but I have always said, I got into the 3DO's library not because the games are good/great/the best - I got into it because the library is _batshit insane_ and made by all kinds of multimedia startups that otherwise would never have made games to begin with.
it is quite possibly the weirdest and most diverse software library of any console platform (except maybe the CD-i) with everything from Soviet Bloc game shows to first-person pinball, and I love the hell out of it.
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)
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 https://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 “serving 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...

Oh my.
@Mediaite conservative writer Isaac Schorr misread the Twitter account @joinmastodon as "John Mastodon," and said that the open source social media software was named after this imaginary person. https://www.mediaite.com/opinion/hypocrisy-and-fear-all-the-way-down-at-twitter/

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.
