Really enjoyed @mikedrucker.bsky.social’s piece in the new @gameinformer.com. On top of their usual great work, it’s a proper magic mirror moment for the sub.

Season 2 has finally arrived! 🥳 Still need to spend more time with each new title from today, but Dig! Dig! Dino! is oddly addictive... Might not get to the other two. Lolz

Finally fired up Star Wars: Outlaws last night, and folks—I've been craving a story-driven game to really grab me for months. Early hot take: this game might just be it.

Playdate Season 2 is almost here, and honestly, I haven’t been this hyped for a new batch of handheld games in ages. There’s just something special about a device that drops weird, surprising games every week—feels like opening a new pack of trading cards as a kid.

It's been fun seeing all the folks stoked on securing their Switch 2s. I'm looking forward to the system as well, but don't think I'll cop for a few months.

Running Retro Arena on my Anbernic RG ARC-D, and it's a total game-changer. Night and day compared to stock. If you’re rocking one of these legally distinct Sega handhelds without modding, STOP. RIGHT. NOW. This is the way.

Played Tekken 8 for the first time tonight. Got absolutely washed. A humbling reminder that I am, in fact, not built for fighters. Cool game, though. #ButtonMasher

My 16-month-old loves monkeys and has started saying "ooo ooo ah ah!" while playing with Bossk. It's hilarious—I can just imagine how much that would annoy one of the galaxy's most ruthless bounty hunters.

I've been playing a lot of PS3, PSP, and Vita lately. Dope shit.
Was going to formulate some thoughts about capitalism and the constant push for new hardware being silly. But in the end, this skeet (what's a blue sky tweet?) is about enjoying myself.

Always have a good time loading up an old Madden or NBA 2k. Nice little time capsules.

Big SNL fan, but these days it’s more like MESoP—Monday Evening Streaming on Peacock. "Live from New York"? More like "Pre-recorded, Ad-Free, and Asleep by 10." #SNL50thAnniversary

Over the past few years, I've claimed 625 free PC games between Epic and Amazon. That's wild. The dumb part is that I've played o.oo8% of them.
