seized from twiter

I just finished Snufkin: Melody of Moominvalley and I love ecoterrorism. Any games like it for me to play next?

edit: thanks for all the suggestions! I'm gonna check some of these out over the week

The GameBoy Handy Boy! And boy is this thing... handy. : retrogaming

I bought one of those on sale years ago. When I got to the car I excitedly opened the box only to discover it was broken. I think the speaker hinges were busted. So I took it back and got a refund. It was probably all for the best. Adult me looking at this agrees it looks unusable.

The Handy Boy (1994) : cassettefuturism

I actually had this as a kid for my Gameboy. It actually wasn't half bad, but it was extremely unwieldly.

One of my friends had this monstrosity. It really didn't improve anything, and made holding the Gameboy super annoying. Forgot if this came with a light, that would have been cool.

I had one that was a light and a magnifier, and i removed the magnifier because it was stupid to have to look at the screen at the correct angle or it would get all blurry, and because my middle-school eyes never thought the screen was too small anyway. The light though, it was a game changer.

Fantasy worlds have clerics with fantastical powers; however, just because these agents of the divine have the power to cure impairments it doesn't mean their gods will let them. Follow me down a rabbit hole where we examine D(d)inability in the "Medieval World," it's role, and how saints such as Cuthbert, struggled with their own disabilities.

Does THIS... mean anything to you?

You just can't. There's too many of them. And they keep making more of them! When will the suffering end?

They should stop making games for at least a year so I can catch up.

So I'm having a trek through the generations third person cover shooters that i remember not liking much and remembered this game. Went in without much expectation and coming off the back of spec ops the line gameplay I was expecting another clunky poorly aged boring unreal engine 3 game but this surprised me.

I barely remember anything about it when it came out it kinda just came and went but I wasn't expecting something this good. Hooked from the first level the gameplay is simple yet feels really satisfying and the characters/narrative really carries the experience. Series X backwards compat version really boosts it as well with sharp visuals and smooth framerate. Didn't realise it came from the Yakuza devs

Big fan of the first game played it many times but the second left little appeal as it was intended for online play and I had no friends or xbox live when it came out. The split screen mode was also practically unplayable as it left two tiny little boxes on the screen making it impossible to see.

Then I got the PC port on steam but its completely unplayable and if your device has too many CPU cores doesn't run at all, crashes when saving every time and generally just shit to run so gave up there.

Found myself with two xbox consoles and played with my brother on system link and its probably one of the most entertaining coop games I've ever played. Its just complete chaos with batshit cinematics all the way through.

Shame it's another lost crapcom franchise relying on xbox backwards compat to be played at all since the pc version is unusable. Weird cos the first game runs and looks great to this day and was fun to play on steam deck
