I don’t know about you, readers, but this past week’s gone by in a bit of a blur. Did I volunteer to take WAWAPs for today, or was I forced at Ziff Davis canteen sporkpoint? I can’t even remember, but perhaps relaxing with some PC games – and/or reading about what you’re all playing – will help lift the brainfog.

Lost Nintendo game lives after 50 years as arcade collector uses ancient film reels and Wii-style tech to create "what might be the only playable Wild Gunman" machine in the world
Wild Gunman is a cornerstone of Nintendo history. Created by legendary Game Boy designer Gunpei Yokoi, this arcade machine used film reels to let you play out Wild West gun battles against live-action outlaws. The game would eventually be recreated as a traditional, pixel art light gun game for NES, and would be referenced in numerous future Nintendo products, but the original has effectively been lost to time. Until now, that is, as an arcade collector has just created the closest thing you’re going to find to the real thing.That collector is Callan Brown, who goes by 74XX Arcade Repair,…

Fallout 2 and New Vegas designer Chris Avellone has never hesitated to share how much he despises Amazon’s Fallout TV show adaptation, but he still has another 15 or 40 minutes of complaining to do about its second season, which he apparently sat down to watch despite hating it and wanting it to get hit by a car.In this way, Avellone was just like 83 million other viewers who tuned in for Fallout season 2, Amazon’s second-most-watched returning show: flies flocking to a molding chicken dinner. We weren’t especially amazed by season 2 either, describing in our Fallout season 2…
