Glad to hear it! One issue with the noise cancelling ones is that they tend to be heavier, due to the tech in them to cancel the noise...

The only possible answers would be something with a larger cup size (so it goes around your ears, not on them) and lighter, which is a difficult (but possible) combo.

I'd likely need to know more about what specific issues you have with comfort while wearing them, but may well be able to help find ways to solve them; I'm quite knowledgeable about headphones in general, and am rather picky about them myself.

This game looks so chunky in pure pixels like this... and so amazing on a CRT to blend those edges a bit and make that faux-transparency work. Still a great game in any case... I love my Twin Stick controllers I bought for only two games (they work on Dreamcast too, with the right adapter).

It really does; the versions in Rondo of Blood go even harder, though. Seriously, Rondo on PC Engine is peak Castlevania soundtrack.

A great and noble cause, to be sure, but... change.org? Those grifters? Surely you can do better than to enrich that for-profit corporation by giving them more hits.

It's amazing how little I hear about Stand on Zanzibar, a Hugo winner that's truly amazing. I went through a phase of reading most Hugo finalists, going forward from the beginning, and that one just blew me away with how great it was, and I'd never heard of it prior to picking it up in the list.

and if you got REAL lucky, those 6 AAs gave you... 4 hours of battery life. If you were lucky. The rechargeable battery packs worked pretty well, though.

You mean "Bare Knuckle 3". Bare Knuckle 3 is a great game. Streets of Rage 3 is an abomination and one of the best examples of ruining a game via localization that exists.
