My Xbox Ally and Xbox Ally X review.

The top phrases running through my mind while testing it:

"Someone's getting fired for greenlighting this launch"

"This is not an Xbox"

"If this is the future of Xbox, Xbox is screwed."

Went with the middle.

This is not an Xbox

Microsoft’s first “Xbox” handhelds are shipping not fully baked.

"Do you think it was having it lead by a widely hated cardboard actor who's also a sexpest cult leader who's every project in the last decade being record breaking bombs, and sprinkle it with cameos from some nepotistic rich shitheads?"

We are constantly talking about how it must be done. In fact, we did so only a few days ago.

Hey friends. After having open heart surgery in Dec and another procedure in July, I've been left in 10k+ debt while recovering. During this, we were also laid off from Skullgirls. To try to help dig myself out, I have begun listing things on eBay: ebay.com/usr/mshinzan

What's the worst game you finished/rolled credits on?

(games media folks, it can't be something you were assigned to review; this has to be something you subjected yourself to of your own free will)

A once in a lifetime internet media discussion event!
What will you, many years hence, tell your grandchildren you were doing when first you espied the thumbnail of THE ONLY instance of Gigaboots talking about Kamen Rider to ever exist?

A thumbnail showing the title of this video and Kamen Rider driving out of a garage, that is exploding and on fire, on a motorcycle with a terrible prop child on his back. It is fucking awesome.

I am glad I was, as I discover yet another thing japanese game devs in the 90s and 00s loved

It's not a waste of sake if you're having a good time.

I strike down a ronin who betrayed me in Ghost of Yotei.

He starts to crawl away bloodied and the game pops up with a "Push Square to End his Suffering."

I slowly pull out my bow and fire arrows, grinning.

Be sure to tune in. As I tell all my lovers, this might just be the best 20 seconds of your life.

After I felt terrible during yesterday's stream, I decided to prioritize sleeping a shitload today instead of getting the podcast up at the usual time. I apologize, but I really love that we made today's podcast and hope you enjoy it.

I didn’t have any real excuse for how I did so I just had to sleep for 11.5 hours to fix me.

I was surprised that you didn’t.
