Somedays I really hate living in the midwest. Like the past couple of days. This heat suuuuucks

It's so nice getting validation

GTA 6 is set to release next year with its story in place, but originally, it was slated to be quite the dark tale. youtu.be/OGfH_kWz5w0?...

A source tells us that Meta is set to shadow drop an Xbox branded Meta Quest 3S next week, which comes with an Xbox wireless controller and a Game Pass subscription. www.gamesandwich.com/news/source-...

Donkey Kong Bananza is just going to end with a new city being established at a certain location called New Donk City with Pauline living there

Here's your reminder not to share anything posted by the worst people you see on social media. Not even a screenshot. Don't feed into their awful minds

Trying out a little different kind of stream today. Let's talk about video games. Bring your topics and let's have a discussion. Your favorite games, the future of consoles, or anything else pertaining to games are welcome. www.twitch.tv/gamesandwich...

Are you as excited for Donkey Kong Bananza as Kevin? Check out his breakdown for the Direct that happened this morning www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRIw...

Just finished up a stream for FBC Firebreak for @gamesandwich.bsky.social and holy crap that was a ton of fun! Really enjoyed it

Overwatch 2 Season 17 is set to debut on June 24 with map voting, the new map Aatlis, and new heroes and maps in Stadium. Here's the full breakdown on upcoming content: www.gamesandwich.com/news/overwat...

I reviewed these games over the weekend and while there are patches of fun, only really the hardcore Gex fans will love this. Also, did you know the third game ends with him having sex with a real life playboy model? There's multiple things that haven't aged well

The lead designer for the first Bioshock held an AMA on Reddit and shared some very interesting tidbits about the classic game while it was in development. www.gamesandwich.com/news/bioshoc...

GameCube is my favorite console of all time, so there's definitely more than five I want to see added to NSO

So when's social media going to get cool again and let us connect a single song to our profiles like MySpace back in the day?

@kloonair.bsky.social reviewed Alien Hominid HD and found it to be brutally tough but still filled with a lot of charm and fun. Check out the review here: www.gamesandwich.com/reviews/alie...

I agree that Mario Kart World's free roam is very boring and underutilized, but the biggest crime the game does is still not have a simple party system for going into games with friends. In 2025, that's unforgivable. You can work around it like in MK8, but that doesn't make it ok.

Stop me if you've heard this before, but the development behind a Ubisoft title had plenty of struggles, many coming from a team of higher-ups that couldn't agree on a direction for the game.

The Switch 2 is now Nintendo's fastest selling console, surpassing 3.5 million in four days. That is over double what its predecessor did in the same timeframe and is already over 38% of the Wii U's lifetime sales. www.gamesandwich.com/news/switch-...

PlayStation's future for game releases is murky at best. Is it time for PS5 fans to worry? youtu.be/spBAOLd6CW8?...

Dead by Daylight has had discussions with Disney to put Darth Vader into the game as a killer and the community has conflicting thoughts on that possibility. www.gamesandwich.com/news/dead-by...

I just bought some wireless earbuds for running, and they say noise canceling, but I didn't believe it. Holy shit these are impressive. I never imagined devices like this could shut out the outside noise so much. I'm blown away right now

I'm going to be very disappointed if Playground Games haven't been putting everything into Fable to just make another Forza Horizon.

Xbox showcase games that stood out to me: Outer Worlds 2 Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy Super Meatboy 3D Clockwork Revolution Grounded 2 Keeper Kinda sucks no Fable update, but hopefully, we get that later this year

Just dropping this here from earlier this year where people told me I was out of my mind www.gamesandwich.com/features/obs...

Sure, Xbox is having a great year for releases, but let's talk about Obsidian with 3 releases. That's insane

Clockwork Revolution looks so impressive. Can't wait for it

YES YES YES YES I LOVE THESE GAMES

Games that caught my eye at SGF: Sonic Racing CrossWorlds Mouse Marvel Cosmic Invasion Felt that Boxing Killer Inn Out of Words Mina the Hollower Dying Light The Beast Scott Pilgrim EX Into the Unwell Resident Evil Requiem Outside of those.... I'll just say a lot that doesn't personally interest me

Tune into the Xbox showcase on Sunday where they'll reveal the next Call of Duty, made by a solo dev and 2,999 of his friends

Want to see some fun Reddit posts? Go on over to the Silksong subreddit and see how well people are taking Deadpool dunking on them lol

Good fake out there Capcom. You got me

That Splitgate guy completely turned me off from wanting to play his game. What a douche

Hmm, not the best SGF so far, huh?

I am huge into Scott Pilgrim right now. If anyone knows what PR is working on Scott Pilgrim EX, please let me know!

As noted by @kloonair.bsky.social, putting Don't Stop Me Now in any gaming trailer makes it look better than it probably is

There are more changes to the voices you love in Mario games. Samantha Kelly, the voice of Princess Peach and Toad, says those roles have been recast. She also does not appear in the credits for Mario Kart World. www.gamesandwich.com/news/princes...

With how much shit we've given Nintendo in the past for not having enough stock at launch for very anticipated releases, I think they definitely deserve some praise for how they made sure they had enough for the Switch 2. I haven't seen anyone say they can't find the console if they want it.

Made a sandwich in a rush before a match started. Got back to my seat as it began. Worried myself because I had nowhere to put said sandwich because I momentarily forgot that plates are a thing. Good thing I live alone and no one will ever know I did that.
