Aside from maybe a few weird moments of special effects, this film knows how to use its budget and tools. It's self-contained, and I was emotionally invested in Matt Hagen's descent. That climax with the editing should be a case study. Tom Rhys Harries gives one heck of a performance.
Gonna shape my opinion of it. ;-) #Clayface @jamesgunn.bsky.social

The slowest @andrewmarks.bsky.social may have ever talked? Just one odd moment from two months ago as I was making actual progression on the surface. Cheers Hermes! @supergiantgames.bsky.social

To all the folks at @supergiantgames.bsky.social and I do mean ALL (past, present, and future)... Thank you! As an old very wise wizard once said: "What we have to decide is what to do with the TIME that is given to us." It has been a privilege to play #HadesII. Now time to clean the house!
Too early for me to get anything based on the designs of Ravenous even though I love that one of them is a reminder of the suffering of Raven Beak by the hand of the Last Metroid.

NEW: Epic Games has delayed its upcoming (not yet announced) Star Wars + Marvel shooter as it pivots to complete AI game development. "No more hand-written code," a director told staff. All art "generated with full AI workflows." Full scoop: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

@airbagged.bsky.social That's one for the book. 27 years of N64 podracing eventually paid off. ;-)
Tried Galactic Racer thanks to my brother, spent four hours figuring out its system, eventually unlocked something related to the true King of Races. Spent another 30 minutes to get THAT gold medal for the Arcade mode of that track. Fun game, smart roguelite stuff.
Live! Worth revisiting for the occasion! twitch.tv/scolioreset
Metroid 5: #MetroidDread became a reality five years ago. I spent 16 years believing it was a urban legend when it first appeared on a leak because of IGN. I was 16. Half of my life was spent in that bubble at the time. With Silksong and Hades, Dread impacted me the most in gaming this decade.
Glad to be featured among other enthusiasts in that post of the 5th anniversary of Metroid Dread.
Happy fifth anniversary to #MetroidDread! To celebrate this occasion, we prepared a new feature that includes comments from some of you, and one of Dread's developers! We hope you enjoy it. shinesparkers.net/feature-metr...
This will be my legacy after the Metroid stuff. Game Over screen on the first level of Battletoads NES (NSO). www.twitch.tv/scolioreset/...
Motivated by @deegee2009.bsky.social to comment about physical media or lack of for Metroid Dread. As products get discontinued and second-hand is a solution, it is sad to see people will pay a premium unless a re-release is confirmed before Ravenous. From urban legend to reality... to ́lost art.
Rare becoming a support studio for a publisher focused on the most generic breed of shooters after pioneering console shooters with GoldenEye and Perfect Dark in the 90's is a sad irony. Banjo-Kazooie: Guns & Bullets?
-Activision will expand its remit to World’s Edge, as well as Rare -Bethesda will expand its remit to include Obsidian -King will expand its remit to include Microsoft Casual Games -Playground and Turn 10 will come together as one studio focused on the Forza and Fable franchises
They were just done working on Possessor under Devolver. Heart Machine always had some sort of struggle since HLD which needed a partial overhaul to run at 60 fps, but you didn't remember. Really sad to see the potential evaporate, and I do hope the engineers and artists will be safe.
