Specifically for older titles, I’d definitely say a game like, if anyone could find the original first version to ever be released of the game and not one of the many rip-offs/clones, Tetris. It’s probably, as far as I’m aware, the most copied/cloned/ripped-off game in existence.

As for newer titles ( 2000 onwards ), I can’t think of any that I think should 100% be in museum. Most of the titles I can think of aren’t good enough, in my opinion, to go into a museum. I’m not an expert on judging what should go into a museum, but I couldn’t think of a single title that would fit in any exhibit.

Edit:

Tetris is already in the video game hall of fame. Should have figured. Definitely deserves its place there. Even so, someone with a floppy of the original or clone of the floppy or digital backup should definitely see if there are any museums willing to take a copy because the original is something I think would be a shame to completely lose.

My first thought when I read the cheese section was “Not even Wensleydale?”. Disappointed Wallace Face

I don’t have many disc based PC games anymore. Last I played one was less than a month ago ( don’t know exactly how long ago ) and it was Luxor. I have a few others on disc, but I either don’t have them installed or haven’t played them in a while.

Not including Luxor because I already listed it, I also currently have Super Collapse, Morrowind and Oblivion ( both with expansions ), Brok The Investigator ( have it on Steam so I don’t play the disk version or use the official collectors edition USB containing an installer either ), Rollercoaster Tycoon 2 and one of the expansions, some Dosney rollercoaster builder game that is pretty bad, and a normal blackjack game.

As for my absolute favorite, that’s the easiest question ever: Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 Platinum.

I also have another one that I loved that I cannot remember or find basically anything about it anywhere in the web because it was probably some demo to a full game that wasn’t out or didn’t release. The whole thing was a mini-golf like hole where it starts you off in front of a drive-in movie theater with cars parked parallel to the screen, like they’re parking in a parking lot at a grocers. You had to hit the ball up a ramp and into the screen, which was showing a black and white swamp film. You’d be sent into the movie and had to put around the water to get to the hole. Camera wouldn’t move unless you entered a different area. Anybody know literally anything about that?

I mean, isn’t that just GOG though? At least for the majority of the titles they sell?

To see all Oaken Tower players have their computer mice overheat when playing that game. To the point where an hour of playing it would make their mice unusable.

Totally genie like behavior. I love it.

I know this is more of a serious thing, but I was thinking that I kinda hope these payment processors try to ban some big European company over some puritanical bullshit and then Europe responds with threatening a complete ban on them to put them in line. Ain’t no way any payment processor would ever risk being banned in one of the largest markets in the world.

Assuming we’re being facetious here, 100% agree.

Hell, if extwitter gets banned, it’d be hilarious because then there would probably be laws changed to ensure only the government can select what gets banned. Though, not so hilarious in the current state of the world.

That’s some real good odds if you ask me.

Anytime I see a conservative group like them, regardless of country of origin, try to take the moral high ground on anything sexual related, I immediately assume there’s a 500% chance they’re trying to get the exact same thing they do in private banned for everyone else.

For now, based on an initial reading, definitely support Italy in this one.

Not hard for me to, if the reporting is correct. Who wouldn’t support big tech having to pay tax on the ability to collect your data besides the braindead?

Definitely heard of it. Had no idea what it was for. Good to know, I guess.

Kinda fucked up that this person moderated hate posts only to find the child predators posting images of their kids on a different forum.

Don’t know about you, but whenever I see hate groups specifically targeting children, I think the intention is very clear. Not just spreading hate, but also wanting to act on one of the socially forbidden sex acts as well.

I vote we try it with a bunch of old point and click adventure games like Monkey Island or any other that have simplistic enough graphics and gameplay. Couldn’t tell you how to do it because I don’t know what code they run and how inefficient it could be by the standards at the time, but I feel like a lot of old point and click games could probably run just fine on a lot of modern devices that aren’t computers, if given a Doom level community support.

He releases the Epstein Files, unredacted, and maybe they Washington Commanders will change their name back.

In fact, until he does, I vote they change their name to the Washington Epsteins!

Well, since music is out of the question, it’s always possible to do things like finding old games you like online through places like MyAbandonware and attempting to burn them to a CD/DVD and seeing if they work. Not as convenient as just using something like DOSBox, but definitely rewarding in my opinion.

Mini golf FTW!

Maybe not on the main channels I tend to watch on yt, but there’s one who I have pretty much completely stopped watching ( GrayStillPlays ) because I just wasn’t as interested anymore. I come back one day recently to check out a Universe Sandbox video he just posted that day and the second he started asking I think it was chatgpt something about a little laser pointer, IIRC, I immediately noped out of the video.

I ain’t supporting him if he’s just gonna use an “AI” LLM to get the info he wants. I could at least, before LLMs became the big bubble they are, look past him just casually asking g••gle using the shitty voice assistant thing because it’s whatever, but can’t for “AI” LLMs.

Regardless of whether or not it’s truly happening, can you say “Dystopia”?

Regardless of what country does it, I will absolutely call every country that replaces all humans with robo workers for mundane jobs like that dystopian.

Gotta assume that if any Arch users actually fell for that one, that they either let their kids use their device or they’re generally not smart ( which absolutely goes against my stereotypical view of an arch user ).
