Mass Effect 1-3 coming out in the span of five years is so crazy. Is there a clearer example of how fucked development cycles have gotten than looking at BioWare’s output in the aughts?

Yesterday's news about Jacob Geller broke my heart, so much that I couldn't stop dwelling on it all day. In an effort to make sense of this horrific news and my admittedly complicated feelings about it, here is my article on the Jacob Geller situation: epiloguegaming.com/what-do-we-d...

well I definitely won't be taking any private EA previews at embassies

The search for a new food reviewer begins after some community folks found this exchange between Joe Is Hungry and Alex fucking Jones back in January over ICE brutality.

Hey, so, I was so angry today that, for once, I blogged it instead of posting about it. Games media, especially mainstream games media, cannot keep abdicating responsibility in how it talks about these things an-evening-at-the-inn.ghost.io/video-game-s...

if you do not think this is a concerted effort to drive out the middle and lower class from this artform then i do not know what to tell you. drives the whole thing upmarket in an effort to lock people deeper and deeper into a walled garden

Personally, if I were one of the Third Way ghouls who helped to hollow out labor, vilify the poor (especially when they’re black), and lay the ground work for furthering private profit over public good, I would shut the fuck up when a new era of young politicians attempted to revive my party.

Please. One more time.

i love the yakuza series but i dunno man maybe this is a “thanks for the memories, see ya” situation for me

There’s been a lot of talk in this race about what makes a "real man." A man does what’s right when no one is watching. He upholds his commitments to his family and neighbors. He doesn’t lie, cheat, & steal his way through life. Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.

listen to shelved by genre

You can't really engage with this too much on a public platform I don't think, but I do agree that patience seems to be running out for us and I'd argue it might've run out several years ago at this point.

buu saga haters are so wrong

WATCH — @jamestalarico.bsky.social : “Every dollar we spend bombing people in the Middle East is one we’re not spending here at home. We’re always told we don’t have enough money for schools or healthcare or for veterans, but there’s always enough to bomb people on the other side of the world.”

Ossoff: We were told that MAGA was for working-class Americans. But this is a government of, by, and for the ultra-rich. It’s the wealthiest Cabinet ever. This is the Epstein class. They are the elites they pretend to hate.

"Everything we do is legal, ethical, and moral." Don't believe ICE and their lies, please help share what's happening in Minneapolis. youtu.be/W1dyNcRGRXY

This is the most incorrect thing that Kotaku has ever written. Grape is the BEST flavor of Ghost!!!!!

someone told me to read up on reconstruction

Wake up. Make breakfast. Do email. Watch a murder. Go to a party for a 5 year old. Laugh with my daughter. See a different angle of that murder. Hear govt officials slander the victim. Play Barbies with my kid. Feed her dinner. Tear up at that victim reading last honors to a vet. Put kid to bed. USA

As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.

ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

People are being executed in the street over a problem that straight up does not exist and both parties are complicit in the lie

Good morning! Fuck ice!

Danish parliamentarian Rasmus Jarlov speaking to MS NOW on Stephen Miller comments regarding Greenland: "I hope he’s kept away from young women, because that’s the mentality of a rapist. You can’t defend yourself, so I’m going to take you. That’s basically what he’s saying."

The only reason you think arguing with Megyn Kelly is more productive than arguing with me is that the two times you've argued with me you've been embarrassed.

i don’t want to live in a world where agents of the state can murder anyone they like as long as they claim they felt threatened after the fact and i don’t want to share a world with anyone who does

what happened here is that a bunch of masked domestic abusers with guns got out of a car, swarmed a woman for no reason, shouted contradictory commands at her, and shot her dead because they felt like it, and anyone who can’t see that has darkness where their soul should be

Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter is an incredible revival, and a great reason to start your journey through this long-running RPG series. Here's why you should play it: gameinformer.com/2025/12/29/w...

Took some time to unpack a few thoughts on Expedition 33. Watching what I thought was a "pretty good" game get transformed into A Cultural Object has been disheartening. So I have some thoughts on glitz, glamour, and respectability... transgamerthoughts.com/post/8027631...
