Video games are fun. Now: market research. Then: podcasts and games press.

Just some top-notch Friday night entertainment going on right now. Feels like an 18-inning game to me.

At an NBA Summer League game, and one player is up to 9 personal fouls. Gotta respect the effort there.

Feels appropriate that this final gift was delivered a few days after the holidays. Fortunately, the late fees were waived!

TEN YEARS AGO TODAY I self-published a silly Kindle book about retro superhero video games. People seemed to like it.

Might as well make it FREE now through Christmas Eve to celebrate 🦸‍♂️ c-bake.com/oldcomicgames

And might as well throw in my celebration of Star Wars games, too 🦂 scorpionvader.com

Always cool to see a Nintendo toy at McDonald’s. Just some odd timing here. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe? A 2017 remake of a 2014 game? Even a decent amount of time removed from the new tracks. I feel like I’m missing something. Anyway, not a complaint, just an observation!

I realize it came out last year, but just now watching Monarch on Apple TV and really enjoying it. I was wondering how they could pull off a Godzilla series and am a little disappointed it’s by not really featuring the big guy but instead the people affected and driven by him. Still, very well done.

Every so often I get to return to my roots, writing about video games. And as someone with a penchant for old-school licensed games, this was so much fun to put together for the Epic Games Store's News section. c-bake.com/EGS-80s90s (Thanks for the chance, @crecente.bsky.social!)
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate leads an avalanche of recent great nostalgia-inspired licensed games

To celebrate the release of #DarkForcesRemaster, my Kindle book celebrating the history of Star Wars games is free today via scorpionvader.com.

Securing the Death Star plans ranks VERY highly on my list of most memorable moments. But where?...

An unexpected and very much appreciated benefit of the kids playing LEGO Jurassic World: Every time they finish a level and go into the menus, the Jurassic Park theme starts playing. Still an amazing and beautiful score some 30 years later.

This is one good-looking book. Worth anything, @ryanhiggins.bsky.social?
Seriously, though, huge congrats! Must feel like a dream come true.

It’s cute that Twitter thinks I’ll be in any rush to update the app and go with their X nonsense.
