@coolboymew @takao @shpuld I heard most of the software on that thing were just multimedia centers that you would find on the CD-i and the only actual games were Marathon and some Power Rangers game. But given that it is really just a consolized Mac, I'm surprised there isn't an active homebrew scene on it.

@coolboymew @takao @shpuld Apparently, there is a port of Marathon, but you are better off playing Aleph One.

@dielan @ChristiJunior @TheMadPirate @redneonglow@neckbeard.xyz @Moon @why I still think that infamously bad games should be remembered to prevent them from happening again. Games like Superman 64, Sonic 06, Bubsy 3D, the Zelda CD-i games are remembered for a reason.

@Rosamonde @redneonglow@neckbeard.xyz That whole "traitors" list only caused a streisand effect as I kept seeing people wanting to be on that list and people using that list to support those companies who virtual signaled during the George Floyd riots.

@Moon @ChristiJunior @TheMadPirate @redneonglow@neckbeard.xyz @why Neither. It isn't even a game. It's just slightly more interactive than those FMV interactive stories from the 90s.

@why @ChristiJunior @TheMadPirate @redneonglow@neckbeard.xyz @Moon I remember hearing that the developers were required to make the female characters more masculine to "satisfy" the trans audience.

>I now go by personal interest, gameplay footage and user reviews.
Too bad game developers/publishers are trying to manipulate those as well through bot accounts, false DMCAs, etc. Hell, when TLoU2 leaks happened, Sony DMCA'd a relatively obscure imageboard that I frequented.

@thatbrickster @comradeagle Well given that you can install alternative OSes on Android phones I assume that it is possible to do so on Smart-TVs. Otherwise, your best bet is to wait for some company like Purism to make an open-source Smart-TV that let's you install any compatible OS.

@thatbrickster @comradeagle Ubuntu used to have a variant for Smart-TVs and home theater PCs called Mythbuntu. There is also LinuxMCE which is designed for home-theater PCs, but there is probably a way to get it working on Smart TVs.

@comradeagle @thatbrickster Well, it's already a standard. It is near impossible to find a dumb TV these days unless you get it used. You are better off getting a projector.
