Routine is a huge win for sci-fi horror fans who love clicky-clacky buttons, aka me. I want to put its film-grain visuals in my mouth and crunch them between my teeth. Cheers for the existential dread @routinegame.bsky.social.

Oppy, I've joined a cult! Pacific Drive's Whispers in the Woods DLC has me flinching at crash-test dummies and the radio, but it's okay, because my station wagon screams whenever anything tries to grab it. @ironwood.bsky.social knocked it out of the park.

Played Silksong. No "SHAW!" 6/10 www.pcgamesn.com/hollow-knigh...

Good thread.

I finished Date Everything! and have a hot take on how this portrays our relationships with objects.🔥From commodities to labor, this dating sim has a lot to say about things. How does this relate to gijinka and our fondness for things? Read more here. 👇 nicollelamerichs.com/2025/07/06/d...

My post-mortem for FBC Firebreak covers the 2008 financial crisis, Halo ODST, Hotel California, and how to become a Big Daddy in Bioshock. Pretty proud of this one. 🔥📉

Shout out to Rhys Darby for playing the Terraria day theme before his set and sending me into a spiral trying to work out where I'd heard it before

Played Nightreign. Didn't love it. Bon appetit. www.pcgamesn.com/elden-ring-n...

Still on my remaster bullshit. If you're playing Onimusha 2 with analog controls, you're not playing Onimusha 2. www.pcgamesn.com/onimusha-2/r...

Remasters are weird because I get to review my favourite games from 20 years ago. "I had my worries that we'd end up with the videogame equivalent of Cecilia Giménez getting her hands on a 19th-century fresco." www.pcgamesn.com/oblivion-rem...

it's amazing how I can track my ADHD flare-ups by how many tabs I have open at the end of the day

Thank you so much to Hoyoverse for the #gifted Charlotte Tilbury x Genshin Impact skincare collection! ✨ @genshinimpact-en.bsky.social

lets go girls

(brad pitt voice) whats in the baaaaawx twitch.tv/stottybairn

I have SO much to play and write so tell me why I just bought the God Eater trilogy on Steam like I have any time at all to play it (spoiler: it's bc it's like 90% off and £7 for the lot, BUT STILL).

Napoli ➡️ Ischia 💚🤍❤️

Had the absolute pleasure of editing @tjohnlinward.bsky.social's Nine Sols retrospective. One of those pieces that's a privilege to read before everyone else. Take a look! www.pcgamesn.com/nine-sols/in...

Bored with the sunshine? Why not listen to me rattling on about games with @stottybairn.bsky.social and there's Ben F from Rebellion to talk #Atomfall. Caution- this edition contains egregious mentions of @jonathanlhoward.bsky.social and user caution is advised. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p...

Heeeere it is! I'm over on BBC Radio 5 Live with @adamrosserradio.bsky.social talking BAFTA Game Awards and Atomfall! 📻 www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p...

Did a cool thing :) watch this space

WHEW, just caught up on all my notifications! Thank you so much for the love, you're all so sweet. 💖

What do you MEAN an amazing opportunity has been sat in my Twitter message requests for TWO WHOLE DAYS??? 😃😃😃😃

Chuffed to bits - I've been promoted to Senior Staff Writer at @pcgamesn.com!! 🧡🤍🖤

Atomfall is this year's Pacific Drive: a survival RPG that's familiar but fresh, with enough mystery to keep you dialled in to its northern charm. www.pcgamesn.com/atomfall/rev...

Much Ado About Nothing at Drury Lane is an acid pink delight. Tom Hiddleston slutdrops a cardboard cutout of Hayley Atwell as Captain America. Margaret is an enby diva that belts '90s love songs into a bedazzled microphone. Pink confetti rains from the ceiling throughout. So many fun choices. 💖

Ken @keny2ken.bsky.social is THE authority on Monster Hunter as far as I'm concerned, and this stonking final preview for Wilds proves it. Clear your schedule for this one, hunters. www.pcgamesn.com/monster-hunt...

My favourite monster in the Monster Hunter Wilds beta? Tony, the rando who joined one of my hunts. Absolute beast with a Great Sword. Big up Tony.

Went into Ninja Gaiden 2 Black expecting a Very Serious Action Game. Got a dude with a fat ass fighting a butterfly on the Statue of Liberty instead. www.pcgamesn.com/ninja-gaiden...

What's worse than the PSN outage? The painful reminder that the PSN hack was 14 years ago and you are older than time itself.

I don't know what's going on in Wuthering Waves anymore and at this point I'm too afraid to ask

🎮 BViG is excited to partner with GDC 2025 for a scholarship program! Black creatives in gaming can apply for a GDC 2025 All Access Pass! Meet mentors and start networking! Apply below and join us at the biggest game dev event! Deadline is Feb 17th @ 11:59pm ET⤵️ forms.gle/4oE5r3b1vugJ...

Between Pacific Drive and Keep Driving, car roguelikes have me by the throat. I don't even have a driver's license.

Keep Driving came out today. If you're not sure why you should play it, check out the hedge porn collection in my trunk.

Willa never misses.

I still can't believe the Elden Ring Nightreign beta test is on Valentine's Day weekend. FromSoft really just called us all maidenless right to our faces.

Watching insecure straight men cry about an optional homosexual romance in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2

Citizen Sleeper 2 made the shortlist of games that made me cry. It finds hope in human connection despite an unjust world, and offers a poignant reminder that it's not enough to survive; we also have to live.

No one told me Ninja Gaiden is the Tom of Finland of video games.

Lots to say about this one. Watch this space.

ahem HYPER LIGHT BREAKER!!!!!!

Good.

which is the most misunderstood literary theory death of the author or the hero's journey vote now on your phones

Right, we need an answer to the real dilemma of our modern time. What is the best shortbread shape? The shortbread meta, if you will.

2025's backlog clear-out is starting off strong

Allegory of late-stage capitalism aside, Squid Game proves how much we'd benefit as a society if we held an adults-only Sports Day.

Receiving a 2024 year in review email from a UK train app on 3rd January 2025 is the most accurate summary of my experience with trains in this country to date.

this diva should've shipped with a wide load warning label

Only just realised the Steam sale ends today not tomorrow 😳 A very quick smash'n'grab.
