I’m in our London office this week but PS+ streaming to my Portal works great from my hotel. My Dave the Diver save picks up where I left off home seamlessly.

In other games to recommend news, I finished Thank Goodness You’re Here this morning. Very funny/clever stuff that doesn’t overstay it’s welcome. I had almost played it through in one sitting last weekend. I didn’t realize how close to the end I was. Give it a shot. #PS5 #Indies

Games are a valued distraction this week. Rolled credits on Dave the Diver tonight. I bounced off it the first time, but I absolutely loved it. I may go back and finish the platinum. If you haven’t tried it, it’s brilliant. Had to get it off my plate before Monster Hunter arrives and consumes me.

I'm looking forward to this one. Konami has been picking up some great gems lately. www.youtube.com/watch?v=dRUA...

Liberty is a heavy burden in Helldivers 2. Outfit yourself with the Portable Hellbomb as part of the Servants of Freedom Warbond, out Feb 6: play.st/4jBSc4J

Rolled credits on Dead Rising Remaster with the best ending in overtime mode. I forgot how good this game was when we published it way back on Xbox 360. Crazy stuff.

Had a beautiful weekend with some friends on the beach. Today, back to reality.

I’m late posting this but a nice walk down memory lane on one of my favorite franchises… both as player and publisher t.co/eGmN0LaZl2

There's growing concern that proposed tariffs could have an impact on the number of physical PS5 games released in the US. (Repost)

While I was part of the team that published it originally, I forgot how great Dead Rising is. The new options and upgrades in the remaster are fantastic (especially with the PS5 Pro enhancements).

My review of Caves of Qud, based solely on phrases my partner mutters to themself while playing, is that it's effectively a Pliny the Elder simulator. They just hissed, "I believe honey has something to do with healing, but I don't know what it is" and then starting inspecting a pig

My dear friend Javon and his wonderful family lost everything in the Palisades Fire. If there's anything you can do to help them get back on their feet, please do, even if it's just sharing this. gofund.me/15f0b169

I smoked a wagyu brisket for 16 hours (after a 3 day brine) for my daughter’s 20th birthday celebration today. It’s resting now in the kitchen and the house smells so great. Can’t wait to slice it in a couple hours. I’m starving.

Spent a lot of time playing Path of Exile 2 on #PS5 over the break. My poison mastery Pathfinder build is coming along well as I work my way through Act 3 of Wicked Difficulty. Map clearing is a snap but in boss fights I’ll often still die in one hit so survivability is still an issue.

Was posted on Twitter as a QRT of a story about losing to scrubs, posting in here too in case this helps you

Took a couple months (about 50 hours) but I finally finished DragonQuest 3 HD-2D Remake. Loved it. I would do very bad things for a version of FF6 handled with the same care and detail. Great work @square-enix-games.com

Spent Christmas Eve with some friends watching the documentary parts of Tetris Forever. Was great. Would do it again. @mikejmika.bsky.social @kohler.bsky.social
