New video by Illusory Wall on the multiplayer mechanics of the Gravelord Servant Covenant. A really interesting breakdown of how one of the game's most ridiculously obscure systems works! If you're not interested in watching an hour-long video on this subject, you should know that the section from about 9:00 to 29:00 is mainly a long list of the positions of all the additional phantom enemies, so you can safely skip those 20 mins.

Cracker:

One thing you can try to help diagnose the problem: remove the internal HDD (very easy on the Slim), maybe also plug in and format a USB memory stick, and see how it runs. If it works OK like that, it suggests that the issue is with the hard disk drive. That's what I had to do: five years ago, my 360 refused to boot, just stuck on the logo screen while making a worrying clicking sound. Removed the HDD and plugged in a USB stick, and it worked fine. I was able to get a new (bigger!) replacement official 360 HDD - not sure how easy they are to get these days.

I liked Haunted Elevator/David S Pumpkins.

Digital Foundry's video on the game's different versions. Nice attention to detail in that intro!

Posted this in the Xbox thread, but here's a list of the games that are getting delisted in different ways, with direct links to the en-US marketplace pages:

Hello from nearly 12 years in the future! At last we have the answer, thanks to this N64 fan demake: The hula hoop analogy that I illustrated on the first page of this thread is also acknowledged and tested... (We hit 19 pages on this subject! Blimey.)

It really f**ks me off (mildly annoys me) when school/college classroom scenes are written to suggest that we're joining them at a point very early in the lesson (professors introducing themselves by writing their name on the board; teachers telling the class to open their books; lecturers starting to introduce the very basics of a brand new subject)... but then the bell rings to end the lesson only a minute or two after the scene starting. It's clear why they do it that way: it's an efficient way to include the exposition of the teacher introducing a subject that'll be relevant later, plus some character moments as the students talk to each other as they leave, and having characters leave a classroom is a good way to transition to the next scene set elsewhere. But once you start wondering "is a teacher really likely to be talking in that way, that close to the end of the lesson?" you start noticing it everywhere.

1. Street Fighter 6 2. Hades 2 3. Those games we haven't actually seen anything of yet, and will probably end up disappointing, but I'm looking forward to them because the IP is familiar: 007, Wonder Woman, Perfect Dark.

In many cases, isn't that just because the backwards compatibility on One X/Series S/Series X enhances them to 60fps?
