I thought it was time to make a Twitch trailer, a selection of the kind of crap that I take on stream, random singing / laughter / bad jokes / banging the keyboard / dying inside.
Plus the song everyone loves.
All this and very much less on www.twitch.tv/thegenesiste...

This is me following up on a years old pitch on one of my favorites Sega Technical Institute games. Finally, The Ooze.
The Ooze, an eccentric late era Genesis title from Sega Technical Institute where you control a large pile of goop. (by @damiano.bsky.social) www.hardcoregaming101.net/ooze-the/

Yesterday I was playing this nice 2002 AGI adventure game for children until it turned... very weird. Using scissors on people started making our main character, an 8-year-old girl, reflect on how to kill her friends and get away with it.
You know... as girls at that age do.

Liking this Italian Microsoft 1995 anti-piracy ad, which basically threatens all kinds of evil and illness if you are using a pirated version of Windows: viruses, "nuclear contamination", data loss, prison, nervous breakdown, etc

To "celebrate" 20 years of Like a Dragon, SEGA is... making a whole mess.
So:
-Yakuza 0 DC (new co-op/cutscenes) is 15$ if you own it.
-Yakuza Kiwami is 2$. (new languages and 1 new song).
-Yakuza Kiwami 2 (same as above) is free if you own it already.
Save progress doesn't transfer.

Biorobot's Base is a sort of Russian DOS clone of Another World.
Is it good? No. But for 1995, having been made by one person, it is not *that* bad. I liked the first few levels, but then the game devolves into "try to shoot first or die", which never really becomes fun or interesting.

Dynamic Soccer was a 1970 tabletop game released by Nintendo, which used an air pump and an intricate set of plastic tubes to propel the ball from one player to the next. Basically, a more technologically advanced version of Subbuteo.

There's this thing on Letterboxd of actors or directors reviewing the movie they shot/were in, becoming the most popular reviews that is really irritating.
Especially since they're never reviews but just HEY I'M IN THIS THING.
