I still think about the way that those stiff, dead eyed scientists would unblinkingly pull a hand grenade the size of a cantaloupe out of their lab coats and hurl it at you. Disturbing.

“Time to leave, Dr. Doak”

No no, trust me, you DO want to play it. Find the version of Project 64 with mouse and keyboard support and high-resolution graphics.

it’s difficult but not impossible, the hardest hurdle is just letting the game aim for you rather than actively trying to aim up or down. it’s aged way better than Jet Force Gemini did.

I realize that when in an article that is effectively pitching the idea of pubstomps as self care I shouldn’t have expected much, but hey maybe think for a second about how much it sucks for the rest of the people in the game when someone is pubstomping. I realize that when the exalted mind of [checks notes]…

This article made me sadstalgic.  But I love it
