There really isn’t a “gas station food” in the Northwest aside from the usual fried stuff, but at least around here a lot of gas stations are starting add a taco truck in the parking lot, some of which can be very good.

Just picked up Destiny 2 once it hit Steam. I played the first Destiny a fair bit, but was fairly casual about it (never bothered with any expansions, Crucible or raids.) Don’t think I’ll put too much time into it, but so far it’s worth the cost of admission (or lack thereof.)

I was thinking about this recently when I downloaded Destiny 2 (around 80GB) on Steam. Last year when they gave it away at Blizzcon I tried downloading it on Battle.net but never finished the download because of the size (and the fact that downloads from BNet are generally pretty slow, and the system tends to go into…

I spent a decent amount of time in the first Destiny, so it wasn’t too big a jump to this one. I think the biggest issue I’ve had is that I can’t quite set my key bindings the way I like (in particular, a “double tap to sprint" option like Borderlands 2 has would be nice.) The 75GB download is also a bit of a pain…

Not sure how you’d do it, but it might be fun to take a MkV Golf/Rabbit or Jetta and swap the V10 out of a Gallardo into it. Back in the day when those cars were being built there was an urban legend that the 2.5 liter straight five engine VW was putting into most of their US market cars was basically a Gallardo…

I used to do localization testing in a previous job, and typically we just abbreviated it to “Loc testing”.  

I should really try to finish the Mario Maker 2 troll level I started working on (name: A Good Sound Thwomping) at some point, and also get good enough to actually beat it so it can be uploaded.  Aside from that, probably more Minecraft.

The game not only cheated itself, but itself.

My wife and I went wearing Spaceballs T-shirts.  Not sure I’d want to know what would happen if we went in Starfleet uniforms...

It has ports for controllers on it.  Not sure if you could plug another stick in, but it does look like there will be at least gamepads available.

I’m in the same boat (had a GB but not an SNES) but I think a remake of Link to the Past would be a much harder sell than this one. SNES games (for the most part, not so sure about stuff like Super Mario Kart and Star Fox) hold up a lot better today than Gameboy games do, and the original Link to the Past is now…

It seems like every couple of months you hear about someone embezzling money from their employer to support their F2P game habit.  Just last year someone got busted for embezzling nearly $90,000 on Game of War, but he’s still well behind the one who embezzled $1 million on the same game:

Roll for your insurance bill.

I don’t know how prominent is is with NBA2K, but I do know there are a fair number of people out there whose only game purchase in any given year will be that year’s Madden game.  I suspect those are the ones who will be buying all the extra content and microtransactions.

It seems like there’s always something that’s just all over the place when a new generation appears.  Back when Generation 2 came out it was Swinub, it seemed like there were five of the things on every street corner and they were a pain to catch.  Of course now Mamoswine is one of the strongest raid attackers, but we…

I’d use this as a reminder that Julius Belmont never got the full game he was owed, but I’m not sure I’d want to see what it would look like at this point.

I remember playing on some of those Jedi Knight 2 duel servers.  I remember there was a certain protocol for beginning duels, with the end result being more of a chatroom with lightsaber duels than anything.

Probably more Minecraft, trying to get a construction project off the ground on my brother’s realm.  At some point I’ll pick up Borderlands 3, but find myself a lot more willing to wait on it than I would have originally thought.  

I heard they made a few Seinfeld episodes about that one.

If I’m going to play any long games, chances are they’re going to be mostly on my Switch while I’m commuting. I have a fairly long commute with roughly an hour in each direction on the bus or train every work day That said, even with a Switch there’s some effort to get it set up (need to pull out the headphones and…
