Finally checked out Sektori thanks to it launching on the Switch 2 and everyone was right it absolutely rips and is undoubtedly one of 2025's best games. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zcTA... True Geometry Wars / Super Stardust successor.

Finished Mixtape. Great game. My score is about an ~8/10. As someone growing up in the 90s the game is like a laser-guided nostalgia missile directly into my brain. I 100% attended that party many times. The dialogue did not feel true-to life. Felt like John Hughes. Adults writing teens.

An alarming thing about getting older no one warns you about is how more and more of your doctors start to look like little kids.

My "I never had a relationship with Epstein" press conference is raising a lot of questions already answered by my press conference.

An AI dares to dream that she is human. You’ve been hired to put her in her place. We’re sunset visitor 斜陽過客, the creators of 1000xRESIST, and this is our next game: Prove You’re Human. Published by our friends at @blacktabbygames.com. s.team/a/4533950

Yup - can confirm. My middle schooler and her friends are similar. Moreso on the "makes you stupid" side. "We need school to teach us how to think and figure things out" Holding out hope that maybe the kids will, in fact, be alright.

"3DLSS 5" is a top-tier goof.

Legendary YT channel: www.youtube.com/@MulletPower75 Has only uploaded two videos, ever. 2008: One Piece anime scene where a girl spills ice cream on Smoker 2026: The same scene, from the live action show.

Still playing Crimson Desert every day. I got into Chapter 4 last night. Very strange game! I've never played anything like it. I can make a list of things I don't like about it as long as my arm, but I keep coming back for more.

Started Crimson Desert this weekend. What a weird game! I thought everyone had to be exaggerating about the storyline making NO sense but no it is literally nonsense. The storytelling + Kliff controlling like a tank are my big issues. Combat + exploration are fun so far.

I've been gone for 2 weeks so I haven't played Crimson Desert yet. Despite the IGN 6/10 I think I might like it? I'm in a mood for a "wander around aimlessly, arm wrestle dudes + collect bugs + liberate towers + invest money + buy houses + hunt bounties + unlock recipes" kinda game.

Heartened by reports that youth are flocking back to DVDs or even VHS tapes. The children yearn for cozy DVD menu music. www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQCr...

I hope they never fix it when you first start downloading something and it says 7 hours and then it changes to 16 minutes. Gives me a little thrill every time.

Today we have an amazing interview from 1989 with Shigeru Miyamoto and Shigesato Itoi. Conducted shortly after the release of Mother, it's full of deep musings about realism, creative exhaustion, the moral panic over kids & gaming, and prescient visions of the future. shmuplations.com/itoimiyamoto/

Burnout 3 is underrated as one of the very, very best games of all time because you can show Burnout 3 footage to people two decades later and their reaction will still be "hell yeah, this rules. I wanna play this right now."

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms continues to be fantastic. I want 8 more seasons of the adventures max CON/STR, low INT Dunk.

My whole family has been having fun playing in a shared Minecraft world. …until today, when we had an epic crash out in the Nether. A lengthy series of bad decisions and botched gear recue missions led to us losing EVERYTHING. All our diamonds, gold, levels, loot. One of my kids is still crying.

Incredible half time show.

Episode 4 has elevated Knight of the Seven Kingdoms from being a good show to a great one.

I was playing minecraft with my 9 and 11yo daughters and they both agreed the music makes them "nostalgic." They also said the Shimmer and Shine theme song was "fire" and also made them nostalgic for when they were "little." 🥲🥹😭 www.youtube.com/watch?v=sCIl...

ngl "passive consumers of unthought thoughts" goes hard.

I played some Hytale last night and some more this morning. It's fun so far! Very much on the "early" side of Early Access I would say. I wrote a short piece on some of my observations: www.ign.com/articles/7-t...

In the original Tomb Raider timeline, Lara Croft is turning 58 years old this year. In Tomb Raider 1, released 30 years ago for the PlayStation in 1996, she was 28 years old.

Halo 1 and Animal Crossing are as old now as the original Frogger and Galaga were when Halo and Animal Crossing first came out (25 years).

Gears of War turns 20 this year (2006 --> 2026), which means it is now as old as the original Zelda and Castlevania were when Gears first came out. (1986 --> 2006)

Took the fam bowling. The man next to us casually bowled a perfect game. I clocked it early and was incredibly afraid my kids would mess him up somehow. After the last strike everyone cheered and he say “first one!” And then packed up his ball and almost literally ran out? Legendary.
