A few nights ago I wrapped up my playthrough of MOUSE PI For Hire. Probably one of the most creative boomer shooters I have experienced in a long while. IGN can frankly go pound sand with that 6/10
currently obsessed with this beautiful salesman thing by @genowhirl.bsky.social

Also from my understanding, the idea of Peach and Rosalina being actual sisters was explored during development of Super Mario Galaxy way back.

A major failing of a lot of the Iran coverage by the media is that it really does a poor job of outlining just how rapidly the entire regime is fracturing into multiple factions with clashing views which makes negotiations more difficult.

Mouse: PI For Hire has made its whey onto the Game UI Database! As always, it makes me so happy to see more skeuomorphic art-led UI on the site! Brie-lliant stuff. Props to @playsidestudios.com on the launch!
Go check it out... it's grate ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡° ) www.gameuidatabase.com/gameData.php...
YouTube drama channels are bottom feeders who live on other people’s misery and problems. They’re no better than the chuds and are the digital equivalent of The National Enquirer given how much you know they’re making up.
I can’t imagine devoting your life to this shit.
In one corner crazy grandpa and his scheming viziers
In the other corner 3 factions in a trench coat who all hate each other
And in the third corner Xi and his eternal quest for corruption... and the cheapest oil
Spyro facing off with Ripto in Ripto's Arena, the final boss battle of "Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage!" for PlayStation 1. The first stage of this three-phase boss is Spyro and Ripto 1-on-1. Special colored orbs will drop from the sky throughout the battle, and collecting three will grant a particular powerup. Getting powerups is the only way to damage Ripto, but he can collect orbs as well to use against Spyro. Ripto will also employ energy blasts from his scepter.
The second phase of the battle sees Ripto summon a new mechanical version of Gulp, one of his minions Spyro defeated earlier in the game. The mecha beast isn't particularly mobile and presents a very easy target, but it's offset by the orbs dropping close to him.
The third and final phase of Ripto's Arena sees the false king summon a weird bird/rocket hybrid using a golden orb, while Spyro gains the Superflame/Superfly combo. The arena becomes entirely covered in lava, leaving no safe ground as Ripto and Spyro begin an aerial dogfight for the fate of Avalar. Drop his health and Ripto will crash into the lava, sinking to his apparent doom and ending the game.
"Ripto Defeated!" Ripto's final fight is much more of a proper boss battle than Gnasty Gnorc in Spyro 1, which was more of a glorified chase scene than anything else. As a result, it's more challenging, and if you die at any point, it's back to the first phase of the fight. Still, it's perfectly doable for anyone who's made it through the rest of the game. It also has a good music track from Stewart Copeland, although certain versions of the game may or may not include these faux-operatic vocals that try to add an "epic" quality to the fight but end up being rather cheesy and overwrought. Overall, the battle serves as a good capper to Spyro's second adventure.
Beat Spyro 2 with the final battle against Ripto, a three-stage boss. They really tried to give a proper and climatic final showdown after Spyro 1 ended with a glorified chase sequence against Gnasty Gnorc. Of course, the game isn't quite over... #retro #retrogaming #gaming #spyro #playstation #ps1
I am guessing the tails doll must been pulling some strings huh
On the flip side it's pretty much one of the cheapest systems currently available on the market right now
Can't wait to see how all the anti Nintendo grifters twist themselves into pretzels trying to explain how this report is proof of Switch 2s failure
Pokémon effect definitely at work
On the Switch 2 side, a solid debut for Pokopia and a massive jump for Mario Kart World sales. Wouldn't be surprising if new Switch 2 buyers are getting both games together
March 2026 U.S. Video Game Market Highlights Thread from Circana - US video game spending jumped 12% in March, driven by console content and hardware. Crimson Desert, MLB The Show 26 and Pokémon Pokopia were among several new releases fueling overall spending growth.
These people can't fathom the idea that people are buying Switch 2 because Nintendo gave them precisely what they asked for.
It aways astounds me how people act like Switch 2 is already dead in the water even though Nintendo by and large has basically been doing everything right in its 1st year.
If the rumors of an Ocarina of Time remake turn out true I don't think Nintendo will have to worry about a bad Christmas
Another wrinkle is that Putin may be throwing Iran under the bus now because he knows the Strait of Hormuz being shut makes it easier for him to peddle cheap Russian oil to China

Frankly baffled why anyone would think Iran is an ideal spot to host the World Cup especially considering the countries current state
The collapse of Iran was never going to be much different from the fall of other authoritarian regimes. Not overnight but a slow painful death by 1000 cuts
As I like to call it, the "keep on shoving your own dick in the blender as long as everyone else suffers" approach
Dems just forced House Republicans to pull votes on a bill to weaken the Endangered Species Act, after their support buckled. Happy Earth Day! 🌎 🌏🌎
Kinda weird seeing the freak out over gas prices right now meanwhile in Iowa premium just went down 10 cents at the station near my Walmart while Diesel dropped 50 cents
'Target: Terror' released on Wii on this day in 2008.
A port of a four-year old arcade title, T:T's Wii excursion serves as one of the most maligned games for the system. For many, the rapid-fire rail shooting action proves too difficult, and the FMV visuals too "dated."
Me thinks they are terrified of the results leaking out.
So, thread I guess
When making a deal with CBS to do a Garfield Saturday morning cartoon, Jim Davis and Lee Mendelson basically demanded two years of shows up front. 13 episodes for fall 1988, and 13 episodes for fall 1989. Easy peasy.
hadn't actually heard the PC version's title theme until now. it feels like the Act 2 or Good Future version of the amiga rendition LOL
There is only one. Happy Earth Day!

Of course they key word here is COULD since we don't know which other countries are going to help and apparently even Iran doesn't even know where the mines are or how many.
