  • The Genesis game is an open world RPG. On the streets of Seattle, the gun fights are real-time and difficult. It’s really easy to die, and the odd pace of combat was difficult for me to pick up. You do jobs for fixers to earn money and move the plot along. The story is decent, but I don’t remember much about the characters. For me, all the fun was in the hacking - real-time, where your abilities are on cooldowns. Steal data, sell data, buy better hardware/software, hack servers with more ice, repeat. Oh, and the art’s neat. I only rented the SNES game, and I don’t remember nearly as much about that. I think it’s more of a traditional RPG, with more focus on puzzle solving and story. Everyone says the SNES story/characters are better. No hacking game, though, or not much of one.










  • The world’s richest men are concentrating control over the pipes through which all of this is running, all of our information.

    I’m afraid we’re in/nearing the endgame of this tug of war, and we don’t control the physical infrastructure. Without an ISP that isn’t in bed with the government/corporatocracy, I’m not sure how we even keep freedom of speech alive long-term.
