because i mean if you asked me what the best 3DO games are, i'd probably tell you Star Control 2 and Wolfenstein 3D. Not the best look for a console's best games to be ports of couple-year-old PC games, right?

anyway Zhadnost is a crazy FMV powered party game show full of dancing and surf rock (and, *cough* not great stereotypes) and it's probably the single strongest example of what the 3DO could do really well (that isn't an enhanced port of a PC game)

Show thread

Possibly the only 3DO game that is SO compulsorily multiplayer that it includes a free (awful) controller. Also, one of the biggest boxes I've got, excepting some of the PC stuff. Look how it's dwarfing the Solitaires Journey next to it.

What is best in life?
When the cat settles comfortably into the exact spot that you had prepared for the cat to sit. And then falls asleep.
That is best in life.

webgbcam 3.5 released now using localstorage to maintain last used camera settings each time you restart the app maple.pet/webgbcam/

I will never not have to remind myself that "ASSY" is shorthand for Assembly.

This box of oyster crackers warns me that the crackers may be smaller than pictured, but has nothing to say about the tiny people boating and sunbathing in the tomato soup except to imply that they are a β€œserving suggestion.”

I work an at-home phone job, and having music in one ear helps the day pass. So I’ve got a good reason to have lots of instrumental music available, and this is one of my favorites!

It's just like invisionfree. Or proboards. Or an IRC network. 2004 all over again.

I wonder how long it'll be before I start having to have 6 different chat services installed again, too. It's been more than a decade since I've had Pidgin installed...

It's just like buying shoes or headphones. Past a certain point, you just get so sick of them breaking all the time that you buck out for the best quality, most expensive one you can realistically pay for, in the interests of never having to do that again.

I've probably bought $1600 worth of office chairs in the last decade or so, and they've all failed for whatever reason. Bad or leaky gas cylinders, broken screws, wobbly bases, bent parts, broken casters. It's about time I bought chairs that friggin work.

So I bought chairs identical to the ones I use at work. One for me, one for Mom. Merry Christmasbirthday, Mom.
