This year is one of the busiest of my life: selling our home, moving abroad in December, building a house, creating content, traveling, consulting, taking care of family, and expecting our baby boy next month. It gets stressful at times, but at the end of the day, it's all worth it.

Was it protected? Our PC is going to get shipped to the Dominican Republic around the end of this year.

Danny Peña @godfree.bsky.social · 11/08/2026

This was my first time doing this, and I feel really good about it. I won't be able to see both PCs and other items of ours until December, once we officially move to Punta Cana. I think it came out great!

Danny Peña @godfree.bsky.social · 11/08/2026

One thing I've been researching for months is how to pack and safely ship a gaming PC internationally. The moving company is coming tomorrow, and they are going to pack everything inside our house, including both PCs. The only thing I had to do is protect the inside of our gaming PCs.

Big thanks to Konami and Annapurna Interactive for letting me check out SILENT HILL: Townfall early! I played through the opening hours of the game on PS5 Pro, and it grabbed my attention right away.

Danny Peña @godfree.bsky.social · 29/07/2026

Did P.T. inspire the concept for SILENT HILL: Townfall? I asked Jon McKellan (Screen Burn) and Motoi Okamoto (KONAMI) about the influences behind the game's first-person direction. Here’s what they had to say.
