Veteran video game score composer Bobby Prince has died at the age of 81.

Responsible for the sound track of some of the most seminal FPS games released in the early to mid 90's, his music was etched into the consciousness of countless gamers discovering early 3D worlds.

His score for Doom was inducted into the National Recording Registry in 2026.

Been playing so much fucking Mega Man
Feeling kind of annoyed with myself.
After coming out, I got a little too raw with my realization of sexism everywhere and it kind of super fueled my misandry... and I had a hard time even playing games where you're a guy... and like... I used to fucking love Mega Man... it was my absolute favorite... but when I hit that point, all those "Man"s just pissed me off and I was like "Fuck this franchise".
I've stabilized a bit more now... and god... I forgot how much I loved this little blue fucker.

I beat Mega Man 1 and X, started on 2 and X2 as well as Legends 1 for when I want a bit more adventuring... and I even gave Misadventures Of Tron Bonne a whirl... it feels like a Team Rocket simulator. I fucking love it.

Been playing a bit of Valheim this week with 16yo son.

It is a relentlessly unforgiving game. Death = lose everything, including 10% off your skill abilities.

I am presently running around the forest with nothing but a loincloth, a raspberry and a rock.

The building element would be cosy if it weren't for the deathsquitos.

Upon running across the swamps to recover our boat, we discovered it was beached (unsure how) but was promptly destroyed by a serpent.

Anyone playing #7dtd #7DaysToDie ?

Been playing on and off for about 6 years, sometimes with friends but mostly single player. Was feeling the urge to play with people again (my gaming buddies are too entrenched in ESO lol) so tried a couple public servers.

The first one seemed active, was on day 314 when I joined and a couple very friendly players gifted me some armour and weapons and invited me to their base for horde night. It was really fun (HOW many zombies?!) and exciting, until the base owner threw a hissy fit because he didn't get the most kills and locked everyone in, preventing us from leaving and looting bags. An argument developed in chat and I just left. Don't need that drama.

2nd one was on day 13 when I joined but no-one else was around so left as I didn't want to advance them to day 14 if they weren't online to take part. Posted on their discord, no response, so I guess pretty dead.

3rd one was on day 164 when I joined, set about gathering resources and base building, said hello in chat but no response, turn got accused of copying someones base (it was a build I found on YouTube that has proven to work and is my go to, so wasn't even their idea lol) and kicked off.

So I'm looking for a chill group to join that none of the above 😁 I'm guessing that anyone using Mastadon is going to be awesome to game with!

I'm in the UK and usually game between 6pm and 10pm, sometimes more in the day if work is slow, more on a Sunday.

I can heartily recommend "Fabledom" both at full-price and it's a near "must-buy" on sale.

It's a cute, funny and silly city-builder with decent economics, some combat for fun and the expected "nobles don't want peasants nearby"-style mechanics. Sprinkle in some inter-kingdom trade and romance and you check all the expected boxes.

But the reason to buy is... just how relaxing and tranquil playing it is? While you absolutely can fail, the tutorial teaches you at a sensible pace how to play and the difficulty floor is really quite low for the genre.

Zen/10, do recommend.

Research has me constantly under pressure. I'm 2 years sober of alcohol, I stopped smoking 1 month and a half ago and I don't even drink coffee anymore, only tea, because I was drinking too much coffee. I needed something to decompress.

So I started playing video games. But this computer, although it has a RTX 5070 GPU, was built for machine learning development, not for gaming.

Yesterday I changed the CPU from a ryzen 5 7600X to a ryzen 7 9800X3D and games run smoothly since then. It cost a lot of money but I saved up by not smoking. It took me about 30 minutes to replace the CPU and it went without a hitch.

So now on evenings I force myself to stop doing research and I immerse myself in the universe of The Witcher 3.
