Evening Reading - December 3, 2024

It's nighttime in America, which means it's time for another edition of Evening Reading.

by · Shacknews

Welcome, Shackers, to the end of another Tuesday, the first in December. We’re a handful of days away from bringing a fine year of gaming to a close, but as close as we are, there’s still work to be done. We’re crafting our final strokes this year and we can’t wait to share what we have in store with you before wishing you a happy holiday. For now, it’s time to shut another fine down of posting down with another Evening Reading. Enjoy.

In case you missed it at Shacknews…

And now… More stuff from The Internet

Tryin’ new Terry things

JohnnyChugs on Cortex

My favorite blonde brawler got some buffs in the latest Street Fighter 6 patch, so I’m trying out some new low-cost sauce.

Bill is in a winter wonderland

x-Rumpo-x on Cortex

The Long Dark continues to be one of the best survival games around and then some.

I don’t think you can post DS apps on BlueSky, but it sure would be a way to set itself apart.

Bringing your Palico pals to life

This man is your Palico. I wish I was able to finish the Osaka/Monster Hunter Vlog in time but this was the mocap stuff we saw was so impressive.

I can only imagine it’s tough work to stand in Palico posture and do all their cutesy little moves ad nauseum.

Winners stay winning

Aaaa! Was surprised to see myself on the All-Star Alumni list on the 2025 Forbes 30 Under 30 with a little @outersloth.com highlight! 🙇🏻‍♀️Congrats to all who made the list. ❤️

Victoria Tran deserves the flowers for what Innersloth has done. And she’s in good company with SonicFox

ICBS: Inter-Continental Ballistic Santa

Not only is he traveling at ridiculous speeds, but he’s quite a projectile what with his belly like a bowl full of jelly.
