Tape To Tape review: Hockey Game of the Year

Who's feeling ready to try the survival train in next week's launch of THE LONG DARK: IRON ROAD? 🚂❄️ Coming to Steam on Tuesday, October 27th. Exact launch timing to be shared on Monday! 🚂❄️ More info, including the full planned Roadmap here: www.thelongdark.com/iron-road/

Shacknews reviews have pros/cons at the end. In my past several NHL reviews I've made sure to throw Andrew Wilson in as a con, and I stand by that. And before you disagree, go back and listen to a few EA earnings calls when it was publicly traded.

This is outright one of the coolest things! Check it out.

I can't even begin to express how much I'm looking forward to this. New DLC for TLD is the fuel I need to push through Q4.

❄️🚨Calling All Survivors!!🚨❄️ Tune in to the Hinterland Youtube channel at 11AM Pacific time tomorrow, for an exciting announcement about THE LONG DARK. www.youtube.com/@hinterlands...

Best hockey game released in a long time. It's not close.

Bad Boys movies from best to worst: Bad Boys: Ride or Die Bad Boys Bad Boys for Life Bad Boys II Bad Boys: Ride or Die has absolutely no business being as good as it is.

If you're someone I know in Canada and you don't own it you could let me know and I might buy you a copy.

We'll be diving into Nasdara, the newest official DayZ map, for the first time at 10 p.m. ET. Come hang out.

I'm kind of shocked 12.2% of Wardogs players have this one. That's far.

Just three dudes in a shipping crate taking shelter from an emission.

The Witcher 3 Interactive Map is now live on Shackmaps. Our team worked their butts off to have this ready for the launch of the remaster, and it's looking incredible. Do me a huge favor and check it out, even if it's just for a moment. Still a WIP for some of the later areas, but very close.

The hours do not exist for me to spend as much time playing The Witcher 3 as I'd like.

It's kind of nutty how many things they got right. You'd call a shooter innovative for one major system that was unique, this game has like 10. It's bonkers.

No need for this kind of aggression.

Shackmaps, now with dark mode!

Played my first two rounds of Wardogs. Took 3.5 hours. Maybe the most fun I've had in a shooter in my life. I can't believe what they've built.

Hey, @stevedangle20.bsky.social. Was just watching the clip of Matthews getting 421, and when they empty the bench to swarm him I was struck by how many folks are gone. It's crazy.

This guy doesn't speak for Canadians. I'm not feeling wounded and I'm not confused. Most Canadians are itching for a fight right now. Our PM (who is not this turd) is being far more measured than most Canadians would be in his shoes.

If you want a good idea of how pumping your game full of generative AI will go over, have a look at the NHL 27 chatter this week.

Glad he's okay.

I've been working night and day on our Stalker 2 map, adding in new stuff from Cost of Hope. Overall, I'd estimate that it will be another 100-200 hours and a full play through of the entire game to add new stuff and tidy up what is already there. But man, I love mapping in the Zone!

Stalker stuff.

So much information packed into this one. A studio you can be proud to support.

It may shock you to learn that I wrote about GTA 6 today. But as the guy who wants a game to give me 1,000+ hours of discovery, things are looking good.

We're busy mapping the new stuff added with 2.0 and Cost of Hope. Our Stalker 2 map has taken off this week!

Our Mortal Shell 2 interactive map is live.

1,000 days survived in The Long Dark is no joke. I learned a lot about my play style doing this. What a journey.

It's tough to describe what a fucking disaster it is to try and sell something on Facebook Marketplace.

ICYMI: Shacknews EIC Asif Khan previewed The Duskbloods at FromSoftware HQ. Check out the preview here:

Everything about STALKER 2 Update 2.0 and the Cost of Hope DLC sounds amazing. @bill-lavoy.ca has been showing me nonstop clips of random encounters and other weirdness in the game and I can't wait to go back.

Fuck Snorks.

Sending this one straight to @ozziemejia.bsky.social for thinking the Dodgers are good for baseball.
