Hi, I'm looking to speak to people who have left games journalism in the last few years and have gone onto do something else. DMs are open, or luke@aftermath.site, thanks!

Thank goodness for JSN. There’s just no solution for him.

Jet lag is the worst. Last few days I’ve been borderline falling asleep at dinner time, then completely unable to sleep at bedtime. Then I get so annoyed about that, I become even more awake.

If anybody in my network is looking to do some charity streaming, Gamers Outreach is having its annual Spooktacular Streamathon soon. You don't have to play scary games, and you don't even have to play games. You just need to stream with the desire to help kids in hospitals get access to play. LMK

Goodbye Tokyo! I love you dearly. One of the best and strangest trips here yet.

One last round of beers in Osaka before heading home. See you, space cowboy.

I’m a big Monster Hunter guy, so you’d best believe I had thoughts when I played the expansion for IGN at Tokyo Game show. Check it out!

I often put I various lo-fi playlists on while I work, and a rainy coffee shop in Tokyo channel is a pretty common choice for me. So the fact that I’m at a coffe shop, working, on a rainy day in Tokyo is pretty surreal 😅 (and great)

Proto man is cool. Thats just a fact, and I had the chance to play as him in this preview for IGN. Check it out!

If anyone at TGS has their flight home cancelled by the typhoon, and need a place to stay, please hit me up. We can make room.

Pon (the tanuki) and the spooky baddie from 1998 who’s probably a demon he pulled by being goofy.

That’s so wrong 😂. Already the best photo opp of the show!

With the return of football today I regret to inform you that this will once again be a Seahawks account, with occasional guest appearances by video games.

It’s been too long since I’ve been to a game. What a great way to spend the night before PAX.

Ah Seattle. Home sweet home. PAX time.

Sigh. This genius thinks a website’s “trustworthiness” is measured by how closely its scores align with Steam user review scores. But those are measured by the % of users who give a game a thumbs up - a *completely* different metric. You can’t get much more apples:oranges than that.

Wildfires near my neighborhood in Portland. Growing bigger/more intense. Fire trucks are arriving on site.

Finally finished the Phantom Liberty DLC for Cyberpunk last night. Absolutely exquisite ending. I also really appreciate those moments after the credits, when you have a second to just sit and reflect, before returning to the rest of the story.

I have a bunch of writing to do, and I wasn’t making much headway at home, so I went to my local coffee shop to see if that helps. And dammit that has made all the difference. Which I appreciate, but also drives crazy that it works so well. I’m like Pavlov’s dog, only with more typing and coffee.

Ocarina of time fun fact: The four Poe sisters are named Amy, Beth, Joelle, and Meg. If you’ve read Little Women, you’d recognize those as the names of the four March sisters the book follows.

We are hiring at SQUARE ENIX! I’m on the PR team, but Marketing is PR-adjacent, so we’d be working together a lot. If that is a reason to NOT apply I totally understand. 😂 apply.workable.com/j/05E9F66A58...

Look, all I'm saying is, are we sure there isn't a mosquito with Sam Neil's blood somewhere encased in amber we can use?

I hold Myles in VERY high regard, and strongly recommend giving him a look if you have opportunities for excellent people.

I’ve felt weird talking about it cuz I’m just a freelancer, I’ve written various versions of this post before deleting But I’ve also been affected by the commerce layoffs at GameSpot and, as always, could use more work. I still have some time for appts during SDCC, and for reviews, previews etc.

Brendan is a thoughtful and skillful writer, but more importantly he's a really talented EDITOR. We could all use more editors in our lives, at our publications, etc. If your site/magazine another editor, can't recommend him enough

One of the ways we can try to make things better is by supporting independent outlets and developers.

Between development, media, and the office/administrative teams that are essential to make things work, the forced exodus of talent from the games industry is a tragedy that will have ripple effects for a generation.

Watching Godzilla: Final Wars and I completely forgot Don Frye is in this. Absolutely incredible.

One of the things that really stood out to me about The Relic: First Guardian was its anthology-like approach to storytelling. The areas and bosses have stories, and they aren't buried in the lore tab of some random pair of boots you find. Check out my preview for IGN to see what I mean.

Quick soapbox time for my games media/journalism friends. I read A LOT of reviews, it's literally one of my jobs. Please, when you write them, give the audience your opinion. I read way too many lists of features. People can get that anywhere. What do you think of them? Good/bad? Why? Critique!
