I don’t know who at Bandai Namco made this but it couldn’t not be any clearer that they spent their life making AMVs, saw their moment to shine, and did not hesitate.

every video game should be a version of Rez. you can mod the setting to have yr call of duty battlefields or zombies doing whatnot but the mechanic needs to be throbbing dude sailing fwd in space to techno. no other forms are needed, or wanted

Worth noting that this is also what the UK government review found, it just ignored all the evidence in its conclusions.

When hunting hitches in your games, you'll need the tools of the trade. And any hitch-hunter worth their salt carries with them a Lantern of Insights at all times. See this mystical lantern in action in "The Great Hitch Hunt" at Unreal Fest Orlando on June 4th, 3:30 PM ET in North Session Room 5!

I was a part of this incredible crew. We were working on such an amazing and stunning game. Detailed, rich, beautiful. It breaks my heart the world wont see it. It also breaks my heart to say goodbye to the team. What an honor to work with you all. What a sad day. 💔 www.gamespot.com/articles/ea-...

Anyone else headed to XP Game Summit? I'll be there repping @ontariogametesters.com and on a panel with the @interactiveontario.com Indie Superboost Committee, talking about the indie balance between creative and business realities. See you there ... ?

This month my incredible partner @mitzistarkweather.bsky.social was diagnosed with metastatic (stage 4) breast cancer. We’re devastated, but hopeful that modern treatments can give her many more years. It will be a long road and if you’re able, we could use your help. gofund.me/4010f535

You are now known as The Armadillo. You feel nothing at all about it.

Kudos to Last of Us TV for excising the “you killed a dog in a cutscene, feel bad!” stunt from part 2. Nearly made me quit at the time, felt so cheap for a game that clearly wanted to be taken seriously. Dialing back the cult stuff was also a smart move.

Finished Lone Women by Victor LaValle (good!) and Doom : Dark Ages (also good!), reorganized my closet and storage room (necessary!), went to two parties (fun!) and made whole wheat pancakes (decent!). Now I chill.

Damn, Doom : Dark Ages really picks up in the second half. I contend that when you’re out of cutscene land and into a string of intricately laid out levels with ominous names, that’s when you know a Doom game is really cooking.

I like that the Doom TD spends some time talking about building and optimizing assets to best fit their engine and pipeline in the Digital Foundry interview.

my kingdom for no one to ever say “just go work in tech” to a laid-off gamedev ever again

Laying workers off should be more of a source of shame in the games industry. I think they did it a few times and realised there are virtually no consequences and now workers are at the whim of a quarterly report. They hire new staff, lay them off, hire new staff, reshuffle, sell, etc, repeat.

Doom : Dark Ages feels like a stealth re-run at Quake, not so much the game - although it shares some fun level design ideas with it, especially later on - as what I envisioned from / what I remember of the original “you’re a big axe guy” pitch from way back when.

This huge hall was the main office of the Underground Revenue Service. Until the construction of the FrobozzCo Building, it was the largest structure in the Empire. Here, thousands upon thousands of accountants and auditors once sat, tabulating the proceeds from Dimwit's astronomical taxations.

Today in cool things to get in the mail, Steve Albini’s personal copy of the Avengers LP. The man was a hero, his passing had a real impact on me and it felt like he’d want his record collection to live on. Also, it’s a great album!

the criticism that Dems put forth old and ailing politicians to their detriment is unquestionably true, but there’s a large contingent of the party dedicated to calling you a heartless scumbag if you point it out

No Brasil aconteceu o inverso: as revistas Supergame, especializada em Sega, e Gamepower, especializada em Nintendo, se fundiram a partir de abril de 1994 para dar origem à revista multiplataforma SuperGamePower.

Look I did messaging for the Dems for years. It's not the message. When dealing with fascism, the best spin artists in the world won't be able to cover up the Dems insistence on doing nothing at all.
