    In 50 years I reckon the one on the left might have aged better. Based solely on past performance, cutesy stylised graphics of the N64 kick the shit out of almost anything the technically superior PS1 put out.

    ETA : Stylised things from ps1 are excluded from that statement. Crash bandicoot and the like.




  • I peaked hard on Halo. I wish I had the gear/inclination to start a YouTube channel for it. Back in those days YouTube wasn’t the high-paying career it is today, and i was convinced it would be a waste of money to get the gear required to start one.

    I’ve properly grown up since then though, and now im nowhere near the best at any video game. I often wonder how different life would be if I’d managed to just sit at home playing games every day and be a near millionaire from it.







  • Recurring theme, hard to pick the scariest, but there’s a shape-shifter after me, like the liquid terminator or something. I know what it is, it thinks I know but might not be able to catch me. It tries to get close to me while I try to get away without letting on that I know. Really socially tense and my life is on the line.

    Scariest one was the first time I remember having it. My dad took the dog for a big walk and drove off in the car. A couple minutes later my dad walks in the house without a car, staring eye contact at me, absolutely neutral expression, and walking slowly towards me. I ask where the dog is and he doesnt even respond, just walks back out the room and reappears immediately with the dog on the lead, also staring at me. I don’t remember how that one ends, but they got more convoluted and cat-and-mousey after that. Sometimes I got away and sometimes it caught me and stabbed me up.

    Now any time anyone starts acting strange around me I always pinch my nose to see if im dreaming. I haven’t had that dream for about 15 years but it sticks with me.
