More photos
Some more snaps to round out the longest month in the history of the planet, draw a line under it, and do something better from now on.
Gadgets
I've wanted to build a computer inside a Pelican case for a while now, and it's getting closer.
Taking the moral high ground and salting the low ground
I know you should try to be the bigger person when someone does something to annoy you, but it always ends up making me feel like a chump.
Cult of the Lamb
I slept on this for so long. No real reason. Had it in my Steam library for a while but just didn't start it. Played a few minutes and nothing clicked.
Handheld Gaming
Gaming is probably my oldest hobby. My dad bought a MegaDrive when I was very young - I can't have been more than 6 or 7. Gaming has been with me since that.
Mario Kart 8 Wave 4 Tracks
I haven't played Mario Kart for ages. Pretty much since I got the Steam Deck, I think.
Gran Turismo 7
The best parts of this game are the photo mode and car customisation. The worst part is American cars. I wonder why American manufacturers don't connect the steering wheel to the front wheels. I know they have long straight roads there but there are some corners.
Saturday
A sleepy dog, some old video games, and a walk around some new routes right next to some old routes.
Spider-Man Miles Morales
I right-place-right-timed my way to a PS5 this week. It's the first time in ages that I haven't picked up a console I wanted on launch day.
I wasn't rushing to get one because there wasn't a launch title that I was drawn to, but that turned out to be wrong.
Phone
Lots of pictures of me on my phone the last couple of weeks. I think I might finally be going insane.
Modding Game Boy Color
There's a time and a place for ROMs. With original hardware and software getting more and more expensive, they're the only reasonable option for most people. But part of the fun for me is in messing about with stuff!
Two Weeks
It's a phone dump! Been using the iPhone 12 Pro. Camera's very good actually. Been leaving my SLR at home.
Horizon Zero Dawn
When this game came out, I think it was super close to Breath of the Wild (I could look it up but why would I), so I was completely distracted. I'd been meaning to play it. It looked great, but Zelda just got in the way.
Need for Speed Heat
Me: If I can get an RX-7 in this game I'm going to leave it completely stock.
Also me:
A sure thing
Sometimes a studio or publisher will luck into a game so perfect that they have to systematically destroy it in order to prove just how brilliant it is.
