I was so shocked and surprised by our #2 that I couldn't think of all the points I wanted to say in the moment, but one worth highlighting, my love for [that game] is precisely why I love the Shrines in Breath of the Wild so much. If you know, you know. www.youtube.com/live/sfapp06...

Obviously I'm very represented in this list, but I gotta give love to production for moments like letting me go off about Wayne Gretzky's 3D Hockey and Sonic Heroes... games I would never vote for on a list, but are so vital to my life. I feel very seen this week ❤️ www.youtube.com/live/U_ZJSH5...
Turned this thread into a YouTube video where I watch trailers of people's suggestions. Quite a few good suggestions I'm excited to pick up. youtu.be/7zpvHZ9ZhXQ?...

Control Resonant and Onimusha: Way of The Sword are superhero games. New piece is up on Hidden Gem: hiddengem.player.gg/posts/contro...
While reviewing this game I kept thinking "they're gonna patch this day 1 to make it easier huh" ALL THAT SUFFERING FOR WHAT
For the CONTROL Resonant launch, we are deploying a hotfix to address enemy health pools and Dylan's combat strength. Combat is more dynamic. Upgrading is made more straightforward. More on our blog: https://ow.ly/VEE350ZQXhC #CONTROLResonant
On our show today we're going to say this is bad and then Twitter and Reddit will clip it out and everyone's gonna say we have an anti-Xbox bias
Xbox - "Continuing Our Reset" - 'First, we are eliminating 268 roles across Halo Studios, other first-party studios, and the XGS management and central functions layer.' More: news.xbox.com/en-us/2026/0...

Instead of celebrating that success, I'm mourning the loss of my and many of my talented colleagues' jobs. Please hire them. Please hire me. And please still read and watch our work. Our Steam Frame review is sharp and smartly critical of an extremely interesting piece of technology.

His games are very expensive to make and Death Stranding 2 didn't exactly do gangbusters (it sold well, but not extraordinarily). So my read is the number crunchers at Sony just weren't feeling it. That said, you can't only listen to the number crunchers.
Kojima probably wanted to hire RDJ or someone else crazy big for a role and Sony was like nah we good.
When your platform identity hinges partly on the prestige and critical success of your games, you might have to spend some money to maintain that even at the sacrifice of monetary success of individual titles. Because guess what? Physint being a critical darling helps sell the NEXT PlayStation game.
The only way I was able to put down my AYN Thor this weekend was to write about it. In just a week of having it, I'm obsessed. Free post: hiddengem.player.gg/posts/my-new...

My biggest problem with this is that a certain section of the audience believes a good review is one that conforms to the general consensus. Somewhere along the line people really lost the idea that not only can they have a different opinion on a piece of media, but differing opinions are exciting.
Call me old fashioned, but maybe the point of reviews and critics isn’t just which ones line up with the majority
