Been too long since I’ve played to remember. It certainly looks like something!

I think the last one I played from them was a cooperative effort with Nintendo, the Mario + Rabbids games. I only played the first, but did enjoy it; thought it was a solid tactics game. I wanted to play the latest Prince of Persia, the 2D one, but didn’t get around to it. Heard good things. But, that’s about it for me. I never was a huge fan of their games. They seem to often target mediocrity, with series like Assassin’s Creed and Far Cry having way too many entries, with too few bangers, and bargain prices to quickly follow.

It doesn’t say how old he was, but there was this about him starting in the industry later in life:

…he said he was 35 when he made his first Doom level, calling himself “a late bloomer with games,” while Apogee founder Scott Miller said Gray was “in his 40s” when the studio hired him out of the Doom mod scene to work on Duke Nukem 3D.

I was just looking through some old programs on my computer, and I came across Warp Pipe. I believe it was a third-party app that allowed internet play of Mario Kart: Double Dash. That port on the GameCube could be used to connect two systems locally, and play up to 8 players in a race. I’m not sure what other uses it had. This app somehow allowed it to work online! I only had a brief time with it and don’t remember much other than it might have been a choppy experience, but I did just run across that file and it brought back the memory, along with your post!

Plus, I wish they’d revive Chibi-Robo!!

Reminded me of the Panasonic GameCube (Panasonic Q). Not a separate DVD player, but built-in. Still, interesting ideas and neat designs!

Way to go IOI!

There’s always the main factions’ logos:

Global Defense Initiative

Brotherhood of Nod

The New Tetris (N64). For the 4x4 block making, and the awesome drum & bass soundtrack!

It would be nice if players caught on and ditched every avenue of playing unfinished games. Redemption arcs are pathetic. Again players let these companies off the hook.

It’s literally sloppy shit.

A shame because it was nice when Chinatown Wars came around some years down the road. A nice trip back to 2D, with some modernization.

Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow

Everybody furiously uninstalling EA shit.

Edit: missing letter

Thanks for the rundown!

Samus from Metroid

Now that’s interesting

I’ve never seen Lara sitting for therapy. I, on the other hand, have sat a few times. 👍

Space, the we already did that frontier.
