Bill Oreilly report on super mario bros in 1988.

Contains mullets, Nintendo headquarters, and Howard Phillips sporting a pre-Conan coif

Also there was this one hill where, if you hit it at the right angle, you jumped directly up into the air at a 90 degree angle. Why was that so hilarious? Oh right, DRUGS.

If the hats should pile up to the top of the play field, you're out! But don't panic! As you stack hats, you'll get help from your Russian friends; Alexey and Vladimir. You can use them to move stacks and discard unwanted hats, or save them for cash bonuses in avoided overtime.

Maybe if your Russian friends were the chix from tATu it would've gone over better?

sounds like a fun premise for a game, would play!

yeah that's a pretty impressive premise, good work

Yeah, that sounds great! Reminds me of something from the book "Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow."

She’s just begun reading that after several friends recommended it! Thanks all.

That’s great, mattt! Congrats to her!

thats very cool

Let us know when the Kickstarter goes live.

One of my favorite encounters with a Japanese developer was when I was doing bugtesting and submitted an issue about how pressing the AltGr key could trigger a crash. 12 hours later I got the message "Japanese keyboards don't have AltGr." and they marked the issue as solved.

Apparently this game was developed in a year by 20 people, and it shows:

Lotta debate over whether the implosion of that game constitutes a scam or just extreme incompetence. Probably the former.

Can't wait to get home and digest the info on this. Can't really look into anything whilst at work, is this the game that was supposed to be released last year but was delayed because they said they were moving to the newer Unreal engine? Or was that something else?

The bushy stuff hanging off the model in that clip is apparently its facial hair, by the way.

I've never seen that before, surprised it hasn't been memed to death like Leeroy Jenkins.

not sure how to do image sharing but will try it

(game in question is the Japanese famicom version of "8 Eye's")

say what???

i don't speak japanese, but from what i gather from random stranger's video, it turns out the japanese version of "8 Eye's" doesn't just differ from the US version by having a blatantly ungrammatical title. the japanese version is set in the waning days of the ottoman empire, in which you have to stop an evil armenian, a satanist bandit who's also the daughter of the devil. she's stolen some armenian artifacts from the british museum (yeah) in order to resurrect satan. you play a british secret agent, julian james bond, who has to save the turks, and the rare british treasures, by stopping the evil armenians.

so yeah that's not necessarily great.

i love that retro games have entered the cd era.

I think Dunkey has been on a winning streak lately, but I am a sucker for him playing any game that lets him throw objects and bonk NPCs. Like his review of Hitman or Far Cry 5 or the new Indiana Jones game (which I actually did see somewhere described as the best slapstick game since Hitman):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZxxpnK0LqU

I am a simple man, but I almost did a spit take every time he bonked someone on the head.

There's also this:

Everyone who complained about that should have their hard drive confiscated for investigation

Not quite sure what thread to talk about this in, but Polygon is functionally dead now - sold off to a company trading in such high quality sites as ScreenRant, 99% of the staff has been let go.

It was easy to make fun of some parts of the site - it certainly didn't push the envelope in game reviews, and was often insanely generous to everything geek culture, but it did employ a lot of cool people and was I think tyhe only mainstream website to give consistent coverage to DTV and world action cinema stuff, got into Gundam and the High&Low series through them.

Their video content was always excellent, often very insightful (all their stuff on urbanism in games), often funny, often posted by me to various threads here.

This one is a little lol, mostly sad, but fitting to say goodbye:

Yep it was the gaming news site I went to daily, they were definitely cringe-inducing at times but still loved them despite their flaws. Not sure who I’ll replace them with, RPS is good but not particularly news focussed. Might just need to hold my nose and go back to Eurogamer.

I used to read Polygon a lot - I’ll not read it now. I’ve been a subscriber to Aftermath for a while, but while I support what they’re doing, there’s definitely a lack of reviews and it’s mostly coverage of the games industry/ecosystem than specific reviews or guides or those things you generally expect from a gaming site. I’m hoping it’ll get there eventually.

https://www.videogameschronicle.com/ is good

"Of some fashion" doing some heavy lifting in the thread title, but I saw this trailer the other day, and if you told me it was based on a video games I would have believed you:

Some fantasy author guy brought up Fatman from MGS2 as an example of how awful Hideo Kojima's writing is, and he's getting dragged to such a degree that "Orc City" was actually a top ten trending topic for a while there.

I always liked Fatman as a character and a boss, so this has been fun; I don't necessarily like this social media pile-on thing but... oh who cares the guy's an obvious douchebag.

https://www.nytimes.com/2025/07/17/business/china-video-games-women.html

“Some male gamers have turned against Revenge on Gold Diggers. After its developer, Qianfang Studio, publicly thanked female players for their support, some men posted screenshots canceling their purchases in protest. The game’s director later issued an apology for hurting players’ feelings. Qianfang Studio did not respond to a request for comment.

The government’s responses to the game have been more ambivalent. Shortly after the game’s release, the studio changed its Chinese title to Emotional Anti-Fraud Simulator. The English-language title remained, and the move was widely believed to be an effort to deflect criticism and appease the government.”
