Hello, Shacknews. This sure is a week that happened. Of all the weeks, this was one of them. Let's end it with a fresh round of news, memes, and entertainment. This is the Friday edition of Evening Reading.

And, because it's the weekend, go find yourself something to play!

Did Sephiroth drive this?

Welcome to the world's longest and weirdest car commercial.

Sephiroth did not, in fact, drive this, but Zack and Aerith did.

And speaking of Final Fantasy 7...

The Vampire Survivors team at Poncle also love them some Final Fantasy 7, so they remade the original teaser trailer using their own game engine. Check it out!

Watch for sandworms

LEGO Dune is coming soon.

Nothing but the Hotfix

Enjoy these RPG runs from the runners of Unapologetically Black and Fast.

Masahiro Sakurai started a YouTube channel! Let's learn from his decades of experience together by looking at one of his latest videos. This week, Sakurai walks us through debug modes and their usage in game development.

This week in Chucknews

No idea why Charles Barkley would look at the dumpster fire that is social media in 2024 and decide just now, "Ok, I want in," but here we are.

IT'S STILL REAL TO ME, DAMMIT!

The great Sting calls it a career this Sunday. Watch him come down from the rafters one last time on this week's AEW Dynamite.

Tonight in video game music

Lacey Johnson welcomes you to Final Fantasy 7.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
