Atari VCS 5th Year Anniversary: Is this dead yet?!

The Atari VCS is the console equivalent of that friend who shows up to a party wearing vintage clothes—not as a costume, but because they never stopped.

It looks like the original Atari 2600 went to a spa, got Botox, and said, “I’m ready for my comeback tour.” Under the hood, it’s basically a tiny PC pretending to be a game console, like a golden retriever wearing a lab coat insisting it’s a doctor. Sure, it can play modern indie games… but it would rather talk to you about how great Missile Command was.

Its controllers are a fun mix too: one is a modern gamepad, the other is the classic joystick—perfect for players who want nostalgia and for parents who want to tell their kids, “Back in my day, THIS was all we had, and we LIKED it.”

Using the VCS feels a bit like discovering your grandpa is on TikTok: unexpected, endearing, slightly confusing, and somehow charming enough that you just go with it.

Terminator 2D NO FATE (REVIEW) PS5/Xbox/PC

My review of the new Terminator 2D No FATE game based on the classic 1991 movie. This is the 2D retro styled run ‘n’ gun game that Bitmap Bureau wishes would have come out back in the day.

Terminator 2 has the vibe of a chrome-plated summer thunderstorm that decided to develop a personality. Its appeal begins with the T-800, who evolves from “murderous toaster with legs” to “surly robo-dad trying very hard to understand why humans cry instead of just rebooting.” The movie gives you molten-metal anxiety, Harley-revving bravado, and the warm glow of knowing your savior is a grumpy machine whose negotiation skills rely on sunglasses and a shotgun the size of a rolled-up mattress.

Then there’s the T-1000, a shape-shifting puddle of weaponized mercury who glides around like your reflection decided it was tired of your life choices and took over. Watching this villain chase a teenager through malls, freeways, and steel mills is half action spectacle, half existential question: if liquid metal can run faster than a truck, what chance do your errands have? The whole film becomes a kinetic sermon on destiny, family, and the importance of not inventing killer robots before lunch, wrapped in an action feast that still hums like a neon jukebox on the edge of the apocalypse.

The Nilu V-12 Supercar from designer behind the Bugatti and Koenigsegg

Sasha Selipanov is the kind of car designer who looks at a blank sheet of paper and says, “What if this… scared people just a little?”

He’s basically the mad scientist of automotive styling: part artist, part engineer, part guy who definitely owns at least one pair of sunglasses too cool for normal daylight. This is the man who helped shape cars like the Bugatti Chiron and Lamborghini Huracán—vehicles that look less like they’re meant to be driven and more like they should burst out of containment in a sci-fi movie.

Selipanov designs cars the way action movies design explosions: bigger, bolder, and ideally with more carbon fiber. His aesthetic could be summarized as “what if aggression had wings?” He doesn’t draw curves; he draws aerodynamic threats.

If cars had personalities, the ones he designs would stare you down in a parking lot and say, “Nice sedan, nerd.”

In short, Sasha Selipanov is the Da Vinci of “I dare you to drive this faster than you should.”

Doug DeMuro Breaks Down His $40M Business CarsAndBids.com

Doug DeMuro is the kind of guy who reviews a car by spending 12 minutes explaining the cupholders, 6 minutes admiring the hazard-light button, and only then casually mentioning, “Oh yeah, it also has an engine, I guess.”
Doug DeMuro is the kind of guy who’d buy a supercar just to show you the quirk where the glovebox politely curtsies when it opens.
Doug DeMuro is the kind of guy who gets more excited about a weirdly shaped key fob than most people do about their own children.
Doug DeMuro is the kind of guy who describes a 0–60 launch as “adequate,” but loses his mind when he discovers a hidden storage cubby that can fit exactly one granola bar.
Doug DeMuro is the kind of guy who’s turned “quirks and features” into a lifestyle—one storage hook, tiny sun visor, and bizarre parking brake at a time.

10 Most Underrated Movie Trilogies of All Time

Flick Connection – brings us their Top 10 Most Underrated Movie Trilogies of All Time. Good list. Here’s a few of mine:
The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo Millennium Trilogy (Swedish films)
Gritty, grounded, and far better than most people remember. Noomi Rapace owns these movies, and the Scandinavian tone gives them a unique edge.
The Cloverfield Trilogy (Cloverfield / 10 Cloverfield Lane / The Cloverfield Paradox)
A bizarre, accidental trilogy—but that’s what makes it so fun. Each entry is a totally different genre experiment that somehow fits under one weird, chaotic umbrella.
The Re-Animator Trilogy
Campy, gory, and hilarious. If you like ’80s horror with chaotic scientist energy, these are gold.

JRPGLife – FINALLY Finding the last Nintendo 3DS Game

The Nintendo 3DS is the handheld that proudly said, “Why stop at one screen when you can have two—and why stop at flat reality when you can make everyone’s eyes cross just a little bit?”

It’s the only system where you can play Mario in 3D, turn the 3D off because your vision is now legally classified as “uncertain,” and then still feel like a wizard because the top screen is basically a tiny hologram without needing those movie-theater glasses that smell like popcorn sadness.

The 3DS also came with a camera that took photos in 3D—perfect for capturing memories you would look at once and go, “Neat,” before never opening that app again. And let’s not forget StreetPass, the magical feature that convinced you to carry the console around like a Tamagotchi, hoping—praying—you’d meet another human being with their 3DS on. When you finally did, it felt like spotting Bigfoot, except Bigfoot was wearing a Mario hat.

In short: the 3DS is a portable nostalgia machine, equal parts innovative and “why does this have a pedometer?”—and we love it for every weird little choice it made.
