Sylux is such a lame villain. The only way they could make them cool is if you blast their helmet off and it turns out they're actually a lady who is even taller, buffer and hotter than Samus

The word selfie was invented in 2002, but in 1999, Final Fantasy gave us the RPG character most likely to take/post selfies in the history of video games, and her name was Selphie. And yet somehow some people still don’t think that the world is a beautiful miracle

Can I just say to my lovely followers (who haven't muted me) - just unfollow me if you hate what I post about!
There's no obligation to follow me if you feel like I post too much (I don't) or complain too much (I might).
YOU control who you follow!

Now I heard there was a tiny box
Engraved with names like Minecraft Notch
And Brian Fargo and FourZeroTwo, yeah
But though it promised games for free
And mobile ports on your TV
It's a cold and it's a broken Founders' Ouya

kinda crazy how little of EB Games is actually videogames any more. Teeny tiny little section up the back of the tiny store is games. Everything else is just random pop culture tat. And this is next door to a zing store. Which is the same company selling the same stuff. It's grim

To heal our divided nation I propose splitting Game of the Year awards into two categories:
- Game of the Year That’s 3D and You Use a Sword and/or Gun to Explode a Guy
- Game of the Year That’s Some Gay Bullshit Indie Meditation on Grief or Whatever
- Game of the Year That’s 3D and You Use a Sword and/or Gun to Explode a Guy

played the first couple of hours of Silent Hill F. It's alright so far. However I'm really not loving the combat and I'm very worried that it's not going to get much better

I'm making a little DQ-inspired game right now and let me tell you... My NPC dialogue might not be especially amazing but I can guarantee that none of it is written by AI and that's a promise !!!
(This is the bare minimum of what anyone should deem acceptable btw)

i take frenzy damage every time i see someone go "well i just use it for the boring stuff". what are you TALKING about? if it's boring or unimportant, why are you putting it in? NPC dialogue is fertile ground for worldbuilding, creating verisimilitude, conveying important information, and hijinks!!
Buy a solo indie dev's game because I want to support them.
Find out it uses OpenAI to write "non-important NPC dialogue".

As many are saying- this is bad. Buy Yakuza 0 while you can!
The Directors Cut version seems to be worse than the original plus it's way more expensive

Terrible launch for Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 in Europe. The game sold 63% fewer copies at launch compared with Battlefield 6. It's also more than 60% down over last year's Black Ops 6. (Digital and physical sales. GSD Data) www.thegamebusiness.com/p/call-of-du...

But a strong launch for Ubisoft's Anno 117: Pax Romana

Gonna have to actually play E33 soon.
Got a few hours in then dropped it because of life getting in the way and I just know I'm gonna eventually have story stuff spoiler for me. Plus I'm getting tired of seeing people glaze it for "revolutionising" JRPGs.
