Megatextures

A video discussing Megatexture technology. Why we needed it, what it was supposed to do, and why it maybe didn't totally work.
Hardware Review

So what happens when a SOFTWARE engineer tries to review hardware? This. This happens.
Control

A wild game filled with wild ideas that features fun puzzles and mind-blowing environments. It has a great atmosphere, and one REALLY annoying flaw with its gameplay.
Stolen Pixels

A screencap comic that poked fun at videogames and the industry. The comic has ended, but there's plenty of archives for you to binge on.
The Best of 2013

My picks for what was important, awesome, or worth talking about in 2013.
Unrelated, but when was the phrase “But what do they eat?” coined?
I’ve only ever seen Shamus use it in a self-deprecating way, but I assume he said it unironically at least once.
I’m sure it came from a Mr. BTongue Youtube video originally, but I’m not finding it. Shamus linked his own post in the Details Vs. Drama post, which links to The Blistering Stupidity Of Fallout 3 Part 2.
It was from MrBtongue’s “TUN: The Shandification of Fallout” YouTube video. It was taken down by YouTube because it contained copyrighted material, but you should be able to find a version with said section edited out. Hope that helps!
My experience with most Card Trading Games: “I have no idea what this card is, what it does, or really even how to play the game…but it sure looks cool.”
Yeah, the Loading Ready Run people are heavily into Magic the Gathering and while I appreciate the flavour jokes or when they’re doing tabletop in that setting I just cannot follow the actual games (to be fair I usually have them on my second monitor so I don’t devote my full attention to the stream).
I actually somewhat dodged a bullet because I was getting into MtG at around high-school but lost interest when some people who were playing in my acquaintace circle started building “pro” decks. Basically I wanted to have a bunch of cool creatures and fun spells, they would have weird gimmick decks of the “makes you draw your entire library on third turn” kind and I found that not fun to play.
