Some really good observations here, the PS2 really did have one of the most distinctive aesthetics to it. :odysee_thinking:

Pro tip for retro gamers switching to Linux...
If you use Retro-Bit controllers, you'll likely run into incompatibilities. Luckily, there's a community-made driver package that fixes the issue.
I've listed the Github below, which includes installation instructions for most distros. If you're on Arch (or a distro based on it), there's also a relevant package in the AUR that works perfectly ("hid-retrobit-dkms").
Am I the only one who has really weird connections in my mind between a retro game and something completely unrelated (such as music)?
For example, I've always drawn connections between Edguy's 2001 album Mandrake, and the Cave of Wonders level in Aladdin on the Sega Genesis. I guess it's the color and the cave background?
That's not the only weird comparison/connection either. :sonicball:

The Half-Life Legacy mod is officially live on Steam!
It works on Linux with some tweaks, and is a pretty solid little mod! It really does feel like the game as I remember it when I was a kid. The 25th anniversary version of the game isn't far off from the original experience, but still, this mod strives to basically be like an improved version of the way the game was at launch.
Definitely worth a try!
A new KOTOR (Fate of the Old Republic) and a spiritual successor to Episode 1 Racer??
Star Wars fans ate good at the Game Awards tonight. I'm absolutely hyped for both of them, provided the devs deliver and don't 'modernize' them in the worst possible ways. I have high hopes, seeing how the new KOTOR is led by the director of the original KOTOR and Mass Effect trilogy.
Either way, very interested in seeing where this goes! :doge_cool: #thegameawards #StarWars #gaming #kotor
