Easter's coming... so I was wondering what some of the best "Easter eggs" are in games (or other things in life)... even though I don't think these are related much to Easter at all (where'd the name come from?)

Got any interesting ones to mention or discuss, or tips on crafting some?

Minecraft creator Markus "Notch" Persson says he's hoping to start work on a new game that would serve as a "spiritual successor" to the block-based sandbox game he first created in 2009.

Shogi (将棋 shōgi?) (/ˈʃoʊɡiː/, Japanese: [ɕo̞ːɡi] or [ɕo̞ːŋi]), also known as Japanese chess or the Generals' Game, is a two-player strategy board game in the same family as Western (international) chess, chaturanga, makruk, shatranj and xiangqi, and is the most popular of a family of chess variants native to Japan.

So there's a singular book on this topic I've seen mentioned elsewhere

but it's an independent idea that's popped in to my head related to the other post about daydreaming (and I haven't read the book)

about "games" or playful things you can do in your head; it's interesting to me the ways in which your head cannot duplicate games, like how video games might keep score automatically (I think I would struggle to remember all kinds of scores and points)

Essentially the book referenced elsewhere sounds like they give you a topic and you kind of make up a story from it in your head; like a solo roleplaying game?

I find my "mindgames" are more of a "freestyle" without necessarily a narrative: [take the random science] name "blue dwarf" [which] might remind me of "green leprechauns" which then makes me think of "green dwarves" (which are nonexistent stars I think, no "green dwarf" stars exist?). This isn't necessarily the best example, but my "mind wandering" I often try to direct toward

Note that I may not agree with the content of various games, but there are a lot of potential games to review

I've been playing forza 3 and resident evil 2 remake

It'll set in asia, probably china. Instead of weather changes like in forza 4 it could have biomes which would be even better, the weather system was bit controversial since driving during winter was slippery which would make racing difficult. I think Japan would've been better option but china is cool too.

physical media is bad for climate change! (or something like that lol)

This game was creepy. Did anyone ever play it?

Scared me lol
