I asked a buddy that works at Amazon about the outage and he pointed me to this article.

I know quite a few people who currently work there and pretty much all of them are trying to leave.

Hol up, DS is now old enough to be considered retro‽

Why does my back hurt so much? Unrelated I’m sure.

A person I know (and don’t particularly like) created a start up on this idea a couple of years ago already. It’s creepy AF.

It has now been officially confirmed that he is in fact dead.

I think I had to step away for a few minutes after that

It’s pretty different from the other games listed so far, but I’ll toss it a recommendation for Oxenfree. At least for me, that game did oppressive creepy atmosphere better than just about any other I’ve played. When it first came out we were dealing with a massive heatwave and I would be shivering while playing it in a 100f+ apartment.

An older one I always really like as well was the very first F.E.A.R. game.

It’s just a year shy of being two decades old. Even Skyrim is over a decade old at this point.

A sense of pride and accomplishment, right?

Right…?

At that point it’s not theft, it’s reappropreation.
