I don't have faith that Microsoft would do anything smart currently, but if they were smart, they would eat the cost of disc drives and ship Helix with one in lieu of Playstation dropping physical media support.

This scene is more relevant now than it has ever been. "You could afford to make less, make less." www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Rww...

I think what a vocal minority of people are not understanding with the physical media conversation is that people make the trade with pc gaming and Steam because it's flatly cheaper than the other platforms/consoles. That doesn't exist on the first party marketplaces.

Seeing the outpouring of support for physical media. It's felt like for years I've been one of the only people shouting to keep buying things you love in physical form so that way you always have it. I hope people keep this energy up to force companies to stop taking these things away from you.

It PAINS me to say it but @dyspocito.bsky.social has been and will continue to be right.

As if I needed another reason to abandon the Playstation ecosystem, I guess Sony made that decision easy for me.

btw I was at the BAFTA Young Game Designers event this weekend and it felt like Godot was far and away the engine that the developers aged 15-18 were using the most

The KIDS Act [containing KOSA] has passed the House This sucks, but its not the end. It still has to pass through the Senate committee and then be voted on by the Senate itself Please continue contactimg your Senators and demanding they oppose the KIDS Act & KOSA www.congress.gov/members/find...

Alison Luhrs still being at Bungie is the only bit of hope I have for more Destiny one day.

It's very strange to me having been a physical media defender for literally my entire life seeing more and more people come around to my way of thinking. I guess that's what happens when you inevitably get fucked over by the digital storefront ecosystem one too many times.

Once again. Stop using Sticker Mule. Your money literally, not figuratively, LITERALLY, paved another fascist's way into politics. Need stickers? Get 'em from @wildeprints.com and keep your money in the fandom and away from fascists.

At this point I just have to believe that Sony executives have no idea what’s been happening at PlayStation to make a statement like this only a day after their biggest live service developer was gutted.

False equivalence is fascist, no matter who says it.

The pain of not wanting more layoffs in the gaming industry but wanting GTA6 to fail (it won't) so badly to force a reset on everything. Outside of Terf Wizards Legacy, there's no game the represents all of the evils of triple a gaming better than GTA6 does.

Great economic indicator that one the things I'm going to buy on Prime Day is rice.

We’re just normal men

Btw, since I'm not planning on stopping Destiny 2 anytime soon, if any gamers pick the complete edition up during the upcoming steam sale, I'm absolutely always down to play.

One of the highest rated Sonic games ever currently costs less than a McChicken

i think if you dress like this, you deserve to do a little corruption

A Black man with the surname Freeman scored for the USA on Juneteenth in a home World Cup match.

Rent: $850 Entertainment: $100 Groceries: $200 Strawberries: $3800 Transportation: $50 Utilities: $150 Someone good at economics please help me with my budget. My family is dying.

There's a breed of content that's been filling my algorithms that I'd describe as "intellectual doomerism" that is absolute trash, just some of the most abysmal dogshit saying you're justified in no longer giving a shit about anything. Just an utterly vile sentiment.

If you haven't played the trilogy yet, now's the perfect time.

One day I’m going to get more than four fucking hours of sleep, but apparently that’s not today.

Inventing a new MtG draft format called the Mamdani draft format. You draft packs of three different sets that take place in the plane of New York.

I'm pretty sure I could become a trillionaire if I also started with a small loan of a million dollars and all the free government money I asked for because I posted epic memes.

There are just way too many games and movies coming out this year that I want to see and play. It's so stacked I can barely keep track of everything.

Thinking about the beef roast that's waiting for me when I get home.

One of my favorite games of all time is on sale for less than a burger.

NEW VIDEO: More effusive praise for Monument of Triumph, which is even better than I thought it would be www.youtube.com/watch?v=efPZ...

that KH Switch collection pack thing sure has some interesting cover art interesting choice to give Donald a mismatched number of fingers on each hand, and a beak that absorbs into itself

It’s 2011. An Ocarina of Time and a Starfox remake are coming to the latest Nintendo system It’s 2026. An Ocarina of Time and Starfox remake are coming to the latest Nintendo system

We’ve been passionately working on this for a while, and we’re so proud to finally share it with the world: Velan Studios is the developer of Star Fox™! Collaborating with Nintendo and bringing Fox McCloud and crew to Nintendo Switch 2 is truly an honor. #StarFox #NintendoSwitch2

I don't typically like math rock, but this debut EP from Forty Winks I'm listening to is pretty great, ngl.

I'll add that it's so nice to see Anna Farris and Regina Hall back. They're still so funny together.

another older image I'm still happy with! I bet you can guess who dat is

no no you don’t understand, we only used AI for the part of the production pipeline where we didn’t want to pay employees, it’s different

Going to be a depressing day tomorrow. Can’t believe my game is ending like this. I’ll still be playing for a long time still afterwards, but knowing this is the end is beyond words. I’m going to miss wondering what came next.

I really don’t think it’s that hard to reject games that use ai for concepting. It’s still replacing actual artistry and artists, so just don’t play them? It’s not hard at all, actually.

#starfox Not sure if he's a fan yet...

"What is the charge? Eating a meal? A succulent Japanese meal!?"

Someone go check on Max.

I feel like this result is somehow worse than getting High Unc.

I don’t feel very wanted.
