My youngest calls inside jokes “house memes”

Here is a collection of pro IDF and genocide denial tweets she’s made

Just want you to know that when I asked Geoff why he gave the silent treatment to an open letter written by his own "future of games" program (& co-signed by 3000+ industry peers), he replied: "Because that's my show and nobody gets to tell me how I should use my platform". 💀💀💀

Here’s my Arc Raiders review — best multiplayer game of 2025 imo www.espn.co.uk/gaming/story...

Stop having takes

Please follow and support what they do next, as all three of them are tremendous talents who deserve the very best. @funnelchest94.bsky.social @epicswitzer.bsky.social @hallafyre.bsky.social No matter what they end up doing, they're going to kick ass and do themselves proud.

Really shortsighted, this. But it’s not surprising because the staff there are constantly trying to write quality stuff while management pushes ridiculous quotas and the bean counters involve themselves in editorial decisions. It’s why I left four years ago. Thought I could change things, couldn’t.

Oh, by the way: I am the host of this on Friday! Please come along for my chat with the cast & director of the FF7Rs. As you'd expect, I can guarantee a level of nerdy deep dive that might not always occur on such panels...

It’s actually somehow way worse than this screenshot suggests if you look at the site. Mad that they’re still supported with opportunities for actual games, but maybe people just aren’t aware.

The Post laid off seemingly the remaining of their liberal-leaning staff members on Opinion last Thursday, when some of them were observing Yom Kippur. from @oliverdarcy.bsky.social for Status status.news/p/washington-post-opinion-cuts-adam-oneal

Excited to start Just Us, a podcast about the @warriors-nba.bsky.social and the culture it has created in the Bay Area. First episode is live on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify. Give a listen, share, and subscribe if you can! YoTube youtu.be/EPAEtiyMAl8?... RSS: feeds.libsyn.com/594825/rss

Due to redundancies I am now looking for work! I have 5 years of experience as a 3d artist. I am primarily looking for full time positions in studio or remote but open to other options. Any reposts are appreciated! 🙏 Portfolio: www.artstation.com/jomperr Linkedin: www.linkedin.com/in/perssonjo...

Spent over a week reviewing Baby Steps because at some point I realised it was art. A lot of critics got it wrong with this one, honestly. www.dbltap.com/reviews/baby...

I’m an artist

Avalanche is closing its Liverpool studio and laying off a portion of its global workforce following Xbox’s cancellation of Contraband. www.dbltap.com/news/avalanc...

NEW: Roblox has been called out in an open letter published by Women in Games, Out Making Games, and BAME in Games for introducing a new 'Sensitive Issues' content descriptor that treats human rights—such as marriage equality and reproductive rights—as "debatable rather than fundamental."

They won’t let me use my Hideo Kojima credit card because his name is all over it

I wasn’t a huge fan of Tsushima, but Ghost of Yotei is a massive improvement in every area. www.dbltap.com/reviews/ghos...

I spoke to Sucker Punch about inspirations, spending time with Ainu, capturing the majesty of Mount Yotei, and sprinkling more variety and surprises into Ghost of Yotei. www.dbltap.com/features/gho...

Silent Hill f is excellent. Elevated horror where everything deepens your understanding of the story and each new run adds layers. www.dbltap.com/reviews/sile...

Oh my god the madmen did it, it's literally Silent Hill: When They Cry

Wish my name wasn’t Kirk today.

The process of dialogue writing is a bit like when you think of a really good comeback like three hours after you’ve had an argument.

While the fucking US is making being trans and autistic illegal. Just know that at least one level in all Dishonored games and DLC (yes even that one) was designed by an autistic trans woman. Daud. Timsh. Clockwork Mansion. Bank Job. Autistic trans girl shit. Even without that, I deserve to exist.

I spoke to Pete Hines about his 24 years at Bethesda — the highs and the lows, his biggest regrets (canvas bags), the state of the industry, and more. www.dbltap.com/features/24-...

My Hellraiser: Revival preview is, I think, the first time I’ve written the words “cuckolded by a corridor”. www.dbltap.com/features/hel...

NEW: Do you know those "AI Overview" responses that appear above search results when you Google for things? Last week, I chatted with a trio of game developers who proved to me that Google's AI kept giving players false info about their game My story: www.gamefile.news/p/google-ai-...

Here’s an interview with some of the devs behind Blood of the Dawnwalker, a vampire RPG from ex-Witcher people. I’ve now seen the same mission played four different ways, and they told me there are even more variations. www.dbltap.com/features/blo...

I chatted to some of the people behind Silent Hill f about its themes, story, and setting. Really interesting stuff imo. www.dbltap.com/features/sil...

Here’s my Metal Gear Solid Delta review. www.dbltap.com/reviews/meta...

also i hate talking about this because every time i do it gets picked up somewhere, somehow and i get harassed for weeks but whatever, man. i'm really proud of the work we put into this, the research and the care and the nuance, and i will continue to share it. www.ign.com/articles/how...

CORMAC MCCARTHY: He never sleeps. He says that he will never die. He dances in light and in shadow and he is a great favorite. He never sleeps, the judge. He is dancing, dancing. He says that he will never die. JOE ROGAN: sure. I've met guys like that

So many people have messaged me saying they missed out on this, asking if I'm going to print more, so I'm going to print more. Listing is back up on the Etsy page if you want a physical copy!

Wildgate got half a million wishlists during Steam Next Fest but its all-time player peak since launch is under 8k. Doesn’t add up to me. You owe it to yourself to check out one of the best multiplayer games of the past few years. www.dbltap.com/reviews/wild...

People are sleeping on Wildgate. Some of the most fun I’ve had online in ages.

When I was a kid and I could barely get a couple of hours of screentime per day because we shared a TV, I spent most of my time getting pissed on White Lightning on a park.

Sorry. I can’t promise this is the last thing on that bellend Doc dude because he’s pretty much openly trying to wreck someone’s career by insinuating they’re an abuser and he’s dropped all attempts at even trying to obscure who that is now and it’s fucking disgusting to see.

This answer might as well say "Off the Grid is not an NFT game. Just kidding, Off the Grid is an NFT game."

Platforms that don't want NFT games on their service should also extend that to games that strip the blockchain garbage out for one platform but leave it in everywhere else. Allowing a game that's effectively an ad for off-site financial dealings isn't much better.

genuinely really inspirational, I fucked my back at the gym and have only been able to do stretching and feel like a total failure for it but the man bam came back from the alcohole to be able to skate again so I'm gonna keep trying to touch my toes
