I just want to lounge at home and play video games.
Me when I end up playing the same Pokemon rom hack 5+ times in a row…

CASTLEVANIA!!! All I wanted from the State of Play was ONE game that I got really excited for. Exceeded my expectations!

I’m five romcoms into the twenty-eight in planning to watch this month, and apparently I need to roll back the “days since I’ve been sad that the 2003 ABC Family movie ‘The One’ has been lost to time” counter back to zero…

Whenever Confetti comes up on my Twice playlist I have to stop moving so I can clearly hear Sana say that she’s so proud of me. 🥹

I’m shooting for 28 romcoms in the 28 days of February! I’ll keep a running thread here of the ones so far.

Giant Bomb’s Blight Club is all well and good, but it definitely has me missing the halcyon days of Game Informer’s Super Replays when people played things they actually wanted to play. 😅

Tomodachi Life looks just as goofy as ever. Can’t wait to grab Living the Dream.

We have Hulu with ads right now and just had a Walmart one with Walton Goggins. I just cracked myself the hell up with “Walmart Goggins”.

For the last few months TWICE has been hitting me like no other musical group ever has. It’s kind of insane.

@giantbomb.bsky.social @grubb.wtf @tolkoto.com Any idea when Fishing Week™️ will be yet?

Don’t worry, I destroyed the beehive!

(game is Far Cry New Dawn)

Ah, yes. My favorite Rare game.

As a property that feels very tailored just for me, it’s a shame we never got a AAA Ben 10 game. I would even settle for a musou!

Kpop Demon Hunters musou when?

You think it will never happen to you…

Also, the Ultimate Steakhouse Whopper is legit.

I absolutely have to share the only other instance I’ve ever seen of someone singing this game’s praises. It’s real good and I feel like no one played it!
🎮 Dungeons of Hinterberg

Ever wondered what would happen if Persona and Classic Zelda had a baby against the backdrop of a getaway in the Alps? 🤣

Well the folks at Microbird Games did and it gave birth to this wonderful game

Dungeons by day and Social Links by night, it's phenomenal 😭
