I remember when I was 20 and 9/11 started, I remember the Irak war as well and now I'm nearly double and we're going through the same bullshit over again and for what this time ? More cause for anti-antisemitism world wide ? That's it.

Folks in the EU, I highly recommend lending your signature to this! Game preservation needs it!

The world moved on from bright colours and joyful weirdness. But for a brief moment, gaming looked like something better. Something fun. If you listen closely, that version of the future still hums inside the Dreamcast. #blog #gaming #dreamcast

My new video on PHANTASMAGORIA is out! I've been wanting to give this one a critical re-appraisal for a very long time, because it's genuinely one of the best FMV-Horror Thrillers of all time. Let's find out why! youtu.be/ioxXMGRXP08

Je rigole depuis cinq minutes c'est beaucoup trop marrant

Minimalism has been popular in design for a decade now, but what happens when we strip away the fun? Can design still delight us, or have we surrendered our consoles’ spirit to a fancy brick? I wrote specifically a little about Nintendo and it's recent changes. #blog #gaming #nintendo #design

Not sure how to do this. My partner and light of 19 years, @mitzistarkweather.bsky.social has been diagnosed with metastatic (stage 4) breast cancer. We are hopeful that modern treatment can give her many more years of changing the world. If you’re able, we could use your help. gofund.me/99a35bf2

In recent weeks, video game publishers Take-Two and EA both warned investors about potential "reputational" risks to the use of gen-AI in games. It's a problem that all game companies will soon need to confront: Players hate genAI. This week's column: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

Bleh good thing I got rid of audible and downloaded everything.

Seeing a few online personalities I follow transition, same for friends and refusing to throw them under the bus.

I hope everyone has a very happy Saturday if not, I hope this soothes things a little bit :

Very good article about our current cultural moment and why there's a light at the end of this tunnel for people who are daring.

Cancelled my Switch 2 pre-order, the fact there's no absolute guarantee my switch games will be working 100% on it is a deal killer for the moment. If you're in my situation, let others test the thing out, let the patches come in and buy it later !

People getting mad at non-gendered toilets, the same stuff pretty much everyone has at home...

Today I picked up and start to play Starvaders and I'm incredibly pleasantly surprised. Be it the presentation or actual gameplay and how well balanced it feels... Space Invader but with cards games and turn by turn ? Sign me up ! store.steampowered.com/app/2097570/...

Playnite is genuinely the best software and has completely changed PC gaming for me, while also freeing me from feeling the need to overly rely on/always choose Steam for convenience

If we can't at least keep Innuendo Studios afloat, it's time to switch the Internet off. Ian's work has helped so many of us navigate the last decade. Let's have his back now that he needs our help.
