Cid Pollendina from FFIV is undoubtedly the best of all Final Fantasy Cids. I will die on this hill.

The Crock Pot is one of the only times when real life works like video game crafting. You dump in some powders and the remains of several vile birds and out comes hot delicious food

"Honest Priest of Rathma" My take on the @diablo.blizzard.com #diablocontest "Belial, Lord of Lies" AKA #belialstyle featuring my necromancer character!

When you're at work, but it's still 'Blue Prince' vibes 😅

the world mourns for the pope, who passed away earlier today... only to be reborn as an idol school student in tokyo! watch "welcome to idol academy, francis-kun!" airing on toonami this friday

Frankly, put some ads on this site. Keep it sustainable. Sell me some Pepsi. I won't be mad, promise.

That's a solid looking custom. Stoked for Expedition 33

This is really happening. Full details on Saturday over at r/Xbox (can't wait to play!)

It's what's for dinner - spiritual edition!

Worth your time with the first season finale tomorrow evening. Really interesting characters all around!

Describe yourself in three ALIENS...

I see gamers waxing nostalgic for "Marble Blast Utlra!" all of the time. This is that. We were lucky enough to do an AMA with the team and it's many of the same developers. "Several of us were involved in the creation of Marble Blast and Xbox 360's Marble Blast Ultra!"

This is the first thing that has me missing iPhone in years. Wordle style competitive crosswords?! Yes daddy.

Kepler feels like and industry outlier in the best possible way. www.gamesindustry.biz/how-kepler-i...

Brilliant protest. Yosemite National Park workers hung an upside-down American flag — traditionally a symbol of distress or a national threat — thousands of feet off the ground on the side of El Capitan.

I think drawing little pissed off goblin girls is my comfort doodle

I used to deal with a lot of anxiety, but 'this too shall pass' and 'one day at a time' mentality really helped me to overcome that mindset. As you age, I think it becomes an easier practice. Don't drown in a puddle out there.

That's fun, how much would you pay for your own designed in-game character?

Three fights in under nine seconds of time. International hockey is wild 😂

I tried to do a roast on the stove top instead of slow cooker - and I blazed the thing. It's going to be tough as a boot. Low and slow is always the key.

Put this in the accolades trailer with a brief 'sexy lizard man' scene and then fade to black.

The fact that it is still functionally impossible to search for games on the Xbox store by developer in 2025 is kind of crazy to me. Search Kairosoft, get zero Kariosoft game results. Wild!

Reading through the 1989 premier issue of Electronic Gaming Monthly, it hit me why all the game screen shots look so washed out and funky. You didn't have a way of capturing them back then! It's all photographs of CRT's running the games!

The Double Fine Action Auction is now live! Bidding last until Feb 14th. All proceeds will go to both the Go Fund Me General Fire Relief Fund and the National Day Laborer Organizing Network to help those affected by the LA fires. Check it out at app.galabid.com/dfactionauction

According to a (now deleted) Xbox Wire rss feed update this morning, the "ID@Xbox Showcase Returns with IGN on February 24".

Forza Horizon 5 lands on the PS5 in the Spring….Switch 2 also expected to release this Spring. 🤔

Alert r/Xbox users spot a reference to World of Warcraft on GamePass in a new promotional e-mail from #Xbox. www.reddit.com/r/xbox/comme...

“I wanted to love this game, but it can’t hold a candle to [other game]” Serious question for gamers who say this stuff on the regular: Why? What experience led you to these binary judgments? How did games — an infinite playground of creative expression — became an either/or art form to you?

This is starting to feel a little real 😅

I'm buying into the portable/dockable space as a big part of gaming's future. Even more so after seeing the new hardware around the corner. This of course means I'll be spending the next two weeks researching an entry point on a level that forensic scientists would be envious of.

You never need to ask, “what would Kirby do?”, because the answer is always suck you violently into his humid maw and take your talents and abilities with malice.

"Organic Marketing" in the first sentence spoken at this meeting for a paid service - and I want to run out the door screaming already. New record!

Here we go again, an annual tradition now in my house - it's egg watch 2025! Jackie and Shadow have not had good fortune with harsh weather last year, and a scavenger bird eating their eggs the year before. I need this win planet! One egg, one bird. Let's go! www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4-L...

YouTube premium is a far more valuable subscription than Spotify at this point. I especially like being able to add unique and/or live performances to my YouTube Music playlists. This is great news.

Ever miss the days when news came in a paper - slowly, and you just sat around staring at shit and counting down until the start of a favorite show? This headline hates those times 😂

Interesting, and one of the many weird consequences if these tariffs go forward.

I drew something to illustrate how this TikTok thing happened. #tiktok

Poetry Foundation not fucking around with today's poem of the day www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/89897/...

As a designer, gamification is the grossest thing to me. Make folks change their behavior through meaningless awards and false sense of achievement .gross! It is a reason I left serious games. Gamification took the joy out of it. I want to treat my players as humans, not machines to be manipulated.

Should have called it the 'Switch One'! Big miss!

This time.
