Anyone who read the Uncharted 2 chapter in VGOTY will know my exact thoughts on this lmao

Sean Penn is such a world class freak in One Battle After Another

Fine, it's been a few years, I'll give Fortnite some more money

Sony's really over here just building its own little Marvel universe on PlayStation www.pcmag.com/news/who-nee...

Hades II really clicked for me when I viewed it as Tears of the Kingdom to Hades' Breath of the Wild. Having an entirely new additional map really helped!

love that this is a real thing

exclusive Nathan Fielder DLC for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 on PS5

We couldn't agree more! @jordanwminor.bsky.social bsky.app/profile/rogu...

I still want to see what other worlds Supergiant Games can conjure, but Hades II is so masterful I can't begrudge them going back to the well. Check out my full review on PCMag! www.pcmag.com/reviews/hade...

I've been playing Baby Steps! Will have something written soon-ish hopefully!

I'm lowkey astonished just how much @himynameiszack.bsky.social truly adored Silent Hill f. Check out his 5-star review on @pcmag.com www.pcmag.com/reviews/sile...

It's fine and whatever to criticize writing and this will never bother me, but y'all know we can read it when you just indiscriminately insult IGN or the people who work there right

Some day Nintendo fans will understand that Nintendo treats its universes as piles of beloved music and iconography to be remixed and recontextualized into fun new games and not an interconnected linear narrative linked by causality But it is not this day

or better yet, BUY HER BOOK !! "The Staff Designer: Grow, Influence, and Lead as an Individual Contributor" is a book teaching anyone and everyone who is interested in moving to the next level as a designer 🎨 📖 - rosenfeldmedia.com/books/the-st...

My only Fortnite skins are Black Manta and "We're Suing Apple" Man so I think it's okay if I buy two more

Hey! You! it’s my wife’s birthday

Super Mario Galaxy 2 is such a fantastic game, and that’s still the case on Switch 2. A brief hands-on from me (and maybe a little tease of my next book) www.pcmag.com/news/i-playe...

imagine if Italy was real

I've found the reaction to console pricing news a little odd at times this year because, like, it's tariffs, man. The stuff is expensive because of tariffs. Trying to fit it into a broader narrative of why these companies are making bad decisions feels a little off idk!

Glad these Sonic kart racers seem good but man imagine if they tried Sonic R again and actually pulled it off

VIDEO GAME OF THE YEAR, my book, is one of the best video game history books around linktr.ee/jordanwminor

Mario vs Sonic discourse in 2025 (because of kart racers) is so funny

TFW you’re writing a book about Super Mario Galaxy and they just tweeted it out

Me: I wonder if anyone ever made a Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee spiritual successor on Switch? I loved that on GameCube back in the day GigaBash: We literally have Godzilla DLC, and run way better on Switch 2 for free

Checking out this new DK Island DLC, it’s so great they made Donkey Kong 64 but good

The Rehearsal season 2 isn’t just a great season of TV. It might save lives www.cnn.com/2025/09/09/u...

this is so Bionicle-coded (complimentary)

Absolutely jam-packed Nintendo Direct. Didn't even have room to mention Hades 2 in my recap. Super Mario Galaxy remains undefeated (look out for my book!) The Nintendo Switch is so cool www.pcmag.com/news/mario-m...

“The Soulslike and Metroidvania genres that Silksong is attempting to bind together are fundamentally at odds with each other, with the necessary staples of each actively damaging the other half to end up with a lesser whole”

September marks the 40th anniversary of Super Mario Bros., so the Nintendo Direct was heavy on Mario news.

The Urbz: Sims in the City

"Art has never been one thing, and neither has arts criticism, and Art of Vengeance is a forceful reminder of how games need to be approached and discussed on their own terms." vital lesson that I think smart and well-meaning game critics often forget killer piece from @garrettmartin.bsky.social

i haven’t played Silksong yet so this isn’t a take about that game specifically, but i kinda don’t love the recent infusion of masocore/souls-esque high difficulty stuff into metroidvanias. just not really what i want from those games

Fun concept: gisnep.com/doomscroll/

I really disliked Star Wars Outlaws at launch but between the great Switch 2 port, fixes to the awful stealth, and fact that I'm on a post Andor-high it's like a whole new game for me lmao

my most doomer game crit take by far is that asking the average person to play a difficult game for the sake of some promised artistic payoff is such a bigger and more obnoxious ask than watching a challenging movie or reading a dense book
