I am shifting away from games journalism as my interest has always primarily been the arts in general. This piece is a peek into the style of writing I will be doing in the future. www.washingtonpost.com/style/2026/0...

Me to a friend earlier today I'M GLAD I'M NOT CRAZY

acteually fucking dying at the tas-only strategy for doing a shinespark here it's like fuckin white rabbit of inaba shit

its generational

People like Kane and many many others that do care about human art and the creative process have been a beacon of hope while trying to navigate making art in this current climate.

this discourse may have reached its narrative peak

Here's the full key art by Katsuya Terada for Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse, taken from the website: www.konami.com/games/castle... Featuring Rose Belmont, a new protagonist and the daughter of Trevor Belmont!

BREAKING: Top-rated game Mina the Hollower has sold 300,000 copies in three days, Yacht Club tells me — an impressive figure that ensures the studio will be just fine for the immediate future, although the co-founders are hoping for more: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

So here’s the game I spent four years writing 🥹❤️. I am so unbelievably proud of the team at Santa Monica Studio - I am well aware of the incredible talent that team possesses, but it’s more beautiful than I ever imagined. I cannot wait to play it (again technically 😏), now as a fan! #GodofWarLaufaye

"a goofy movie": a humble title. why it's not even necessarily "the" goofy movie. we simply, respectfully offer you this story for your consideration "doug's 1st movie": the hubris of icarus. the unbridled audacity to imply that this is only the 1st chapter of the Doug Cinematic Universe. pathetic

this is my local community member ludovic. he came to every xanadu local. he helped coordinate carpools to get other people to the venue for street fighter. he represented DMV at majors. he respected all TOs. he IS fgc personified. if you don't have the funds to donate, pls just repost & share.

“Please have 2+ years of experience with an engine we announced on Friday” really sums up the state of the games industry.

Donkey Kong Country 2's map design is exceptionally elegant in that it uses each of the game's 13 level themes exactly thrice each, without using any of them more than twice in a row. This is accomplished via several clever uses of the environment.

The first part of my #NewGaze+ series exploring the Famicom is (finally) out! This time, we're exploring the development and launch the Family Computer, taking a look at Donkey Kong in its many forms, and the legacy the game has today. superhylia.dev/blog/ng-donk... 💬 Post replies = blog comments!

This topic is so funny cause I think for a lot of people it's like 'yeah don't we already know this?' and it's mostly because of people like Keits talking about it. And also lol no some of this stuff will hit some people in the face like a truck.

I'm one of those trans women. I worked ground ops for Artemis I. I am torn between celebrating the success of my friends and peers and grieving how my dream of working for NASA was shattered by hateful assholes in Tallahassee

During a brutal time for funding in the video-game industry, the developer of the acclaimed 1000xResist found money from an unexpected source: the developer of Slay the Princess. This week's column goes inside the team-up between two beloved narrative games: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

Luke spoke with composer Ryan Lott and Bungie's Chase Combs about the Marathon soundtrack, which he can't stop listening to: aftermath.site/marathon-bungi...

it’s really funny that they made resident evil 4 VR and it immediately became the best game of an entirely different medium. doesn’t matter when or where you are. whether you play with buttons or motion controls or virtual reality. generations agree: resident evil 4

Game controller newcomers, we're here for you. The dual joystick camera/movement controls might feel overwhelming at first, but you got this! Here's some advice ... along with a little bit of time-traveling ✨

I am terribly sorry.

NASA = COOL SPACEX = SUCK

I now have a Patreon! I have some cool things planned once it gets going, but for now I'll be posting high res files, wips, and much more! If you'd like to support my work, you can check out the link below patreon.com/cw/Max58Art

@maximiliandood.bsky.social gets it.

bro waited until the film was out and his check was assured. god bless him

I was in multiple rooms at GDC where management of games studios let their hair down and said "everyone's using it, gamers hate it so we just have to hide it now", but none were actually able to explain if and how AI were making games faster to develop or better at all

this is all very true and niggas do the most for a series of books that are mostly not good in themselves even if you do enjoy them its not worth the cost of said enjoyment through keeping HP relevant or monetarily succesful for our trans siblings

Browser Super Monkey Ball now has online multiplayer! (And a few other things.) Play now!

not enough people treat video games as unavoidably art sure there are really smart people talking about the really artsy games, and huge fans hanging on to every piece of lore in their favorite series, but not enough people apply literary analysis and historical context to like.. super monkey ball

Since this is my first #TransDayOfVisibility out, guess I should do something for it. Hey, I'm Jon / Claire (go by both), came out publicly last year. Been making gaming videos and variety streams online for the past 19 years now under Proton Jon and The Runaway Guys. Love retro and modern games.

Exact budgets of video-game productions can be tough to corroborate (more transparency from publishers would be nice!) but the numbers I've heard floating around AAA game dev these days are $300 million or more — sometimes much more! — which I think helps explain the current state of the industry

Hello! AM2R Project 2.0 needs your help to make it across the finish line. If you're a pixel artist that can match the existing style and quality and want to help out, we would love to talk.

unfortunately txsd has been allowing a bunch of other players who've committed far worse than mike z at their event, whether knowingly or not. I know players like shinku (gbvs) and shinblade (tekken) have been in attendance in the past with no repercussions. highly implore texas fgc to pressure TOs.

This is your reminder that if you are a class member and have NOT yet filed a claim in Anthropic v. Bartz, the AI copyright lawsuit, you have 9 days to do so.
