    Honestly, 2TB should be plenty. I keep my screenshots and videos on my old spinning HDD, but my games only take up one terabyte, and that also includes the save files and Windows. Style A on a hard surface, style B on soft. (Style B would look way better as a pillowcase than A, A would look...

    Beautiful Game Appreciation

    More FF7 Rebirth The game suddenly went full Broadway when entering the Gold Saucer! Finding Junon Hojo, that beachwear is atrocious! Being an evil scientist is NO excuse! Now go into that changing booth and put on a thong. Tifa discovers that she has... hands! (I'm using the Universal...

    Hmmm, is your old laptop filing a harassment lawsuit against you, by chance?

    https://www.pcgamer.com/gaming-industry/game-informer-is-back-from-the-dead-the-whole-team-has-returned/ Back from the dead! Can Antic be far behind? Well, yeah, it can be. Maybe GameTrailers? Nah, Geoff just shows a jillion of them in one night for his game awards instead.

    The only thing I get anxious about when flying is whether I'll get a window seat so I can paste my face to it for half the flight. (Oooo! Rainbow effect around the plane's shadow!)

    Tropico 6 seemed a good bit harder to me than 3, 4, or 5. It's been a while now, though, so I can't remember if I was playing on harder difficulty or if I wasn't understanding something basic about the game. Speaking of remembering... F.E.A.R.? I remember liking it. I've got an screenshot...

    Atari Basic is too far back - can we try something with Turtle Graphics?

    I guess they gave you something temporary you could use today, then? Oh no! Are you going to have to wear SHOES for eight hours straight!?

    Elon!? Oh no, I'll need to show him a few thousand lines of code! I haven't printed code out in decades. I sure hope this IDE can display line numbers....

    Silly Version Make a game based off of Zelazny's Amber series. That is a multi-verse style series of books where the primary characters can move from one universe to another simply by walking or any other form of movement. They do this by concentrating on some part of the landscape and...

    Because paid reviewers only review at game release. (Well, mostly only. PC Gamer does have a section revisiting games. I don't think they get counted as official reviews, though.) On the other hand, by putting the emphasis on what the game is like at release, the system encourages game...

    My Distant Worlds 2 run is going well. I finally ran into another empire and used the editor to take a quick peek at how everyone in the game was doing. I've got a few more planets than all of them - so (maybe) winning, but not by very much. There's a base controlled by some rogue pirate over...
