It doesn't happen all the time, but sometimes games include too much film. In Banjo-Kazooie, the bad guys have their own credits roll.

A year ago, I assembled this controller.
Although it's easier to set up in Windows than a Steam controller, I still took this apart, just because it's too ugly.

Alundra 2's graphics were rough around the edges, yet it still had interesting content, like the scene where the protagonist sees a giant key in the distance, covered in scaffolding.

I'd like to put a gaming PC inside a red and black plastic enclosure. They're not very easy to find.
I'm thinkin' about using a toolbox as an enclosure.

I watched Jason and The Argonauts the other day. I couldn't understand the story, but I DID want answers to Ali G's question about why skeletons are always involved in evil.

When I bought this in a used game store, the counter guy asked me what fighting games I was interested in.
The answer was..... zero.
I said there were about 4 locally-made games that would probably work with this.

PCs should be able to launch games at least as smoothly as a Nintendo 64 could.
I'm old enough to remember when software just opened and then you could start working.
Now it's: wait, checking for updates, installing updates (wait I didn't want to install an update), checking for updates, please login, ask for 2FA code, login to 2FA app, verify email, why did I open this again?

I recommend not requiring delicate mouse movement in point-and-click games.
