Just watched Conclave. I’d heard there was a turtle at the end. I was disappointed when it wasn’t this one…

Mark Hamill comes out as a presenter at the #Oscars. Star Wars music plays.

My daughter: “He’s from Star Wars?”

Me: “Are you kidding? That’s Luke Skywalker!”

Her: “He looks more like Palpatine…”

I have not been to a movie theatre in a very long time (the cost just isn’t worth it to me anymore), but hearing the way people are talking about Nosferatu is making me want to.

Just watched Planes, Trains & Automobiles and the realization that I am currently older than John Candy was here is highly disturbing.

Shoutout to libraries, man. I pretty much always have 1 book, 1 movie, and 1 game borrowed. Did you know many libraries have video games? I played the entirety of Elden Ring borrowing it from my local library.

I thought this was a Death Stranding 2 cosplay.
I have to take an annual fire safety training for work, and I am reminded that I asked some of the folks who manage these things how they evacuate the NICU and apparently they have vests you can load up with babies

Diablo 2 update: I let a random number generator decide which build to use this time around. It picked Druid Bear. I played until 1am. Good times.

Diablo 2 Resurrected PS5 is on sale (the game on its own is still $60 but the Prime Evil Collection, which includes it, is $25). My PC struggled to play it smoothly, so I’ve been wanting to pick up the console version. Looks like I found my Christmas game.

I just finished Castlevania (1), which I had never played. I abused save states liberally, and it was still hard. Props to anyone who beat this legitimately.

I love RPG fans, because every time they say that something obscure is one of the best games ever, you either start it and discover the most subversive, well-built game ever played or something where all the dialogue is like "The dark is evil. But the light can beat it. Friendship is good."

You might think that someone today recommending a piece of media made in the 90s is the same as someone in the 90s recommending a piece of media made in the 60s, but here’s why it isn’t: i can still be young please let me still be young

This is such a bizarre choice. Surely there’s time to change this before release?
Elden Ring Nightreign will allow players to play the game in three-player co-op, or as a single player, but not in a duo.

Are you an Xbox fan? Are you sure? Because Microsoft are "redefining what it means to be an Xbox fan" so you might want to double check.

#Balatro is now rated 18+ 🃏

The game's creator fires back:

"Since PEGI gave us an 18+ rating for having evil playing cards, maybe I should add microtransactions, loot boxes, and real gambling to lower that rating to 3+ like EA Sports FC"

Testing out Bluesky to see if it will let me just see posts from people I actually asked to see posts from. You know, like Twitter did once upon a time. Seems like yes? What a concept!
