They mustard not bought the officer’s testimony.

Bought a party platter of soft pretzel nuggets, but I’ll be honest: There is no party.

"We can all kill each other in Arc Raiders. The fact that most of us are choosing instead to lend a helping hand, if not a sign that humanity will be all right in the real world, at the very least makes for one of the best multiplayer games I've ever played." Great review!

Can’t stop thinking about Arc Raiders. Last night I helped a guy take down a big spider robot so we could split loot, then we got ambushed by a dude at extract. My new bud gets dropped, but I kill our attacker and loot a defib off him and bring my homie back in time. We make it home safe. 10/10.

Today in solo I got trapped in an apartment building by a rocketeer a new player showed up and asked if I needed help. I said I’m so sorry this is your first time, Lock in We both took shots from different floors yelling when it was safe to shoot. It was cinema. Anyway we both died, we laughed. GG

Arc Raiders is one of the best multiplayer games I’ve ever played. It’s a memory-making machine with no off switch. This is my 4,000-word review on how it’s pure magic.

At 4:46 AM I woke up and started playing Arc Raiders. It’s 10:15 PM and I’ve been playing it all day. Haven’t done one of these kinds of days in probably 10 years. Absolutely hooked on this game.

Last three before my family and I head off into Mischief Night. JQCQ6-3VP34-RH?4C-4M6GP-HKXWZ JQPW7-YVW?W-9JPRW-WPPTQ-R3JMZ 7V962-J2?KV-MG6MC-QM3GM-FYGVZ Happy Halloween! 🎃👻🧙‍♀️

In a just world, Redfall would’ve been awesome. Thankfully, we still have The Blackout Club, which is stealthier, scarier, and better.

I've had many "my job is cool" moments in these four years. Exclusively revealing a new Akira Yamaoka song is undoubtedly on the list. www.gamespot.com/articles/exc...

In the mood for a scary new game this Halloween? I’ve got you covered with my picks for the best horror games of 2025 for Output Lag! I also made the featured image, which brought me back to my cool ones for ComicBook. Hope you enjoy it and maybe even play one of these fine titles tomorrow or today!

Arc Raiders has been a fascinating social experiment for me so far. I'm going into every round trying to avoid PvP, reminding players we don't have to fight. "I'm cool if you're cool. The robots are the bad guys. We can both get home safely." Most people are actually listening. It's amazing.

Give yourself a little treat and rewatch Donnie Darko today.

Earlier this year on a call with @apogeeent.com, I proposed the idea of enlisting Akira Yamaoka to compose an original track for Total Chaos. Apogee producer Jeron Moore liked the idea and asked. The legend agreed. Here’s a preview of Akira Yamaoka’s Catharsis. It’s a banger, guys.

People without kids be like, "Let's go to the movies."

Late to this, but if you aren't willing to stand up for trans people that puts you on the side of the villains. There is no excuse and no "strategy" that justifies it. Either stand with people under attack from the state or get out of the way so someone with a working moral compass can step up.

Can’t wait to talk about my Game of the Year soon 🥹

Played and enjoyed Arc Raiders for four hours last week. I'm curious to see how I fare while trying to stay passive and friendly toward other players. Like Sea of Thieves (my favorite game), Arc Raiders doesn't force you to fight each other, so... what if we don't? It'll be a fun social experiment.

As another game I enjoy adds a battle pass, I’m reminded of something I wrote a few years ago. www.gamespot.com/articles/wev...

I wonder if Battlefield 6 can find a middle ground between authentic military sim and Fortniteification, because these skins are boring. Fantastic game but why even bother with customizing your avatar when they all look like this?

Last night, my daughter beat Henry Halfhead without my help, though she did use this two-screen setup so she could follow a guide for the last level. 😅

I reviewed Escape The Backrooms, a fun, frustrating, and (sometimes charmingly) janky game that your kids are probably interested in.

Great way to understand both how little it will take from each of us to be a part of something bigger and how many people in this country are being crushed by this shutdown. We are all we got.

Here’s Nick Cave replying to a correspondent called Valerio who was asking him about how to respond to a growing sense of cynicism - here. www.theredhandfiles.com/do-you-still...

Apple has the first five seasons (the full original run) of Are You Afraid of the Dark for $15, and the three mini-series from 2019-2022 for another $15. All that’s missing are the two reboot seasons from 1999-2000.

A charmingly janky, grungy, neo-noirish, Christmas-set vampire story in Seattle. I think I’m gonna enjoy Bloodlines 2.

How old were you when you learned it’s wheelbarrow and not wheelbarrel? I think I was probably like 15.

One time in high school a dude asked me if I was related to someone he knew with the last name Delano. I had to tell him that’s not how last names work.

I got laid off from TheGamer today, along with the entire Features team (go give @epicswitzer.bsky.social and @hallafyre.bsky.social a follow!) Needless to say, I'm now looking for work. I'm open to roles in: -Journalism -PR -Copywriting -Copy editing -Games writing -Scriptwriting

For Halloween, I ranked all of Supermassive's "horror movie" games.

I'd never vote for Rand Paul, but on this issue he's absolutely correct. This is a clear and profound distinction. No declaration of war. No evidence of crime. What Trump & our military is doing is mass murder. It's no different than any mass-shooting of innocents – just with bigger (military) guns.

[through gritted teeth] Block and move on. Block and move on.

This is the most wide-open GOTY debate I can think of. What has your vote if you had to pick today? I think I'm looking at Peak, REPO, or Kingdom Come 2.

Bigwigs at every company are being sold a bunch of lies from businesses pushing AI. They implement it in their workplace. It inevitably goes horribly, but not before it breaks a bunch of processes that didn't need fixing and gets people laid off. What an incredibly dumb moment in human history.

I was on IG for 5 minutes and saw more AI slop than I have all week. We couldn't handle the damn fake picture of the hurricane shark....it's a wrap for the nextdoor community

I’d find it odd if anyone at all was a massive Stranger Things fan. This is a show that’s been dragged on way too long, has always avoided consequences for its main cast, and is generally the most C+ show to ever become a hit. Loving Stranger Things would be like loving Red Robin restaurants.

I love being a dad. 🥲

I played the Reanimal demo and it shot to the top of the most anticiated horror games list that permanently exists in my head. Go play this free demo! www.gamespot.com/articles/rea...

The Outlast Trials crosses the threshold and adds PvP next week. I played it yesterday and found it to be paranoia-inducing fun. www.gamespot.com/articles/the...
