This story is infinitely more important than GTA getting delayed. Don't let me catch you moaning about waiting longer for a video game if you're not mad about why it happened.

2025: Pretty cool year for games and baseball and nothing else

This was me for 4 years. Everyone liked me despite being the worst receptionist ever born.

Have a nice fall

Sneakily stalked another player in Arc Raiders, but instead of ambushing them in bullets, I shot them with mutual trust and respect

Did not expect one of the best paragraphs I’d read about baseball would come from an Irish newspaper www.irishexaminer.com/sport-column...

If you usually live your life thinking baseball is too slow or boring, it's time to reassess. It's the greatest, weirdest, most beautiful game you can possibly care about.

My team won. Not convinced the better team won. Blue Jays were undeniable.

There's just no way

Best sport

Throwing up

This game is so over, which is sad, but on the bright side we will all be free

Just because you make a truce with randos in Arc Raiders, doesn't mean they won't try to screw you over. I rescued this guy from some robos, and they thanked me by trying to slam the elevator door in my face!

Here it is. The absolute strategy beast that is Europa Universalis 5. My review: www.pcgamer.com/games/strate...

With multiple conflicting interviews around Arc Raiders' use of AI, I tried to pick apart what is and isn't "generative," how much that distinction matters ethically, and the tension between today's efficiency tools and tomorrow's eliminated jobs.

If you've watched the whole Dodger season, the last two bad games don't look like the Blue Jays being particularly amazing, it looks like the several stretches of 2025 where the Dodgers just forgot how to play baseball. It's why they had to climb out of a wild card round. Oh well.

Damn, did PC Gamer always go this hard? www.pcgamer.com/gaming-indus...

Don't worry, the Dodgers will feel much more rested and good at baseball after a long flight to another country

"We never validated our core assumptions before investing heavily in solutions. The truth is that gamers already had the solution to their problems, and they weren't going to switch platforms just because a new one was available," a former Amazon exec said earlier this year.

No rangefinder required

I don't think they should be allowed to do that

We have to go to work tomorrow now?

I think if you intentionally walk a guy four times in one game that should count as a home run

Starting to think a Greek mythology punishment might be in play here. The game is doomed to continue until the Blue Jays are brave enough to pitch to Ohtani.

Kershaw tried so hard to choke away a bases loaded walk and Lukes was like no sir you are a base ball legend I will not let you do this to yourself again

I turned on the tv to watch this game 5 hours ago

Not pitching to Ohtani is cowardly and no fun at all. Smart move.

it’s very smart of the Dodgers to keep running the Shohei Ohtani home run play

Yoshinobu. Yamamoto.

Replaying Halo CE and remembering the last time it got a "glow up." Who needs darkness in a night level when you can just make everything blue.

So Call of Duty: Warzone's focus is Call of Duty: Warzone?

Ah well

This ump bleeds maple

It's hard to articulate to normal people why the Halo remake looks so bland. Maybe the simplest way is to ask: Does it make you feel the same way? Evoke the same soft, somber intrigue of an alien place? To me, the remake is a postcard. It looks real, but since when is that the definition of better?

I really enjoy our tradition of publishing a new Top 100 list every year. Each year it makes people mad or happy in new ways and reflects something of the state of PC gaming—it's cool that Dwarf Fortress and Caves of Qud are both in the top 10 this year.

Baseball!

"Mascots were fun. I realize rallying behind brands like they're something more than capital machines is backwards, and 'console war' rhetoric has contributed to the worst kind of fandom in our hobby, but there existed a way to be normal about it all." www.pcgamer.com/games/halo/x...
