A lot of people assume that Amsterdam has been biketopia since time immemorial but it actually was car hell for decades before the citizens became fed up with car fatalities and forced the government to rebuild everything around mass transit and bikes. It took time and will, but they did it.

It was a pleasure to join Brain and geek out about Pokemon!

Cameron has done incredible work over the past few months for us! Absolutely love how this came together.

didn’t include games coming out in November and December for my own sanity

good luck finishing silent hill f, hades 2, hollow knight silksong, ghost of yotei, hell is us, final fantasy tactics, metal gear sold delta, pokemon legends z-a, battlefield 6, cronos, dying light the beast, trails in the sky, arc raiders, and borderlands 4 before award season

woke up early to tell the internet i played more pokemon legends: z-a, and that i'd like to play a lot more article: www.gamespot.com/articles/pok... video: youtu.be/HhXaGpUaBpA?...

I played a bunch of Pokemon Legends: Z-A and walked away with a slightly better understanding of what the Legends branding actually means. Check out my full preview where I get into a lot of good bits and bobs

Silent Hill f is haunting, captivating, and probably my favorite game of 2025 🖤 www.gamespot.com/reviews/sile...

A classic one-hour /noclip doc on one of the best games of 2024. Watch it this weekend and support our work to tell the development stories of cool games.

Microsoft continuing the trend of shooting themselves in the dick

2024: Lorelei and the Laser Eyes 2023: Baldur’s Gate 3 2022: Elden Ring 2021: Psychonauts 2 2020: Half-Life: Alyx 2019: Disco Elysium 2018: Red Dead Redemption 2 2017: PUBG 2016: Uncharted 4 2015: Witcher 3 / Bloodborne

anyway, started playthrough #2 on Switch

Finished act 3 with 60 hours. That almost broke me. Thrilled to finally put this game down tbh

Rolled credits on Silksong the other day after 32 hours. I definitely get the Dark Souls 2 comparisons, but here’s the thing: Silksong is good.

cleared this room before it inevitably gets patched 🫡

this room. god help me.

unpopular, i know, but i kinda fw the diagonal pogo. you can get the standard pogo pretty early on, and i think its an interesting way to throw off hk sickos

Friendly reminder it’s Silksong not SilkSong or Silk Song. Thanks!

I beat Hollow Knight for the first time last year, but that hasn’t stopped me from messaging Hollow Knight sickos to offer them some very basic tips and advice for Silksong.

I reviewed Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater and it’s very good. Exactly what I want out of the remake: 📝 www.gamespot.com/reviews/meta... 🎥 youtu.be/qdIbICLLzTE?...

so far he's: - started by sighing and said making games is hard - plugged his YouTube channel - admitted its weird to have two kart racers the same year - lamented the fact that you have to use two buttons instead one on now and we're only 15 minutes into a 45 minute direct

gamers, especially the smash community, don't deserve Sakurai

I don’t think people understand how big of a deal Pokemon Champions is… So, I wrote 1000+ words on why. www.gamespot.com/articles/pok...

Its refreshing to see so many people get genuinely excited about Pokemon at Worlds. There’s so much negativity around Pokemon online and sometimes its easy to forget how important these games, cards, character, etc are to people

I've spent this week doing painstaking research and lab testing to figure out which pair of pants will give you the edge in Drag X Drive youtube.com/shorts/oS15e...

I was skeptical about Pokémon Legends: Z-A’s battle mechanics, but after spending some time with it earlier this week I’m eager to play more! Check out my preview! Written: www.gamespot.com/articles/pok... Video: youtu.be/l8fJXw_HbvA?...

Made this video before Everdark Caligo dropped

Elden Ring Nightreign has been so fun. I happily await its DLC.

Mafia: The Old Country is a beautiful game that suffers from dated mechanics, generic gameplay, and a predictable story. Here’s my review: www.gamespot.com/reviews/mafi...

for gamespot, i had another big-brained take www.gamespot.com/articles/xbo...

I've unlocked every achievement, completed every remembrance, and defeated every Everdark (so far). After 100 hours, I still can't get enough of Elden Ring: Nightreign. Easily my game of the year so far. youtu.be/OYvBfK2mxpI?...

Hello! You may have seen it, but I am one of the employees that have been impacted by layoffs at IGN. It's been a great six years, but this now means I am looking to apply my talents to something new and exciting.

I've put in a bunch of time into Grounded 2 over the last week and while it's not as evolved as I would like in some areas (SO FAR) it's still Grounded which means its great fun!! www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4mf...

So I’ve kind of quietly stepped into a new role at GameSpot over the last couple weeks heading up our op-ed section and it’s maybe the most gratifying work I’ve ever done. Sounds cheesy but working with freelancers and bringing their ideas to life has quickly become one of the best parts of my job 🤍

had the wonderful privilege of joining @blessingjr.bsky.social, @snowbikemike.bsky.social, and @megfables.bsky.social for a friendly game of commander (except I brought a not-so-friendly Vivi deck like a try hard) www.youtube.com/live/iD3OGMy...

Hello. About a year and a half ago, some guy called Ralph asked me if I wanted to make a new videogame website. We're launching it today. Maybe you can even visit it if people stop hammering the server for a second.

They brought me back for one more mission... because they needed the best. The game has changed but the players are the same. My Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3+4 review: www.gamespot.com/reviews/tony...

Made a video about SGF. One part industry analysis, one part personal essay, one part YouTube meta discussion, one more thing. Link below:

game of the year

After 2 months of work, the Clair Obscur Expedition 33 video is here. I interviewed most of the game's senior leadership team asking one simple question: how did you do this? Their answers were inspiring and moving, and it's no surprise that COE33 is as remarkable as it is: youtu.be/mXLOLgC2V2Q?...

Hello, I played Disco Elysium on mobile and it made me spiral about how the internet has ruined our brains. Enjoy! youtu.be/5-Z4EM8EM7Q?...

I replayed every Naughty Dog game. Before we get to their next chapter as a studio, let’s reevaluate their entire PlayStation catalogue. Premiering now: youtu.be/olgVvZLQR6A?...

We’ve been going back and posting video reviews for games we missed after the layoffs/strategy shift and the YT comments have been so shitty. I’ve been doing this so long that I’ve got a pretty gauge on what the audience will dislike but this has genuinely taken me by surprise.

You should check out our Switch 2 unboxing www.youtube.com/watch?v=-MhW...

my hot take is that Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour is really good and if it was reskinned as a Wario Ware game people would happily pay $60 bucks for it
