me after popping in a k cup

Shotgun Cop Man is a fun platformer where you do basically everything by shooting your guns. It also has a soundtrack that's perfectly-suited for the game but also makes me… uncomfortable? It’s a weird game that's worth playing. My review for @theverge.com: www.theverge.com/games-review...

despelote is a first person booter

Thunderbolts* is an extremely fine B-movie, and I think a lot of the glowing praise online speaks to how exhausted people have become with all the multiverse stuff. My review:

ive been lucky enough to work adjacent to and sometimes really closely with the polygon team and they all rule, this sucks

also some really good buildings

it's very important to me that hotel cleaning staff never see a mess in my room

in helsinki for a few days, already saw some really good faces

Bionic Bay mixes floppy physics with hard sci-fi

Here to join the chorus of voices that say that Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is one of my fave games of 2025 so far. For @theverge.com: www.theverge.com/games-review...

i love my kids but it's hard when they keep me from going to see sinners

playing that hot new rpg (bastion)

ive worked at the verge for over a decade and this is the best image gallery we've ever published imo www.theverge.com/games/655949...

Sat down with Sinners' director of photography Autumn Durald Arkapaw to talk about shooting That Scene and using wide shots to really make you feel how expansive and endless the rural South can feel

Is Oblivion fun? No. Is it bad? Also no!

bionic bay: yes yes, very good

all research for work i swear

For @theverge.com I spoke to the cast of the brilliant Clair Obscur. Andy Serkis reveals what attracted him to this painterly RPG and why he's championed mo-cap and games since LOTR While @benstarr.bsky.social and Jennifer English talk wrestling with mortality. www.theverge.com/interview/65...

just remembered i ended up writing a big design story about andor entirely because i wanted to know about a necktie www.theverge.com/23445550/sta...

Andor's first season set a new high bar for Star Wars storytelling, and the new season solidifies it as the entire franchise's storytelling peak. My review:

the most unrealistic part of the new black mirror is a writer having a full three weeks to do nothing but file a game preview

I interviewed Lucas Pope, the solo creator of games like Papers, Please and Return of the Obra Dinn, at GDC this year. It was a really cool conversation about games -- and what he learned about them from his kids! www.theverge.com/games/651376...

Went into Sinners expecting Lovecraft Country redux and an answer to the Blade movie we might never see. But Coogler really set out to make a Film™ about the mythology Black people have always created for ourselves, and he knocked it out of the park. My review:

i have had an extremely long week and this game is what is getting me through it

sucks to see the gig economy come for the mushroom kingdom

mario kart world has more worldbuilding than the mario movie

mia san mia 😭

this movie wrecked me at tiff last year www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOyX...
