@dedeco-vgmdj.bsky.social once again producing a MASTERFUL mix, this time for one of the greatest soundtracks of all time: Street Fighter 3. @gene.meme @dark1x.bsky.social youtu.be/GPlmDHea-0E?...

Wrapped up #ShinobiArtofVengeance. Once again, incredible work by @lizardcube.bsky.social, game played like a dream and offered a continuous dopamine rush through the end (beating Ruse felt SO satisfying). Awesome OST by Tee Lopez and @yuzokoshiro.bsky.social as well!
Wrapped up the main end credits for #BluePrince - phenomenal puzzle game that really absorbs you into its world. Really enjoyed uncovering new secrets for many additional hours after the credits. Wish I had more time to explore! @blueprincegame.bsky.social
This guy discovered an old video game store in Greece with a treasure trove of PS1 games, especially imported Japanese ones (a ton of rare ones included; those start at about 8 minutes into the video). @dark1x.bsky.social @pc98audi.bsky.social @seanseanson.bsky.social

If I were @bandainamcousa.bsky.social, I would create a new Ridge Racer game that has a Y2K aesthetic (à la Ridge Racer V) and uses Pink Pantheress for the OST. This needs to happen. @dark1x.bsky.social @pc98audi.bsky.social @seanseanson.bsky.social @sharkabytes.bsky.social

As hesitant as I originally was with a remake of MGS3, I have to say that Konami did a really nice job with Δ. The new gameplay style and enemy AI work surprisingly well! Of course, the original game design by Kojima and team is what makes this game a timeless classic. #playstation #metalgearsolid
It would be awesome if a new Rez game was developed by following and expanding upon the Area X formula. #playstation #rezinfinite @enhance-experience.com
I still think about Cyber Shadow, its gameplay and soundtrack worked in perfect harmony and I consider it the best 2D ninja game out there (and getting the Platinum trophy was HARD but super fun!). I still get goosebumps from the 2020 Story trailer. #playstation @yachtclubgames.bsky.social

Time to finally (no pun intended) experience Final Fantasy IV. After researching online all the available versions, I decided to purchase the PSP version and play it on original hardware, my old PSP-1000 back from 2007. #playstation #psp #finalfantasy
Shelf with my tribute to the Final Fantasy series on PlayStation consoles. #finalfantasy #playstation
My favorite VGM-inspired track for the year definitely has to be “Mei Ling”, a fantastic collaboration between @pizzahotline.bsky.social X @shirobon.bsky.social. The conversation between Mei Ling and Snake fully captures that indescribable feeling of reliving memories with retro games.

Metal Gear Solid throughout the years. Still remember waiting in line outside a UNIQLO in Midtown Manhattan in 2012 to have my copy of MGS4 signed by Mr. Kojima and Mr. Shinkawa. @hideokojimaen.bsky.kojimaproductions.jp #playstation #MetalGearSolid
Lovely sprite work from the PS1 game, X2: No Relief. Recently revisited this and definitely think it’s underappreciated, mainly because I think it only saw a European release. Kickass techno OST as well, representative of the mid 90s. #playstation @dark1x.bsky.social @seanseanson.bsky.social
What I absolutely loved about Final Fantasy XIII is how hard the logo hits after you finish the game (not a spoiler without context but the logo is essentially a depiction of the game’s finale!) #finalfantasy #playstation #ps3
Aaaand finally finished FFXIII. Holds up brilliantly even after all these years! Didn’t find the linearity of it as bothersome as people made it to be. Definitely interested in checking out XIII-2 and XIII-3; here’s hoping SE releases remastered versions on PS5 at some point. #finalfantasy #ps3
Finally completed Death Stranding 2 yesterday evening. What a fantastic journey and what an emotional ending to the story. One full of hope for humanity and the importance of persevering against all odds, including those imposed to us by the universe. #deathstranding2 @kojipro2015.bsky.social
Probably the best snow I’ve seen in a game. Small details like the little specks of sunlight reflecting of the snow surface are exactly the kind of details I would expect from a @hideokojimaen.bsky.kojimaproductions.jp game. #deathstranding2 #ps5share
(Part 2 of the MGS 1-3 magazine retrospective) After E3 1998, the hype for MGS1 was unreal. Although many folks remember the MGS2 demo bundled with Z.O.E, there was actually a demo of MGS1 available with ISS PRO ‘98 (at least in Europe) that September. @hideokojimaen.bsky.kojimaproductions.jp
Over the next weeks, I’ll be posting insights into the Metal Gear series from key Official PlayStation Magazine issues (UK). Starting with the August 1998 issue, and its gorgeous front and back covers. @hideokojimaen.bsky.kojimaproductions.jp @polydepression.bsky.social @seanseanson.bsky.social
As far as PS1 JRPGs go, does Grandia stand better the test of time than Chrono Cross? #playstation #grandia #chronocross #retrogaming
Death Stranding 2 is Kojima’s best narrative and game since Metal Gear Solid 3. It’s his cleanest and most exciting story, recapturing the glory of his best work in unbelievable, unpredictable and beautiful ways. www.washingtonpost.com/entertainmen...
Review | ‘Death Stranding 2’ is Hideo Kojima at the peak of his powers
“Death Stranding 2: On the Beach” is Hideo Kojima’s most complete story in years, set across an ambitious, awe-inspiring open world.

Playing around with the Sony Trinitron KV-20FV10 I recently received. This set is in excellent condition (Grandia on PS1 shown in S-video, no RGB on this set unfortunately) but will definitely enjoy this one! @crtpixels.bsky.social @dark1x.bsky.social
A much needed appreciation post for Gitaroo Man - I feel like this game doesn’t get enough credit for its kickass soundtrack. #playstation #psp #gitaroomanlives
Still making my way through FFXIII. Great game overall, but consistent with what I recall reading back in 2009/2010, the experience gets sooo much better in the later chapters! Hope #SquareEnix will eventually remaster the trilogy. #playstation #finalfantasy
Rolled credits on Cocoon. Brilliant puzzle game with one of the most unique concepts I’ve seen in years. Can’t imagine how much time the developers must have spent creating these puzzles. #playstation #cocoon @carlsengames.bsky.social
