Atlus should put Persona 4 Golden on iPhones.

@gameovergreggy.bsky.social Hey Greg! Heard you on Games Daily just now. I have a three year old son as well and can say he loves the Sonic movies and there’s nothing I would question in terms of content being appropriate for him or not. We even saw the third one in theaters together last month.

Someone needs to invent leg jackets. How can I keep my legs warm when outside in the cold, but with an item of clothing that can easily be removed once I’m inside?

One of my favorite #Superman things ever, and timely!

Me facing 2025

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 was a very fun movie.

The Superman trailer gave me chills

@sadboybarrett.bsky.social Greg likes oranges.

I’ve decided that every time I see a TikTok or video where I hear the smoke detector beep, I am immediately blocking and scrolling past. Put batteries in your smoke detectors people. 9 volts are readily available.

FANTASY LIVES ON

Split Fiction looks so cool.

@sadboybarrett.bsky.social hey brother. Just felt like saying that I picked up Metaphor because of how well you spoke of it. It’s perhaps my favorite game I’ve played in years. Thanks for the rec!

Also didn’t we kill esports? What kind of “athlete” uses a code name anyway? Put it to bed.

Never heard of any names under “Best Content Creator” so how good can they be? I guess “Games for Change” was shoved out the door in the name of combatting “wokeness.” Why have a Best Adaptation category if you never have more than 5 entries to populate the category?

The dude from Silent Hill 2 for best performance? He said like 11 words the whole game. And what’s the purpose of a “Most Anticipated” category in a year where GTA6 is around the bend?

Game Awards nods are out. I’m pleased to see the love for Metaphor: ReFantazio, but also reminded how meaningless some categories are and how deeply in need the games industry is of a style guide.

Pokémon TCG Pocket going well so far.

Netflix stream worked fine for me, but that fight was boring and rigged. Tyson biting his glove instead of throwing it at his opponent, who spent the whole match with his gloves down. Complete bullshit. And Serrano should have won the other fight against that cheating head butting leprechaun.

Metaphor: ReFantazio is game of the year and it isn’t close.

Update: His health guy doesn't believe in medical science. His law guy is a sex trafficker. His intelligence gal is a Russian asset. You're all caught up.

Conan O’Brien is hosting the Oscars and I don’t know why it took this long for that to happen. There’s nobody more perfect for the job!

Haven’t posted here in a year. Glad to see it’s finally catching on. Threads quickly became a hellscape for engagement bait.

Why have we not gotten a sequel to Crazy Rich Asians yet?!

My Adventures with Superman is a stellar new take on the character. It’s giving Korra/DragonBall/Invincible vibes. Check it out on Max!

Every Pikmin game is a 10

How is this not in What’s Hot? It’s literally fire.

Fuck the Supreme Court man. Here comes another ten years of paying off debt. Fuck this country.

Why can’t I make a playlist on Netflix? I want to plan my own broadcast schedule with a Seinfeld rock block followed by a Chris Hemsworth movie and a documentary about an octopus.

Nintendo really brought it with this Direct. Metal Gear and Arkham collections, Super Mario RPG remake, a new Princess Peach game that looks dope, an HD-2D remake of Star Ocean 2, even that WarioWare motion game looks fun as fuck! And Super Mario Bros. Wonder looks beautiful. 10/10

Happy Father’s Day to all dads except Joe Rogan and Elon Musk I guess. I hope their kids are embarrassed of them.

“Why won’t you debate an AIDS denier who believes WiFi causes cancer on my podcast specifically designed to make dumb dudes feel smart by telling them every conspiracy ever is probably true? Sounds like you don’t believe in the science enough to degrade yourself for my benefit.”

Happy First Day of Emmys Voting to all who celebrate.

Explain your political ideology in a single photo.

With Assassin’s Creed: Mirage, Ubisoft wanted so badly to recapture Assassin’s Creed 2 that they decided to develop it for the PlayStation 3!

Far Cry: Pandora looks pretty cool and Starfield is locked at 30fps. The future of gaming turns upside down in 24 hours.
