With Tekken World Tour coming up this weekend (and it's the last one for Tekken 7), I have a blog that is ready to go tomorrow. I had to insert one more game since it was announced out of nowhere.

 
 
 

I decided to finally give Earthbound a try. Screw these dudes I'm stuffed up enough!


 
 
 
 

Looks like we're in a brand new era for SEGA and I'm here for it.

 
 
 
 

I have a blog set and ready to go this Friday. And yes, it's the yearly Fighting Games & DLC blog.

 
 
 

Started gaming on PC & discovered that quite a few games can actually run pretty well on a potato (integrated graphics) on low-medium settings. Console is absolutely in no danger of being abandoned because ✨carpal tunnel syndrome✨(lol).

 
 
 

Tonight on the first Fortune Roulette of 2024: We're opening up with one of the games I got for Christmas that has the makings of an hidden gem, Bot Vice! https://twitch.tv/virtuakazama


 
 
 

Haven't been around lately mostly because December was packed lol. I did get around to the first mini of the year though... Magni the Melancholy. This lads from 1983 and is absolutely precious!


 
 
 

Sending love y’all, hope you had a good holiday and that this is a great year for you. Love thee x


 
 
 

Last year I couldn't write nor post my annual games awards, same with movies & TV shows, so I'll share the messages of the best I played and saw in 2023. Journey: simplicity is always better. The Flash: do not live in the past. Beef: control your anger.


 
 
 

First VF5US session of 2024 and also the first session with the brand new stick that I got for Christmas! It's time for the latest session of Virtua Fighter Takeover! https://twitch.tv/virtuakazama


 
 
 

Hey everyone! I’ve got a new retro gaming book for PlayStation fans. Check it out here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/darrenhupke/32-bit-library-volume-3-konamis-playstation-rework

 
 
 
 

Yep, I could not get Sonic 1 working on Crowd Control. At least I have a backup plan for tonight's stream.

 
 
 

The time has come. It was a tough year for most of us and yet here we are, trying to do our best no matter what. Thanks for all the posts, time to read & comment on what I had to say, and for still being a safe place online to this day. Happy New Year.


 
 
 

To all those who are still here: Wishing you all the very best for 2024, Dtoid. May each of us find whatever it is we're looking for in the new year.

 
 
 

Is this (still? now?) working? Happy New Year!

 
 
 
 

Weekly Update, here are the games I am currently playing. I am going to review those within brackets once completed: -[Wild Arms 2 (PS1)] -Dragon Quest XI (Switch) -CrossCode (Switch) -Ghost of Tsushima (PS4/5)

 
 
 
 

Been trying to write a follow-up blog to my backport blog from Feb 2022, but with less stringent requirements for inclusion. Have a SNK vs Capcom longplay on C64 (2022).



 
 
 

All I got for Christmas was bedridden with a sinus infection. I also played a little Cyberpunk and Robocop Rogue City and watched the related movies. Mostly just slept otherwise :/

So I just played Superliminal


Superliminal was a game that I had seen bits and pieces of but had never tried, even though it looked really REALLY cool. Last week, my buddy recommended that I play it, and it's on Game Pass so I didn't really have an excuse. The game...
