It’s broadcast seasons vs how many purchases (“episode orders”) were made. Fox aired 5 but paid for 4 (held back some episodes), then the movies, Comedy Central aired across 4 seasons but made 2 episode orders, and now Hulu split their first order across 2 aired seasons.

Aired: 5 Fox, 1 movies, 4 CC, 2 Hulu -> season 12.

Orders: 4 Fox, 1 movies, 2 CC, 1 Hulu -> Season 8.

(Hulu made a second episode order already, but since that wouldn’t start until at least next year I didn’t count it. Assuming it’s split again, it’ll be seasons 13+14 or 9.)

Odo ,

Cool. Reminds me of kkrieger from…20 years ago? Where’d that time go.

Odo ,

Scam. Note the low user score too, and user reviews saying how bad the app is. The official site is Deltarune.com. if it’s not listed there (which this isn’t), don’t trust it.

“I would not like to think that a person would tell someone he has a plethora, and find out that that person has no idea what it means to have a plethora.”

Odo ,

I have that exact video paused right now. So detailed and fascinating. I love that he added moments of speedrunners hitting many of them.

Odo ,

Pong is over 50. For that matter, Tennis for Two is coming up on 70.

Odo ,

201 days left according to the BellRiots.com countdown, so we have that to look forward to.

Odo ,

Sorry, but Acclaim really was that wild for a bit there. They also had a promotion where you’d get a free copy of one of the Turok games if you named a newborn child after him. For what it’s worth, I don’t think anyone took them up on either offer, but it certainly brought in the publicity.

Odo ,

Pac-Man on the Atari 2600. I understand the complaints about that port, but I’ll always have a soft spot for it for getting me into the hobby way back when.

Seems it’s a promo for season 2 of TOS and the show’s new timeslot on Fridays. The lettering is a nod to Laugh-In, and the whole timeslot shuffle is a long story.

Also I see Google has completely given up on quotation marks around phrases. So that’s fun.

Jon Stewart Returns to ‘Daily Show’ as Monday Host, Executive Producer (variety.com)

After scuttling a months-long search for a new host, the Paramount Global network said it had enlisted Jon Stewart, who presided over the late-night mainstay’s most popular era, to serve as its host on Monday nights throughout the 2024 election cycle and to run the program. He is expected to oversee the program through 2025....

Odo ,

You reminded me to go back and find the Waco, TX promo. So much nostalgia.

Odo ,

Glad I’m not the only one. It looked like an extra forearm got jammed into the steering wheel. I found a clearer version but still can’t tell what’s behind the air freshener.

Odo ,

Didn’t the books reveal it was “what is 6x9”, and the calculation getting thrown off when humans arrived on Earth?

Star Trek DS9: Crossroads of Time on Super Nintendo.

My favorite memory of it was from the first day: a friend telling me I couldn’t use the same phaser twice against Borg drones. I was confident they wouldn’t put a detail like like that in a game. Not two seconds later, the very next drone blocked my phaser. (Clearly one of Trek’s ongoing lessons in the arrogance of man. Ahem.)

Seems silly looking back to think game devs wouldn’t care as much (or more!) as I did about Star Trek to add in ideas like that.

Odo ,

I’m confused why Kotaku mentioning next gen in the title when Rockstar only commented on current generation PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.

Because they’re still referring to PS5 and XSX as “next gen”, which is ridiculous this far into a generation. I’m glad even their own commenters are calling that out.

Odo ,

It did in Lower Decks. Yet another reason to love that show.

Odo ,

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew. From the little-known “stealth tactics” micro-genre. It really felt like the culmination of what the studio learned from their previous few games. It took some familiar abilities from all the way back to the original Desperados 20 years ago, then added several brand new ones that almost feel OP and make each character unique. Plus if you have a checklist-oriented brain, there are so many optional objectives encouraging you to replay missions in different ways.

I understand some fans weren’t huge on the reuse of levels, but the missions either use different parts of them or have you approach familiar guard setups from completely different directions, keeping them feeling fresh (at least to me).

It’s a real shame developer Mimimi is closing down, though I’m glad they get to wind down gradually and on their own terms. I’m so used to companies trying a new project, running out of money, and closing suddenly.

Odo ,

I more meant the narrow intersection of 2 larger genres that rarely cross over, particularly these days.

Though having said that, I do feel like the only person still talking about them anymore. It’s so rare to see them brought up in casual conversations outside their dedicated Steam forums.

Odo ,

Wait, is that an Eternal Darkness reference?

Odo ,

I was lucky enough to have the manual for ET lying around. It helps greatly in explaining the game’s bizarre logic (and how to escape the infamous pits). It’s not much weirder than most 2600 games once you read it, provided somebody didn’t throw it out thinking it was useless.

Odo ,

The new order will bring the show to Seasons 13 and 14 (or 10 and 11 depending on how you break it down).

I’ve heard this year’s season called either 8 or 11, but never 9 or 12. I wonder how this article was counting them.

Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Lower Decks | 4x09 "The Inner Fight"

LoglineWho knows? They never released one. Edit: They finally released one - how novel to release the actual episode first! Captain Freeman assigns the Lower Deckers an overly safe mission to try and keep a self-destructive Mariner out of danger....

Odo ,

The intel was “someone’s targeting ex-Starfleet officers”. The dialogue then suggests Starfleet command put together the list of former officers. They didn’t necessarily pull those names from the intel.

Odo ,

Yes, 2023 taxes being filed in the “2024 filing season” as the IRS calls it.

Now streaming.

Odo ,

I’m so happy someone other than me remembers Radar Mission. I too still get the music stuck in my head from time to time.

Odo ,

Spacewave? It tends to be more slow paced and synth-heavy, and really evokes the feeling of giant planets and stars. For example: www.youtube.com/watch?v=2RlxClUifEw&t=1800 (at the 30 minute mark, though the very first song works too)

Odo ,

I’m relieved to know I’m not the only one who got that mixed up. I had to rewatch the bridge scene to understand they were tracking the ship, and not some psychic outbreak of heightened emotions.

Also, I just now looked ahead. Is the next title really a Garth Marenghi reference? Because that’s amazing.

Odo ,

Records are spotty, but indicate it results from a lack of “updog”.

Odo ,

That it’s not immediately blasting every ship it comes near. It was either oblivious to the Orions’ presence or ignoring them outright, until they were foolish enough to threaten it.

Odo ,

I still haven’t paid to remove ads, and no Adguard, yet I’ve never had a single ad show up. I wonder if there’s a bug.

Study: Streamers Now Wasting Record Amounts of Time Finding Something to Watch

Content discovery challenges are forcing the average consumer to spend 10.5 minutes finding something to watch each time they access their streaming services according to Nielsen

Combining those, it sounds to me like their usage of “streamers” is referring to the viewers. If they meant the services, it’d read more like “Streamers now wasting record amounts of people’s time”.

Odo ,

A piece of internet history. So glad it’s been preserved.

Odo ,

Most of the Star Trek shows. Bring back Prodigy, Paramount.

Odo ,

Bethesda put out a long video around Summer Game Fest that spent 45 minutes showing most of the gameplay systems in the game. It was honestly a bit overwhelming.

Reviewers are quiet because the NDA is still active. It should end sometime today (Aug 31).

Odo OP ,

It’s a sad trend watching the people who defined your childhood pass away.

Odo ,

Even with the low framerate it’s still highly inefficient and comes to 23MB. This is why you don’t use gif for video.

Odo ,

Wow. I’m surprised at the dislike for the old detailed icon. Maybe it’s being old enough to remember black and white icons, but I miss the increasing amount of colors that icons had for a while there. I hate the trend toward monocolor silhouettes.
