Skate Story is another example of, I believe, a free demo cannibalizing sales of a great game. Not every game is meant to have a demo. Let the player buy the game and refund it if they don't like it.

People are talking a lot about the "fangirl" character moments from Metroid Prime 4. Anyway here's Doom Eternal doing the same concept very well. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xlry...

Our goal with the Kingmakers soundtrack is to be BIG and memorable. We want these songs to be stuck in your head for the rest of your life. 😁 www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7Wn...

Remember when GPUs didn’t even need heatsinks?

This image is essential for understanding the videogame industry.

Gen Z slang sounds like it came out of the 1920’s “He’s such a gooner” “He unalived 3 people” “She’s so chopped” “Stop. I’m dead” “Period.”

The algorithm for this website needs some fixes. Summer Games Fest just happened. At least half of the people I follow are literally game developers. Yet I only see a small handful of tweets about the show or announcements on my timeline, sprinkled in with a bunch of random stuff.

I'm happy to announce that the Kingmakers singleplayer campaign will support full multiplayer online coop. No compromises. Drop in or drop out at any time, or play through the whole thing with your friends or acquaintances.

My entire life, I've assumed John Williams speaks with an English accent, but nope. He's just a normal American dude.

Here’s my problem with The Boys: Starting in season 2, they decided to make Homelander into Trump. But they think Trump is a stupid incompetent buffoon. So now the main villain of the show is a stupid incompetent buffoon. 😒

Tip for artists looking for work in the gaming industry: 1. Use Artstation for your portfolio 2. Or use Behance if you must 3. Please don't make me navigate your insane custom website 4. Please please don't make me navigate through your google drive folder heirarchy

What if Streets of Rage 3 actually had the best soundtrack of the series? www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_Y1...

That Common People episode should have ended with the company going bankrupt and ending support for her brain.

Nothing annoys me more than videogame trailers being uploaded at 30fps. Inexcusable for a giant company like this. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZvJI...

Streets of Rage 3 (Sega Megadrive) has an underappreciated soundtrack www.youtube.com/watch?v=VqLU...

The 3DO version of Doom is probably the worst version, but maybe has the best soundtrack. www.youtube.com/watch?v=m35p...

So anyway, here's the Constitution.

I have a feeling Gamefly is gonna be making a comeback soon.

Blockbuster Video needs to come back just for the Switch 2

My favorite part about crappy AI-generated 3d models is what happens when you turn off the lighting. The image below is with all lighting off lol. 3d artists know what I'm talking about.

Whenever there's a big conversation on Twitter, I come here to see the Bluesky take, and it's....nothing. No search results. Has there been a single meta convo on this platform?

Shakespeare had some balls, writing plays set in Denmark, Scotland, Venice, Spain, etc. What the f did he know about those places? Probably just made a lot of shit up.

Good god this is probably the worst film review I’ve ever seen. And he made it years after the film’s release, meaning he actually put “thought” into it. youtu.be/aSXyPOvH_ws?...

As a kid, it's something I never really thought about, but Steve Martin is only 30 in this picture. Wtf?

This has to be the most egregiously misleading "RTX On / RTX Off" comparison I've ever seen in an official trailer.

It's cool how fire can be any color. That's all.

If you or anyone you know is making a game in the Unreal Engine, you NEED to know about the -stompmalloc commandline argument. *does not apply to fake games coded in Blueprints 🙂

Sega Genesis / Mega Drive can do great techno/club music (Streets of Rage 2), but falls on its face when trying to do other styles. This is why SNES music was superior. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yffa...

I wonder what this scene would look like in the original Movie Sonic art style.

What's the last great single player first person shooter to release? Doom Eternal? Am I forgetting one?

Average indie developer: “Look at my indie game! It’s an homage to (some game from the 90s). No I didn’t innovate on the concept at all. No I didn’t use the past 30 years of technological progress to do things the original creators couldn’t dream of. Please wishlist”

Fun fact: No, Christopher Columbus did NOT think he landed in India. He thought he landed on an Island near Japan. They just called that entire region "the indies", back then. Hence why he called Native Americans "Indians". It's also why the Caribbean is referred to as "the West Indies" today.

People love to make fun of that one Emilia Perez song, but there's a whole movie of songs to make fun of. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsD1...

If games like Sekiro and Dark Souls had a "restart boss on their second form" option, how many of you would play that way?

This guy really is amazing. Every video he makes, he finds new ways to be wrong. Not wrong opinions, but wrong facts. It's amazing how someone can get this many views on a video despite being so consistently wrong about everything.

Does Trials of Mana have the best pixel art in any game ever? I think so. What do you think?

When the Steam user score is significantly LOWER than the Metacritic score, you know there's a problem with mainstream game reviewers. Steam users are NOT hard to please. As long as you give them what's advertised, they generally give a positive score.

How is it possible that the racing genre is “dead” when you have sales numbers like this?

When it comes to VR, here goes.... 1. field-of-view doesn't matter 2. resolution doesn't matter 3. headset weight is what matters 4. AR is just hype 5. I don't know what "XR" is and I don't want to 6. A headset without motion controls is pointless

It's late 1993. Street Fighter 2 and Mortal Kombat have completely dominated videogames for almost 3 years, at this point. ...so you release a new console with a 3 button gamepad. I'll never understand it.

lol how is this the #2 best selling game? What did I miss?

Maybe 1% of videogame writing can stand up to quality TV or movie writing.

It's literally impossible to imagine someone choosing to listen to the Emilia Perez soundtrack, which seems like should be disqualifying for "Best Musical".

To date, Lucky & Wild is the ONLY arcade game to combine driving and light guns. That's a damn shame.

For people who don't think it was a nazi salute, I have to ask what he could have POSSIBLY done, if not that, that you'd say is a Nazi salute. Seriously what would those people accept as a definitive sieg heil if not that?

When I finish Kingmakers, I'm gonna make the Dark Souls of 3d platformers. No more cute kiddie games. It's time the genre gets the respect it deserves!

This guy is probably the biggest fraud on youtube. Almost every other word is just completely wrong. www.youtube.com/watch?v=4I6i...

If someone buys my game, it's theirs to do what they want with. Mod it all day one. Hack it to pieces. It's yours.

Turn-based coop games seem like a great idea in theory, but no :(
