As someone who talks about video games for a living, sports talk is still insane to me. This much energy spent on something you're not involved in at all. At least I go to play the games when I'm done talking about them.

This is an incredible honour. Thank you to my parents for working so hard so I could make it into this industry - and for inspiring me endlessly. Thank you to my siblings for being my player 2s. And thank you to my amazing girlfriend for putting up with my work-related crash outs

The Bomb 12 will wrap up the week tomorrow. You have through tonight to have your say! forms.gle/i5eWzaFAtjh7...

Hey, what the fuck

Are you or someone you know skipping GDC (or considering doing so) because of worries about coming to the US/San Francisco in the current environment? If so, I want to hear from you for a piece. DM me here or kyle DOT orland AT arstechnica DOT com. Please spread the word

At the Cleveland Gaming Classic, I started up a Vita and told Mike I was gonna play a gooner game and he said "what, dragons crown?" He was right.

Field goal/punt block is the greatest play in sports

Imagine how amazing it must feel to get Ratatouilled. Just absolutely freeing.

Went to a gaming convention today.

Please just give us compilations by Sega arcade generations. Give me all the Model 1 games. Give me Star Wars Arcade.

Video games were better when we had EA Sports Big, Midway Sports Asylum, and Konami XXL Sports Series.
