HEROPON GET CAR KEYS

Struggling to keep my mouth shut reading the gen AI discourse this week. I have some reporting coming soon, months in the making, that I hope people enjoy.

big fan of the new FromSoftware character Pajama Hammers

we stole him from pc gamer, he will never escape

Inside me there are two wolves. One of them is impatient and just wants to play Marathon with my friend. The other one wrote this: www.gamesradar.com/its-just-imp...

The blood in the new Wolverine trailer looks uncannily like the goo from Portal 2. That is all.

A cheeky breakout from this: turns out 2020 was a long time ago www.gamesradar.com/games/action...

So what the heck happened to Pragmata? I spoke to the director and producer to find out. Very pleased with how this came together. www.gamesradar.com/games/action...

Absolute sickos shit from the director and producer of Pragmata, you love to see it

this quote might be the most-referenced thing i've ever written

Had a really great talk with the director and producer of Pragmata last night. Director Yonghee Cho's answer here got a very amusing response from the folks on the call and in the conference room with him. Rarely seen PR throw a flag on the play so fast. www.gamesradar.com/games/third-...

hi did you know in addition to TheGamer, Valnet owns Screenrant Movieweb Collider CBR Polygon and more? They treat writers like trash and are a major force in making the internet worse

A headline I have dreaded writing for a long time www.gamesradar.com/games/destin...

Enjoying AI Limit so far, but the people who said it gives Lies of P a run for its money are out of their fucking mind.

Today is, sadly, my last day at GamesRadar+ after a very fun three-and-a-bit years. Forgive my self-indulgence, then, as I link to a few pieces that I liked. Starting with that time I wrote about David Lynch's The Angriest Dog in the World. www.gamesradar.com/comics/david...

For @pcgamer.com I interviewed James Ohlen, veteran BioWare developer and founder of Archetype Studios, which is making Exodus. He spoke about burning out at Archetype (he left last year), feeling useless at BioWare, and a failed plan to reboot The Old Republic MMO www.pcgamer.com/games/rpg/it...

Credits on Saros. Fun shooter but much worse than Returnal. Final third really falls apart imo. A few imbalanced guns shrink the whole game, Artifacts are boring and absurdly scarce, using most modifiers feels like cheating, final level difficulty variance is massive, and I've come to hate the mc.

I spoke to the dad who went viral in and around the Pragmata community after he shared how android girl Diana had given him and his partner an opportunity to remember their late daughter, who passed in 2009, and who his young daughter only knows through photos. www.gamesradar.com/games/action...

still true!

Valve making Steam Machines: I have no memory, and I must ship

As far as motivation goes, I HIGHLY recommend "doing it because it'd be funny if I was just ripped all of a sudden" and convincing your closest dickhead mates to also think that is a very good and funny idea so you can all bully each other relentlessly whenever you try to take a day off.

good morning this is a real texture in Marathon

the world of ultimate gaming

Some of the best writers making games today decided to form a publisher "an hour" after a call: Slay the Princess and 1000xResist devs team up for new sci-fi adventure www.gamesradar.com/games/advent...

On the bright side, they're also destroying the publishing industry!

indie games will heal the world and my understanding of known arc raiders player @woodwould.bsky.social www.gamesradar.com/games/roguel...

a unicorn overlord sequel announcement would fix me

This is also why he put Pekora in

Kojima is right www.gamesradar.com/games/action...

Immersion in games is not ray tracing and realistic soundscapes; immersion is playing Slay the Spire 2 until you start to wonder how much mana words must cost in real life

Here's my Slay the Spire 2 interview—feat. details about the final ending, new character(s), new modes, and how The Regent's regal buffoonishness was autobiographical, speaking with @megacrit.com's Casey Yano. www.youtube.com/watch?v=FlmD...

A good review but one repeating a mistake I see often: "A major factor here is Marathon's rapid time-to-kill, where an opponent with good aim can drop you within a couple of seconds." This dramatically underestimates Marathon's TTK. You are dead in Half A Second, or to MIPS guns, in one (1) frame

just absolutely freebasing hades 2 and slay the spire 2, both contenders for best video game ever made, in alternating sessions like a roman emperor being lazily fed clusters of two different but equally rare and delicious grapes - hades for sweet, slay for sour

i love this image

Awwww yay www.gamesradar.com/games/after-...

what are we fuckin doin here www.gamesradar.com/games/nvidia...

i too wish to talk to developers at virtually at all times, but remain shackled by such limitations as: there is but one (1) of me

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...

The only problem with this review is that the volt thrower is dogshit

My Marathon review-in-progress is up! www.gamesradar.com/games/fps/ma...

Marathon review in progress (I am not reviewing it): I like the way this sucks

So far, Marathon is really good except for when it's not, which is a concerning amount of the time www.gamesradar.com/games/fps/ma...

have any of you read this I still think about it all the time It’s been long enough that so many people haven’t read what I consider foundational pieces of games criticism www.pcgamer.com/hotline-miam...
