NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen.

Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

“Iconic” is an abused word but Link’s green hat and tunic is 100% iconic.

The latest games are moving away from focusing on that look, but it can’t change just how perfect his classic look is.

I’m glad they’ll spend time with it in the movie.

Standing in the kitchen getting Junior some breakfast and kept hearing this really fast THUDTHUDTHUD.

I thought maybe it was really fat droplets forming from frosty morning dew or something.

But it kept going. Finally looked outside and found the culprit. I was able to get about 5 feet from it.

Couple more episodes done in Dispatch this evening while Junior is in bed.

It is such a great game. I’m loving it.

@jasonlamb.org Love that Jack Hughes trade you’re pulling off!

Dispatch absolutely rules.
Shaping up to be my favourite superhero story in a long time.

Great voice acting. Great writing. Great characters. It’s a winner for sure.

Bonus point for having a character with asthma that is cool as hell 😅
Dispatch has been an excellent example of the episodic model done well.

Swift releases, time to chat decisions and story beats with others between content drops and a high quality throughout 👏

A total triumph.

Lego GameBoy is super cool. The D-pad moves and feels pretty spot on. The buttons can be pressed and feel spot on. Volume and contrast wheels. Start and Select buttons.

Just so damn cool.

The new Megadeth track kinda ruins a great, punky vibe with the cringiest lyrics I’ve heard old men unironically sing maybe ever?

At least the guitar work is solid…?

Oh hey, the new Moron Police track is out today and didn’t make cringe so hard my teeth hurt!?

Prog fans should listen to it.

My daughter found out tonight that Santa Clause isn’t real.

She cried 😅😬

No AI! I’m in.
Unfortunately searching for it so far is only bringing up weird religious stuff 😅

Watching the Pokopia extended trailer.

The need to make habitats specific to the Pokemon you want to attract is giving me serious Viva Piñata vibes. I LOVED Viva Piñata.

It could be the next cozy game addiction for me 😍

Nobody, regardless of status, fame, background, or etc. should ever have to worry about selling things to pay for cancer treatment.

Get your shit together, southern neighbours! 😤
Everyone thinks they will be the exception.

Serious illness or disability won’t happen to them and IF it does, they will be able to afford it.

The reality is it only takes one catastrophic event to change your life, especially in a country that doesn’t guarantee healthcare for all.

Toy Story 5 teaser was solid enough.
Until they showed Woody. His ending in 4 was perfect.

I hope this means it’s set before 4 and not just a retcon of 4.

Still not feeling 100% and it’s been close to a month now, I think? I’ve lost track of time.

Myself and others are being super reckless with our health as if a pandemic isn’t only very slightly in the rear view mirror.

Perfect live service experience
ARC Raiders, to me, feels more like a drug than a game. Most gambling ass game. I’m irritable when I’m not playing. I’m looking for my next high of extracting with that rare loot

I love this game. It’s a silly Breath of the Wild clone with some nice puzzles and moments.

Full stop, don't use any Generative AI.

I don't care if you need ideas for something, or can't write for shit. Yes you can. There's plenty of inspiration already in the world.

Gen AI is a cheap theft machine and if you have any credit or dignity for yourself you would be wise not to use it.

WHY WOULD THEY DO THIS TO ME!?!?

I CAN’T FIGURE OUT HOW TO MAKE IT BETTER!

Apparently Square Enix is jumping aboard the disgusting AI train too, and planning to lay off 75% of its QA workforce as a result.

So bad.
So dumb.

I’m seeing opinions that AI could definitely do QA work but that’s not true at all. AI could help us verify data and outcomes, but it can’t fully test

NEGA CANUCK!

They’re actually pretty nice guys. Just had to talk it through.

Ball x Pit has become my latest “I have 37 minutes to kill” game and I’m loving it.

It works perfectly for quick sessions, but also holds up to longer periods too.

Really just an all around great game, and it’s cool to see Arkanoid getting mixed into something modern 😍

What!? Rent not raising on a whim!? Being able to go places!? Healthcare not bankrupting people!?

And you want to do that by… WOA! Taking a few coins from the mountains of coins the dragons are sitting on!?

You radicals! You lunatics!
