  • What’s bizarre is that they used to do a lot of these collections for PS3 but then stopped! Did you know Jak & Daxter had an HD remastered collection of all 3 games, and the ones they’re selling on PS4/PS5 are emulated ones that don’t have any of it? They went through a ton of effort remastering Sly, Jak, Ratchet and Clank’s first three games… Then did nothing with it.



  • It’s not even copyright, they’re suing for using things they patented, but their patents are extremely general. I kid you not, they have a patent for MOUNTING CREATURES, something hundreds of games have done.

    Abstract: In an example of a game program, a ground boarding target object or an air boarding target objects is selected by a selection operation, and a player character is caused to board the selected boarding target object. If the player character aboard the air boarding target object moves toward the ground player character automatically changed to the state where the player character is aboard the ground boarding target object, and brought into the state where the player character can move on the ground.

    I’m no lawyer so I can’t tell you how well this would hold up in court but it’s ridiculous. See more: https://patents.justia.com/assignee/the-pokemon-company

    I bought it and am having a blast as well! There are definitely games I dislike, especially Barbuta (the first one). I get what it’s going for but eugh, too slow and clunky.

    Magic Garden was the first game I beat - and it’s the only one I have a cherry disk on. Lots of fun, it’s not that hard once it clicks.

    I’ve only went through the first ten games and my favorites are Magic Garden, Mortol, and Velgress. The latter two are kicking my ass, but I keep coming back.



  • Everyone: I wish Mozilla would just focus on their browser and not their other BS

    fast forward to them cutting costs on a Mastodon server that nobody uses

    Everyone: WTF??? I KNEW MOZILLA WAS A FAILURE OF A COMPANY CORPORATIONS ARE NOT OUR FRIENDS WHAT CLOWNS

    Threads like this make me wonder why any corporation would bother with the fediverse when this is how most people are on mastodon
