I love the Menger sponge cover.

A music study score of Jean Francaix's Woodwind Quartet. Here's an excellent performance of what I'll be studying:

Yes, i found this one on Joom. Instant Buy.

 

[Karnasis]

Uhhhh...

 

 

... I bought it because it's a rhythm game. No other particular reason... 😳

[Dreamskull]

Im getting into battlebit, I recommend it even though its a tad antithetical to the much older and preferable game design were all used to.

my middle school had built a level 3 sponge in like 2015 or so. Pretty cool to be honest. It's in the library of the school

Picked this up for £4 since I've been on something of an AG racing kick as of late.

Aggressively early 2000's. This looks like something that I would've left sitting on the rental shelf back in the day, but might enjoy a heck of a lot now. I love how every pilot is almost normal, and then there's suddenly The God King of Future Egypt.

Aye, it's very much a period piece at this point. It controls like a heavier version of WipEout Fusion, which follows since some of those devs worked on this.

From the video you posted, it seemed to lack a sensation of speed - just the way the terrain passes (although the environments themselves do look good). But maybe it feels better in motion; like you don't notice that too much when you're actually navigating the circuits?

WipEout it ain't - the emphasis is more on cornering and it does have that crap FOV that seems to be the hallmark of a lot of OG Xbox games. I haven't had the opportunity to really give it a chance as I only picked it up on Friday, but from what I have played of it so far it is a very different animal to any of the AG racers I've played in the past.

 

I'll be getting my teeth into it tomorrow, I'll be able to make a better judgement of it then. Even if it winds up being crap overall, it was £4.

About two months ago I got a Data Frog, a cool little $20 retro handheld emulator. And I just got a pair of wireless controllers to convert it into a home console for the kids.

No, all I have at the largest is a five-inch cup strainer that damn near did *me* in. The new chinois will beat it out by a mile.

Sounds pretty cheap, good price, as it seemingly runs PSX Games :) (or at least it seems nearly at that Level)

Not quite, but you can get systems that run PSX for not a lot more. This runs up to 16 bit systems with mixed performance on higher and SNES and GBA games.

Fanattik previously released a set of the DOOM Eternal key cards, which I didn't get. The packaging of that release was pretty poor; the foam tray has cheap cardboard covering it that easily gets torn up. Additionally, some people's keys arrived with the internal packaging already mangled. I hope the classic keys will have a better packaging design.
