My dude, you are in luck. Check out Unicorn Overlord!

It is absolutely a love letter to March of the Black Queen and Ogre Battle 64. As usual for their games, Vanillaware's art is outstanding.


Thanks for this. Had never heard of it. Unfortunately, no PC port :(

But yeah, OB64 sits stop a pedestal in its own gallery for me.


It's so frustrating that Unicorn Overlord doesn't have a PC port. Unfortunately, the devs seem to be anti-PC, despite lots of calls for it, from both fans and the publisher.

I felt like I was speaking to a wall for years. Glad I'm not alone in my views of OB64!

Same as the other poster, I can't play it, as I have no Playstation newer than a PS2. Maybe one day it'll get ported or someone else will create something for the PC.

Sure you can. It'll just take a little while to shake the rust off. It's like riding a bike.

Or maybe it's all gone forever and we're all brain damaged now. Spooky! I think there's a pretty low probability of that, and even if it was true, worrying doesn't help!


Certainly we should celebrate Morodor here too...

Lots of community radio still out there! I assume bigger cities would have a solid live music and radio community too.


For me the height of the 16-bit era was Final Fantasy VI, but wow was Phantasy Star IV great. The intro, the savage twang of those Genesis basslines, the aesthetics, it was really something special.


I think we all deserve a little break right now.


I'm experimenting with a simple ritual: if Claude is out, I'm out.

I'll just go for a walk outside.

And I don't mean "if I can't access Claude to do my work", I mean, just in general - I'll just ping claude.ai from time to time and use Claude's breaks as a break reminder.

Why should AI get a breather and not us?


I saw DJ Shadow and Cut Chemist's Afrika Bambaataa tribute and it was just outstanding. One of the best shows I've seen and some seriously talented people. Then I learned more about Afrika and how his misdeeds were mostly ignored.

When I open up a famous author / musician / athlete's wikipedia page, it feels like it's a coin flip over whether there's some horrible thing they've done and largely gotten away with it.

I'm still upset about Neil Gaiman. I connected deeply with a lot of his work in my youth and now I don't know what to think...


A disc looks like a disc, and a disk doesn't look like a disc.


Removeable glass magnetic platters were called disk packs and definitely disc shaped (but sometimes cylindrical if it had many platters).
