New on the Secret Area: I catch up on Some Stuff I Bought for the rest of 2025.
Warning: Lots of talk about local Oregon stuff and Tom Wilson (Biff Tannen from Back to the Future) within.
Shares and comments appreciated, as always.

In Australia, SEGA is pronounced SEE-GAH but in some other countries I'm led to believe it's pronounced SAY-GAR.
After intensive research I have found that SEGA is a shortened version of "SErvice GAmes of Japan", which sold slot machines to US military bases after WW2.
So SEGA is most fairly pronounced SER-GAY.
There you go, now nobody is happy
now that I've had some coffe, I'm gonna catch up on some AGDQ runs and maybe do a bit of writing for a blog post I probably should've done a few weeks earlier, but eh
motivation is in flux these days
honestly half-tempted to get back on the stream train
I know it's been years since I last streamed, but I got an HDMI capture device for Christmas and just wanna play a bunch of dumb 360/PS3/Wii stuff
even if it's just to an audience of 3

due to some order mishap, we got a box of small bags of skinny pop popcorn instead of the potato chips we ordered

you know, from playing early on I was worried that Rise of the Tomb Raider was abandoning the Metroidvania-esque roots of Tomb Raider 2013, but it's kept that in spades.
There's just something I like about that backtracking to past areas with things you did not have previously have...

New Secret Area post: it's Santa Rockstar HD.
Christmas meets Guitar Hero? Sounds like the perfect stocking stuffer! A shame it's a lump of coal instead.
