Man, the current era of AI slop really got me to the point where I *rejoice* if I encounter even just a tiny bit of actual human effort.

I had to go on Twitter to confirm this was real because Ship Awesome Games In A Weekend having a hand with six fingers was so on the nose I was about to pass out

This shit just writes itself at this point. Just the name "Epic AI MegaJam" is a joke that best describes what is going on with these companies.

My favorite BioWare memory isn't a game, it's interviewing the Doctors at GDC 2008. Rather than talk up their own work, they wanted to gush about Eternal Sonata—how someone turned their Chopin obsession into an RPG. Their excitement over using games for personal expression seems extra poignant today

I’ve never read or seen Narnia but this poster absolutely rules

What can you say? This was the definite winner they will never top. Also one of the best things I've seen at any PRGE #PRGE #PRGE2026

5K update: I did.

Running 3 miles is nothing to runners. It may be nothing to you. But to me, it's something I've never been able to achieve. I always quit. I always give up. The only direction I've ever run is away. But now I'm proving to myself that I can do it. I've nearly gone the distance. Next week, I will.

Gilt is my most anticipated adventure game in a long, long time. Ben’s crushing it, as usual.

Ben Chandler@threeohfour.bsky.social

In Gilt you play an outcast priest, haunted by a dying God, wielding divine powers in your travels through a strange world. But more importantly, you get to meet this lizard (frog?) guy. store.steampowered.com/app/3979770/...

I'm running my last day of Couch-to-5K this morning, a 3-month journey that represents the first time I've ever truly cared about improving my health. My first 5K is next Sunday with a few good pals. Protomen Act 3 has been my go-to for each run: the story of an uprising against impossible odds.

It's finally over. I've hit my goal and it's time to cool down. But there's more work to be done, so sometimes, I just keep running - because just as Megaman promises the City, I promise myself: "I can't change the past, but I know now, I see now, I never should have left you behind."

I'm now around the 22 minute mark, and I'm usually digging for the will to keep going. I'm still so out of shape, and trying to fight on. The Girl urges me on: "We're gonna keep getting stronger, not afraid to risk it all; but the choice now is yours, how we'll stand or how we'll fall."

In the last few minutes, I'm often searching desperately for my resolve. My legs are weak, my lungs are burning, but I can't give up. I haven't yet, and I won't now. "I'll give you one more word of wisdom: when you stand and face the gates of Hell, you're on your own. You're all you've got."

The run begins with a storm of guitar and drums that pumps blood through my veins as the Girl challenges Dr. Light to find his courage. "When the voice from the shadows calls you, when the wind whips past your ears, will you stand when the weight is upon you, or will you go to your knees in fear?"

I've noticed that by the end of the first mile, my legs are starting to burn. But I won't give up, because Dr. Wily is facing me down, needle buried in the red, running the City on fear and never looking back. "You've only got yourself to blame if you get left behind."

It’s been said a million times but saying Suno solved music is like saying you’ve solved soccer by installing a conveyor belt that delivers the ball directly to the net and expecting people to buy tickets
