In the world of Red Dead Redemption, regret hangs heavy over the heads of our protagonists. Roads not taken, choices made poorly, lives never lived. John Marston's sins are so great, he can't accept that he'll ever find salvation. What are your favorite moments from Rockstar's western saga?

Across the entire cast of unique characters in Harold Halibut, one of our favorites was absolutely Chris Tinnerbaum! A teacher, a peacekeeper, and a STUD! Who were YOUR favorite characters in this charming stop-motion game?

CONKER’s BAD FUR DAY was one of the last Nintendo 64 games to be released, but its legacy was cemented via its clever and raunchy humor! A cartoon cavalcade of irreverent comedy! Who else had this controversial game on the N64?

It may be worth reminding everyone that, on this social network (unlike the more musky one that it imitates), likes have essentially zero effect on a post's visibility: only reposts do. If a post is worth sharing with others, you should repost it: a like just shows private support to the author.

METAL GEAR SOLID 2 gets rightly praised for accurately predicting the future. But let’s not forget that the rest of the MGS franchise has some poignant writing between all the wacky sci-fi action. Is it possible for connection to emerge from destruction? Otacon’s question feels painfully timeless.

David Lynch wrote and directed some of the most mesmerizing art to ever make it to film and television. His vision has even influenced video games including Hi-Fi Rush and The Legend of Zelda franchise. I’m very sad he’s gone but also grateful to have experienced his work. RIP.

METAPHOR RE FANTAZIO continues the Atlus tradition of well written characters that stand out from their ensembles. Heismay is one of our favorite JRPG characters in recent memory. Shades of Frog from Chrono Trigger! Who is your favorite character from Metaphor?

What's a video game line that went DEEP? GRIM FANDANGO's dark imagery buoys a well-designed world of characters and great comedic writing. And yet, it still finds moments to have characters drop iconic lines that stick with you. #PCGaming #videogames #screenwriting #Lucasarts

What's a video game line that felt TOO REAL?! Harold summaries his workday as: Mid. Even when you live on underwater inside a spaceship on an alien planet, I'm sure we all agree the best part of the work day is when it's over! #screenwriting #indiegaming #videogames #stopmotion

What's a video game line that makes you LAUGH?! They say comedy is subjective, but when it's funny, it's funny. Cyberpunk balances it's huge themes and inventive sci-fi setting with some well-written comedic characters, like good old Ozob! #cyberpunk #videogames #screenwriting

What's a video game scene that stuck with you for hours after? HAROLD HALIBUT plays like a stop-motion film, and has Harold going on some deep, trippy experiences with his underwater friends. We've been thinking about it non-stop since we finished! #screenwriting #indiegaming #stopmotion

What's a video game line that CHALLENGED you? Kratos and Atreus have a lot of heavy one-on-one moments during their family journey in GOD OF WAR. But the heart of all of Kratos' wisdom comes down to one idea: To "be better" than before. #GodOfWar #PS5 #screenwriting #videogames
