Shot; chaser

What basic-ass Top 40 needle drops are they going to put in the movie this time. 90% chance there's an ABBA, Queen or Hall & Oates song in there.

If you worked at Epic Games within the past six years or so and are comfortable chatting briefly about its recent internal priorities (I will not share your name), you can reach me on Signal at: tylerwilde.01.

Hyperfixation go brrr, so I did a hefty write-up on every currently available English fan translation for N64. Exciting to think that over 1/4 of the Japanese-exclusive library has been translated now, most within just the last decade or so.

Today, Bridgy Fed begins expanding beyond microblogging, starting with long-form. If your Atmosphere (Bluesky, Blacksky, Eurosky, Northsky, etc.) account is bridged, all of your @standard.site publications and documents will bridge over to the Fediverse and the web 📜↔️📃 1/4 🧵

In both joke conception and execution I don't think National Funk Congress has ever been topped

I depicted the famous Evo 2004 Daigo Parry as a manga page for this shirt! Comes with a bonus Ken sticker which I also designed www.fangamer.com/collections/...

Desperately need a Whit Stillman of the 2020s. Could someone please make Materialists but good

Post-Blizzard Mike Ybarra absolute champion of takes that land somewhere between bad and "bro is your brain actually cottage cheese"

Here’s my interview with Shishir Mehotra, the CEO behind Grammarly’s “expert review” feature which attributed writing advice to people - including me lol - without permission. Or, as you will hear us talk about a lot, compensation. www.theverge.com/podcast/8987...

Internet radio ad just opened with the exclamation "Nothing stops RAM" which is an objectively funny thing to say in 2026. Yes it was about the trucks not the memory that no one can buy, but buddy have you seen gas prices lately

I just created an OpenGL hardware renderer for STAR keitai emulator. No longer will heavy 3D games run badly. Minna no Golf Mobile 3 goes from like 4 FPS to a locked 30 FPS. All with proper 3D character rendering and texture loading. Plus internal resolution scaling.

Struggling to pull an issue together this week, so I think it's time for a break week -- next ROM will be out on March 29!

We don’t do a lot of personal blogging on @pcgamer.com so please enjoy my first person account of getting sloppergangered in 2026

“It was like an out of body experience, except I couldn't stop thinking about another ‘me’ out there giving people bad advice and making a company a bunch of money.”

Google has been pulling this kind of shit for years, sometimes ignoring meta titles and descriptions to grab some text off the page it unilaterally decided was better. Now thanks to the Power of AI it can achieve record new lows in misrepresentation!

If you read one book about games this year, make it The Score. Here’s my interview with its author, the brilliant philosopher @add-hawk.bsky.social

The Video Game History Foundation's newly digitized GDC 1989 tapes are rad. Talks with Dani Bunten! Trip Hawkins blasting Nintendo's licensing policies! A *retrospective* panel for gaming in 1980! Absolute gold that this stuff survived and is accessible for everyone now.

Death Stranding 2 is out on PC. I have written a review from the apocalyptic present of the year 2026 www.pcgamer.com/games/action...

lol I had not watched the entire 3 hour Nvidia keynote so I missed this bit with Jensen talking about doing AI shit with Palantir(!!!) with "Nvidia ♥️ Palantir" in 100 pt font on the screen behind him

One of my favorite anecdotes from GDC: How a brutalist Mirror's Edge mod and an avant garde skateboarding vid led to one of last year's most creative games

Hi everyone. Things have been happening in the fan-translation scene and I've been overdue in talking about them. For the first time ever I've made a long writeup. Please read it and feel free to reach out to me with comments.

The stench of desperation Google gives off with the colors and animation on the Gemini button it jammed into all its apps. Nothing else on the screen gets this treatment!! Gemini is just a special little boy that needs attention 🥺👉👈

Grace big lips

Gonna hold on to this croissant metaphor for the rest of my creative life

DLSS5 is a Mar-a-Lago Face psyop. Looksmaxxing-ass Tiktok selfie filter-ass technology

nobody has ever been able to display a sleep paralysis demon with this kind of harsh, lacerating sharpness

While @amandafarough.ca and I were talking to some press folks at GDC, I told an old QA story that Austin picked up on and decided to write about. Behold, a record of my crimes: www.gamesradar.com/games/fallou...

"Inherently built on theft and utter disregard for consent." Sabrina Imbler cutting right to the heart of Grammarly's AI bullshit: defector.com/vindicated-a...

all will rise is handing back Microsoft money & pledging @nogamesforgenocide.com — it’s a difficult thing to do when funding and attention are scarce commodities for indies like us, but we hope more of our fellow devs and indie studios will join us in taking a stand 🔥 www.pcgamer.com/gaming-indus...

Meant to do this ages ago, but collected the links to all my translations of proto-gekiga anthology Kage -- a collection that altered the course of manga forever -- into one post for easier reading! If you're interested in manga history even an inch, this is essential stuff!

I have a new piece up at @rockpapershotgun.bsky.social — it’s about when I got hacked in Dark Souls 2, used hacker tools to unhack myself, and then talked to my hacker years later

Thanks for this "6 years ago" curation, Google Photos

The Singularity is upon us: Apple's AI summarized a text message that read "I'm still down to clown if you are" to.... "clown event still possible."

Seriously? Opt-out via email is a laughably inadequate recourse for selling a product that verges on impersonation and profits on unearned credibility.

So, "Schrödinger no neko" isn't up your alley? How about a fully 3D JRPG about an amnesiac siren? This is "Shinkai densetsu Meremanoid". Already hacked the thing, got a half-width font, script dumped, the whole kit and caboodle. Ping me if you know Japanese and want to translate it!

Awesome news! @ozidual.bsky.social edited the full run of the 1987 Famimaga (Nintendo's Family Computer Magazine) magazines that I scanned a while back which means they're so much easier to flip through and read now! Check them out: archive.org/details/@ozi...

Some great PC representation in Resident Evil Requiem. We've got some off-brand Dell Optiplexes, some Lenovo "ThankCenters" ... and does that beige one have 5¹/⁴ *and* 3¹/²-inch floppy drives??

I happened to be in downtown SF today, so I tried stopping by the Superhuman AI office to ask about the AI “editor” based on me. Unfortunately just got a very nice office manager who said no one was in. Lots of games people in Grammarly’s pool too besides me…

I've been running gdcparties.com for a few years now. Some shitty company BlueberryAI decided they'd just take all the source code for the work I've done and reskin it, advertising it as their own. Jokes on them...it was still linked to my events spreadsheet, and now their website looks like this 😉

Uh excuse me what the fuck

I GOTTA figure out how to make money on this

Been baking sourdough every couple weeks since December and starting to realize why people got so fuckin excited about sliced bread

Brought leftovers home from an overpriced dinner last night and left them sitting by the door

please help out my friend baxter for his upcoming heart surgery !!

"Today, a new page is added to the great chronicles of history. As of 11:23 am EDT on March 3, 2026, Nexus Mods now hosts its first sexy Leon mod for Resident Evil Requiem: Leon Shirtless RPD by modder SERGISHOLS, whose name will live forever."

Thinking about PangYa today. Its final official servers, in Thailand, went offline 5 years after I wrote this 🥲
