Was playing South Of Midnight on the Xbox this past weekend, and it's a delightful game. Rarely do we see a video game with a black woman protag and majority black characters. It definitely evokes films like Eve's Bayou, Interview with a Vampire, and even Ryan Coogler's Sinners

Rewatched Batman: Forever, and I'm reminded that Val Kilmer was indeed a really good Batman. This exchange is perfect. I wish he'd continued. Also, this was the last time Batman has even been this Horny. Them Bat nipples were extra hard that night! 😭

The First Berserker Khazan so far is really dope! My favorite thing about this is that it mixes souls like and classic traditional action games. It has the fundamental mechanics of souls likes, but the EASY MODE option allows casuals to enjoy this game with a reasonable challenge

I just slayed a monster in #MonsterHunter Rise on my phone through Xcloud and #XboxGamePass this is really dope! I'm officially addicted to MH. I'm playing WOLRD on Xbox and Rise on mobile/cloud. As a new MH player, I'm hooked!

I've put 34 hours into #AVOWED, and I've only just left Dawnshore! So far, this is my GOTY.....Its a Gorgeous game with incredible combat and exploration. So far, the story is intriguing, and I am looking forward to diving deeper. #Xbox #XboxGamepass

Yea, Disney sequels are historically bad and, at the very least, a much lesser version of the first film but still entertaining. #Moana2 falls squarely between. Very mid. I actually dug where it ended, tho. Moana 3 has to be better cause I wanna see where this story goes #filmsky

#GladiatorII was fine. It's kinda hard to side with any of the film's heroes when they're fighting to uphold a system of oppression. So, with no hero or cause to root for, I'm left with Denzel and some dazzling action sequences. The ship battle was underwhelming, tho.

Yea, #WickedMovie was 🔥 in spite of Jon M. Chu. You could litterally replace him and probably get the same result. This flick soars off the strength of its actors and the source material. The story itself is genius and translates very well on screen. (1/3)

This is the same type of ill-advised campaign run that basically nuked the potential of the Xbox One imo. Like I even see myself adopting cloud/ streaming more, but the marketplace is not ready for this to be forced upon it.

Absolutely nothing! I can really get lost for hours in a great RPG. Something about build your own adventures scratches that creative side of my brain.
Who else is playing #DragonAgeVeilguard

So far, I've been really enjoying my time with #DragonAgeVeilguard The combat is fluid and feels perfect, albeit that camera is annoying af..... it's giving flash backs of the awful camera in GOW (2018)
