I’m curious to ask; what is the first skateboarding game (or game with skateboarding in it) you ever played?

Bold. I love the design of this book.

We’ve actually got a little while to go before we hit 4k followers but it would be cool. Tell ur friends about us!

This is news to me. Wow.

I love Mohawk Storm.

New zines! I didn’t know they’d be so… small! Not that there’s anything wrong with that! Digging in this afternoon (after I do some work on my own zines, actually). Check out @mathewkumar.com to get your own, there are digital options and a physical ones still in stock.

Listening to the new @hdtgm.bsky.social, and hearing that Jason is going to be in the Criminal show makes me want to see it even more, and I wasn’t sure that was possible. Brubaker and @seanphillips.bsky.social are my favorite creators. Hopefully it’s out soon!

It’s going to be TWELVE years between releases. This is wild. The amount of money this series makes, that is far too much time from a business standpoint and clearly mismanagement issues. The more time it takes creates more expectations for fans. I don’t see this being a real innovation.

Wait… can I buy eggnog soon?

What a crazy signing. What not just have EVERYONE in your shop all at once? Sure. That works. This is a rad shop, too. It’s right down the hill from my brothers house. I wish it was my LCS.

Yo, @espn.com and YouTubeTV. Figure it out. I want to watch basketball games. If my “alternative” options are all I have, why pay for any of your stuff?

I heard a familiar melody on the air while reading Batman #1 before a flight. I wrote about it, and hope you'll follow me on a short journey about Bat-aesthetics, writers and visual styles, and why Batman is in its Jorge Jimenez era.

🤖🌟 Issue 6 of APWOT is live on Kickstarter! 🌟🤖 Featuring a beautiful lenticular cover of Astro Bot marking both our feature interview with the game’s director, Nicolas Doucet, and the 30th anniversary of PlayStation. Get in there! 💫 kck.st/4i1GAHT 💫

Dynasty Warriors Origins came out at the start of the year and is a solid starting point. it puts a more RPG, choices-matter spin on the Three Kingdoms story, but leans heavy into the drama and intrigue of its battles. the big charges and troop movements are a blast.

The Back to the Future shirt is blowing my mind.

I don’t want to put any writers out of work, but there are hundreds of folks who want to actually play and understand what they are reviewing, not attempting to do whatever this is.

Y'all, I know two hours is a big time commitment, but this panel I arranged and hosted last month is one of the most important things I've ever done for video game history. The launch of the NES is a crazier story than most people realize, and my guests were extremely generous with their memories.

So many new faces! Welcome! We are a podcast talking about our love of games, the evolution of gaming as an artistic medium & chats with folks from within or even outside the industry. Also minisodes where each ep a different host talks about a game they love & why they love it. funandgamespod.com

hit a milestone! but I haven't worked on any videos since a few months ago. can't get the motivation to do anything, feels like I'm missing the opportunity. anyone have thoughts on hiring a person to produce more videos? I know what I want and have the graphics/script but I hate editing. worth it?

I was quite happy with this.

I will say, baseball is boring… But watching extra innings of game 7 of the World Series has things getting interesting.

NBA Cup games begin tonight. Did y'all notice the little year decal on the Bucks and Lakers court, as they were past winners? Cool detail. I love these courts. www.nytimes.com/athletic/676...

Another band I love announcing a tour with no dates in Arizona… This state sucks for a lot of reasons, but the omission of live music is maybe the worst part.

I’m oddly in the opposite boat. I’ve returned to the glorious Nintendo with the Switch 2, and have only played it probably 4 or 5 times total…

Watching Australian streamers play Mortal Kombat Legacy Kollection is very funny because they'll talk about beloved characters like Baraker and Kitaner

This game is rad. I played it at PRGE and the sound effects and presentation are tight. I thought it was great.

That image looks like an SNL skit with Cheri Oteri and Will Ferrell. These people are clowns.

It’s here! I’m already diving into the documentary feature, and it’s already great… time for bed, but you better believe I’m getting up as early as I can to get more Kombat. @digitaleclipse.bsky.social

All right everyone, it's finally ALIVE!! I've been dropping hints about the GIANT SECRET VIDEO PROJECT that I've been working on in the background for two years now. If you're willing & able to support this ridiculous project, existing videos, and plenty more to come, I'd sincerely appreciate it!!

I decided to back this for the decent price. I read a review of it, and having an upscalable 4:3 screen to play some portable PSX and DC games will be nice. www.indiegogo.com/en/projects/...

So October 26th 2000 was a Thursday. In Southern California, it was a lightly drizzly day. I had school, but my older brother had already dropped out. He was tasked with picking up my PS2, and at school I was so worried something was going to go wrong. Hours later, I’d get home, and there it was.

The internet is worse than before, but it doesn't have to be. I chose to lead by example and made a forum I would want to use. We've got signatures, we've got gifs, we've got chatrooms, we've got a zero tolerance policy for bigotry. And if we're very lucky, we've got you. theunderscore.xyz

Yikes. What’s it taste like?

This cover is… ugly

Did everyone who’s excited for Air Riders play Air Ride? Are we looking at the same thing?

Hey, all! Two months into striking, things are getting… uncomfortably tight. I’m so proud of doing my part for collective action with my BCGEU colleagues ✊, but my bank account is growling and my bills are grinning. If you’ve enjoyed my work and have the means to help out: PayPal.me/aidanmoher
