Oh, that was always the standard for Game Maker to differentiate between sprites and objects, which typically had similar names. It’s a difficult thing to unlearn!
Thought to have been an ordinary falling star.

Skewer case, perhaps?
Drink some water!
…was that an ad?
Ooh, Oddworld is a good shout. I loved 100%-ing Abe’s Exoddus
Lego Star Wars TCS took a LOT of backtracking… but I did have fun with it. Think it took me about 40 hours by the end?
You can 100% the first three Spyro games in about 9-12 hours each. The first one can be done without any backtracking, even, since you have the same move set throughout.
I believe modern games take 100% runs way too far. I enjoyed 100%-ing the 3D Mario games… and then I got to Odyssey, and it was such a ridiculous slog that I couldn’t get much further than the standard ending.
Examples I’ve seen in the wild:
When was this, exactly?
I’m amazed there’s anyone out there who hasn’t heard of Jim Fucking Sterling, Son
I ran 7 on a Dell netbook for a few years, and it worked great (though, naturally, not as great as XP)
Because mice are a solved problem. New phones can ostensibly have new features, better cameras, better displays, etc. Similarly, new cards and CPUs can give you measurably better performance.
A new mouse is something you get when your old mouse is broken, and if that’s happening every year, then there’s a big problem.
Made by the same team as the Pro Pinball games, which is why it’s so darned good.
Off the top of my head:
The MD game you’re thinking of is likely to be Psycho Pinball.
I have to question in what world one would need “the latest mouse” every year. The only reason is if Logitech makes such a crap mouse that it starts to fall apart, thus necessitating a new one.
The only other avenue is that the mouse just gets more and more bloated with additional “features” year-on-year.
The principle isn’t the worst, but the implications are less than ideal
It doesn’t, but thousands of people all downloading 3-4GB from the same site will put more load on the site. Torrents avoid this issue by downloading little bits from lots of different peers
The CEO of a corporation should be the living embodiment of that corp. Kind of like Subway in Community
XCOM 2 Legacy Soundtrack. Some darned good beats on there.
A lot of over-designed armour and equipment, too. Especially in multiplayer.
2008 called, it wants its retorts back
