We're giving away the MMO 7+ mouse from MadCatz, the next generation of its legendary mouse, over on the old @mmorpg.com , now through the 22nd!

Democracy is when voters choose their leaders. Autocracy is when leaders choose their voters.

As a life long Las Vegan, I laughed way too hard when Macauley Culkin said, with zero irony, that he and his legion were going to build “Caesar’s Palace” in the holy land that is Vegas in the Fallout show.

We live!

Tonight, at 7:30ish PT, I will be doing something I've been setting up to do for an age now: Stream Gamecube games. Starting with one of my top 5 games of all time - Eternal Darkness. Twitch.tv/lorelore or youtube.com/lotrlore

The Yuko the Trivial lyrics from @coheedandcambria.bsky.social are speaking to me today:

The most enduring image from that State of Play

God of War trilogy remake is the game you make when 12 live service projects didn't work out

"If they weren't holding me back right now" Sir, no one is fucking touching you

I must be the only journalist in our industry who couldn't care less about MSG collection, but I'm happy for y'all.

"Internal feedback on Highguard prior to its reveal "was quite positive," Sobel wrote: There was, apparently, a widespread expectation that the game was a sure-fire hit." Getting playtests and mock reviews done by external partners can be a really good idea.

Foghorn Leghorn Musou

Relevant right now. youtu.be/miomuSGoPzI?...

No joke, this Rayman re-release looks like it's running on RetroArch.

At least they are doing playtests.

Battleborn released in 2016, got updates for around a year or so, and the servers ran until 2021.

Everytime I hear George Michael sing I get goosebumps. And then I get sad knowing he was gone way too soon. music.apple.com/us/album/eve...

DOT FUCKING HACK IN THE YEAR OF OUR LORD 2026!?!

I think the real losers tonight are the Minnesota Vikings

Legion of Boom, v2.0

Sports reporter with NBC News reporting that the couple in Bad Bunny’s halftime show got married for real

They sang “American Idiot”

Alright I’m starting to feel bad for the Patriots

In case anyone forgot or didn't understand the reference www.wgbh.org/news/2017-10...

This is a control mirror of a game

That Dunkin Donuts commercial was so bad, the people of Boston should dump all their iced coffee in the harbor.

multiple boos at this bar for the coinbase reveal, incredible

Using the clean edit of Backstreet's Back for a fucking crypto commercial is grounds for a violent revolution

Still can’t get over how cartoonishly racist you have to be to create your own, certainly less watched, halftime show.

It is fun watching the Patriots flounder

Together, we raised over $600,000 for @translifeline.org this year. From the bottom of my heart, I'm so grateful. We have come together to say to our trans friends and family that they are loved and that they are not alone. Trans rights are human rights. When we gather together, we can make Magic.

This is one of the most humbling and awesome things i get to work on every year and the outpouring of support from the community rules so hard. We've raised OVER 2 MILLION for @translifeline.org in the five years we've been doing this, help us make this the best one ❤️

Reminder: Today through Sunday, you can trade all weekend to keep contributing to the fundraiser, we are donating all trade fees collected to the TCC Trans Lifeline fundraiser! If donating directly, reach out to us for free CS Premium! Any donation gets you 1 month, donations of $50 get 1 year!

The past month I've been reviewing Ayaneo's latest retro handheld, the Pocket Vert. And it's good. Great even, though it might be a bit more powerful than people expect given the form factor. www.mmorpg.com/hardware-rev...

Tolarian Community College’s Annual Trans Lifeline Fundraiser Has Raised Over $450,000 So Far @tolariancommunitycollege.com

Finally got the stream working on Twitch, so we are a go...finally.

Okay Take 3

Welp, I accidentally deleted the folder with all my overlay files/animations when I meant to only delete the plugin I was using. FML.

Trying a thing, seeing if I have my OBS set up properly to stream some retro games on original hardware. Come tell me how bad my audio levels are while I play some original Final Fantasy VII. twitch.tv/lotrlore

While reporting this, I had something happen that's never happened. A comms rep for one of the co's disputed my reporting and said what I was telling them was untrue because it was not in Grok, xAI's chatbot. I was looking directly at the files. And this person was using AI to challenge the truth.

"Why do you like Magic so much?" *Gestures broadly at this fundraiser:

I'd like to throw in this Pro Tour Jace, the Mind Scultpor promo into @tolariancommunitycollege.com's prize pool! You can donate to Give.translifeline.org in multiples of $4 for a chance to win one of the prizes and help support our trans friends and family through these hard times 🫡

A friend came over and was just shaking his head at all my controllers*. This isn’t too many, right? *(Not pictured: two DualSense, an N64, 3 Victrix fight sticks, a Hitbox, and a few others I’m forgetting)

New @eveonline.com Directors' Letter outlines what's to come in 2026, including several major expansions and a new approach to overarching storylines aimed at better approachability for newcomers.

Folks, please retweet this. Trump, Noem, and the rest are lying everywhere about what ICE is doing in MN. We have to do everything we can to make sure the country has a clear picture of what is going on.

I wanted to love these so bad, especially as a cheaper alternative to the MRB AI glasses. And what the Rokids offer is legit great. The problem? They fundamentally fail at being sunglasses, at least for me. www.mmorpg.com/hardware-rev...
