It's crazy to think this is the most well respected gameplay mechanic in the industry and it first showed up on freaking movies.

didn't know if I'd ever return to this game but I've come away with a new appreciation for it as a jaw-dropping technical feat in the early days of ps2 and a fascinating combat system pre-DMC. link below!

REALLY feeling this one today.

store.steampowered.com/app/2109060/... The game is going through the Autumn sales season. Not 30%, but 40% price cut. That's even cheaper than, uhhhhh, a bag of two-days-worth groceries. Anyway you should get this one for the poor dev who has to face the winter night alone in a foreign place. 🥺

The most accurate recreation of DS9 I've seen.

Microsoft will no longer allow Israel to use its cloud services to enable its mass surveillance of occupied Palestinians – "the first known case of a US technology company withdrawing services provided to the Israeli military since the beginning of its war on Gaza"

We need to go back to games being cruel.

the point of a game is not to beat it, it is to play it. difficulty is only "a problem" if it is "in the way" of beating the game, which is an issue in the mindset of the player, not in the structure of the game. redoing parts of a fun game is not a punishment, it's an invitation to hang out

I saw the golden opportunity to shill my game. No shame. #silksong #magentahorizon #indiedev #indiegame

finally getting this review out after getting walled on it for a bit... I thought our podcast episode on it (coming soon!) captured the essence and texture of this game so well that condensing it didn't feel right. still, I'm glad I was able to massage it into something I'm happy with. link below!

reposting this again since we finally got Metroid Prime 4's release date #Doom #Metroid

In case you haven't played it yet, Severed Steel (one of the best bullet-time shooters around, IMO) just got a big 4th anniversary update, and it's *95% off* for the rest of the month. That puts it down to around one dollar. If you like the FPS genre in the slightest, you really should have this.

Americans realizing that nintendo didn't have that big of a market share in europe is still one of my favourite videogame related culture shocks.

Gen X American game critics set up this myth of the history of the medium that basically only considers upper middle class white kids from the US who got a Nintendo for Christmas. We can't seem to shake it from the English language gaming community

football is back! and if I'm gonna spend my spare time watching it instead of playing other games, I'm definitely gonna be thinking about its complexity and the high points of its design. today I wanted to hone in on timer management in the NFL and how it relates to video game timers, link below!

Do you think Elon is sad about this?

Youtube took down my NBA2K17 Dragon's Dogma video for use of a B'z song earlier this year, so uploading it here in full.

Nothing. It’s time to let go of this aspect of anticipation culture

my funny bone got tickled mad good by this

An extremely fun & imo directorially rich moment in that Bond demo - what appears to be Bond's first on-mission kill being framed like this so it looks like the gun barrel sequence, despite being an in-gameplay, player-in-control moment:

My first gut reaction watching the 007 first light showcase was that it looked like 7th gen cinematic slop (derogatory) but the overview they showed afterwards was a bit more convincing.

While NOT a metroidvania Magenta Horizon has the backbone of Hollow Knight, combat of Ninja Gaiden, a DMC-like combo system and the unique artistic madness of solo-dev @maddisonbaek.bsky.social #PitchYaGame #Silksong #PitchYaVania

it's the end of summer... so I've shared some thoughts about boku no natsuyasumi 2, a game that touched me deeply this last month. link below

ys 2 innovating this incredible feature where you can turn into a monster and talk to them about how you are a horrible murderer

One thing that doesn’t get talked about enough when it comes to being an artist in any medium is that if you’re creating at a high level, you have less time to consume things than other people. Especially things related to your craft.

Yeah, my discord has a vent channel. Every day one member is randomly assigned to be Gordon and the rest of us @ them with pictures of headcrabs in there. If they don't respond with :crowbar: within 20 seconds we ban them.

CR messed up on the back end one time and throttled everyone's bitrate the original apology, which I wrote, stated that we messed up and wouldn't do it again PR tossed it, then rewrote it into some weird non-apology that sounded more like a sales pitch then I tweeted the truth and got in trouble😀

"then vs now" videos can be so funny cause they show beloved games that had huge amount of resources, talent/experience and time put into them (exceptions) and then the current game is something like mindseye. This is the equivalent of going "2000s sucked actually" and showing footage of Unreal 2.

Hitman VR makes you feel so slick I can't believe you can do this

After the weird "Make FPS Great Again" thing few months ago, the devs of 'Splitgate 1' did something good and handed the game to the community. As part of "Stop Killing Games", the game moves to peer-to-peer and all cosmetics will become free on August 29th. www.dexerto.com/gaming/split...

For the longest time I have been wondering if UE5 environments looking like they have been clinically sterilised from any literal atmosphere is a collective artistic choice or devs not wanting to do more than what's default on the engine.

I don't care much for Hollow Knight but this is a story that I think we need to hear more of: Devs that had a huge hit and just tuned out from internet discourse and focused on developing their new game and enjoying the process free from both extreme praise and/or ire of its fanbase.

"Selaco isn't F.E.A.R. enough." Okay, fine. Here is a heatwave effect for explosions.
