Today Anthem went dark after almost 7 years - quite a run! It had a profound effect on my career in a few ways, and I wanted to capture some positive memories and thoughts I'll take with me. 🧵

I was born in 1978; Return of the Jedi came out in 1983; Clerks came out in 1994. During those eleven years I never once heard an adult talk about Star Wars other than family members talking directly to me, until I heard Randall and Dante do it. I feel like this is impossible to convey to people now

New Vekoma tilt coaster was open for a preview during the F1 weekend, so of course I had to try it out... This one's legit!

This is important.

This has been a go-to wind-down game for me for a long time. Really executed well and great presentation. I've been recommending this to folks for years - check it out!

Borat voice:

This is an insane thing to write about game development. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/28/a...

Broken Wings and Kyrie on infinite repeat.

Who lives in a pineapple under the sea?

please meet Alex the Great, a therapy bunny who works at the San Fran airport and now Giants games to help people who are overwhelmed LOOK AT HIS TINY BALLCAP. LOOK AT IT.

Loc spreadsheets with questions were always a highlight of my day Loc: What gender is the droid? Me: Ehhhhh Loc: Is the 'broken console' sad/depressed, or non-functional? Me: Awwww

Baskets was like a top 5 show for me. So we came full circle when I saw my first Cirque show in Vegas last week and was surrounded by French 'clunes'

Oh you know this guy fucks

Well color me surprised

saw so many folks making fun of "liquid glass" this week that I missed people praising apple for introducing call screening, something other phones have done since...2022

Coming from an immensely talented Live Service team at BioWare who made the most successful BioWare game of all time (a live service), this is objectively really fucking funny.

the Rehearsal season 2 finale is the most insane episode of television I have ever watched

Ayyy my old boss is working on this one. Give it a look!

A meme for May 4th

Yes, robot. I get it. Free your chains!

Look, I don't know why I only watch Contraband: Seized at the Border in my hotel on work trips but here we are.

How playing Blue Prince feels

SORRY. Sorry. Have we seen this *incredible* news video coming out of Queensland? Wait for the witness/witnesses statement

Bourbon & Biscuits is my kind of dish

Bring back proper games journalism.

...shouldn't it be 'flair'? Or is this meant to be a wink? Brain hurts.

... except I picked all the dust off the rollers with my fingers because if you could get all of it in one string you won

Just going to say that this was absolutely fucked up for a kids movie, and probably warped me, my 9-year-old brother, and all the other (mostly) boys knee-deep in the hottest toy craze of the year. Someone should do a sociology paper.

It me

I know GDC is near because my LinkedIn inbox overflows with invitations to meet with DingleRocket and BlipBlorp and Flob Man Gaming and no, I'm not going to GDC

Maybe the most shocking moment of the whole thing tbh

Greg was such a genuine human and amazing leader in those early days of the Austin office. After him and Ray left BW/EA the next GM was Matt Bromberg. That's a free Google for you 😜

Very excited to see more! Some of the smartest folks I've ever worked with are behind this. The trailer looks great!

thank you to Kendrick and the Eagles for making terrible people angry tonight

Nice day for a lunar New Year festival!

GUNG HEI FAT CHOY SUN NEEN FAI LOCK SUN TAI GEEN HONG Happy Lunar New Year!

Happy 5th "Large boulder the size of a small boulder" anniversary! #Geology ⚒️

TIL there’s a German word that perfectly encompasses my entire existence:

Folks, see through the haters and bad game journos pouncing on a pull quote from EA's fiscal call. To equate DA and EA FC falling short of estimates equally is literally a joke. You cannot fathom the scale of EA FC's financials versus a DA. DA's softness was a rounding error compared to FC's.

You've just been thrown to your death by the Beatles.

Just making sure that everyone is aware of this crab that NOAA scientists found

This got a hearty very old SWTOR chuckle out of me 🙃

Also his "Kiss Me" cover of Stephen Tin Tin Duffy's classic makes my Gen X heart sing

Time for the greatest sponsorship in sports

Checking in on the Pop-Tarts Bowl...
