I underestimated how much I would like the writing in Galactic Racer. Turns out "what if Lance Stroll was a fish and hated you personally?" Is a compelling hook

Mmm, I might stop in and do a little tourism but avoid getting stuck in. Deadlock on the other hand......

There's nothing like becoming violently ill to connect you to your place in the historical lineage. I understand how my medieval ancestors could get the flu and think "Ahh yeah, the devil is working his magicks to send me to hell"

Rude that Valve doesn't drop Deadlock updates after work hours

Our launch trailer is entirely in Black and White. Because marketing isn't real, we wanted it to look like a short of the period film.

It is my (possibly naive) hope that the Gamers see their favorite hobby being ransacked by corporate ghouls and start supporting unions, social safety nets, and the breakup of megacorps.

Thousand Hells is a very cool sort of combinatorial RPG generator. My first heist was to try and break a guy's girlfriend out of Howl's Moving Maximum Security Soul Prison wandering through a Hieronymus Bosch wasteland hell. Great stuff

The Plague Tale games have been on my backlog for years. I really need to play them one of these days/months/years

I opened up this website to post almost exactly this, but you beat me to it.

I assume this is what it's like to be a Kingdom Hearts fan, whenever a new samurai shows up I'm jumping off the couch like AAAAH IT'S GANRYU!!

Goddamn Onimusha rips, but paying for Mifune's likeness and not basing it off of the age when he played the character is jarring

reasonable, tbh

That anyone would *willingly* give up one of the experts in hardware in 2026 is a masterclass in buffoonery. Any website worth anything would do well to pick Bo up and let him make sense of this insane market for their viewers and readers.

I was annoyed by how shooty the 3 remake was after how much I liked the 2 remake and realized I retraced the discourse 30 years later lol

3 gets pretty shooty, but it definitely grows over time

He Who Watches has joined the club of puzzle games that make my brain feel like a dog in a hot car. My partner commented that I was making sounds like a microwave as I sat there going "hmmmmmmmmmm"

You may be right, but they were fully servicing me, a fan.

Ok I hit credits. Re9 feels like the re6 bill finally coming due. The arc of Resident Evil is long, but it inevitably bends toward nonsense.

Spencer Hayes @spnkr.bsky.social · 13/09/2026
Every Resident Evil turns into a bad action game at the end but this one is so much longer and less integrated into the rest of the game than the others. Really baffling decisions here

Spencer Hayes @spnkr.bsky.social · 13/09/2026
I'm late to the RE9 party, but stapling a 6/10 game to the end of your 9/10 game is certainly a choice

Same, this and a new Yokai Watch getting announced has me feeling a lot of anger and betrayal. That a team capable of making things I like so much would pivot to something I fundamentally disagree with is such a bummer.

I need to remind everyone, especially after their presentation today. Level-5 has been very openly using Generative AI in their game development and are proud of it. This includes their newly announced titles such as New World of Steam, Yo-Kai Watch 2 and Curious Village Remake.
