No modern artists can match the vibe Nujabes, Tsutchie of Shakkazombie, fat jon and Force Of Nature captured for this series. It is not just Nujabes, we include them ALL.
They were all working on utterly unique personal sounds for years, and they got the world stage with SC.
You can't repeat it.
Al final será ir haciendome al juego y sus mecancias, que esto me pilla de nuevas y no es tan orientado al combate como el 4 original
Jugando al RE 2 Remake y la verdad que no sé si lo estoy jugando bien porque estoy cagado el 90 por cierto del tiempo y no sé si estoy gestionando la munición como me gustaría. Y eso que disparo poco.
Ultima: Runes of Virtue II (1993, Game Boy)
El ataque de Estados Unidos e Israel a Irán, y la rápida expansión del conflicto por toda la región (con el riesgo de que adquiera una escala global), vuelve a ponernos frente al espejo de los combustibles fósiles.
Lo analizamos:
De momento solo lo vemos en polaco, pero si es cierto suponemos que en breves saltará la liebre a la prensa internacional.

A broken, blue heart
With a broken Blue Bomber heart, I am no longer the voice of Mega Man.
I was asked to return for Mega Man: Dual Override, but only on the condition I work without the protections of a union contract.
Have never seen anything this good or this easy. It’s such a simple contract and they’ve been amazing to work with.
Every time it comes up I just gotta remind people that it's extremely expensive to license filming in Shibuya, which the team making this game couldn't afford, so they filmed this game by stealing shots and running from the cops.

Shinji Mikami (Resident Evil, The Evil Within) is building a “high-end”, "AAA original IP" for consoles and PC at his new studio Unbound Games

The team is currently around 50 developers with plans to grow to over 150
Saw on the train today, Fukushima prefecture is doing a tourism campaign in partnership with Square-Enix, promoting Final Fantasy-like landscapes & touristic spots.
Cute stuff, I only found the 1st one in good quality.
Not just that. Some of the Gulf states have said they don't want to let the US use their country for operations in this war. Israel's critical infrastructure is taking a beating after their defenses were worn down.
It's been a disaster for Trump & Netanyahu, with gas prices simply the cherry on top

Lo típico que te vas a NYC a cargo del erario y te reúnes con el alcalde de... Sevilla. Y luego, a ver flamenco. Agenda apretada para dar visibilidad a Madrid allí.
Pero quizá no recuerdes algo más interesante de su paso por Miami (de donde vino, parece, algo retocada):
100%'d The Magic Circle. It's half an immersive sim where you assign verbs to different minions to explore and solve problems, and half a fourth wall-breaking fever dream where the developers invite you on a sweat and tears behind-the-scenes tour.
Boss Mary transformation from the OG Silent Hill 2. I manually created each frame with keyframe animation to build this effect back then.

Individually, a person who plays fighting games may have a bunch of different complicated nuanced motivations and emotions that are served by different parts of the fighting game experience — not limited to the game itself on their console, but the broader journey of mastery and connectivity. The high-minded ideal FGC stuff I mentioned above is real and does exist! It just doesn’t exist enough to sell the millions of copies that go into funding the next Street Fighter or Tekken. At scale, building and selling games as a service looks a lot more like making a theme park or a casino, where you have customers entering at a given point, you give them choices on what kind of experience they can have in your game, and you give them clear signs and paths to choose from in order to make it easy for them. In the above section, we established that people play video games because they want to feel something specific. It’s a brief moment of agency in a day where you were otherwise probably at the mercy of some stupid bullshit at your job, or at school, or in your family, or on the bus, or whatever. We spend most of our day pushing the boulder up, and the brief moment of rest we get is choosing the video game we play in between eating dinner and going to sleep, where we get to act like the person we imagine ourselves to be as the boulder rolls back down the hill.

Pero si la trama de pegarse con los especuladores siempre es bien.
Aunque como minijuego prefiero el del cabaclub porque me gusta el rollo de gestión ligera que tiene, más que darse vueltas y generar el "rédito pasivo" con Kiryu

when it works it works
After playing the likes of Dread Delusion and Tainted Grail, I'm kinda stuck on the idea of there being a spectrum of design language, with King's Field at one extreme and Morrowind on the other.
I think the core of it is Level Design, and whether dungeons are designed as A Level or Just A Place.
