Finished the Quake 2 N64 campaign. Still a solid shooter. Ammo balance is a bit off but beside that, fun campaign.

Imagine playing a game in 2026 where you can actually die. In the 40 hours I spent playing FF16 I didn't die once. Must've died at least 15 times in Quake 2 N64 and the campaign is like 3 hours at most.

"Play indie games" and when you do a lot of the time they're shittier versions of yesteryears AAA titles. I'll just hook up the old machines and play those classics instead.

Oh well, time to wait and see how they fuck up that God of War trilogy remake.

I’m considering the new Steam controller even though I don’t need it and have the old one and never really used it.

Me too. Though there are other controllers i'd also like to buy, and if I'm not careful I'll spend a lot of money to play about 5 hours a month with a controller total

I'm gonna get the new Steam controller.  But I also expect to be waiting- it'll probably sell out in like 30 seconds.

It's suddenly hitting me that nobody talks about the post Bungie Halo games. It's a complete empty void of gamer discourse ™

Nobody knows or cares that Halo 4 is in the MCC (I forgot)

Nobody knows there is a videogame called Halo 5. An actual game called Halo 5.

Halo Infinite was fun for 2 weeks and then disappeared from the collective gamer memory, mine included Does anyone still play it? Who knows 

They just don't trigger any kind of memory or emotion at all.

And now they are redoing Halo CE for the third time

There's a Halo 5?

Halo Infinite felt like they finally figured out what they wanted it to be in the last eight months and cobbled something together. It was alright but hollow with all the recycled content. If they didn’t scrap the sequel, it could’ve been good if they built off it. Better direction than 4 and 5. Actually, I don’t know if it was cancelled. I’m assuming.

I actually liked halo 4. I finished 5 and infinite, both total dogshit, sad to see tbh. Halo is over.
