The statement at the bottom of the bottle is one of the most “no bleep” things I’ve seen in recent memory. You’re literally spraying your face with water.

I love the Monument Valley games and it’s awesome to see III finally freed from Apple’s grasp on the App Store! This game was meant to be played on mobile hardware, can’t wait to dig deeper. UsTwo simply doesn’t miss.

Öoo being missed by so many people makes me sad. It’s an immaculately designed 2d platform-puzzler from the same creator as ElecHead. It only takes a couple of hours to beat and never runs out of clever ideas/mechanics. Please check this little gem out!

People saying Prime 4 is on the same level graphically as Halo 4 don’t seem to realize the complement this is. Halo 4 was and still is stunning.

When someone says “the HDR in this game is broken” I just nod my head and think inside that idk wtf they’re talking about. Glad I’m a tech dummy or blind to this I guess!

Not “warring” but PS5 might be my least favorite console I’ve owned…ever? I don’t think I’ve played a major console less than this. It’s an exclusives machine and that’s been sadly lacking.

Probably complained about this before, but it keeps coming up so…I understand people use “like” in speech, crutch or otherwise, but now I’m seeing people writing it and even starting full sentences with it and I’m not sure what reality I live in.

I see a lot of negative chatter about the Switch 2 and its first party lineup this year and I shake my head. I’ve had a ton of fun with it, Hyrule Warriors being my current jam and looking forward to Metroid Prime 4. Hating everything can’t be a fun way to live yo

Three great releases cements Obsidian as the dev/studio of the year, certainly one of the most consistent doing it at this level.

Smashing a button to open a door, move a board, open a chest, etc. Annoying and adds nothing beneficial to a game. Immersion can be accomplished elsewhere, I know there’s so many smart ideas waiting to be implemented!

Forcing players to read notes/journals/book or listen to audio logs will always be a poor storytelling mechanic.

Internet discourse makes me glad I’m not a “super fan” of anything gaming related (outside of Backtrackers!). Halo, Pokémon, whatever, cheer up folks it’s just video games!

I’m formally downgrading Frosted Flakes to a C-Tier cereal. Its taste is boring, gets soggy fast, and doesn’t make a good hand snack.

Ninja Gaiden 4 feels slick a few levels in and runs great on the ROG Ally X (not Xbox version). Picking a Top 20 (!) is going to be hard this year!

The saddest thing about Xbox’s shift for me is that they’ve lost almost all the Sega-ness they had in them.
