My guess would be System Shock but I haven't played enough other FPSes on DOS to know for sure. Having to map to another device for System Shock is kinda moot tho because we have the enhanced edition now.
Ultima VII: The Black Gate, partially because it is pretty old now but now two major studio heads in the last year or so have said how much they enjoyed the game. And I think it still mostly holds up despite the dog crap combat because of how alive and interactive the world is.
Tetris Attack (SNES) is a timeless classic that can become your whole life. It's a block-stacking game, but the whole stack is dynamic and alive with possibility in a way that Tetris can hardly prepare you for. Closer to Puyo Puyo, but better than that too. The satisfaction of a well-executed skill-chain is intense, and their scope grows radically with practice.
I think it’s a bit early to define a vibe… but I think the old/young hybrid has been a part of Doctor Who since the Troughton era (with the recorder, the childish words here and there, and the 500 year diary). What’s midlife for a Time Lord?
Id argue it's been there since Hartnell but it really was made explicit with Troughton. Joanna says this to Hartnell in the Crusade that always sticks out to me "There's something new in you, yet something older than the sky itself"
I think the old WAC would’ve managed to hold on today rather than splintering into the MWC and others. Large conferences are no longer seen as untenable, and having a large geographic footprint is now encouraged rather than discouraged.
There's just one episode of doctor who on 4k, from all the way back in 2018. Despite the last 6 episodes now being in 4k no word of further 4k releases
The Ultima games came with so much cool swag. I remember Ultima IV came with a cloth map, a spellbook, an "adventurer's guide" written like a D&D manual that explained the various character classes and monsters, a quick reference card with all the keyboard commands, and a metal ankh!
My mentor and family friend once said to congress that the Mythical Man Month "could be regarded as the Bible of information technology because it is universally known, often quotes, occasionally read, and rarely heeded". Every day I see this become truer. Everyone can quote "adding people to a late project makes it later" but so few companies/leaders actually have read it, much less heed it.
I know others have answered, but this woman was awesome on many levels, and universally loved up until around 2000 when politics went Uber divided. She set the stage for so many women's rights in this country (ironically by initially fighting a court case for a man's right to be a primary caregiver).
And even if she didn't agree politically with all of her colleagues, they seem to have gotten along very well. She maintained a very close friendship with justice Scalia even if in court they vehemently disagreed. Tons of respect from me for that.

Definitely true that we get the temple… what do they show for BYU? Y mountain, and…?
Choccy milk
Dude going to the creamery and an adult man turning down ice cream and instead getting chocolate milk felt very BYU.
It 100% is 😂
I thought this said Fremen at first and I was wondering when there was a Dune - Half Life crossover.
One thing Bungie always killed at was skyboxes. Every game they did in the series kills it in that department.
I always leave a cartridge in mine. Have done so for about a decade now. Zero issues.

Tetris attack slaps
Top three Inception Interstellar Dunkirk
Even if they recognized it, you’d constantly hear complaints 40 years later about how it wasn’t legitimate because of reasons.
YUPPPP
Leeloo Dallas Multi-Transfer
The treasure of the sierra madre
Portal Companion Collection, runs it better than the MacBook I used in high school to play the games, lol
Came here to say this. This was an excellent and unexpected port. I'd love to see HL2+ Episodes on switch.
Absolute day 1 buy for like 3 million people. I have no idea how they haven't already.
Valve just seems to do whatever they want, even if they leave millions on the table lol
I've been waiting to get a VR headset. Once I do I'll Alyx is the first game I am playing.

There’s a good case for it starting in Season 2; The Romans also comes to mind.
For sure. It definitely starts to be sprinkled in there that he is somehow both young and old.
For me, it was NBA Hangtime
I've only ever played the SNES Hangitme port... I'll have to try this one sometime!
It's a shame because Six seems super keen. Their latest audio has 4 different 6s
The Quin Dilemma is an absolutely perfect idea for six lol

The super WAC could have survived.
true, though I still think BYU and Utah would always try to leave
Probably yeah.

MASH entire series on at least Blu-ray, but preferably on 4k.
And cloth maps!
My Ultima games with cloth maps are my favorite part of my retro game collection.

Oh yeah they not only had the maps and the manuals but fun little trinkets as well. Definitely something I wish we got more of these days.
My Walmart binds only ever have DVDs 😐
March of the Eagles missing
Check out "The Mythical Man Month." There are ways to get around this that we've known since the age of mainframes.

In part because it explains that some people are better at their jobs than others.
Very true.
A&M every year or so

That would've been... excellent!
We DESPERATELY need David Banks back to voice the cyber leader one more time. C'mon RTD make it happen!
