I think we should stop using the word "hallucination" and just say AI is fuckin stupid. I asked for games with a "J" in the title and it gave me this

Hm collects corpses and murdered their last boss, that seems like a red flag -- wait tier 2 chef with an anti-contamination skill??? you're hired

Went to Valve, saw some cool stuff, wrote a LOT about it. You can read all the key details here:

some quality turkeys in the park today, yup

the ending of the third episode of IT: Welcome to Derry suggested there might be some sort of evil clown behind all this... huge if true

love how chrome will shut down nvidia desktop recording if I go to amazon prime video on my PC. fuckin narc. I wasn't even gonna record anything, I was just gonna watch some Miss Marple on britbox

Me, abruptly, 34 years later: "What the hell was Ministry saying in Jesus Built My Hotrod, was it just "ding dang dingy dingy dingy dang ding dang ding a dong"

Chris put together a great quiz about everyone's favorite quirk of the games business: weird patent drawings www.pcgamer.com/games/stand-...

I feel like House of Dynamite might have hit hard in like 2000 before we'd seen 1 million shows/movies about people looking at screens in the situation room and a general saying "Mr. President you need to nuke the world" and an analyst going "Uh, respectfully sir, nuking the world is bad"

Ran the Dia De Los Miles 5K today, really fun crowd and super cool medal and I will not share my finishing time because you could have crawled backwards and still finished before me

"It's a moving kaleidoscope of AI sludge that's only amazing in how clearly it communicates that AI's biggest pushers are operating with a different set of standards." www.pcgamer.com/gaming-indus...

I'm fine, I'm over it, I wasn't deeply invested in Holden and Tench and Dr. Carr and I'm sure all these board game shows will be really good too www.pcgamer.com/movies-tv/we...

Crate Entertainment (makers of Grim Dawn) made a city builder and I've been a fan of it since it entered early access in 2022. It's launching into version 1.0 this week, and it's great www.pcgamer.com/games/city-b...

After a week of good times, here's my final Battlefield 6 review. "Battlefield 6 understands that the best FPS is a place, not just a service. The execution isn't perfect, but the heart is there." www.pcgamer.com/games/fps/ba...

me watching every If You Know, You Know video: “I don’t, um… I don’t know. could someone please tell me”

Even after putting this quiz together myself I couldn't think up most of Steam's different genre tags (there's like 135 of them) www.pcgamer.com/games/its-ou...

too lazy to get up and see if the game I’m downloading on Steam is almost done so taking a picture of my monitor from across the room with the camera zoomed in and then zooming in more on the picture and it maybe says 37%?

Just asking again for anyone still on twitter, please report this account for impersonating me (I no longer have a twitter account and this spammer grabbed my old handle and followers): x.com/_clivingston_

this lady's reaction to seeing a miracle of Jesus in this bible game

made the classic mistake of asking AI a simple, easily verifiable question

I'd have bet money this was like War of the Worlds, a covid-era movie of people in different rooms looking at screens that they made 5 years ago and is only now getting released. But I guess not? Shot last year apparently www.youtube.com/watch?v=cVtd...

looks like Battlefield 6 is great, I'm sold

My review-in-progress of Battlefield 6 is live. www.pcgamer.com/games/fps/ba...

New quiz! I show you some food, you guess what game it's from. www.pcgamer.com/games/can-yo...

I mean I feel like you could probably name-check your wife and kids in your book dedication but maybe he was in a hurry

Finally the flood of daily spam texts hits on a winner. Don’t pretend to be recruiting me for a job at TikTok. Pretend to be a button man asking me to confirm a hit

Since I left Twitter, naturally I am now being impersonated on Twitter, and naturally I cannot report this impersonation without having a Twitter account. It's a great system. Here's the fraud account if anyone knows how to help. x.com/_clivingston_

We joke about Steam reviews but sometimes they get their point across in a single sentence whereas it takes me about 1,800 words. Anyway, I made a quiz where you try to guess the game based only on a blurb from a Steam review. Pretty much everyone is is acing it. www.pcgamer.com/games/can-yo...

let’s make Y a vowel all the time

bro you look like you drop common items

Thought it would be easy making up a bunch of fake Kojima character names for this quiz, but it was kinda hard, actually. Find out if you're a Good Guessman or a Revolver Missalot. www.pcgamer.com/games/how-we...

remembered today that Watch Dogs: Legion (2020) let you recruit and play as a futuristic beekeeper who controlled swarms of cyberbees. am I gonna reinstall it just for cyberbees? may-bee

hot take: wind chimes suck. wind already makes a lovely noise when it rustles through the leaves and trees and grass, so why you gotta hang up a buncha tubes so every time the wind blows it sounds like iron man falling down a fire escape

PC Gamer's very own @mrmidasgames.bsky.social will be joining Elle Osili Wood to present the PC Gaming Show Tokyo Direct on September 28. See you there! #PCGamingShow

I made a quiz where you try to name all 49 Call of Duty games (yeah technically there are 49 of them) in under 3 minutes. None of us did all that well. I only got 26 and I'm the one who put the quiz together. www.pcgamer.com/games/oh-you...

This is my new home, where I'll be covering the same beats i did at Polygon as well as taking on some new and exciting projects!!

This quiz by @chrislivingston.bsky.social is surprisingly hard. Turns out a lot of the games that stick out to me as having been huge hits came out 10+ years ago when there were far fewer Steam users. www.pcgamer.com/games/how-we...

Remember when Steven Spielberg was in a trailer for a Wii game called Boom Blox Bash Party while dressed as Walter White? Because I don't remember that. I don't remember that at all. Even watching it now I don't think it ever happened

made this for work but I shall provide no context

You're traveling through another dimension. A dimension not only of sight and sound but of mind. A journey into a wondrous land whose boundaries are that of imagination. That's a signpost up ahead: your next stop: the...

Wrote about this earlier this year but if you want to break up with NYT Games, Merriam-Webster has a great collection of free daily puzzles: Wordle-likes, a Spelling Bee-like, crosswords, trivia, etc. www.pcgamer.com/games/i-only...

We are dabbling in quizzes over at PC Gamer. I was the Chosen One (due to a birthmark on my head that spells out the word "QUIZ") to create our inaugural quiz, and if you would like to take the quiz and let me know what you think about the quiz that would be quiz www.pcgamer.com/games/quiz-t...

As a doctor, I'd say that sneeze indicates you have a mild cold. Or, you're infected with zombie plague and you need to immediately be put to death by an impassive soldier. Could be either one. Also, I'm not a doctor. www.pcgamer.com/games/sim/im...
