Was fortunate to be invited to preview Season 9 of The Finals (the Year 3 kick-off). Thoughts

- Combined World Tour progression with all modes looks fantastic
- Love the sponsor changes
- The 8 v 8 mode, Point Break, is an excellent addition
- The BP has some amazing cosmetics

Pumped for Thursday!

Ghost of Yotei completed (and near 100%ed).

Really enjoyed it. A few minor annoyances and some cliche stuff - but otherwise really engaging and a better game than Tsushima without question.

Certainly one of my favorites of the year!

Also Atsu 🫶🏼

Absolutely pumped for The Finals Season 9. IMO the best arena shooter on the market continues to improve and expand.

Between this and the first Major Tournament this weekend, love seeing Embark crush it on all fronts.

Already finished all four released episodes of the Stranger Things Season 5.

Like it a lot and episode 4 amps it up as the lead up to the end begins. Feels like with this season they picked up directly from season 4 which benefits the show overall. Excited to see how they close it out.

Bought a NEW Sonic: Crossworlds from the GameStop Black Friday sale….

So to my surprise this is the case and the condition this NEW game came in…

Absolutely unacceptable. I’m returning this ASAP.

Happy Thanksgiving all! 🥃

Thankful for all the new friends I’ve made since joining Bluesky and for those spreading positivity in the gaming community. Hope you all have a great day. 🙏🏼

My goal today? Perfect the art of the espresso martini. I’m on round 2 and improving. Ways to go yet though!

More games release daily than any of us could ever hope to play. The word "backlog" has become a regular part of our discourse.

@stacyongames.bsky.social argues, however, that our backlog is not a burden. Rather, loving a game is sometimes merely a matter of timing.

While this isn't a big study, it highlights a few key aspects that have been reinforced in other areas we like to call out as part of our Good in Gaming initiative.

- Gaming is generally more fulfilling than other hobbies due to the level of engagement

- Gaming can be "productive" in numerous ways

Checked out a few other games for a bit but continuing to enjoy my journey with Atsu. I’m definitely digging her and the overall story more than I did Tsushima. 🌸

Demonschool from @necrosoftgames.com is "A game for those who love nuance, antics, and those who like to embrace a sense of individuality" writes @common-loot.com .

I thought my school days were over. While I may be willing to learn new things, I lament the fact that none of it has anything to do with slaying demons.

Just wanted to say a sincere Thank You to all who swung by, even momentarily, last night. 🙏🏼

It had been a long time since I last streamed but it was a lot of fun. Gonna aim to get back to it more often - maybe with some horror games. 🤓✌🏻

Over the last several years I've raised nearly $7,000 for Extra Life & Children's Miracle Hospitals in KC.❤️

My career has kept me from it so far in 2025 but that changes tonight!

I'll be streaming beginning around 9pm EST. Would sincerely appreciate anyone swinging by. 🙏🏼
