From what I gather having not played but having seen her gameplay, Super Creek isn't motherly. It's a façade. She's so fundamentally terrified of the idea of not pleasing 100% people 100% of the time she goo goo babies them as a coping mechanism

Anyway, in conclusion Samus should goo goo baby me al
samus apparently

whipped up a treadplate floor for the quake 1 techbase replacement texture project i'm chipping away at on the side, needs a bit more polish still but managed to get it pretty nice ingame. reads way better than the original IMO

Found a very simple yet quaint mod for oblivion that adds plaques to every statue in game with lore of what the statue is... you know like actual memorials do in real life.

Statues of Cyrodiil for Oblivion Classic
What this mod dose is just adds plaques with historical background of the Cyrodiil Statues in game.

"why is Fred Durst there?"
Uh, because he was the Dreamcast mascot!? 🙄
Looney Tunes: Space Race released 25 years ago (11/28/00)

This is a surprisingly solid Children's Kart-Racing Game, featuring Chuck Jones' roster of timeless violent asshole animals, lovingly rendered in a lush, vibrant Cel-Shaded art-direction, that makes it feel like a cartoon come to life!

OH! that's why the levels were like that!
LucasArts had so many internal tools, but to make levels their FPS games "Dark Forces" and "Outlaws" they just used the good old AutoCAD. Here are shots of "Outlaws" maps being worked on in AutoCAD R13 for Windows:

Several people are saying stuff about Doom 2016 this weekend under the guise of "dated" that I have been saying since I played it so I'm just shouting "VALIDATED!" at the nearest person.

Hey it's me, Fujiko Mine from the hit manga and anime "Lupin III". I'm going to teach you how to use Microsoft Word! Let's start with typing numbers. Can you enter your credit card number for me? Go on, give it a try! Great! Now let's try your social security number!
Probably the weirdest piece of lost media I know about. There exists a guide to using word processors by the creator of lupin the third that I have never seen mentioned anywhere. I bet it uses green screen & has super low budget animation on top of how to videos or something. Shame we can't see it.

Here's a deep-dive video and comparison between DVDs and Divx discs

You may know DivX as a codec, but did you know that it was also once a competing format to DVD in the late 90s?

DivX movie discs had DRM that required a fee of $4.49 to unlock by phone and modem for 48 hours. Then they'd go unwatchable until you paid $3.25 for another 48 hours.

'Elf Bowling 1&2' released for GBA / DS on this day in 2005.

Slapdash conversions of a pair of shareware classics from '99 / '00. Completely lacking in whatever charm the originals had, and egregious in its attempt to profit off of freely available games.

'Ikki' released for Famicom on this day in 1985.

Classically recognized as the first game to be called a "kusogē." This bad reputation though is perhaps a tad bit overblown, as the game is a relatively fine arcade conversion for the time (save for a truly awful camera).
