Okay I’m only sort of paying attention to the World Series but the Brewers just score EIGHT RUNS in ONE INNING??

I sold my Xbox Series S (because I hadn’t played it in like two years — in part because I have too many devices, in part because of the BDS boycott) for the same price I paid for it about 4-1/2 years ago. I’m happy to get a decent amount of cash for it, but this isn’t how things are supposed to be

Sitting down to see You Can See Everything. Excited to see what the heck all the buzz is about

the most important decoration is now up — @marlowedobbe.com's WAL-OUIJA BOARD

Oh hey, @hankgreen.bsky.social has a new game. It’s definitely more complex than 4x3 and Smush but it has a tutorial to introduce the game. I’m intrigued

The Empire Strikes Back for Tax Purposes

I’m in the market for a new Apple TV but $299, yikes. Thanks AI.

I bought this after hearing @jasonschreier.bsky.social talk it up on this week’s Triple Click. Excited to check it out

Nothing but respect for MY digger

I gave Braid an A+ back in my press days. I spent 100s of hours working on The Witness at PlayStation, fighting for it, getting it into conferences, and being Jon's personal wrangler. I even coined "Metroidbrainia" after it. I will not be buying Order of the Sinking Star, and neither should you.

Apparently there’s a new game out this week from Jonathan Blow - lead designer of The Witness and Braid, two games I absolutely loved. Too bad I won’t play it because he turned out to be an absolute douche and I have no interest in supporting him 🤷‍♀️

Holy shit Trump Mobile has 3,600 customers?!

Blake Manor is a game I didn’t connect with as much as I would have liked — but it’s a unique enough swing that I kinda want to own a physical edition.

This is not to suggest the friction in those games is bad — I LOVE Silksong, it’s probably my favorite game this decade. But Well Dweller is mechanically solid and gorgeous like Hollow Knight, without the “frustrating” elements that turn some people off.

If you have any interest in puzzles, check out @flebpuzzles.bsky.social’s 20 Small Mazes and 20 More, Somehow Even Smaller, Mazes. Both are short, delightful, incredibly inventive, and free! store.steampowered.com/app/4428890/...

Happy colonoscopy day to me. Made it through the preparation so hopefully the worst is over? Looking forward to laying on the couch this afternoon

See you next mission!

Morbius, Madame Web, Kraven all didn’t work… surely THIS is what the people want

Wow, how many shows are there currently in production about people hunkered underground after some kind of apocalyptic event? I count at least three which feels like a lot for a very specific log line

This is a good game

See you next mission

iPhone’s “offload apps” to save space feature is great — until it offloads things like Lyft or AAA that I may be in a dead zone when I need them. These are the robots coming for our jobs? Come on

I replayed Samus Returns and finally appreciated that game for what it is, but AM2R is the real deal

I am once again trying to play through the original Metroid. A game I’ve been playing for over 30 years and have never finished, despite it blossoming into one of my favorite series. We’ll see how it goes…

It’s a bummer that so far reactions to Control Resonant are mixed, but I’ll be checking it out day one to support Remedy at the very least.

SEE YOU NEXT MISSION

Started replaying Super Metroid (because Metroid Ravenous has me back on my bullshit again) and every time I revisit it, I am reminded how spectacular it is. The physics are a little floaty but otherwise I have almost no complaints. (And I know there are fan mods to change the physics, but… nah.)

See you next mission!

we’re never getting ace attorney 7 are we

If you can get past the fact that it’s 30 FPS (or emulate with a 60 FPS mod), Samus Returns really is a proto-Dread. I’m having a fantastic time with it This is the turnaround I always hope to have when I replay Spirit Tracks (but never actually do)

Metal Gear Solid because I think my mom thought the ESRB’s description of “mature sexual themes” meant it was porn or something

With $10 off the standard edition, I don’t think I can justify the special edition for double the cost
