I think a lot of people get into the mindset that "fun" in video games can only come from winning or forward progress, and that shuts the door on so many experiences. I've been on a GnG grind and the BS is a big part of why I think the game is so incredible.

New Blog Post: Why I Love Unfair Traps in Arcade Games People usually dislike hard memo traps in arcade games, or at best think they're "not that bad". I love them, though, and I think arcade games would be worse without them. Here's why: duckberet.com/blog/i-like-... (game: Violent Storm)

Every thinkpiece like this that I've seen about Geller is distinctly about the author's own comfort with the consumption of Jacob Geller Content above all else. Justice must protect the victim, but more importantly, it must allow for the continued creation of video essays about Nintendo Games

My "9 games that shaped me" picks! This was a lot of fun, especially thinking about my taste development being an ongoing journey. Tried to pick a few games from each season of my life

Within a few play sessions away from having the Ghouls n Ghosts 1-ALL in the bag, I can feel it. Once again contending with the upsetting realization that the more I practice doing something, the better I get at it. I will learn nothing from this.

New blog post: How to 1 Credit Clear (1CC) Arcade Games I get asked about this from time to time so I thought I'd write a post about it. There's nothing groundbreaking here, but hopefully it helps make arcade games feel a little less intimidating. They're just games! duckberet.com/blog/how-to-...

Maurice Noble was THE cartoon background designer. I love how much he was able to fuck around around and get so abstractly graphic, yet no one in the audience ever batted an eye because his designs lent so much personality and energy to the cartoons they were used in.

GTA 6 feels less like a game and more some kind of totem for a certain kind of dying gamer identity, that cannot economically or culturally sustain itself anymore. it represents a million different things and seemingly the least important of them is that it is an open world mission based video game

I had the pleasure of noodling around on this game before launch and it's really something special. PD_CGT is on a hell of a run the past few years, can't recommend this game enough.

Not necessarily my All Timers on the platform but I loved all of them so fucking much and they deserve as much visibility as my non-existent platform will afford them
