It's so weird that Street Fighter 6 Season 3 only has 3 characters.

Someone needs to stop convincing publishers that the videogame purchasing audience will have nostalgia for being 17 in the mid-80's. Where is the life is strange game with sum 41 in the soundtrack

"Can we leave politics out of the FGC? (No.)" New ASK PAT is up! Really funny timing on this one but it's less about the modern American political climate and more on the values that underpin what I find beautiful about the FGC. Comments are disabled on the video. www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYP5...

Somewhere someone is writing an incredible article about Arc System Work's path from Xrd Sign > FighterZ > Strive > Granblue > Marvel Tokon over the last 10 years.

Repeat after me: It's. Not. The. Fucking. Tariffs. If you're going to threaten a country's sovereignty, if you're going to lock away our citizens for seemingly no crime at all, if you're going to loosen already-pitiful gun laws, then we're not interested. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

This game is so staggeringly important to me. It really opened this former MK-casuals eyes to how fast and fluid a fighting game can really be, and has caused GG to eclipse MK as my most played FG series (especially if you include strive in the discussion). Also the music rocks Keep on rockin'

8 years ago today, Guilty Gear Xrd Rev 2 was released on PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 in JP. It was developed and published by Arc System Works.

Being a parent means occasionally getting to buy a sonic ice cream for yourself from the ice cream truck. It also means giving it to your kid because they chose a snowcone that was frozen solid. Which also means tossing the snowcone in a blender and adding some rum to it.

Wait, Gears of War on PS5 is just a remaster of the first game? They already remasterd the first game? I was QA on it for like a week before ramping onto Gears 5! THE UNIVERSE: Thomas that was 10 Years ago...

Obligatory election post. Smell you later Pierre

A very, very big week for me.

10 Years of Mortal Kombat X is wild to think about, probably one of the most important games to me in my lifetime.

Whenever anyone asks me "How's the games industry?". But the t-rex is the c-suite

Elbows up, Canada.

Mannnnnnn, I'm big sad. Going to Another Dimension every week as a teenager and buying comics from Riley Rossmo who went on to do cool stuff with Image and DC is some real treasured memory type stuff. The future sucks y'all www.ctvnews.ca/calgary/arti....

Using Anji's counter through Elphelt's bomb super is one of the coolest feelings in videogames (Guilty Gear Strive)

Noticing a fleshlight amongst some litter while out walking my dog was not something I expected to happen this morning. I lived near Hastings in Vancouver for 6 years, not much surprises me when it comes to litter, but that surprised me. Think I'll be taking a different route from now on.

Today in things that don't feel real...

Are you OK?

Finished Mob Psycho 100 last night, it might be one of the best things I've ever watched. You could pick any number of characters from it and it's still a masterful character study of their archetypes. Truly wonderful stuff.

You ever watch a movie you haven't seen since you were a kid (I rarely re-watch stuff, but having a 5-year old causes exceptions), and suddenly realized you must have watched it a LOT more than you thought. Anywho, apparently I can recite Oliver & Company Soundtrack is still great

Hold up, Dragon Ball Daima did WHAT?

This is my favorite genre of comic book character.

We stand with Canada and Mexico!

The first Senators to actually do anything about the Trump admin
