Been finding myself enjoying immersive games a lot more after finally accepting that HDR is just supposed to look like *that*

Today’s the 5th anniversary @eidosmontreal.com’s awesome Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy, so to celebrate, I had a fun chat with Star-Lord himself Jon McLaren. He discussed favourite memories from the game, its enduring popularity, his streaming journey and what makes Canadian artists so special.

Gutted. Wow. Studio made some of the most important games in my life

EA is shutting down BioWare. The next Mass Effect has been canceled: https://www.rpgsite.net/news/21611-bioware-shutting-down-ea-job-cuts-mass-effect-canceled

Mafia: The Old Country now being on PS+ is massive for me. I've been soooooooo curious about that game but just didn't want to commit to the sticker price in case I didn't like it. Can't wait to give it a go

Resident Evil 3’s haptic feedback where L2 to aim the shotgun feels heavier than L2 to aim the pistol is really cool and adds to the intensity. I’m sure other games have done it, but I can’t recall other titles having different weapons feel heavier than others.

I think the wildest thing about being post-twitter is that you can tell, just in regular conversation, when someone still uses it. There’s an underlying anger and a like… disconnect regarding what people actually think/care about?

It's not even the ethics of it. My career, my hobbies, my free time, hell, my whole life took off once I fully left Twitter. It is a place to go if you want to be stuck in a neverending race war feedback loop. Like not using ChatGPT, not using Twitter is a superpower. Remain employable; stay off it.

Just played a Yellow vs Yellow match in OPTCG and I have lived several lifetimes back to back, transcending beyond concepts like time, age, and needing to be up early for basketball tomorrow

Sorry to come on here and shill for Amazon but it is very cool that because they took my money so I can watch Lanterns, I coincidentally get to play Star Wars Galactic Racer for free

I hate that Guardians of the Galaxy didn’t sell well at launch because it’s absolutely the direction superhero games should be taking. Very very underappreciated

People with completely empty cars freak me out. What do you mean you don’t go everywhere with an emergency hoodie and emergency basketball shorts/shoes stowed away for just in case?

Witcher 2 was obscenely not for me. Tried The Witcher 3 three separate times and didn’t get more than 10 hours in. Have seen multiple folks say, if you don’t like The Witcher 3, the remaster doesn’t change that. But I liked the TV show, Cyberpunk, and Dawnwalker, so this time will be different.

Forever stuck in the middle of wondering if I’m a Fire Force jacket kinda guy or a David Martinez cyberpunk jacket kinda guy

The deflect mechanic in Onimusha is my new best friend. Adds an extra layer of mindfulness to parries and feels GOOD

Walking back my previous enthusiasm about the Yuki Chiba Jojo’s song after finding out Dr Luke worked on it. Insane that guy’s still getting work.

Timmy’s kinda low tier as a place to go on purpose, but kinda peak when there’s one in the gas station and you need gas station tier sustenance

I knew I was gonna thoroughly enjoy Onimusha gameplay wise. But the aesthetics got serious hands, not to mention these animations are like god-tier

Jennifer Hale once told me Canadians need to champion ourselves more. I wholeheartedly agree. Over the past few months, I reached out to dozens of Canadian devs to learn their favourite Canadian games. Their varied responses offer a wonderful spotlight on some of the incredible talent we have here.🍁

mobilesyrup.comThese are must-play Canadian games, according to Canadian devsAs Canadians, we don't champion ourselves enough, so we asked dozens of game developers to do just that.

We live in a world that allows Yellow/Blue Boa Hancock vs Purple/Yellow Nico Robin to be a matchup that can happen in OPTCG. I’m sick to my stomach!

I’m so curious about Injustice 3. Absolutely loved IJ2 but didn’t really care for MK11 or MK1. Like, what is it gonna be like, I just need to know

Pompeii is a UNESCO world heritage site not because it was remarkable in its prime, but because it survived to our era untouched: one moment, preserved for all time. But future generations won't know what OUR world was like unless we do the same. This is why we MUST bury Toronto with a volcano
