A sports nut who podcasts about video games. Also fond of cats.
@chrishuelsbeck.bsky.social Casually looking at the credits for R-Type Delta: HD Boosted. Practically fell out of my chair when I saw "MUSIC ARRANGEMENT: Chris Hülsbeck". I don't see you in the credits of the original, is this all new work for this game (and how much was you)?
Someone should write a story about a curséd device, lusted after as a transformative source of power, that renders its users unnaturally youthful long beyond their time
IGN@ign.com · 3w agoElijah Wood and Ian McKellen will return as Frodo and Gandalf in The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum — more than 25 years on from when Fellowship of the Ring released, and now director Andy Serkis has said some level of digital de-aging will be used. https://bit.ly/4fxOKI3
@matpiscatella.bsky.social Do you think we've hit the ceiling on a global gaming audience? Microsoft was basically giving games away with GamePass and that really didn't make the pie bigger, from what I can tell. Any "Addressable audience" numbers are dubious nowadays.
Microsoft is just throwing all cargo off the ship at this point. They don't care about anything but stopping the bleeding, so any noble thoughts about "saving a great studio" are irrelevant. That's somebody else's problem, not theirs.
@guillaumenwr.bsky.social Based on you saying, "If this was one of the movies, it'd be 2nd or 3rd best in the series", I'm going to finally make a run at Great Circle.
Surprising nobody, but I'm hyped for the Ocarina of Time remake. I love the original game, but its visuals make it a hard playrhrough for me these days. I can't wait to see it reimagined. Also, inject that Pokopia DLC into my veins.
XBOX Showcase: Hyped for Bad Magpie, Decay 3, Castlevania. Gears is Gears, but looks good. Halo is a no-brainer, but $69.99? Yeesh. Keeping an eye on Clockwork, Vivarium, Resonance, Metro, Magicians, Valor Mortis. Few must-buys but many "cool, but let's see the review scores". Curious about CoD: MW4

It's so novel seeing Bayern play a team that they aren't outspending 10:1.

Might actually go FireRed because there is no way in hell I'm asking another human being to trade me a Wooper.
it's not the issue of this story, but it is a transparent example of how the "cars are freedom" narrative is a complete farce. when the state controls your movement and can immobilize you on a whim, you are not free. car dependency is an arm of fascism for the car *IS* fascism and must be abolished.
Alejandra Caraballo@esqueer.net · 5mo agoKansas is sending letters to trans people telling them that their licenses will be revoked as of tomorrow and that they risk arrest for driving on a suspended license. This is pure cruelty. www.erininthemorning.com/p/kansas-sen...
Microsoft, do us all a favor and exit the gaming business. Stop pretending like you give a shit. You never really did, and never really will. It's not in your DNA. Never was.
USA hockey gold to me means that they are very even with Canada now, with a goaltending edge for USA at the moment. It took the USA 45 years to get here, but fair play to them.
I look forward to a bunch more 7.5/10 games in Xbox's future. I also look forward to the best of them being on PlayStation, and never touching Xbox consoles again.
So the new head of Xbox gaming seems to know nothing about the sector, but will rely on those that do to make Xbox great, or something. Inspiring news for the brand.
Minnesota Vikings must be feeling REALLY dumb right now.
You telling me that Xabi Alnoso couldn't have got those same results the last two games? Come on. Politics, man.
"Kyle Tucker, who turns 29 on Saturday, was the top free agent bat on the market" Dodgers get the best free agent out there for what, the 6th season running? Baseball is awesome.
Take-Two stock is down 4.26% this afternoon because of rumors that GTA6 will be delayed based on a podcast in which I did not say that GTA6 would be delayed
