My controller arrived today. Happy Birthday to me!

I've got a whole library of controller games I've been sitting on waiting for this to arrive. Not to mention GTA VI next year.

Steam dopamine shopping site.

Pretend to buy the game you'll never actually play instead of losing $$ on it.

That's for losers.

I'm building a large backlog that my cyborg self will be able to play for decades to come.

Ever read the The Murderbot Diaries? Cyborg basically entertains itself watching human media in the background all the time.

China rules that a gamer's digital library is property and can be left like inheritance.

Not really a Steam discussion, but it applies obviously.

There are differences in laws there and elsewhere, in terms of, what is property versus licensing and so on, but it is a step in the right direction.
