It’s broadcast seasons vs how many purchases (“episode orders”) were made. Fox aired 5 but paid for 4 (held back some episodes), then the movies, Comedy Central aired across 4 seasons but made 2 episode orders, and now Hulu split their first order across 2 aired seasons.

Aired: 5 Fox, 1 movies, 4 CC, 2 Hulu -> season 12.

Orders: 4 Fox, 1 movies, 2 CC, 1 Hulu -> Season 8.

(Hulu made a second episode order already, but since that wouldn’t start until at least next year I didn’t count it. Assuming it’s split again, it’ll be seasons 13+14 or 9.)

Cool. Reminds me of kkrieger from…20 years ago? Where’d that time go.

Scam. Note the low user score too, and user reviews saying how bad the app is. The official site is Deltarune.com. if it’s not listed there (which this isn’t), don’t trust it.

Pong is over 50. For that matter, Tennis for Two is coming up on 70.

Sorry, but Acclaim really was that wild for a bit there. They also had a promotion where you’d get a free copy of one of the Turok games if you named a newborn child after him. For what it’s worth, I don’t think anyone took them up on either offer, but it certainly brought in the publicity.

Pac-Man on the Atari 2600. I understand the complaints about that port, but I’ll always have a soft spot for it for getting me into the hobby way back when.

Man, even in the source video he looks like a kid with a man’s head. Creepy.

Didn’t the books reveal it was “what is 6x9”, and the calculation getting thrown off when humans arrived on Earth?

I’m confused why Kotaku mentioning next gen in the title when Rockstar only commented on current generation PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.

Because they’re still referring to PS5 and XSX as “next gen”, which is ridiculous this far into a generation. I’m glad even their own commenters are calling that out.

I more meant the narrow intersection of 2 larger genres that rarely cross over, particularly these days.

Though having said that, I do feel like the only person still talking about them anymore. It’s so rare to see them brought up in casual conversations outside their dedicated Steam forums.

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew. From the little-known “stealth tactics” micro-genre. It really felt like the culmination of what the studio learned from their previous few games. It took some familiar abilities from all the way back to the original Desperados 20 years ago, then added several brand new ones that almost feel OP and make each character unique. Plus if you have a checklist-oriented brain, there are so many optional objectives encouraging you to replay missions in different ways.

I understand some fans weren’t huge on the reuse of levels, but the missions either use different parts of them or have you approach familiar guard setups from completely different directions, keeping them feeling fresh (at least to me).

It’s a real shame developer Mimimi is closing down, though I’m glad they get to wind down gradually and on their own terms. I’m so used to companies trying a new project, running out of money, and closing suddenly.

I was lucky enough to have the manual for ET lying around. It helps greatly in explaining the game’s bizarre logic (and how to escape the infamous pits). It’s not much weirder than most 2600 games once you read it, provided somebody didn’t throw it out thinking it was useless.

The new order will bring the show to Seasons 13 and 14 (or 10 and 11 depending on how you break it down).

I’ve heard this year’s season called either 8 or 11, but never 9 or 12. I wonder how this article was counting them.

I’m so happy someone other than me remembers Radar Mission. I too still get the music stuck in my head from time to time.

You can save and quit in Zelda, it just takes 2 controllers. You had to pause with controller 1 then hit Up+A on controller 2.

I still haven’t paid to remove ads, and no Adguard, yet I’ve never had a single ad show up. I wonder if there’s a bug.

Bethesda put out a long video around Summer Game Fest that spent 45 minutes showing most of the gameplay systems in the game. It was honestly a bit overwhelming.

Reviewers are quiet because the NDA is still active. It should end sometime today (Aug 31).

Are they really describing Valhalla as a 100-hour game? I spent that long on Origins, and Valhalla has way more to it.

But overall a shorter AC game sounds great. I miss the days when even going for 100% took 45 hours instead of triple digits.

I can’t get past “Verbwire”. Like they picked the second half of the name, but then creativity ran out.

It’s wonky on desktop, however. The lines double up much like it does on Reddit.
