Probably need to diversify my reads a bit more, but I had a good year.

I keep a playlist of songs that I discover/rediscover in any given year. If you want to know what was going through my head in 2025, here's a good idea: Spotify: open.spotify.com/playlist/02w... Apple: music.apple.com/au/playlist/...

Were 90s kids clamoring for a Batman cartoon with 1930s Art Deco aesthetics? Is that what the market demanded? Or did some really smart creative people have a vision and make a genre-defining hit that sustained 20 years of TV shows? If you want success look for vision, not just metrics.

hey @jamwa.bsky.social this lady who's definitely not an angry fantasy author is trying to sell me magic cards what do i do? www.youtube.com/watch?v=1jp4...

2025 was a year alright. For the first couple of months I was in a job that didn't want to put me on, and since then I got something else that's been way more satisfying and frustrating in equal parts. I also realized I had hard limits to how far I can stretch myself, and fixing that next year.

I'm nearing the end of Kamen Rider Den-O, and this exchange remains evergreen in relation to social media.

Another Archie styled piece from last year, this time mashed with Evangelion #art

We're in the middle of the aussie summer and I've got a bitch of a cold How

For those with Binge, @mitchmctaggart.bsky.social's seventh annual 'Last Year of Television' is now available. And all the old ones, too, of course.

I am happy with this Top 20 games of the year.

It's live, and my objectively right opinions are going to be shown to the world, come yell at me, I dare you. twitch.tv/jamiemgalea

cinemas should start doing Quiet Sessions for movies where everyone who buys a ticket agrees we are all going to be polite and act like adults and shut the fuck up and not crinkle chip packets

I'm firing up the stream machine for the last time this year from 6:30pm AEDT to do the traditional RANKING OF THE YEAR stream. The best games. The best movies. Come and yell at me for my objectively right opinions. twitch.tv/jamiemgalea - follow already if you haven't.

Only took nearly 20 years, but can finally say I knocked out Hotel Dusk. Great stuff, it'll never get ported or remade.

It can't be that bad, can it?

I'm watching Gremlins 2 with some mates, and amongst all the OH GOD WE FORGOT moments this elicited one of the biggest ones.

Missed some parts, but finally knocked this out.

How are Aussies getting around DMs and refuse to do the age verification bullshit? Are we just doing DMs on other platforms, emailing or what?

I threw on Home Alone because I haven't seen it since I was a kid, and god that really is just a magical movie isn't it?

Christmas lunch is on

fucks sake

Your power bill has tripled and you can't afford new PC parts just to create this.

I don't need ChatGPT, I can just type any prompts to these two and I can rely on them to kick me out regardless

Sydney friends! I have two tickets to see Gianmarco Soresi's sold out show at the Seymore Theatre on Wednesday Jan 21st at 9:30pm. I'm gutted I can no longer attend, but use my bad luck for your benefit! If you would like to buy them from me, I'm selling the pair for $139.80.

i turned too many years old today

This sounds like a useful idea but...no?

Closest I can get to an Odyssey screening at IMAX anytime soon lmao

You'd think I'd be on my way to see Avatar: The Way of Water because I'm drenched, but the blue people are back so they command my attention on the bigger screen.

New toy is delightful.

Fucking FINALLY. We love a good point of no return.

ResetEra being normal over a certain major video game getting a 4 out of 10 from Edge, because how dare someone show a differing opinion.

At what point do you read the press release that Modretro sent and, without employing any possible critical thinking or a hint of irony, decide "HMM, WE NEED TO SHARE THIS WITH OUR AUDIENCE?" Come the fuck on, do better.

it beginsss

My response to anything over the next two weeks

while we're on the topic of what's the correct way to implement placeholders in your game, here is an excerpt of unfinished dialogue from the april 2000 prototype of spyro 3

one day I'll play a One Piece game where they actually designed new outfits for the Straw Hats! One Piece Odyssey is not one of those games.

People need to understand that working in games is a "theme park job." Everyone on the outside sees the rides and the mascot suits and assumes it's a fun day out, five days a week. It can be fun, but it's still work. But it's that flawed perception that leads to studios taking advantage of workers.

I like this guy in Pluribus

Howlin' at this bit from Collected Works of Charles Cecil in the latest issue of Edge.

oh goddamnit I forgot :(
