party led by a gay Jewish man as Islamist sectarianism.
Now that MAGA vampires are scooping up the US's cinematic legacy, it's a good time to start stocking up on physical media.
Warner Archives puts out some of the most pristine prints of its library on Blu-Ray. Who knows if the greatest villains in US history will allow this to continue.

More of the games should have included playing Galaga or Galaxian during loading though 😁
it's all just art. "porn" is just art that makes you horny, in precisely the way that "horror" is art that makes you scared and "metroidvania" is art that makes you write video essays
Yeah as a Sinden user I can still see the case for that. I like mine but they are a pain in the arse.
Although I'm just about done with Octopath. Just trying to decide if I can be bothered with the last optional boss for the platinum. 🤔

Nintendo: Please buy the Switch 2 🥺
Sony: The PS6 is coming, yeah, but why rush?

Tbh I find it best to just not watch YouTube. Unless I'm trying to repair some kind of home appliance. 🤷🏻♀️

The NY Times dutifully reporting that the Supreme Court sided with Trump only 42% of the time and with Biden 54% of the time sort of leaves out the necessary context that Biden was doing normal, completely legal presidential stuff, and Trump was doing insane crimes
When I left Substack in Jan 2024 it was partly the Nazis but it was mostly because their response to the Nazis convinced me there was going to be no end to this sort of shit.
I found that in a charity shop for £3 a week after it came out. Got all the paid dlc not long after in a bundle for less than a tenner.
I got my monies worth out of it, but it is "a bit shit".
