Reminder that @paletteswap.site is a really fucking great game satire site (with some great non-satire content too!) created by some of the former Hard Drive folks who were crushing it in the site's heyday.

I got to interview Aaron Paul, one of the main cast members of my all-time favorite show (Bojack) but also Dispatch, and it was very cool

Game Informer @gameinformer.com · 2d

We spoke with actor Aaron Paul about his starring role in Dispatch and the struggles of recording a game with so many dialogue options. "It was honestly a very confusing process for me, as a performer," Paul says. "But a challenging and rewarding one, as well." gameinformer.com/interview/20...

Robert, Aaron's character in Dispatch, gazes longingly at an old helmet.

before i left Hard Drive, they made us do this kind of stuff and it was a lot of me going into meetings like "uh well i guess i spent 2 hours today....thinking about Master Chief"

News: Bari Weiss just sent a memo to staffers at CBS News asking them to produce a memo explaining "how you spend your working hours—and ideally, what you've made (or are making) that you're most proud of."

One CBS News staffer puts it like this to me: "We just got Elon Musked."

Spyro was a greater influence on me as a kid than anything else, including the multiple repeated blows to the head. Perhaps due to either of those things, I have long struggled to know what to say about it - but now I believe I Have Finally Found The Words For Spyro.

I played for a bit on switch and was running into a lot of technical issues. glad to hear it isn't the case on other platforms at least

Parker @parkj0hn.bsky.social · 14d

if there was a material exchange market or something it'd feel much better. I have 200+ bronze and nothing to do with it but I gotta keep digging for silver

the thing about Netflix's price hikes is that they came after the general public switched to consuming nearly all tv/movies at home via streaming

Game Pass is not even close to that level of mass adoption yet
