I've now finished Part 1 of Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave for Cai's Path and Dietrich's. Absolutely loving it so far! Three Houses was my GOTY when it came out and remains my favorite game on the Switch. Feel's like Fortune's Weave might be a lock for my fave on Switch 2.

Maybe next time Xbox tries to hype you up for a new game, we can collectively make the effort to remember that they put a trailer from Ninja Theory for a new game IN THEIR BIGGEST SHOWCASE OF THE YEAR WHILE THEY KNEW THEY WERE ON THE CHOPPING BLOCK AND WE CALL THEM ON THEIR BULLSHIT.

After taking some PTO for a 5-day weekend where I played through Wolverine and put a ton of time into Fire Emblem, I'm back at work and just want to be playing Fire Emblem. Go faster, day!

Taking the next few days off work to use up some PTO and looking forward to playing some Wolverine and then a nice long weekend with Fire Emblem.

My stint as an IGN freelancer was incredibly brief, but Seth Macy was an invaluable resource to me & many others who did that work over the years. And somewhere around here, I'm sure I still have a Punch Nazis pin that he gave me at PAX East one year. Love to everyone impacted.

What hits first: Elder Scrolls VI or Starcraft?

Love that the community hangs are still happening! Sad I won't be there for the fun this time around but I hope everyone making the trip has a great time!

I think the wildest thing about the PlayStation Kojima news is that this was the thing they did that whole spectacle drone shot that zoomed out to the Columbia pictures lot. I'll be curious- when the dust settles-to see if this was more about Sony wanting to cut ties on the movie/tv side.

Trevor Starkey @trevorjstarkey.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

Not really much upcoming for me so my Switch 2 might be gathering some dust after the new Fire Emblem for a bit. But happy for the Metroid and Kirby fans.

Trevor Starkey @trevorjstarkey.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

Woke up late. But basically got caught up on the first 25 minutes of the direct within about 5 minutes and seemingly didn't really miss anything of note.

I wonder how many Gold Skulltula locations I'll remember after all of these years.

Just finished the Final Fantasy Resonance demo. Great throwback to the smaller retro entries in the franchise. Looking even more forward to the full game now.

Please be the Disney Imagineering dream game I've wanted for years (something like The Movies/Theme Park + the Disney History; i.e. building and innovating the Disney Parks over time)🤞

I saw some headline or thumbnail that suggested Asha Sharma was playing coy on the notion of whether Elder Scrolls 6 would release on PlayStation and my first thought was "pssshhh, you won't still have that job when that game finally comes out."

Late night about to see The Odyssey in 70mm IMAX (which has been pretty fully sold out 5+ showings a day at the one theatre in Phoenix with the format since release).

Trevor Starkey @trevorjstarkey.bsky.social · 15/08/2026

The new Coco tease for Kingdom Hearts IV last night has left me thinking of my friend Brian "Nabeshin" Jackson, who we sadly lost a few years back. He loved KH and his old twitter account still has the somber, but dark comedy-infused pinned tweet "I died before Kingdom Hearts 4 came out."

Finally saw Brand New Day tonight. And miraculously hadn't really seen any spoilers all week (apart from some of the long-running casting rumors from a while back). Excellent movie! Destin Daniel Cretton has a phenomenal eye for action.

Trevor Starkey @trevorjstarkey.bsky.social · 06/08/2026

Your Netflix rates are constantly going up so they can burn money on nonsense like this: a 6-hour exclusivity window for a gameplay trailer for a game a whole bunch of people already pre-ordered pretty much sight-unseen.

Trevor Starkey @trevorjstarkey.bsky.social · 30/07/2026

Flying out of town for a work conference tomorrow so I won't get to see the big new movie until after I'm back next weekend. Gonna be curious just how quickly all sorts of spoilers flood the internet before I can see it. (Glad that stuff being spoiled doesn't generally ruin a thing for me)

Trevor Starkey @trevorjstarkey.bsky.social · 27/07/2026

Caught the limited engagement of the Hadestown film today. It took me a while to warm up to the soundtrack when I first listened. And I've only seen the show live once. The pro-shot recording was so good and gave me so many extra details and nuance that I'd missed. Absolutely beautifully done.

Trevor Starkey @trevorjstarkey.bsky.social · 21/07/2026

Being an adult today meant realizing I still had vacation days to book over the rest of the year and, since I'm not planning any trips, I just looked at game releases and said, "yeah I'll take a couple days off work...there and... there."

Trevor Starkey @trevorjstarkey.bsky.social · 15/07/2026

After crunching some numbers, I sadly decided I have to forego trying for Kinda Funny tickets today when they go on sale. San Francisco has just become too expensive. But I hope those that DO go have the same sort of experience and friendships that old KFLs gave me & many others. 💙

Trevor Starkey @trevorjstarkey.bsky.social · 12/07/2026

Saw the news last night before going to sleep. The only thing I'll miss is Seth Meyers impression. Lindsey Graham exemplified cowardice and political blustering. I can imagine many lives that will be better with him gone. And the few lives that were better with him alive are also shitty people.

What are the odds our dumbass President doesn't know what his own Vice President's initials stand for? It's absurdly high, right?

PlayStation giving their app icon a GTA VI-themed makeover is giving me some real weird energy. I think the kids would call it "pick-me energy?"

Screenshot of a phone folder labeled "Gaming" with apps for PlayStation ("PS App"), XBOX, and Nintendo Switch. While the latter two match their expected logos, the PlayStation app has traded it's usual blue backdrop for a purple and pink sunset theme with shadows of palm trees, evoking the game art for Grand Theft Auto VI.

What a weird era of tech where being an early adopter is actually the CHEAPEST entry point.

As someone who has never cared too much about graphical fidelity and stuff, I don't know what a Steam Machine would even do for me. Baldur's Gate 3 PC mods is pretty much all that comes to mind and that just ain't worth the price of admission.

Oh my god. After never getting the Persona 4 Golden Platinum on my Vita because of this trophy a decade ago, it looks like this will finally be the run on the PS4 version.

Screenshot of the Hardcore Risette Fan trophy from Persona 4 Golden, with the description "Hear 250 of Rise's navigation lines."

Currently replaying Persona 4 Golden and, honestly, the most pivotal casting is gonna be "how adorable is Nanako?"

Maybe the best thing about retiring from podcasting about video games is not having to come up with new ways to say "fuck capitalism and how it's ruining everything (among everything else)" each and every week.

Sorry, maybe I shouldn't say this but ahahah. I am very angry. So I went to Xbox's Fan Fest event to attend a preview event. And it was the most flagrant display of wealth imaginable. Five stories filled with caterers and hundreds of smiling faces there to assure me of the brand's strength.

They should have announced Ocarina for November 19th.

Trevor Starkey @trevorjstarkey.bsky.social · 07/06/2026

Has Atlus announced the new Persona 4 Revival cast? Because I don't think any of those people sounded like the P4 Golden voices I remember so I'm guessing they recast like they did with P3 Reload?

Trevor Starkey @trevorjstarkey.bsky.social · 07/06/2026

"Xbox Console Exclusive" just means instead of buying your game on PlayStation like I would have, I'll pick up one month of Game Pass and play through the game for $20-ish instead. If I bother at all.

Geoff's shows never really do much for me. I'm of course excited for FFVII Revelation to see how they wrap up this trilogy. But that, Galactic Racer, and maybe Control Resonant and the That's No Moon game Crossfire are probably the only games from the last couple hours that I'll actually play.

Trevor Starkey @trevorjstarkey.bsky.social · 05/06/2026

Geoff: How does everyone feel about [Tupac in a video game 30 years after his death]? Most people: Uhhh... pretty fucking weird Geoff... Handful of people in the Dolby Theatre: Wooooo!

Also, good for Jack Quaid. He must be having so much fun (and he is going to take so many obscenely nerdy photo mode pics of his gelatinous cube guy)!

Had a meeting that started at the same time as the State of Play so I just caught up. A few things that definitely aren't my cup of tea but also a lot of stuff that 1000% is. Wolverine and Laufey will be day one purchases. Kemuri looks like it has some cool style. And Stuntman: Hollywood looks fun.

I know it's all incredibly unlikely, but I would absolutely LOVE to see Austin Creed and Kofi go to AEW, and for Creed to go on his own Kofimania-style singles run where he has a feud with Kenny Omega and kicks out of the One-Winged Angel en route to an AEW World Championship reign.

GTA5 was a normally-priced games that made the bulk of its money from shark cards and the online side of things. Stop with the narrative that GTA6 must be a higher- priced game than the rest of the market and let it make its money the same way.

With how often Trump falls asleep in on-camera meetings, what are the odds that one of these times, he's just not going to wake up but it's going to take like 10-15 minutes before anyone even realizes because that absolutely fucking absurd thing has just been normalized?

Trevor Starkey @trevorjstarkey.bsky.social · 06/05/2026

That Star Fox character/art style is NOT what I was expecting after the recent Mario Wonder and Donkey Kong Bananza looks. Wonder what that rumored Ocarina remake is gonna look like?
