What a stream! UFO 50 comes highly recommended by me, and I'm definitely going to play a bunch of those games to completion!

And we're live with UFO 50! www.youtube.com/live/_YvoU21...

We're live in 10 minutes with UFO 50! Link: www.youtube.com/live/_YvoU21...

50 Games?! Can we get through them all in one stream? Probably not, but let's try anyways! We're playing UFO 50 in an hour over on YouTube! Link: youtube.com/live/_YvoU21...

Headed up to visit the parents and they got baby chicks! They're supposed to have more later this week!

I've wanted another sequel to Retro Game Challenge for the longest time...and I think I finally got it! Tomorrow at 7PM EST, we're playing UFO 50, a massive collection of games made by a bunch of indie devs! Super excited for this one! Link: www.youtube.com/live/_YvoU21...

My new song I made for streams, "Diving For Gems", is available to listen to now! You can also download it for free in the links below!

Hey everyone! I've made a lot of music in the past for things like my RPG Maker games (Endless Chaos especially), but tomorrow I'll be releasing something completely different to complement our usual pre-stream visuals! Here's a preview:

You've got half an hour left to vote! Go go go! youtube.com/post/UgkxTkX...

Don't forget! You've got until 3PM EST later today to vote on this week's stream game! youtube.com/post/UgkxTkX...

Hey look at that, I remembered to put the poll up early this week! Nothing fancy for the Thursday stream poll this time: It's your choice of a VR game or the mystery option (both last week's losers!) Have fun! youtube.com/post/UgkxTkX...

SO! Want to know what was causing all the problems with Thursday's stream? Windows had an update and re-enabled Hyper-V, which was conflicting with VirtualBox and causing the sound issues. Thanks Microsoft! I brought proof that everything we played Thursday is working now:

Oh yeah, I had someone ask me, "Why don't you stream for longer, Drue?" so I wanted to answer that here: I would if I could! Some times I have work the next day, but mostly it's due to my roommate going to bed right as we wrap things up! It also keeps a consistent schedule!

Well, that was a very scuffed but fun stream! I think the next time we revisit the idea we'll make sure it's on real hardware! I'll try to have the Windows XP machine built for when that day comes! Thanks as always to everyone that comes around!

And we're live with Budget PC Games #2 www.youtube.com/live/BCyBFBn...

We're live in 10 minutes with Budget PC Games! www.youtube.com/live/BCyBFBn...

We're live in an hour with the return of Budget PC Games! As a kid, there were times I could only afford what was on discount. Did any of these games I played as a kid hold up? Let's find out together! Link: www.youtube.com/live/BCyBFBn...

Is it time to apologize to Todd Howard yet?

Oh dang, I uploaded the wrong version of the thumbnail everywhere, cause Recker's supposed to be smiling! Here you go!

Well! It's certainly been a LONG time since we did this stream idea! Come join me tomorrow at 7PM EST as we play a bunch of old budget PC games I had as a kid! Will nostalgia keep its hold, or were they meant to be forgotten? Link: www.youtube.com/live/BCyBFBn...

Whooooooo boy! The game industry has still learned nothing from Don Mattrick: wccftech.com/nintendo-ste...

adobe deleted their post so this one's for posterity

And the winner is...Budget PC Games!

You've still got an hour left to vote on Thursday's stream poll! youtube.com/post/Ugkxrq8...

Anyone want a copy of Dune?

Don't forget: You've got until 3PM EST to vote on this Thursday's stream game! Budget PC Games is wildly in the lead! youtube.com/post/Ugkxrq8...

Poll's up! We've got the two losing choices from last week, plus the return of a stream idea I haven't done in a LONG time! Have fun voting! youtube.com/post/Ugkxrq8...

And with that, Hidden sadly takes another blow to his record. Reason for match lost: Constantly getting thrown off ledges. We did get near the end though, so there's hope for the future rematch! Thanks as always to everyone who came to the stream!

The lights are dimming, the match is starting, and the crowd is cheering! We're live with Gaming Grudges #15, featuring Darkman on NES! youtube.com/live/nMJqnzS...

Be sure to hit up the concession stand quick before Hidden steps back into the ring in 10 minutes! Maybe even consider getting your girlfriend a nice pink elephant? youtube.com/live/nMJqnzS...

Get your tickets, grab your seats, and get ready for the return of Gaming Grudges! Match 15: Hidden v Darkman! Who will get violent mood swings first? Come find out in an hour! Link: youtube.com/live/nMJqnzS...

C'mon Nintendo, you've gotta be EXTRA sure people know they're Nintendo Switch 2 games:

While Hidden's celebrating his victory over X-Men 2, a dark figure emerges to take him on... Can Hidden overcome this challenger's nasty traps, or will he be forced into the sun? It's our next Gaming Grudges tomorrow at 7PM EST: Darkman! Link: www.youtube.com/live/nMJqnzS...

For $80 the the Nintendo Switch 2 carts better give out happy endings that make 1-Up noises when you finish.

And Gaming Grudges wins this week's poll!
