The new live-action #StreetFighter movie at The Game Awards doesn't look good. Some things are interesting, but it has a lot to prove to Street Fighter fans. www.xda-developers.com/the-street-f...

Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic was a great surprise at The Game Awards

Finished #Terminator2DNoFate on PlayStation 5… That was a neat game. Definitely is doing something awesome with an amazing iconic movie. And that soundtrack is great.

I have many thoughts on it. Will share more soon. @bitmapbureau.com

I've been playing #MetroidPrime4 lately. Those awkward moments in the cutscenes can be annoying. But it's actually Samus Aran's fault they happen. www.xda-developers.com/samus-aran-i...

Samus Aran is the real problem with Metroid Prime 4's most awkward moments
The reaction to certain characters in Metroid Prime 4: Beyond might be misguided. The real problem may lie with Samus Aran herself.

I was gone during The Game Awards... This morning, my grandmother passed away... Had to be with her. So I dropped everything. We were very close...

I'm not fully ok in the aftermath but I'm fine ATM.

I'm not fully ok, but I'll have to be. Only way to do so is to move forward. Ad astra per aspera.

Got #TheGameAwards happening tonight. Looking forward to seeing what surprises @geoffkeighley.bsky.social has in store for the evening. Can't wait to watch the show.

What games are everyone hoping to see during The Game Awards? #gaming
December 11, 2025 at 3:23 PM
Really don’t get how people can say that #MarvelTokon is a bad game… That’s not what I saw and played in the beta we just got. The game looks great, feels great to play, and has more content coming in final release…

Don’t see how anyone can dump on the game how some have.

Lately, nobody can really decide if #ClairObscurExpedition33 is an indie game or not. Because nobody can agree on what makes #indiegames what they are. www.xda-developers.com/nobody-can-d...

Wrote an article about #ClairObscurExpedition33 again today... And it's also the convo about #indiegames too...

Might as well go get a strong cup of coffee ready, because this is going to be a rocky reaction from everyone.

The article goes live on XDA later this afternoon...

Got my #PlayStationWrapUp2025 today...

I played a lot of games, and earned A TON of trophies. So much gaming went down on my PS5. And it was a lot of fun throughout the entire year.

We were officially going to get a KOTOR 2 remake... It was code name Juliet... That was actually happening...

Wow... Absolutely nuts... 😱 #StarWars

I KNEW IT!!!

I absolutely knew there was something weird with how Aspyr Media went about not delivering the Restored Content DLC for #StarWars Knights of the Old Republic 2. www.gamefile.news/p/kotor-ii-r...

This makes sense, but still a damn shame. #gaming
