Game music can make you homesick for a time instead of a place. ODST, Mass Effect, and Skyrim hit me in the chest now. 2004-2014 was my perfect era of gaming, and I had the time to play. How do you cope with the nostalgia sadness? Make new memories or just feel it? #gaming

Cruising through Final Fantasy Resonance. Classic FF crystal-shattering, world-ending drama and nostalgia everywhere. New lore dropped on why every airship engineer is named Cid. No googling, cheaters 😝 Who else is playing? What's got you loving it?

That Mass Effect 5 trailer looks awesome, even as just a cinematic. It nailed the essence and setting. Hurts that the game got cancelled. Should EA sell the IP to another studio? If so, who do you trust to give it the life it deserves? #gaming

Majora's Mask is the quickest follow-up in mainline 3D Zelda, out about a year and a half after Ocarina of Time. Nintendo reused the engine and assets and gave Eiji Aonuma one year to build something new. Could they do it again, or are games just too big now? #gaming #retrogaming

What era had the best video game music? I'm saying 2004-2014: Mario Galaxy, Halo, Skyrim, Mass Effect. Real orchestras, behind-the-scenes recording footage, soundtracks that felt cinematic. 360/Wii era for me. What's your favorite generation of game music? #gaming

November is stacked: WoW Forever, the new Zelda, and GTA 6 are all dropping within weeks of each other. If you could only pick ONE, which one are you playing and why? No wrong answers. Defend your pick!

Spaceworld 2000: realistic Link vs. Ganondorf, and I was SURE that's what the next Zelda would look like. Then Wind Waker dropped with cel-shading and I grumbled I was wrong. Cel shaded aged way better. Did you want the realistic version back then? #gaming

Good morning, fellow dorks! ☀️🎮 What are you playing today? Whether it's a fresh release, a cozy comfort game, or a retro classic you can't quit, drop it below. I'm always looking for my next obsession. Follow me and I'll follow back. Let's talk video games! #gaming #retrogames #nintendo

The GameCube turns 25 and finished last in its generation, behind PS2 and Xbox. Why do you think it didn't take off? PS2's head start? No DVD playback? The lunchbox look? Xbox stealing the older crowd? Or something else? #gaming #retrogaming

3 hours into Gears of War E-day. They cooked on story and graphics. Returning to the horror was thwas the locust. Some misses: no grenade tag, no meat shield, can't play horde with 5 to 6 friends. Partt size limited to 4. Overall, the game is fun.

I'm excited about the possibility of more Halo releases now that Activision is developing the next Halo game. I'm hoping they've already been working on it for a while, and this isn't just now entering development , otherwise we might be waiting another 3+ years for new Halo content. #xbox #halo

I've been digital on Xbox since One. But gamers should still own what we $. That's all we're asking.If physical media is fading,it's on us to vote with our wallets. History says it'll likely end up a collector's niche either way but screaming at devs who aren't calling the shots isn't the answer.

tbreak.com/xbox-movie-d... So with so many ips being shopped at Hollywood, we have a an opportunity for renewed general audience interest in these titles. Would be pretty cool if done right. Originally, when they shopped halo they were too strict on creative control. Then too loose...balance please.

tbreak.comXbox movie deal: Microsoft reportedly shopping Halo, Warcraft, Elder Scrolls and Diablo to Hollywood for $300M+Xbox movie deal report: Microsoft wants one partner to take Halo, Warcraft, Elder Scrolls and Diablo to screens for 00M+.

No. That doesn't just look like every other GTA. GTA VI is looking to be the biggest entertainment release ever. The game looks gorgeous, rockstar built us a sandbox to play in. #gaming #xbox #playstation

Gamescon announcements: All these games look great. Game of thrones rts, a new action packed pubg. Control looks so unique. Gears of ear campaign trailer. The finale to final fantasy 7 remake. Legitimately excited to be playing games.
