Ok so if you’re like me, and you occasionally watch episodes of “House Hunters”, but only the ones with gay guys based on the thumbnail… you can imagine my devastation when I learned this was actually a father/son episode.

Not a great game, but one of the most badass NES box arts!

Discerning gamers looking for spooky titles this October, I have 2 high recommendations. “Dagon” is an immersive visual journey through Lovecraft’s story - gave me near-constant goosebumps. “The Excavation of Hob’s Barrow” is full of mounting dread, superb writing, and a horrific, haunting ending.

Happy Anniversary to Undertale! One of my favorite videogames ever... So I drew a little something for the occasion. 🎉🥧❤️

Am I crazy for considering to learn to change the oil in my car by myself? Can gay guys do stuff like that?

Aww. 6 years ago we found out our hot neighbor was gay 😳 We became fast friends and tried our best to seduce him, but he never accepted. Sadly he moved away about a year later. He’ll never know what he missed out on! But I saved this text he sent us early one morning when we had our windows open. 🥰

Alundra (1998, PS1)
Rating: 9/10

Truly challenging. Will test your patience and reflexes. Deceptively massive world and dungeons. Devilishly tough puzzles. Remains one of the very best Zelda-like games out there. Quite a somber tale for 1998, full of death and tragedy. Would love a modern remake!

I FINISHED ALUNDRA. Review coming soon. After essentially soft-locking myself in my first playthrough (40+ hrs), I started a new game 😮‍💨 And around 25hrs later I rolled credits. On this second playthrough, I kept track of how many characters die. My tally was 24 villagers. This game is bleak AF. ⚰️⚰️⚰️⚰️

TMI update: I had a colonoscopy today. 😳 Just a routine screening now that I’m 45. The procedure was easy enough, and no signs of any concerns, which is comforting to know! But man the last 2 days prepping were physically demamding and tiring, even by gay standards. Make sure you have nowhere to be!

- The daily video game history fact -

LSD: Dream Emulator (1998) was based on a dream diary kept by game designer Hiroko Nishikawa for over a decade. The game is frequently cited as one of the most experimental works in video game history.

Temu AI calendar, you had ONE job to do. All I see are shirted cowboys! 😂

(to avoid being canceled let me clarify I did not order this, it was just a sponsored ad I found amusing. Thank you for your time)

I’ve sunk 40+ hours into “Alundra” - my first full playthrough since 1998 - and I may be at a point I can’t continue. Stuck on a VERY difficult late-game boss and I’m unable to go back and stock up on items/gear. No backup save file from earlier progress. I might try again tomorrow, but for now… ✌️
