Breaks my heart to share this, but today is my last day at The Verge and I am looking for work! I'd really like to stay in video games, preferably in some kind of journalistic capacity but I can do PR/Marketing and maybe even a lil Narrative Design. Please get in touch!

David Lynch passed a year ago today. I hope we all can absorb just a little bit of the energy he put out in his lifetime.

Reminder that video game journalism cannot exist without functioning newsrooms that have the capacity to mentor and train new talent and the bandwidth to pursue long-form investigative pieces and break news—all while paying writers a living wage.

Doubling down. It is not a controversial take to give respect to AP and Reuters journalists in Venezuela, most of who are local or from Lat Am, currently risking their lives, and who are paid for their work — so everyone else can benefit from their reporting.

Incredible how people who know nothing about journalism are abusing (via quote tweets) a woman who was literally chucked out of China for her journalism. AP and Reuters are reputable outlets. I've seen someone on Bluesky resending Russia Today screen grabs. Not the same.
It’s old-fashioned to defend mainstream journalism these days but some of the most reliable reporting from people actually on the ground will be the AP and Reuters the next 24 hours. Your Substack journalist writing takes will be using frontline reporting from them.

Call of Duty’s Vince Zampella was a video games visionary
Zampella created the template for multiplayer shooters that is still used today, and his cinematic and epic military, sci-fi and Star Wars games thrilled and moved millions

Opening a boxed and unused Xbox 360! They released it two decades ago now, so this was the perfect time to unbox a 60GB Pro model, set it up, enjoy the Blades, and play some games. While HOPEFULLY avoiding red rings. Jump in!

For people who like the juicy details about running an indie media publication:
I had the honor of chatting with @jaypeters.net about Post Games.
We talk about making media for people over 30, the current size and long term goal of paid subs, and what the model allows me to create.
