That’s roughly my understanding though it’s been years since I’ve looked at them. Steam as well.
It’s certainly possible to use these but the store owners have an incentive to make it look like products people buy are stable, and games being removed for rights issues always seem to let the right to redownload take priority. Again, though, I could see publishers muscle around this like the one I can think of.
The Capcom Blog post linked in the tweet makes it pretty clear that it should be able to be downloaded from here on, as long as you buy it before it gets delisted.
I have no idea why they’d word the tweet like that and cause panic.
bring helix back to life 
If you’re talking about Brough’s iOS game Helix, he did, like 6 months ago! I was pumped.
I’m still waiting for ZiGGURAT but we all know that’s not gonna happen.
I had no idea hell yeah
Tim’s review is up.

So apparently the very latest build of bsnes now supports overclocking. Which is something some SNES emulators can actually do, but somehow, this works without making various things in the game break. So now you can play Starfox like this.
the dream
I sure wish things like this and HD Mode 7 were exposed in bsnes’s libretro core!
ope, it looks this is enabled in the bsnes-mercury core:
- SuperFX overclock is now available (off by default, of course); if enabled, it makes Star Fox look quite a lot smoother.
This game has cats. Cats are great.
And toilets. Sounds like a ZZT game.
Even though this is about cops, I’m so in.
whaaaaaaat that’s so soon!!! woah!!!
I only recently learnt that this game has character customisation. Missed that from e3 (it’s the first thing they go through in the video):
not directed at you but has everyone who feels obliged to disclaim their interest in cop media never watched and enjoyed like lethal weapon or NCIS
like I would think that one’s love of procedurals is not at all entailed by one’s awareness of racial bias in policing but idk
i used to love watching all those shows when i was a lot younger, but i find it pretty hard to enjoy them with the knowledge that they are complete fabrications in every conceivable way.
Why not watch classic procedurals about non-cops like perry mason or rockford files?
Makes tolerating TV time with grandpas easier.
Yeah, I have a similar nag watching Silence of the Lambs or other ‘serial killers have super-powers’ media as I do watching heyday '80s buddy cop movies
it’s annoying to watch pretend cops constantly pointing guns at somebody and yelling shit like “don’t you do it!!” and they always somehow talk them down instead of just immediately emptying two magazines into them like real life. and also pretend like they can ever get in trouble for anything ever. and there’s the csi effect and 24’s plainly obvious damage on the collective unconcious so people clearly buy into this shit and write off actual stories about how cops really are as one-off bad apples and you can’t help but think of all this as you watch this dumb shit.
isn’t it interesting though how stories set in early 1900s, even modern made ones, always depict cops as more brutish and fascist like. just thugs looking for immigrants or black people to frame or hobo skulls to cave in for fun. The people making these things probably just think “the past was a more primitive time” (but this is of course a part of the liberal myth that behavior wise we’re evolving along some progressive line and not just the same as we’ve always been). it’s actually because they’re depicting a pre-movie time period. there is no cop fiction construct of cops yet, only the reality of what cops are, undiluted by the propaganda to come.
Pertinent to this convo and also video games.
