  1. Mortal Kombat 2 (1993)
    Hra, u které jsme jako děti nevěděli, co je motion capture, balance ani hitbox.
    Věděli jsme jen, že Scorpion má "GET OVER HERE!", Sub-Zero umí zmrazit člověka a když se Fatality nepovedla, byl vždycky problém v ovladači,..že jo? 😆

  2. Engadget: ‘Reasonable’ consumers know they don’t own digital downloads, Sony says. “As PlayStation players prepare for an all-digital future after January 2028, Sony is making no apologies to anyone confused about what that means for game ownership (or lack of it). In fact, the company has told a Californian court that no ‘reasonable’ consumer would be silly enough to think that purchasing a […]

  5. Hackaday: How Gold Plastic Syndrome Is Killing Toys And Game Consoles. “In a recent video [Sqwerks] does a deep-dive into the problem of disintegrating plastic enclosures of Nintendo DS consoles.

  6. I'm trying to start a gaming-club (like a book-club but for gaming) with my friends. Many of them are eager to join, kind of surprised! 😃

    Do you have any good tips on how to do these things? Anything we should be mindful of going into it?

    I thought we could gather everyone's favorite (but also a bit obscure?) games in a list, and just choose a random one and get to it. Maybe give them a month or two to play through it and make notes/review it? 🤔

  7. The Virtual Moose: Text Adventures Are Still Doing Alright. “Even though the general narrative online seems to be that text adventures died with Infocom (which I disagree with for many reasons of course), it’s nice to see that there’s two notable Interactive Fiction and Text Adventure events happening at the same time.
