We're really just going through with all this, aren't we aftermath.site/summer-game-fe...

Wildly uneven and counter-intuitive, Elden Ring Nightreign is FromSoftware throwing stuff at the a wall to see what sticks. aftermath.site/neightreign-is...

Today the CPSC announced that Midea is recalling it's line of U-shaped air conditioners. We had previously reported that these had gone missing, and have updated our article to reflect this. aftermath.site/midea-u-shape-...

a reminder that subscribing to @aftermath.site is a cool thing to do because it's literally the only way we get paid to write this stuff that, I think, is very good aftermath.site/products

Hey, we're going live! Join us for our weekly stream/podcast recording on Twitch: www.twitch.tv/aftermathdotsite

Sony announced their first real fight stick and I've been obsessing over it for the past day. For @aftermath.site, I wrote about what little we know about Project Defiant, the rich culture of fight sticks, and if Sony can make something that lives up to their standards aftermath.site/sony-fight-s...

BREAKING update on the walmart switch 2 coke and pringles situation

Why Switch 2 preorders from Walmart came with Coca-Cola and Pringles aftermath.site/nintendo-swi...

talked to riley about why the switch 2 is the friends we made along the way

I am far too old to be out so late, but I had a nice time discussing why we so romanticize lines with @theautumnwright.bsky.social

I waited in a midnight line for two and a half hours to watch someone else get a Switch 2 aftermath.site/switch-2-line

Wouldn’t have seen this info about my brand new AC unit (ugh) without @aftermath.site’s post about it last month!

The CPSC has announced the recall of Midea's line of U-shaped air conditioners, which I had reported had gone missing for @aftermath.site. This impacts both Canada and the United States. The article has been updated to reflect this. aftermath.site/midea-u-shap... bsky.app/profile/cpsc...

This is why @aftermath.site rules.

Broke : oUr gAmE iS nOt PoLiTiCaL BASED MATSUNO: WRITERS WHO USE SUBTEXT ARE COWARDS!!!! ALSO, FUCK CAPITALISM

Yup

time to reup the first article I ever wrote for aftermath again aftermath.site/how-a-leftis...

Tell 'Em: aftermath.site/final-fantasy-...

writers who use subtext are cowards

i loved this blog, not just because its a good blog, but because it reminds me some of the best times ever at kotaku: when everyone was playing the same game at the same time and enthusiastic conversations in slack spilled over into cool and interesting blogs on the site

hell yeah

QUESTION: Does anyone I/we know have a switch 2 and isn't at SGF?

i have been driven slightly mad by so much of this industry pretending nothing has changed when...everything has changed

Alex and Gita team up with Brad Gullickson (@mouthdork.bsky.social) of Comic Book Couples Counseling for issue 40, taking on the many parallels of Elon Musk and Lex Luthor, as well as Offspring's whole deal.

I've assimilated. (Hand and nail job, unfortunately, not mine.)

Put 35 hours into Nightreign and while it is an uneven game I think it's healthy for them to trust a first-time director to try shit out and turn their biggest franchise inside out. For @aftermath.site aftermath.site/neightreign-...

Why are they doing these things

Word*. 🐎 #GameDev #games *This is the only discourse about the new #Witcher4 trailer that matters to me right now.

didn’t know @aftermath.site made their own anime, nice work folks

watching a character who people keep saying looks like you [SPOILER] is certainly a… unique experience

Lol, lmao (spoilers for the end of Clair Obscur act one) aftermath.site/clair-obscur...

I am going to steer the horse into zero trees and never lose her and also not completely bungle the story of a new Witcher game the way I did the previous one, and also start getting up earlier and cleaning the house every day

I am going to do right by The Witcher 4's horse aftermath.site/witcher-4-kelpie

Isaiah is doing such cool stuff across the internet and across topics. I feel like I'm being micro-targeted

just so you know we spared no expense on these, theyre on premium as colour blanks and its a pristine DTFx transfer

just christened my new 13” CRT with an @aftermath.site sticker. what game should I play first??

I haven’t touched the demo of this because I just know for a fact this game is extremely for me and represents a lot of what I love about video games and the craft that goes into making them. Waiting to buy this for nearly a decade!!!

Yes, you too can have your cats stare at you adoringly, just by wearing an @aftermath.site Destroy AI t-shirt.

I know there are some things out there, but I remain surprised at how gaming doesn't have a letterboxd or goodreads yet. At least in terms of popularity. Like, every film head I know has letterboxd. Every reader has goodreads. Not the case for gamers.

I spoke with Julian and Keni, the two-man tag team behind Dropkickd, an app where the international wrestling community can rate and revire retro and contemporary matches from promotions all over the world and asked them how it came to be.

Finally, a Letterboxd for wrestling aftermath.site/dropkickd-ette...
