When @lotrlore.bsky.social is explaining what SpongeBob does as a Commander

I truly, sincerely, perhaps naively want to be on the Giant Bomb couch next year. 🙏🐱 I'd rather be there loving games and being vulnerable about our industry than trying to talk over DJs. Put me in, coach.

Wuchang looks really pretty, tho

Two hours was too long for this show, Geoff.

How I feel after all these mid reveals

While there’s some cool looking stuff, I don’t know how to properly articulate why this SGF feels off. A lack of confidence maybe? Just a flood of ironic trailers and really iterative stuff. It’s like you can see the cracks in the industry through this show.

Hearing a legally distinct muppet say "shit" was not on my bingo card today

The fuq is Dante, tho

Finally in Los Angeles, 3 hours later than scheduled. But I’m here.

Gotta love spending my birthday with flight delays. Coming on three hours now

Dune Awakening servers seem to be holding up well this morning just an hour after launch. Was able to hop in and play some before I have to go grab my flight to LA. Thank God it's going to be on GeForce Now - I couldn't fit my gaming laptop in my bag this time...

I think the big takeaway from the Switch 2 launch is to pre-order through Walmart, which delivered this morning along with a free snack, and not Target, which still hasn't finished preparing to ship and won't answer questions about it.

In line for switch 2, someone just threw up behind me. The store might run out of units before I get to the front. I still need to pack for SGF tomorrow. Everything is fine.

Go support TJ and the wonderful folks at Shack News that let this man and the team there cook. #ShacknewsE4

Switch 2 releases tomorrow Today is the last day you can repost this

Marvelous Run this Year

nevermind

Mahvel baby desu

I want bad

Look, if they can give us a taste of Final Fantasy Tactics, maybe we can realistically hope and dream that we'll see more KH4.

THE FINAL FANTASY TACTICS REMASTER IS REAL

HOLY FUCK YES PLZ

the hell did I just watch

Wrote a small “eulogy” for the first Nintendo Switch on my personal blog through the lens in which I appreciated it most: Introducing my kids to video games. jasonfanelli.wordpress.com/2025/06/04/t...

I am extremely excited for the Nintendo Switch 2 and truly believe it will be a great system. That said, it’s a negative for everyone – consumers and media alike – to have no pre-launch reviews. More information and evaluation outside of heavily controlled environments always benefit players.

EVE players have no chill. It's 11:30 in the morning right now.

Putting out a call for journos who are NOT going to SGF and would be up for being on the show on Saturday

If you're a games journalist who secured a Switch 2 looking for a place for coverage, we're looking for some freelance coverage of the console and the launch line up over at @mmorpg.com. Hit me up if interested.

Magic: The Gathering's Final Fantasy expansion is easily the most anticipated Magic set of the year. I sat down with the dev team to talk about its development, who the set is aimed at, and, most importantly, whether people will be able to buy it. Read it here: www.mtgsalvation.com/articles/fea...

this is disturbing to read, as a warning, as it outright described what happened both before and in the incident. my heart is heavy for this man and I hope there's justice as spiritual, communal and beyond as he can get

RP stands for roleplay. It would take Clockwork Orange-level reprogramming to break that association for me, so it's basically "taken." When you share a post that's called RTing. What does it stand for? Who cares? It's still called a "podcast" even if you listen to it on an Android phone.

Desperately trying to get a Switch 2 secured before SGF, might just have to brave the GameStop line on the 5th and somehow still make my flight that afternoon...

i only need under $6,000 to meet my goal for top surgery in august! if you'd like to help a trans person out, please consider donating or sharing the campaign!

It's been two weeks since I last spoke with Leif. It's hard to believe it's already been that long. This morning was rough when that realization dawned. Missing you, buddy.
