Learning lines for the stage is much tougher than learning them for screen. 172 lines to memorise along with stage direction 😫

Looking at all the upcoming third party Switch 2 “physical” releases, Stellar Blade looks to be the only game on a card.

What happened to tennis video games? We were awash with them for the longest time and now, just Mario Tennis.

We should probably buy Brobbey so we never have to play against him again.

I’m not really a fan of the GameCube pad but that analog stick is the best. So damn precise.

I want to see @digitaleclipse.bsky.social put out a Housemarque Collection!

Metroid Ravenous, Layton and Kirby were it for me from that direct.

What if the Acorn Archimedes had its own Star Fox? Wing Star is a 90s 3D demo that pushed the system in impressive ways, blending ideas from Star Fox and Afterburner. You can try it yourself too at Games That Weren't.

Just had it pointed out that being a Gooner is no longer being an Arsenal fan, when did that word get corrupted?

Guess this will be announced at the direct today.

Me, @jake74.bsky.social and @liberaljoon.com got together and did an episode talking about handheld gaming as a follow on from our recent DS and PSP episodes. Give it a listen mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/fvx46...

Gaming advertising was different in the 90’s

Surely on Wednesday they will announce a new one?

Honestly after seeing yesterday’s cameo from Gyokeres I think Merino needs to be Havertz’s understudy, the drop off with Gyokeres is far too big.

I’d like to see someone like Rebellion make an RPG/shooter based on Dan Dare. Surely the licensing wouldn’t be too costly these days?

Look at Ocarina of Time, Zelda movie trailer, look at the limited edition console and pro controller, Twilight Princess available now on NSO and close with a logo for the next mainline Zelda coming 2028

Imagine explaining The Big Breakfast to kids today. Well it was a breakfast tv show set in a normal house, multiple hosts, interviews with celebrities on a bed, sexual innuendos all over and two alien puppets that went on to make an album.

They’ve worked on the series since Skyward Sword. It would be weird if they weren’t working on this one.

Without saying your age, what is your favourite movie that came out when you were 20?

So I guess we’re not signing anyone then, our attack is looking worse than last season.

McGinn is one of the most unlikeable Villa players. Should be at Chelsea he’s that much a c**t

Spurs, shit at the back so obviously they’re signing another forward to fix it.

Imagine not liking me and I’m just sitting here wanting a rerelease or remaster of Body Blows.

Appalled at how Arsenal have treated Martinelli
