Here is a treat for you Hamster.  I found some boxes and posted an article for you:

Nice! I wish I still had all my PC big boxes and manuals.

I loved my Sierra game boxes. So big and so impressive displayed on my desk shelf. Especially Damn the environmentalists making us shrink it all down.

It's not the environmentalists (though I know you are tongue in cheek), it's the capitalists. The promise was, "we spend over 60% of cost o nphysical media, transport and retail commission, so when we go digital games will cost less".  Assholes.

Funny thing about highspeed internet. I've been cut off high speed for going over my 100 GB limit (so now they cut me down to I don't know, 14,400 bps or whatever).  The internet is mostly still functional -- it's just the streaming stuff that completely refuses to work.

VGP is very low-bandwidth friendly. Gameunder won't load, and forget about stuff like Discord.

I remember the old days of going over a download limit (back when my limit was 20 GB a month). I had to turn images off so I could use GameSpot at dial-up speed. I'm surprised that's still happening.

I thought my Switch Pro controller died last night. It would not connect to my docked Switch, not even with the USB cable plugged in; and it was fully charged too. Eventually, I manually restarted the Switch and it finally worked. That never happened before. I did not want to buy another $70 controller. My Switch be getting old now and forgetting how to do basic shit...just like me. LOL

NES controllers on the other hand? Still working perfectly almost 40 years later.

this weekend was initially filled with city building and world conquering with Sim City and Civ 6.

this afternoon I decided to boot up some Street Fighter 6 arcade mode and tried out Stellar blade's new Boss Rush too. So far it's been a pretty fun weekend. 👍

Not much gaming for me this weekend. Did finish Hellblade II which I very much enjoyed and played a little bit of Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door. Most of the weekend has been about Wrestling. Watch WWE King of the Ring yesterday and am getting ready to watch AEW Double or Nothing tonight.

I'm wrapping up my playthrough of Shadow of the Tomb Raider. I'm enjoying it but its not quite as good as the 2013 one.

Most of my gaming this weekend was spent with the Saboteur. The game is fairly dangerous for me to play, because it makes me really want to drink wine.

I need to get back to that one. I'm like half way through, I think.

For years I had images turned off on my browser for the last third of the month!

Yikes, just realized I typed in the wrong name. I meant Rise of the Tomb Raider.

Finished the main game in Snowrunner 240 hrs.

I will be buying the dlc when on sale.

Endless Ocean 3 hasn't sold so I'll casually try it again.

Played another 20 mins of Endless Ocean Luminous.

It's a game about nothing, with nothing to do. Might as well call it Empty Ocean Online.

I turned if off in disgust. Good riddance to this POS.

Started Crowns and Pawns

Awesome so far. Lovely mix of 3d character models and 2D backgrounds. Very much in the Broken Sword style.

Along with Zombie Detective I feel like adventure games are just as good as they used to be now.
