I'm usually pretty shitty about the Game Awards... and that hasn't really changed.
But I do love seeing Clair Obscur get the recognition it deserves. Double A gaming is back. May the Xbox 360 era return.

Coun. Sam Austin expressed concerns with that meeting, saying while he thought the intentions were "good," he asked if the invitation was the "epitome of a backroom meeting?"

I have an immense amount of respect for Halifax's independent reporters.
They're the ones who pick up the stories that bigger news corps end up running off with, often with a human-centred angle that holds the power to account.
Support local, independent journalism whenever you can.
