New on the Secret Area: "Halo with chips" has been found.

A dumb back of the box quote from Maxim magazine promoting a poker video game had become a small meme. I wanted to find out where it came from.

Likes, shares and comments are really appreciated. asecretarea.com/2025/02/21/hal

fursona reveal!! 

Hey, remember when I was talking about wanting a cat fursona?

Well, thanks to a picrew, and a friend who was willing to help, it's now a reality.

Say hi to Tonya! She's soft, cuddly, and friendly!

Something I've learned to do more this year is not hyperfocus on elections in cities and states I do not live in nor have any stake in.

It's just less stress-inducing to focus on your local politicians than get into shouting matches over what schmuck is gonna run New York City

Especially for me, who would rather bitch about whatever dumb thing Keith Wilson is doing instead

man they should bring Blockbusters (the game show) back

kind of a bummer that quiz game shows don't really take off here in the States, unless you're Jeopardy, or a show imported from the UK like Millionaire or Weakest Link

As much as I love games with flash and style like Pyramid or Price is Right, there's a charm in playing along with a simple quizzer

I've been feeling that for the past few months.

My top bucket list pipe dream was to one day lead an all-female Devo cover band called "We Are Not Men"

RIP Ozzy.

Around 2021 they re-released No More Tears for its 30th anniversary, and made a version of Hellraiser from that album that features Lemmy from Motorhead (using the vocals from the Motorhead version) that's pretty damn good

New Secret Area post: It's The Last of Us.

A late PS3-era critical darling that spawned a popular prestige TV show. Too bad the game itself sucks.

Also I talk a bit about whether Roger Ebert was right about games not being art, using this as an example.

Shares and comments appreciated, as always.
