Honest to god one of the most insane interviews I have read from any gaming CEO and it’s like a personal hobby of mine.

What the fuck.

Lurking in the half life subreddit these past couple days has been a joy. Pic related

If you're going to steal my video at least edit out the part where you leave in my first and last name in the intro, for fuck sake.

Some other favorites. The style D Star Wars poster might be my favorite piece of Star Wars art

So much of what Star Wars looks like to me is Drew Struzan. Sad to see a legend go

We fluked into wrestlepalooza tickets through my wife’s work this evening. Nice to support some Women’s Wrongs (and Paul Heyman)

The highlight of my morning was briefly thinking they were delaying Metroid Prime 4 into 2026 and launching a Metroid Kart Racer this year instead

Just zipping around the desert in one of these things

Drunk skeeting from the tiki bar to say despite what the comment section will tell ya, Borderlands 3 honks

Also in here is my Greg Smallwood variant which *was* my favorite (before I found that Tim Sale, I can’t stop thinking about how he drew Batman). Enjoying doing this for the love of the game and not for the “🤑🤑🤑🤑”

Also just like a good “Bruce and Clark buddy cop” cover

These past few months I’ve been picking up some books that I read digitally in single issues for the collection. Really excited to have this Evan Shaner and Tim Sale variants of the newer Worlds Finest series (which is one of my favorites)

Been wanting to do this one for a while, Borderlands 1 is one of my favorite games but it's also a game that very obviously "borrows" from Mad Max, Diablo, Tank Girl and one obscure animated short from the MTV Music Awards. It's one of the luckiest games out there, pun intended.

Had a nice afternoon at the Indy Comics and Toy Expo today. Haven’t been to a con like this in a very long time, so it felt good to fill some holes in my younger self’s collection.

“Why are you installing a third version of premiere?”

Been really prioritizing "dream projects" as of late. My earliest notes on Crucible go all the way back to July 2020 (about a year before I even thought about doing Luck Stat) so it's nice to finally have this one out.

I don’t think we’ve talked about it but this is the biggest snub from Mario Kart World
