    Wow. Major sticker shock. 14 inch ($20), deep dish ($10), 5 toppings (5x1.7= $8.50). I guess tip and tax could break $50, but a deep dish that big would feed 8 people with some left over. I get a 10 inch deep dish and it's enough for 3 meals!

    Sony will jump in, point to EverQuest, and say they own it. Initially. But all games, indy, AA, or AAA, fade away over time. You aren't going to see many folks playing Orcs Must Die! these days, even if it did make a big splash back in the day.

    Had a fender bender a couple of days ago. My bumper BARELY bent at all - maybe one millimeter on the front-left side. Headlights are still aligned. Still, I sent some photos in for an estimate. They want over $3K and expect repairs to take 25+ hours. I get the feeling that's a "we don't...

    All those new computer glasses displays could lead to a resurrection of 3D-Vision style 3D. Instead of a full headset (and full immersion) you just have two monitors, one for each eye, to give you 3D depth perception. (Or maybe I just really miss my 3D Vision.)

    Arg - double posting but, I was watching this video: View: https://youtu.be/nnN2t6W4BjU?si=5wFXH45R_vrGQB0l I knew about Tomb Raider, but there are a few games on there that are remakes of remakes. The games of 15+ years ago look pretty dated and technology seems to have largely levelled out...

    Let's see, which one was 6... oh yes! Now that I watch the trailer... yeah. Given current events, you gotta play that. Be sure to steal the Statue of Liberty! Lossless seems an odd name to use. You're upscaling, why would you lose anything?

    Terra Invicta fully released today: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1176470/Terra_Invicta/ This is a strategy game created by the folks that gave us the Long War mod to XCOM, which made the game bigger, longer, and considerably more brutal. This game is... ambitious. Instead of playing a...

    Beautiful Game Appreciation

    More Dragon's Dogma 2 I never did go explore what those pillars are up on the mountain to the left! Pawns have a deep-seeded need to give you their verbal resume when you bump into them. I guess this guy is into strength, given the name. Talking to you is... it's like fireworks going off!

    Wait, does that mean not everyone does that?? ;) Now that's getting creepy.

    Planet Crafter is showing some jankiness. I had some duplicate blueprints, which isn't even possible in the early game, that I decoded. Instead of just telling me "you've already got one," the game just makes the duplicate vanish and leaves you wondering. There have been a few geometry holes...

    OK, I'll bow to the peer pressure. Let's see here... about $270 spent last year. I bought Final Fantasy Rebirth plus two big Final Fantasy sound tracks. I got Elden Ring on Jan 1, too, and sales for that aren't common or deep (it costs the same today as it did on Jan 1, 2025). The only games...

    What epic freebies did you try and keep.

    After all those "Epic Exclusives," it's going to take a while before I even accept their free games.
