Final Fantasy XVI is really good, actually.

Trying to drastically cut back on my meat consumption in an effort to improve my health and grocery bills. Not full veggie, but eating more fish and grains and stuff.

Few days into it and so far, so good. Canned salmon and tuna helps a lot. Greek yogurt, protein bars and shakes, etc.

Ex-Call Of Duty Boss "Immensely" Worried About The Series Under Microsoft's Ownership

Glen Schofield, a former Call of Duty boss at Sledgehammer Games, has said he is "immensely" worried about the future of the series under Microsoft. He also stated that the quality of most Call of Duty releases since he left has fallen. Speaking to VGC, Schofield said of Microsoft's ownership of Call of Duty, "I worry about it immensely, I really do. Because what's happening here is a war."

Legendary Dead Or Alive And Ninja Gaiden Creator Tomonobu Itagaki Has Died

Veteran video game developer Tomonobu Itagaki has passed away at the age of 58. Famous for his work on the Dead or Alive fighting game franchise and the revival of Ninja Gaiden in the 2000s, Itagaki's death was confirmed on his Facebook profile where he left a final message. "Final Words, the flame of my life is about to go out. The fact that this message has been posted means that my time has finally come. I am no longer in this world--I have entrusted someone important to me with this final message," Itagaki's post read (via Facebook translation). "My life was a continuous battle which I kept winning. I caused a lot of trouble for others too. I take pride in having fought to the end, and having followed my convictions. I have no regrets, but I am deeply sorry that I could not deliver new works to my fans. I'm sorry. So it goes."Continue Reading at GameSpot

Very sad to hear about the news of Tomonobu Itagaki's passing.

He played a part in my first-ever E3 in 2010, as we ended up at the same rooftop THQ party. Greeted me, a 23-year-old newbie, as if we'd known each other forever.

Rest in peace, Itagaki-san. Thanks for the thumbs up.

HAPPY NEW POKEMON DAY

Noah @nojath.bsky.social · 1d

I mean... it's Microsoft. Did we expect anything else?

Noah @nojath.bsky.social · 2d

All in all I purchased:

the re-shelled SNES
Super Mario World
& Chrono Trigger with the repro box.

I also have ALTTP and Super Metroid from previous purchases!

Noah @nojath.bsky.social · 2d

Interplay released Fallout 2 in 1998 and still couldn't get it done!

If I say the phrase:

“Song from a video game”

Then immediately follow with:

“Killer bass line”

What’s the first song that comes to mind?

I'm regularly having to open and close so many apps just to get them to function correctly. Driving me insane.

I LIKE IT

Feature-wise, anyway. I like the new aesthetic.

Too bad it's buggy as shit.
