NHL 26 Review - IGN
www.ign.com
It’s been kind of a whirlwind couple of weeks, and I can finally talk about one of the highlights: I got to review NHL 26 for IGN! If you’re on the fence about whether to buy this year’s game, check it out!
Pokémon Pokopia being a Game-Key Card release is ridiculously irritating.

Rolled credits on Pokémon Legends: Z-A. Good stuff. Was taken aback by that ending.

Bob’s Burgers remains the most ridiculously consistent show on television. This week’s Zeke focused episode added a nice layer to the character. Also, I’m pretty sure his date in this episode is a girl I used to go out with.

Like I was saying the other day, Pokémon Go has suddenly got way more generous than at any point since I’ve been playing. Free storage space is now available in the in-game Shop through 11/30, so go get it!

sort of incredible to read a review that doesn't just made a vague nod at AI being bad, but actively reckons with the ways in which falling obsessively to AI usage actively obliterates the artistic intent and integrity of the work you've made.

“A.I.?” More like, “ayyy, I don’t want to use or buy this product because you refuse to pay people and want to steal their work.”

A focus on games from Japan? Not gonna lie, that’s much more exciting to me than the usual State of Play, though I’d love to know what’s up with Insomniac’s (maybe happening?) Venom.
PlayStation State of Play Japan announced (Nov 11th, 2 PM PT) buff.ly/htde0cy
More than 40 minutes focusing on games created in Japan and across Asia, alongside a few other exciting update.

One thing I really liked about TAHK0’s takes is that they often help me appreciate things more. This is a really cool thing I hadn’t considered, and it does make me like Mega Starmie more.
mega starmie is one of the most “pokemon” pokemon designs when you realize it’s VERY classic sci fi

Hochul has stepped up in a very big way in 2025. While so many Democrats are failing to meet the moment, she seems to understand the gravity of what’s happening.
Interesting that NY gov Kathy Hochul felt compelled to put out a statement against Dems' deal to end the shutdown

Lot of smart people in the Kalos region, I have to say.

This is the job of gaming coverage sometimes. My first 2 years at ComicBook, I got stuck with a couple pre-release interviews. Neither excited me, but when you’re covering a game you won’t be playing, you try to be as fair as possible. One of those games was a big flop. The other was Genshin Impact.
Me thinking about Nintendo Power having to do multi-page exposes on the lamest movie tie-in shovelware games you've ever played

Yeah. Who knew Schumer’s crappy offer the other day would actually be better than what these cowards are caving for??

Anyway, between the government and layoffs and football and everything else, we could all use a timeline cleanse. Here’s my three-year-old autistic child looking out at snow. She was delighted and it was pretty fantastic.

Look, 2025 has been an absolutely terrible year for me, and I really need sports to not contribute to that.

This is one of the worst Bills games I have ever watched and I think this is at least the second time I’ve posted that this season.

Literally nothing going the Bills way. Every conceivable bad bounce working in Miami’s favor.
This is one of those games where just nothing is going the Bills’ way. Incredible drive and no points. Sigh.

Stuffing is one of my favorite things about Thanksgiving. My grandma’s stuffing was something I looked forward to every year. She passed over 10 years ago, but my mom developed her own recipe over the years that I just love.
stuffing or no stuffing?
keep that bullshit off MY plate.
