Doing something insane/dangerous/possibly illegal by playing a game I want to play instead of a game with an upcoming embargo.

I got play about an hour of Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds' Year 2 content at SEGA last week! It wasn't nearly enough time see everything coming, but the new characters and stages were great. The new Duel Mode is also a unique new addition. Full preview: templeofgeek.com/sonic-racing...

Forever Ago is a bittersweet tale of mortality, love, loss, and creating your own meaning. It doesn't overburden you with complex combat or puzzles. Instead, in its simplicity it calls us to look at our own humanity. Our review: templeofgeek.com/forever-ago-...

Here's my Riftbound Radiance preview card! The Empyrean has a big payoff for a big cost and has the new Show Off ability. I can see it being a playable bomb in sealed but not sure it has legs in constructed. Love the art though! #RBRadiance templeofgeek.com/riftbound-ra...

Gears of War: E-Day feels right for the moment, a triumphant watershed moment for a 20-year-old series that still has some teeth. Its campaign is gargantuan, but doesn’t overstay its welcome, packing an emotional core and a bevy of changes and additions. Our review: templeofgeek.com/gears-of-war...

They say you should only compare yourself to your former self, and in that regard E-Day constantly tries to outdo itself - and succeeds.

Hey look, it’s the best summary of current society you can find. You can switch “We Need The Clicks” to “I Need The Dopamine” and it’s just as true. And, if I’m honest, it depresses the fuck out of me.

Studio co-founder Min Kim compared Arkheron's Ascension and Spire modes to Magic: The Gathering formats. Ascension is similar to draft where no two runs are the same, while Spires are constructed formats like Standard, where you build your loadout before jumping in.

Last week I spent a day at Bonfire Studios and got an up-close look at Arkheron. It's a bit of a mash up of a few different genres, but its unique take on the battle royale formula is a promising live service game that I hope gets the attention it deserves templeofgeek.com/arkheron-is-...

Only 1k+ layoffs to go in a 'reset' that is lasting months interspersed with the Kojima deal and pieces highlighting the CEO taking on support tickets. I would say all this does not fill one with confidence of success. But that relies on knowing the real end goal and that still seems up in the air.

I didn't expect my GameSpot debut to tackle neo-feudalism, class solidarity and how The Blood of Dawnwalker's take on power and exploitation makes it a very fitting fantasy for our times. But I'm glad it turned out that way.
