Breaking Bad started out about that. Was the whole reason he broke bad in the first place!

I miss my Nexus 5X. Probably still be using it if it hadn’t gradually destroyed itself.

Raisins are not fine

The generative summaries have the potential to take clicks / visitors away from the sites they’re from. I’ve seen reports of smaller sites being at risk of closing down as a result, and if there are no sites to summarise…

I know it barely scratches the surface, but the Accessibility settings menu has an option to disable animations. Failing that, there are settings within Developer Options (yes, I know) to speed up or disable most animations.

I would go with an OSSC or a RetroTink

• PlayStation / PC Engine - Mednafen
• NES - Mesen
• SNES - Higan / bsnes / Ares (whatever it’s called)
• GB(C|A)? - mGBA
• Mega Drive - BizHawk
• GameCube / Wii - Dolphin
• Amiga - FS-UAE
• DOS - DOSBOX Staging

Those are the main ones, but by and large I either use original hardware or the MiSTer.

Looks like I should be making a cuppa with it

Watership Down

Even just the word “workflow” in this context feels wrong

Mekanism, an extensive tech mod for Minecraft that could quite happily be its own game.

Or even worse, they move slightly slower than your run speed but slightly faster than your walk speed

Remember that brief period where games would have items specifically designed to be vendor trash?

Ooh, banana!

The Sims 2’s menu theme whisks me right back to 2005

Okay, my actual thoughts are thus: The original game looked bad. I don’t think there’s any denying that. But: at least it was consistent, and it had a style to it that it kept hold of throughout. There was a real opportunity to properly overhaul Deus Ex with the remaster, but they’ve instead settled for Xbox 360-era models, while keeping the stiff animations from the original, and throwing ridiculous amounts of harsh lighting and bloom around. It doesn’t look like Deus Ex any more. What they should’ve done is taken some cues from Human Revolution and used that to inform the design. (Hot take maybe)

Halo 2 Anniversary, though…!
