Hi, I'm Anthony! I love and talk about a lot of different things like video games, movies, TV, tech, theme parks, food, being a dad, and cats. If you want to hear random musings on any/all of those topics then you've come to the right place!

In my mind, The Game Awards faced a tough situation. Either: A) GTA 6 is eligible but it releases right around the cutoff B) It is eligible for 2027 but its success overshadows the 2026 show

I think I’m almost done but so far Hellraiser Revival is pretty good! It feels like The Darkness or Prey. They really go for it with the gore and the nudity.

I suck at fighting games but this is the coolest flipping thing I've ever seen

I'm cautiously optimistic about this Destiny news. It seems like "new" content is a far way off and is not a given. I'll probably pop on for some nostalgia with the Red War and whatnot, but I wouldn't go so far as to say "we're back" or "we won" yet

Another #PokemonWorlds in the books. This one had a lot more to do, from PokemonXP to Worlds Night at Oracle Park. It’s such a fun event but what I enjoy most are the people. The people who support Pokemon and the ones who cover it are just the best.

If you were at Pokemon XP/Worlds and got one of the three Kanto Megas you only get a quick research that gives you candy. BUT if you pick a different starter than your original pick and buy the deluxe pass you get 5,000 energy. So technically two Megas.

Mortal Shell 2 check in! Think I'm going to put it on pause until some QOL updates can hit. Seems like the game needs a little bit extra to smooth out some rough edges. I'm only willing to do it because I have enjoyed it so much and I don't want some fixable issues to drag it down.

It me talking about The Duskbloods again!

Look, I’m a simple man. If I see butts or boobs on the timeline I’m going to quickly scroll past them because now the whole airplane row behind me thinks I’m a pervert

Earlier this month I went to From Software’s office in Tokyo to play eight hours of The Duskbloods and interview Hidetaka Miyazaki. A surreal experience, and one I will be eternally grateful for. Here’s all of GameSpot’s coverage.
