Ah, you misunderstand me. When I asked for a "good" anime game, what I really meant was a bizarre, borderline unplayable thing that you need an old GameFaqs forum thread from 2006 to understand. That's what really gets me going.

This is real btw

Sincerely love it whenever Choice emerges from the lab to announce the Kmart cheapie is actually elite

Staytaplay thoughts:

Feels very weird to be back at SGF time and I don’t have to cover anything??

Um, holy shit?

Blue moon tonight!

GREG DAVIES: seems like a kind of a shit task. Everyone just seems like they're going home normally. ALEX HORNE: well before you say that let's have a look at how Odysseus did. cut to panel of AJAX, MENELAUS, AGAMEMNON, and DIOMEDES who are all staring at ODYSSEUS with his head in his hands

I’ve been out of the game for the last six months and have no idea if they just had Copilot spit this revised logo out or if they had someone make it. Either way, I don’t care for it.

NEW — My first true foray into AI haterdom is about how those of us not convinced by AI’s inevitability are a real constituency worthy of a voice. Give it a read:

Bond game great. Campaign probably a few hours too long, but a home run in every other respect. Already Hitman-brained about completing challenges and the Tacsim.

This can’t be a logical way to run a gaming division, by being surface-level reactionary to your biggest fanboys and stuffing a lollipop in their mouths whenever they cry out.

Huge things happening on the Switch 2 lock screen

Furnace used to burn money roaring again after shovelling more money in there

Rockstar management fired 30+ people to try to prevent this and still failed.

Big fan of these First Light post-it notes that read “Allan please add details here”.

Sorry to Connections post but today’s game was a load of pure shit.

These quotes are absolutely spectacular. He can’t disguise his loathing for Naka even slightly

My insta feed flooded with influencers 20 years younger than me who’ve been paid to say they’ve always loved He-Man and he’s just so important to them

The point isn't "if you care about this, why don't you care about everything?" That's how you make sure nobody ever does anything. Movements need priorities and targets. BDS is not a personal purity test. It's a strategic campaign created by Palestinian organizers to focus pressure.

Extremely funny to watch my whole feed say “Wha the fuck” in a hundred different inflections about the Witcher 3 news

Pls have Peter Capaldi voice Paddington

HORRENDOUS

Hadn’t gotten around to reading trough this extremely bleak shit yet blog.google/products-and...

If we just keep creating new companies and moving our IP hoard around, we swear it'll eventually fix everything guys

Over a year ago, I spoke with @rasheedabueideh.bsky.social about Dreams on a Pillow for a piece that was killed before it could be published. I am honored that he was willing to take the time to speak with me again in spite of that and tell me about his beautiful homeland: kotaku.com/upcoming-ste...

it'll never happen, but people need to go to prison for this

INSPECTOR MINTON'S INVESTIGATION FILES: THE CLOWN MURDER CASE

Can’t believe Jack would steal my PC and take it to the park

All the Xbox news lately is like "new CEO says Xbox is in the gaming business" and then people go "wow things have really changed"

So glad I got mentored by real editors.

Rebranding to JAMES. No questions.

In the early days, I once spelled PlayStation as ‘Playstation’ and got a long email from a PR about why the capital S was very important. That distinction is really only important to the marketers, not you as a journo. It’s your style guide. Write it however the hell you want. 🤷

Shouting to be heard over the sound of people buying competing hardware

It's heartbreaking that games as a medium remain out of reach for people telling the stories worth telling most. www.aljazeera.com/video/newsfe...

This looks like a cheapo Turtle Beach or something wtf

It's always fun to check the prices on the 60GB launch models to see who knows ball and who doesn't

This really is tremendous leadership from Freeplay, and the kind of thing that has been glaringly missing from the games sector. This stuff is really important, so games people, do not let this moment go to waste.

Wild to see the player counts on the two Star Wars modes Epic dropped into Fortnite this month. Galactic Siege, which might as well be SW Battlefront, shows 1.4K people playing on PS5 right now. Droid Tycoon, an idle game that barely respects your time, has 27.4K concurrents.

7 months to go

The nice thing about games is that there’s five million of them released every week that you’ll never be able to finish. If you’re annoyed by one sucking up air you can just play a Tales game, a DOOM mod by a guy with an undiscovered form of OCD or a city builder where you make homes for gay mice.

I've started as the ABC’s national AI tech reporter, after 5 unreal years at Crikey. AI is one of the biggest stories of our time. The sheer amount of money, influence and hype makes it ripe for critical, nuanced and accessible reporting. Got a story about Aussies and AI? email: [email protected]

Listening to my interview records back and willing myself to shut the hell up

If only there was a game coming soon that was set in Australia about Australian issues with an Australian cast. 👀
