My @letterboxd.social Last Four Watched needs to be framed.

Some truly incredible imagery coming out of our latest national dumpster fire.

The year is half over. What are your favorite games so far? Mine (in no specific order): Marathon Retro Rewind Fatal Frame 2 Remake NBA The Run Eternal Afternoon Far Far West Mixtape 007 First Light

I’ve watched I Saw The TV Glow eight times to date, and each time I appreciate new things about it. I just love it so much.

this is actually a good reminder that you should delete the tracking nonsense off of any url that you share online. just delete everything after the ? (including the question mark) and share like you usually would

Finally (FINALLY) seeing Obsession in a theater today. I know it’s out on digital this week, but I didn’t want that to be my first time seeing it, because three kids at home usually means lots of pausing.

my beloved

The Sylvio series is on sale. It’s a horror series with incredibly creepy audio design. The solo dev is also a musician and it shows. Play with headphones in the dark. Playing these games reminded me of the movie Sinister, like you’re digging something up you weren’t meant to know.

I messed up my back last fall and finally started physical therapy to fix it. At first I was annoyed the prescription was just yoga and massages. It didn’t seem creative. But actually it’s working well and I think soon I’ll be pain-free.

A week of letdowns and a Paranorman rewatch

Steam sale outcome

lookingfor.game is now available on the Epic Games Store! I've curated some of my most anticipated and recent faves, check it out: store.epicgames.com/discover/loo...

I love Portland but man am I glad I’m not a Blazers fan. The new owner is an assclown who will likely move the team when the city doesn’t pay his ransom.

If you haven't played Mad Max, it's in the Steam Sale for $3 and it rules. store.steampowered.com/app/234140/M...

Live-service expectations have changed significantly since 2013, creating an interesting problem for the future of GTA Online.

They should make a Toy Story about the Small Soldiers action figures that I lost poolside at the Best Western Seabrook Inn in the summer of 1998.

Sadly Toy Story 5 doesn’t have the juice. Not terrible, but someone at Pixar got this confused with Inside Out. We spend way too much time with the humans. And it just feels like such an afterthought after 3 and even 4 wrapped it up much better. boxd.it/eVULTT

"I have instructed the DOJ..." used to be a scandal worthy of impeachment. Now it's a daily thing, a whiff of historic moral rot.

Dexter: Original Sin is Muppet Babies. I won’t elaborate.

My daughter and I found this lovely game called Adorable Adventures. You play as a baby boar looking for his siblings and mother. His name is Boris. 😭 You explore the wilderness using your sense of smell to track them down. It’s so cute. We love it. store.steampowered.com/app/3840230/...

Reading my first manga today, and just my luck—they put the cover on backwards. 😩

Petromasculinity has a body count

Happy for Pennywise and his husband

The constant battle over the humanity and cruelty of mass industrial meat production and consumption continues. As Seth explains, though, with no Democratic Party involvement.

Exploring Dreamcore’s final chapter, The Mall. What a vibe.

For Father's day here is one of my most popular articles that was the start of my next big project: the experience of finding out my son was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. There are hospital visits, doctors appointments and a lot of soul searching about what it means to be a dad and parent.

Shared this clip on my Instagram and several people are creeped out by it, asking what it’s from. It’s from Kiyoshi Kurosawa’s masterful horror movie, Pulse (2001). If you go looking for it, don’t accidentally watch the bad US remake instead.

Closing in on 100 reviews for @gamespot.com and I like stats, so here are some stats: Reviews: 91 Horror reviews: 45 Sports reviews: 14 Highest score: 10 (once) Lowest score: 3 (once) Average score: 6.9 (nice) Reviews not pertaining to series/IP: 31 First GameSpot review: Dying Light 2

Anyone else in games media have an issue where, no matter what you write, your family calls it a “review”?

Still haven’t seen Obsession 😩

Happy Juneteenth! If you're looking for something cool to play today to support a black business in the U.S., check out some of my games. - Studio is Black-owned - Black characters - Black Voice Actors And racist trolls hate us ♥️ linktr.ee/aerial_knight

Im sorry, they're *called* Greenwater?

GTA is on that NFL plan of turning every minor update into a major news item.

Power outage at home today, which means I’ll soon be scolded by my PlayStation.

"Urban Myth Dissolution Center" developer MOCHIKIN created a website that lets you share 9 Steam games that you would like to see more widely known. The website will also provide recommendations to similar games based on your picks. 9games.pages.dev

white people don’t say hip hip hooray anymore. they say let’s watch another emotionally complex film directed by the award-winning kenneth lonergan.

I was just reminded of one of my favorite things I've written at GameSpot: this feature on the business of horror IP becoming video games, and the experiences of the teams often called on to make those games. www.gamespot.com/articles/how...

I put together a Jason build for DBD that makes him feel more like the fella from the movies. www.gamespot.com/articles/my-...

This Junji Ito-designed killer in DBD is my pick for the creepiest one in the game.

NBA The Run's Fall Guys-like structure clinches it as an easy recommendation. My review:

I’m so desensitized to horror that there are only about 10 horror games that have ever scared me, but what I find fascinating is that four of them have been made by the same studio: @frictionalgames.bsky.social.

I get that it's different people making different decisions in a different economic context, but damn, buying up a bunch of studios and shuttering them within a few years sure does suck ass.

One of my @letterboxd.social Four Favorites

The @deadbydaylight.com 10th anniversary showcase just wrapped, with TONS of new stuff announced. I rounded it all up here, complete with some quotes from my chat with the devs. www.gamespot.com/articles/eve...

It’s neat how all these horror asym games find their own fits that work for them. Dead by Daylight: 4v1 Friday the 13th: 7v1 Evil Dead: 4v1 The Texas Chain Saw Massacre: 4v3 Killer Klowns: 7v3 Saw Genesis: 3v1 Halloween: 4v1 + story mode

I like the idea of new basketball fans tuning in and learning how the final 30 seconds of a basketball game take 7-10 business days.

One of my favorite horror games. Everything Dan makes is worthwhile, but this one is really my favorite. A must-play game if you're into horror, especially alien abduction horror.
