Another excellent article! I remember reading about Soul Ride back in the day but between the custom controller and my lack of interest in snowboarding I never tried it out.

A pity they didn't make the gane data available somewhere when they stopped sales (or just put it up on itch). Someone clearly cares for the game though. At least enough to foot the bills for soulride.com that's still up but stuck in a 2003 time warp.

I can't seem to find any GoL review of Love Ribbon. I guess it's an upcoming article?

I play a lot of non-Steam games so I keep track of things in a spreadsheet (just to make sure I don't slack off!).

  • 83 games played.

  • 589.9 hours played (not counting demos, that's an additional 21.5 hours!)

  • Most time was spent with Stardew Valley (58.5h) closely followed by GT Legends and Grand Prix Legends

  • I play a lot of olds, so the average age of the game I play is 10 years.

  • Oldest game played was Alone in the Dark from 1992.

  • I bought 31 new games this year, for a total sum of ███.██(€

Quoting: RouhollahWould Wine-ge have wayland code after wine 9.0 releases? Is it based on wine or proton?
As far as I can tell Wine-GE is also based on Proton. The name is a bit of a misnomer.
