U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

Played the first three hours of Replaced and found myself even more convinced that it will be one of 2026's best games. www.ign.com/articles/rep...

Markiplier’s ‘IRON LUNG’ is projected to have earned over $30M domestically by Sunday. The film will have earned over 10X its production budget.

In case some of you are confused: Calling a Latino man a “hot head” is a harmful racial stereotype.

fyi "don't yuck peoples' yum/let people enjoy things" does not apply to generative AI

I just want to point out just how successful this is. Yes, $500K and counting for Trans Lifeline is a big deal on its own, but outside of ONE video, this has ALL been word-of-mouth. One community, gathering together, to make magic for an incredible cause. Gives me faith in my fellow humans.

JD Vance loudly booed at the Winter Olympics today.

There’s a remake of one of my favorite games of all time coming? I mean the Arcade Archives version is right there so I am sceptical…

I made a Kiln Direct for busy people!

This week, Take-Two Interactive shares are down more than 20% despite the company smashing Q3 estimates and reaffirming a November release date for Grand Theft Auto VI. Why? Because the stock market doesn't understand video game development. My latest column: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

If you haven’t played Stacking in 15 years, then it’s time for a replay! (And it’s up on Game Pass, so let’s go!)

if a GAAS puts out an update and there's no one to play it, does it make a sound

After checking it out for about an hour, I can safely say: this is a very special little collection. Yeah, they could've added a few more obscure and some handheld entries, but the presentation is fun, the art gallery is amazing and the games available play super well. Highly recommended 💚

Now *this* is how you get me interested in a train game!

Please listen to Button Boys.

Obsidian shipped three games last year: Avowed, Grounded 2, and Outer Worlds 2. Grounded 2 was a hit, but the two RPGs were not, leading to some self-reflection. How to make games in 3-4 years rather than 6-7? This story may be a case study for the entire industry www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

If only all console manufacturers could be this Doomed or have 'lost momentum' like this. Over 17 million in just the first calendar year is an unreal total.

After finally going back and finishing the story (stopped at chapter 2 years ago), I can say with my full chest that Red Dead Redemption 2 is one of the greatest games, worlds and stories ever created. @pettycommajared.bsky.social was right all along.

This shit hits like a sledgehammer right now. It's not even remotely an exaggeration.

Markiplier’s ’IRON LUNG’ was #1 domestically on its opening day with $9M. The film has already made at least 3X its production budget.

People who make games and the people who really love them want to take care of each other. And that extends to our neighbors in Minnesota. So proud of everyone. Thank you for helping us raise $263,660.

Very, very excited for this! If you live near Brighton and would like to come along and hear the two of us get stuck into the weeds on Keza’s latest dive into the history of Nintendo, grab yourself a ticket.

Bloody hell, a good review of Super Nintendo in the Times. "The upside of MacDonald’s standing is that you won’t find anyone, I don’t think, with a better insight into the nuts and bolts of these games... Here is a book bursting with love." www.thetimes.com/article/cc15...

Okay wow. We're SO CLOSE to 100 reviews. When we get 100, the algorithm sits up and PROPERLY takes notice of us, which will make a *world* of difference. The strongest way right now to support Size Five is to grab a copy and drop a review asap. Your help means everything to me, thank you ❤️

Without the ability to say too much, please understand that $30 for full-cart Switch 2 physicals is not normal, and cannot/will not be the norm. It is "too good to be true" pricing, being price-matched to SW1/PS5. Don't blame those (i.e. everyone) that have to price above this.

Hang in until the gameplay starts at the 0:42 and we promise it's worth it to check out the reveal of Huntdown: Overtime, the upcoming over-the-top pixel-art roguelike prequel to Huntdown. You play a cybernetic rogue cop out to clean up the streets of Detroit in 2084.

The Disney Afternoon Collection officially announced for the Switch + Switch 2, launching February 26. Now includes Goof Troop and Bonkers, with full on-cart physical versions. (Read more at Nintendo Everything)

Folks, I don't know how to tell you this. But you don't HAVE to be weird about video games. You can just be a normal human about them. I swear. You can do it. I believe in you. Yes, even YOU.

Size Five makes games inspired by classic Point 'n' Clicks, and their newest game is here! @timegentleman.bsky.social is one of our Excellent Community Helper People, and is also the Co-Lead Designer and Writer for EARTH MUST DIE. Sending a big congrats on launch your direction, Ben!

If there's anyone playing Earth Must Die, *please* consider leaving a Steam review, you just cannot fathom how much it would help us (also THANK YOU FOR PLAYING <3)

The game we are launching later today has: - An alien orgy - Full voice acting, including Alex Horne, Joel Fry and Ben Starr - Many naughty words - Fully animated like an Adult Swim cartoon - Loads of willies If you don't play it, you're probably an idiot? store.steampowered.com/app/3639780/...

this is so rad

Clarissa explains it all to the DHS Instagram account

Wake up. Make breakfast. Do email. Watch a murder. Go to a party for a 5 year old. Laugh with my daughter. See a different angle of that murder. Hear govt officials slander the victim. Play Barbies with my kid. Feed her dinner. Tear up at that victim reading last honors to a vet. Put kid to bed. USA

Interesting to see how this one turns out - a documentary film "about the SCUMM engine, all the SCUMM games (including the Humongous titles, but obviously focusing more on LucasArts), and SCUMM's cultural influence/legacy". Sign up here to get more info! www.scummdoc.com @scummdoc.bsky.social

Grandpa Simpson voice: They’d hide the toy in the bottom of the cereal, which was pluralised back then. About half the cereal went on the floor in the finding, which was the fun of it. The reflectors showed status. I myself had six reflectors on one wheel, which is how I became King for the summer.

@dringo.bsky.social Hi Chris! Can I ask you for help please? Some friends and I are discussing the potential PS4 to PS5 user migration when GTA 6 comes out (because we're really cool people), and I was wondering what the latest data was around the % of active PS4 users who are yet to do so?

Following yesterday's stock plunge, Ubisoft's market cap is now around half a billion euros. In 2018 it was around 10 billion euros. In eight years, the company has lost around 95% of its value

Please listen to Button Boys.

Was great to see the lovely, talented and fellow Spurs fan @lawoftd.bsky.social on @kindafunnyvids.bsky.social with @gameovergreggy.bsky.social yesterday. Imagine Matt and @garywhitta.bsky.social talking Tottenham on KFGD one day.....

BREAKING: Ubisoft is canceling the Prince of Persia: Sands of Time remake and 5 other games (4 unannounced, 1 mobile). The company says it is also delaying 7 games (including an unannounced project believed to be a Black Flag remake) as part of a larger restructuring.

For the last few weeks, rumors have been circulating that Prince of Persia: Sands of Time was completed and would be released on January 16. In reality, Ubisoft was not happy with the state of the game and decided to cancel it as part of a massive reorganization
