This Super Bowl ad is literally my first time hearing what Mr Beast sounds like. I feel like I lost the biggest game of Whamageddon ever

fantastic halftime show hope it's not immediately followed by some weird robots and a bizarre MAHA ad now let take a big sip of coffee and

coinbase left "am I sexual?" out of the lyrics because jeffrey epstein funded cryptocurrency for the international trade in csam

Every ad for AI has done nothing to show why we would need it. Certainly not a need or use that justifies the money spent on these empty ads

Happy Birthday Mewtwo!!!!

Thank you for, once again, voting for a console that I know and enjoy, but @djstormageddon.com's barely touched. And for giving me an excuse to play Captain Toad again!

Slightly diminish a game. Metal Gear Kinda Stiff.

ICYMI we released our year in review episode which includes @djstormageddon.com’s and @geoffmakesnoise.bsky.social’s top ten games of 2025. Go listen!

The squad is officially headed back to Boston at the end of March for PAX East 2026! Who are we seeing there?!?

Matt & Geoff share their Top Ten games of the year, what they're excited to see in 2026, and where they hope the conversation in games can go in the new year. funandgames.libsyn.com/special-2025...

I hope 2026 is kind to us all

If "How your day's going" was solely based on "How much soup you made", then today was my "Best day this year"

Leave a little space in your January gaming schedule for this one!

Glad I got to talk about the best game ever!

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

Check it out! A new console retrospective EP is out!

PAX Unplugged has come and gone. Filled with puzzles, Magic™, & gaming with friends. We talk about the games we played, the interviews & previews we took part in, and what's different about "just wandering the floor" when the focus is on multiplayer games. funandgames.libsyn.com/special-pax-...

What are the most unhinged ways to go about tackling a video game backlog? Newest to oldest (updated daily)? Lowest to Highest Metacritic score? Most valuable to least valuable? What do you think?

Today is my friendsgiving tradition, dubbed "Vengeancegiving", so people may decompress from however their Thursday may have gone. What are the dishes you wanted to make, but couldn't? What games are you playing to wind down before the manic end of the year begins?

Let me give some insight on this, as a producer in the dub industry who worked with major streamers, who's witnessed first-hand where this push for AI is coming from. tl;dr: Only CEOs want this. Tell them how much you hate it. Be loud, email, call, @, post. You will kill this. 🧵⬇️

PAX Unplugged 2025 Day Three! Last day! Let’s do this! If you see us say hi! @djstormageddon.com @geoffmakesnoise.bsky.social @sarahmoonen.bsky.social

Inspired by a conversation in the hotel elevator

Tired, but caffeinated and ready to game at Day 1 of Pax Unplugged!

Loved my time with Ivalice Chronicles and it reminded me how much I love strategy RPGs

It's Transgender Day of Remembrance and I just want to say that a world without trans people would be a rainbow with many colors missing. We are brighter and more colorful in this world because of trans people, and have lost too many too early. I love you for being more you than most of us can be

RIP to a games industry pioneer and legend, Rebecca Heineman (@burgerbecky.bsky.social) If your unfamiliar, look her up. Her career is like the story of videogames itself.

Don't know how much actual bonking I'm doing here, but I'm having too much fun to care!

If you're in the NYC area, please check out game-design-days.com and see what cool events are happening in the local game dev scene for the next week or so!

Delighted, excited, and humbled to be a part of this incredible group of folks in games media! Keep a lookout for updates as December 18 approaches

Oh hey, remember this bsky post from *checks my watch* 6 days ago? Let's see how it's going now... OH WOW! Who could have seen this coming? Me. I did. I said it. Out loud. Regularly. Constantly. Every single day. www.videogameschronicle.com/news/square-...

It's cool how we keep proving over and over and over again that there's a significant market for narrative-heavy, character-driven, single-player experiences in video games and publishers just categorically refuse to believe us

In my Ivalice Chronicles playthrough I did spread out my grind a little. But sooner or later, the open plains call you back.

Side Quests is back and so is host @scabzilla.superghost.site from @superghost.site! He is a podcaster and Geohound! The game he is talking about today is Grandia II by Game Arts. sites.libsyn.com/94715/side-q...

There are so many poorly remembered games that could needlessly be made available again. And should be.
