Seriously! I know it’s not simple, but surely these companies know that cross-save is the easiest way to get folks to buy a game 2-3 times. Doublely so when it’s an update/port of an existing game that people have already spent dozens of hours in. Witcher 3 being the most recent example.

I've been fully sold on getting DD2:DA for PS5 for months. Now, overnight, I'm sold on Switch 2 instead. NEVER expected that. Thank you for all of the coverage you're doing this season!

Nice. I need to get back into espresso. I’m mostly making hot V60’s, but would love to finally nail a good flash brew method at home. So I always ask when I see someone making iced coffee at home.

Aside from the occasional Emil, of course.

What’s your go-to method for making iced coffee daily?

while crunching, I’d take my daughter to the park as a way to detach, focus solely on her, and clear my head. We took the same walk after I was laid off. She tripped and began crying. Through my own tears I told her, “it’s okay to cry when we fall, but we pick ourselves back up and we’ll be okay.”

I was just about to reply to your first post asking if you think picking up The Collection is a good move right now and considering their plans - sounds like the answer is yes? Also, do you think the returning vaulted content will be added to this collection, or made free overall (I never owned it)?

I hope it turns up. Haha This Untouchables cover art reminds me of Here to Stay anyway because that was the opener for that Live at the Hammerstein Ballroom dvd they did on that cycle, which had the TV set stage design (right?). S tier live show opener. I think they still open with it today?

Alright, so I just got to THAT part in Star Wars Zero Company. Holy shit, this video game. People have been right to say this is some of the best Star Wars media we’ve seen in years.

Dread sounds like the one then. I love Metroid in general, but sort of align with you on Super and Prime. Super is all exploration and while the Prime series is fine, it's not what I want. Dread is combat forward, while retaining the exploration of the series. It's also just so damn cool.

Love it! Thanks for the input. I'm a smidge intimidated by the series mechanically, but it also looks fascinating - beautifully unsettling. They just remastered/rereleased the first trilogy last year, yeah? How are those?

Connor Ewing @connorewing.bsky.social · 08/09/2026
All of your posts about STALKER has made me interested in checking out the series. Any firm recommendation between starting from the first game/trilogy vs jumping in with 2, for a first timer?

100% - I think about many of the songs often. I’m also a big Gray Chapter guy. But yeah, lots of folks don’t want to hear anything outside of the first three records. Which like, fair. Iowa and Vol. 3 - come on. Alllll that said, I did not enjoy the most recent one lol

You know exactly how angry I am about the Id stuff They basically killed the fathers of the FPS genre because they were in-between projects Don't give Microsoft a cent they will pull the stupidest stunt no matter what you do as a consumer

Arkane Studios man, and all the boys and girls they've worked with over the years... Just fucking ridiculous how good they're art is, and always has been. I can pull up any random file, and it will be some GOAT level piece.

asha sharma going "we want 1 billion players a day" a nice reminder that these execs are fundamentally incapable of understanding that their customers do not have infinite money or even just that time is finite. they just think you haven't been fed the right marketing yet to get you on board

There was no greater source of joy than these moments when I was a kid in single parent, also low income home. Even just the chance to browse a video game and not get anything was a treat. I find myself trying to create them for my kid in whatever ways I can today, and recreate them for myself.

When the going gets “tough” for corporations, they show us that any pro-consumer offering they have is not important to them, and they will simply kill it. Anything “nice” they have/do is not out of some virtue or respect for the consumer. It’s only there until they deem it negligible.

Not to mention, cutting off the physical and used markets so they’re guaranteed their full cut of every software sale.

I can’t help but think that part of this is PS looking at the projected long term effects of the components crisis and trying to find every way to cut costs in the next generation. PS6 will cost at 125% more than what the PS5 did, and that’s not including that “pesky 4K blu ray drive”.

Shin Godzilla's theme of a stuffy political old guard being both unprepared and unwilling to handle apocalyptic disaster and effectively forcing a proactive new group to take the reins is, ummm, pretty timely.

The legit Steam key sites are great. Often when a game is on sale on Steam, it’s even cheaper on a key site. Every new Square Enix game is 15%-18% off on Green Man Gaming, along with some other publishers. Most AAA games on sites that that or Fanatical offer pre-order/launch discounts.

Just booted mine to check! Intro cutscenes seem fine so far. There is a weird little flickering along the very edge of the screen in the cutscene, but it's running smooth.

Been waiting for exactly this write up. Thanks, @va11halla.bsky.social! Was really hoping the Steam Deck performance would be improved in the final game, but it sounds like they barely got this running on handheld hardware.

Losing the studios and the games they could one day make at the hand of Xbox sucks, yes. Can’t shake, though, that so many hundreds of people are about to enter a market where they will likely not find work for months. In an economy that’s in the shitter. While investors clap. Decrepit shit, man.
