Y'all wanna play video games tonight

There is no action game optimized to compensate for lag that alternates between 10ms and 100ms every second

RIP me ever playing online multiplayer ever again

@connie I did not agree to these terms

I was curious, so I counted... only about 40% of the video games I like from 1983 to 1994 (157 of 337) are commercially available on modern platforms today, including the 3DS.

I need to do more research into the TMNT ripoffs Konami made arcade games for.

It's weird how it's both true that one person can make a video game and that international megacorps can collaborate in ways to effectively turn huge ultra-games into successful returns on investment.

I don't think about this often but it is wild how much Tencent Games owns. One investment company owns:

* a majority of Riot (League of Legends), Supercell (Clash Royale), Grinding Gear Games (Path of Exile)
* a minority in: ActiBlizzard, Ubisoft, Epic (40%!), Paradox, Frontier Developments (Elite: Dangerous), and a lot of mobile game developers.

The Spyro art director knew what was up.

time traveling brain aliens give you a false memory of seeing the Chris Houlihan room in Link to the Past when you were 8 years old

Picked up SFV AE at Wal-Mart for only slightly more than the underwear I also bought. \o/

Is it possible for me to invite a friend to awoo space?

@Lobst Make sure you have notes for every quest step of Deep Jungle; that's always a drag for me.

(and horror games in general)

Tomb Raider might be the other example, since the restrictions on the ways you can move lead to spatial puzzle solving in the style of older cinematic platformers.

Does not work so well in Tenchu, Croc, various strafe-less FPSes...
