dreamt that i was taking a creative writing class and the professor was having us read our stories aloud. i looked over what i’d written and i was shocked to see that it was a story where sonic explains semiotics to tails and knuckles before they all have explicit sex. the rest of the dream was the professor threatening to flunk me if i didn’t read it for the class and me digging in my heels and refusing to because i was terrified i’d get tried by an academic council for reading a pornographic story in class

had a dream that I had tons of FB notifications and I logged in just to see a bunch of people saying "have you seen this?"

when I clicked through it was a trailer for a new game called Yakuza Gaijin: Boston. the protagonist looked EXACTLY like me and had my first name, but clearly spoke Japanese in kiryu's voice. the trailer had this kickass music that's still stuck in my head and it flashed between different scenes.

the real estate game rival was legendary boston slumlord, Anwar (he is a real person) and a lot of the flashes of substory had some of my favorite Boston public transit people you see all the time, like Orange Line Strongbad, Mr Jinglecoins, and the Homeless Riddler (all are pretty self-explanatory) there was clearly a mission where you got to smash keytar bear in the face with his own instrument (he wears a bear suit and plays the keytar in train stations). there was a boss in the museum of science lightning cage that looked awesome.

some of the mini games I could see included a Simpsons Arcade Game cabinet, a full Magic card game where you could draft in my favorite Cambridge game store, candlepin bowling, ice skating dance battles, and skeeball.

at the end of the trailer were the words every gamer dreams of seeing: AVAILABLE NOW. the protagonist who looked just like me smiled and winked at the screen.

I went to download the game, of course, extremely hype to play a Yakuza game starring me but when I stood up, my head started hurting all of a sudden. I heard a deep, anime villain laugh and the trailer music started back up, and my head got worse. I looked in my tv and saw my reflection, and I had a really tiny baby head. it was still shrinking and the laugh got louder. I went to scream and woke up hearing my youngest crying, then got up to get a bottle instead of playing an epic new Yakuza game.

Took a nap today and dreamed I was watching a switch direct. The presenter voice announced there was going to be a brand new keyboard peripheral for the switch which I took to mean a typing keyboard but then the camera went to a guy with frosted tips and little Morpheus sunglasses walking out in front of a crowd with a giant sheath on his back like a buster sword. He reached back and pulled free a huge full sized midi keyboard in the shape of the snes controller with its keys matching the colors

He put it down in front of him and shouted “Do you guys like final fantasy 4????” and the crowd cheered, and then for some reason he followed this by beginning to play a really cheap chip tune version of head like a hole by nine inch nails on the keyboard while jumping around and gyrating.

Last night I had a dream that Billy Mitchell somehow got his hands on the Metal Gear license and created Billy Mitchell's Metal Gear Solid 6: American World Championship Edition. He put out a smug press statement alongside the release saying that if anyone could beat his impossibly high score, he would award them with $10,000 in cash.

The game was sort of a reskin of Metal Gear Solid except Snake was wearing an american flag tie and his arm was frozen in a permanent thumbs-up which meant he couldn't use any two-handed weapons. All of Snake's voice lines were replaced by Billy saying things like "I am the undisputed champion" or "that documentary was bullshit" at random intervals. Any time Snake/Billy spoke nearby guards would be alerted.

The screen had a giant LCD scoreboard in the dead center, and the game would abruptly end after a 5-minute timer and tally up your score. You could earn points for doing things like running in a circle, eating rations at full health, setting off alerts, or shooting bullets into walls. Basically anything except playing the game effectively.

I played through the game and managed to beat Billy's high score by quite a bit accidentally by just messing around. I hit the built-in "submit score to YouCantBeatBillyMitchell.com" button and was all excited to hear back that I had won the money. A few minutes later I got an angrily-worded email full of typos directly from Billy accusing me of cheating and demanding that I play through again, and that I had to set up a camcorder and record myself on VHS this time to prove it.

I was about to reply with an indignant "you of all loving people should know better" email when I woke up

Had a dream I was showing a friend the X-Com remake from like 2012. I was telling them I was really good at it and it was turn based so you really had to think about each move and approach it carefully. The first mission that popped up was for the first terror mission you get. I was explaining to them that terror missions are really hard because you have to them fast and try kill all the aliens before civilians die. From the starting drop zone I could see some chrysalids but instead of looking normal they looked morel like purple pill bugs and were going around killing all the civilians. I managed to snipe one then was moving my team into place and saw some of the little grey guys. But then they stabbed and killed one of my soldiers and it wasn't even their move. I was desperately trying to explain to my friend the game was supposed to be turn based but the aliens kept running around and doing what they wanted even when it wasn't their turn and kept killing my guys even after using up all their actions. I was nearly crying trying to explain that they must have changed the game mechanics as it was supposed to be turn based not like this. I woke up with a headache. It was incredibly upsetting.
