  • Might’ve just been the glass slipper my hands needed then. Felt like a peak optimization of the sony layout, least in my mitts.

    I know several folks who prefer the offset Xbox style, but I always appreciated the more symmetrical design of PlayStation. Thumbs were same height on controller for FPS or fighting genres, which I did a bunch of back then. Didn’t mind offset thumbs for other games like God of War. I think the designer in me also appreciated sony’s cleaner aesthetic as well.



  • Fully, a MASSIVE amount of what I’m into now came from Tony Hawk games and [adult swim] and the trajectory that put me on. [adult swim] was for sure the MTV of my generation.

    By the time I was watching MTV, it was still some TRL and music vids, but also a big dose of Room Raiders, etc… And it eventually fell out of fashion. [AS] definitely had their finger on the pulse of what the cool cats were to tho. Such a hip scene. I still vividly recall a bump for Boondocks featuring Flying Lotus’ song Massage Situation that felt mind blowing.

    Weird to think where I’d be without either.



  • Yo, heard. Reminds me of something familiar on my end as well. Nice when there’s a lil bit of wiggle room in a system like that. Gotta have a functional team though that can appreciate that work hard play hard work-life balance thing.

    Relatively recently got a decentish gig after only working “good bad jobs.” While the corporate culture shock is still abrasive at times, nice having some actual benefits and shit – other than being able to call in “sick” to fuck off or hang with the boyes without care or consequence. Have a decent stack of mandatory personal/sick days that renew annually.

    I can already tell I’m gonna be getting mighty ill around the holiday season, something definitely brewing.
