Our Animal Well Documentary is now available! Thanks to Billy Basso (@animalwell.bsky.social) for entrusting me with telling his story, and thanks to @javedlsterritt.bsky.social for editing it into a wonderful video. Really happy to be making documentaries again and there's more to come!

Today is my last day doing news at @vg247.bsky.social. I've known for a while, and it's not too much of a big hit since it was just Thursdays for me, but I'll miss working with the best team I've been a part of. I truly hope we can work again together in the future when things are less shitty.

Marvel Rivals is churning out new heroes every few weeks, but that didn't stop @wickedcube.bsky.social from creating his own take on Spider-Man villain Doc Ock. I spoke with him to learn more about where the idea came from and some of the other heroes he's interested in. www.ign.com/articles/a-m...

Happy Valentine’s Day to the most incredible person I’ve ever known. You’ll always be cooler than me. I don’t know where I’d be without you, @rollens.bsky.social.

I dug into the Marvel Rivals community over the weekend to see why everyone thinks NetEase is planting fake hero leaks. Is NE actually trying to trick dataminers? I don’t think so, and neither do the folks I talked to! www.ign.com/articles/mar...

Doom Eternal is one of my favorite games so I was worried about Doom: The Dark Ages until I remembered that id is id and can do no wrong. Related: THEY BROUGHT BACK THE FUNNY LITTLE GUY AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN.

Everyone is talking about Switch 2 this, Donkey Kong that, but I’m not seeing nearly enough talk about how Bowser’s redesign has him looking like an absolute UNIT.

Stayed away from Balatro for months because I don’t know…anything about poker. Just picked up the mobile version and it somehow makes two hours feel like 10 minutes what did @localthunk.bsky.social put in this thing.

Post a game you got for Christmas. It was the only thing I asked for that year (2005, probably?). My parents did the Christmas Story gag and whipped it out after everyone else had opened their presents. Not the best game in the world, but it’s linked to a pretty special moment for me.

I’m a big Borderlands guy but have been let down by the last few games. That said, seeing news like this has me suuuper optimistic. Gearbox has some of the coolest people working on this thing. I can’t wait.
