Made a video about SGF. One part industry analysis, one part personal essay, one part YouTube meta discussion, one more thing. Link below:

After 2 months of work, the Clair Obscur Expedition 33 video is here. I interviewed most of the game's senior leadership team asking one simple question: how did you do this? Their answers were inspiring and moving, and it's no surprise that COE33 is as remarkable as it is: youtu.be/mXLOLgC2V2Q?...

Hello, I played Disco Elysium on mobile and it made me spiral about how the internet has ruined our brains. Enjoy! youtu.be/5-Z4EM8EM7Q?...

I replayed every Naughty Dog game. Before we get to their next chapter as a studio, let’s reevaluate their entire PlayStation catalogue. Premiering now: youtu.be/olgVvZLQR6A?...

We’ve been going back and posting video reviews for games we missed after the layoffs/strategy shift and the YT comments have been so shitty. I’ve been doing this so long that I’ve got a pretty gauge on what the audience will dislike but this has genuinely taken me by surprise.

You should check out our Switch 2 unboxing www.youtube.com/watch?v=-MhW...

my hot take is that Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour is really good and if it was reskinned as a Wario Ware game people would happily pay $60 bucks for it

92 pages. Now does anyone wanna wire me a couple million bucks?

Making visuals for this show meant so much to me. Worked with @jeanluc.bsky.social to make something we both wanted GS to become. Even the photography was from my old home I lived in the entire time I worked at the sites. I’m grateful folks saw GS in its most authentic form through this show.

i loved GameSpot After Dark, it was the one podcast i got to host and be on regularly where i really got to be myself alongside my closest friends. i’ve said some WILD shit on it and i regret nothing!! even after leaving, it was where i could be part of GS again for just a moment. hell of a run ❤️

It's with bittersweet feeling, we are sunsetting (or should I say "sunrising") the GameSpot After Dark podcast. It feels like the right time to bring it to an end in its current form. Doesn't mean we're done podcasting however. Exciting new things on the horizon! open.spotify.com/episode/5FdL...

Today was the final episode of GameSpot After Dark. This show was my baby and it will always mean a lot to me. I’m super thankful to all the folks who supported it over the years.💜 open.spotify.com/episode/5FdL...

Time to post it again.

Elden Ring Nightreign is so much better than Dark Souls 2

it’s been said before, but what made the last of us so good was how the gameplay elevated its story. the story by itself is like a mediocre take on the road

my hot take is that season 1 of the last of us also sucked (except for that one episode)

ten years since my first day at GameSpot

i'll take any excuse to talk about the witcher 3

anyway here's the email I sent to jim bankoff last week. i'm still heartbroken. I have been insanely, destructively angry for weeks, and I think I will be for a long time.

Delusion, thy name is Jeff Tarzia. The original video highlighting my harassment was taken down for harassment because YouTube promotes and rewards harassers. Please signal boost this one: www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_js...

One of the best modern Pokemon games held back by its performance. I really hope folks give it a second chance, and maybe even dip their toes in competitive before writing it off.

hating me gets them views here’s my story today 5pm ET // 2pm PT youtu.be/V4cB_g3U-iQ?...
