Also the fact you can just remove the "2" from this URL and get the Concord closure sure is something. Can't even be empathetically original in your subject about ruining people's lives: sonyinteractive.com/en/news/blog...

BANJO MADE IT TO SNF

Mario galaxy 2 is not a kids game

Wrote about the week. How the shooter's ID didn't appear to matter to ppl. How the discourse takes place in very same spaces that incubate/perpetuate hate & violence. How shooters now know that their acts will be flattened, analyzed, argued over & amplified. How all of this feels so dark & poisonous

Nightreign grabs some people immediately and those that stick with it and get through the initial barrier to entry are rewarded with some of the best souls combat ever. This is a game general consensus is going to come around on long term.

it's been almost 20 years since the Gears of War Mad World trailer and we are still trying to escape its shadow. no one will update their marketing plans. we are scraping the bedrock of songs we can slow down and make mournful. we are about to crack the molten core of the Al Yankovic catalog.

In about an hour, we start streaming Switch 2. Then, we start streaming from the Nintendo Store SF. Then, we stream all night until tomorrow's KFGD. Then, we do the world's No. 1 daily video game podcast. Then, we stream even more Switch 2. www.twitch.tv/kindafunnyga...

Put 35 hours into Nightreign and while it is an uneven game I think it's healthy for them to trust a first-time director to try shit out and turn their biggest franchise inside out. For @aftermath.site aftermath.site/neightreign-...

I actually think it kicks ass that the weirdo who directed a pair of games I don't like very much made one of the worst television shows of the year about the games I don't like very much. I know being a hater is out of season but I built a greenhouse in the backyard.

FFX is still one of the best video game stories ever told. So well executed. Square needs to find its way back to this magic.

Mario Kart World title screen. Pressing L+R pulls up the menu, but then if you select free roam, you seamlessly start playing wherever you are on the title screen!

'The Empire Strikes Back' released 45 years ago today

I know I'm a broken record about it, but seriously, one of the best ways to support me for free is to signup for my newsletter and share it! It's very funny I promise, but also gives me more options when it comes to shows like this for an avenue to cover things and hopefully get paid one day for it

Trying my hand at some new types of content over on the Restart TikTok page. Def a lot to learn about this stuff but having fun and I think our first little test came out funny!

imagine buying giant bomb and telling them not to say “fuck” and thinking you are in any way in the right about that

I got the freezer as my last room with 76 coins and 13 gems and then got to rank 3 the next day - just disgusting

Some general advice, btw: * Screenshot anything that looks even remotely distinctive. * Pay very close attention and investigate thoroughly, many of the game's core puzzles are not immediately telegraphed / obvious. If something seems off it probably is intentional

Just watched the treehouse with the switch 2 versions of bote and totk s d holy shit I didn’t know these games could look this good.

Am I a bad person for just not giving a shit about the price of the console or games etc? So much discourse is about the price when I really just care about what they’re offering games/features- wise.

It's wild, I left this website and its GOTY discourse went to Men's Warehouse and the man helping me was crying uncontrollably, just sobbing. He looks up and with tears streaming down his face mutters "They nominated Shadow of the Erdtree" He then fell to the ground and died.
