YSK: There's an easy way to make retro game memes

Jump

  • The effort that goes into adding a game to the Death Generator makes it 100% worth using, even if you can use PS.

    • Why do people switch from chrome to Brave browser and not to Firefox?

    Jump

  • Don't you normally test in Firefox as well?

    • Does anyone truly think times are better now than 30 years ago? (US)

    Jump

  • Implying that the CRT has yet to be improved upon in any material sense. (Okay, maybe in terms of weight.)

    • What was the last image you saved from the internet?

    Jump

    • Bring them back!!!

    Jump

  • I've just realised - Hammond was such a cheapskate that even the seatbelts in the helicopters didn't work properly.

    • I dislike it when somebody says "so" and then pauses.

    Jump

  • Maybe they're just enthusiastic about the seminal Peter Gabriel album.

    • systemd has been a complete, utter, unmitigated success

    Jump

  • Dunno. I feel like if you've used an image from a reputable source under the proviso that you're licensed for it, and it turns out you're not... you may be able to blame Unsplash etc. and just swap the image out.

    • Has anyone ever read the book series “Biff, Chip & Kipper” as a kid?

    Jump

  • I remember they were graded in colours. I read them so much they ran out of colours to give me.

    • systemd has been a complete, utter, unmitigated success

    Jump

  • Unsplash, Freepik, Pexels, and countless other sites exist where you can get free images with clear licensing.

    • How much spacing while stopped at a red light?

    Jump

  • Tyres and tarmac!

    • Do you think it would be more cool if society kept using tech like telephones (the non-"smart" type), pagers, telegraphs, and radios, instead of the internet?

    Jump

  • I think the problem is too many people only know how to JavaScript

    • If you could get something for free the whole year, what would it be?

    Jump

  • It uses a pretty nasty slur, true, but in the context of some ignorant jerk who thinks he's better than everyone. I don't believe Knopfler is a homophobe.

    • Silverfall is low-poly and low mercy

    Jump

  • Oh I see - I don't know why, but I assumed this was a new game.

    • Silverfall is low-poly and low mercy

    Jump

  • Oh no, we're getting to the point where PS2-era visuals are considered low-poly??

    • What's your LEAST favorite song

    Jump

    • What are some great retro games that I can play with my 5yo?

    Jump

  • This is true! If you don't have a frame of reference for what is "good" (or what everyone else considers "good") then who the heck cares, play what you want

    Jump

  • Lode Runner (NES) might be okay. Not multiplayer, but it's got nice low-stakes puzzling gameplay.

    Edutainment games are a bit few and far between on consoles - Donkey Kong Jr. Math springs to mind, but it's remarkably dry for a Nintendo game.

    Jump

  • The 2600 version is considered extremely bad. (It's not that bad but it's also not arcade-accurate)

    There's a SNES version of Ms. Pac-Man which is extremely good, though.

    • You're asked to vote for the food and drink that best fits the region you live in... What would you vote for?

    Jump

  • A plate of beige with watery gravy and mushy peas

    • Hytale, once touted as the Minecraft killer, is ceasing development

    Jump

  • Doesn't even have the usual "we value your privacy" lie.
