Love that all the UK gaming shitposters who often have nothing to post other than going after low-hanging fruit are satirizing themselves in having an apparently uncontrollable need to post about how happy and holier-than-thou they are about England's football team losing.

Sorry I'm kind of going insane after years of watching people who should be smarter becoming further and further immersed in delusion because capitalist rhetoric encourages a faux savviness that abandons humanity and the tangible conditions we can easily look into.

Don't let the $80 price tag ($100 for all the content) and lack of physical release distract you from the fact that Rockstar Games will be the defendant in a court case (in the UK) after attempted union busting via firings and blacklistings.

I'm not fucking kidding when I say that this is the line of thinking and conversation my brain has that keeps me going.
The "daring today aren't we?" SpongeBob SquarePants meme format where the fish ordering insists on hope in the face of Squidward's insistence on the inevitability of death and losing one's way.

When will we begin to refer to "slugging percentage" to what it actually is, a slugging AVERAGE. Same for "ground-rule doubles". That ruling is universal for all stadiums (picture a ball bounding over the "Green Monster"), it is an AUTOMATIC double. When will the madness end?

Can't believe that the top comment on the The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (Remake) thread on Reddit was something like "Wonder if they'll do Majora's Mask too?" The Nintendo Adult will never be satisfied until they simply live in a simulacrum of how they remember their life at 12 years old.

I don't comment on discourse but once again, it you equate everything with sex on some level you need to look inside yourself and improve. You are projecting that out into the world, and perpetuating the idea that it is the default for everyone else in the world is incredibly pathetic and sad.

Interpreted "best story" as "best narrative"...probably had 2-3 games in mind for every spot and just had to give up and pick one. Did my best to not select the same game twice, but OMORI and Baten Kaitos: Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean were hard for me to hold down to two appearances.

Funniest things about Pokemon Presents: 1. How many inane nonsense games that somehow don't cannibalize the franchise. 2. How badly they think we want to listen to chiptune music in the most inconvenient ways. 3. Unnecessary "Not actual gameplay footage" for the photorealistic room.

The apathy towards the complete and utter moral corruption at the highest levels of power are a direct result of a populace who themselves have been driven to apathy by lack of exposure to art. Without art to establish a moral center or ethical code in oneself, apathy is the only possible result.

Really really hoping Sony is dumb enough to release a PlayStation 6 in 2027 that costs $1200 with The Last of Us Part I and The Last of Us Part II with slightly more raytracing as the "killer app" and it absolutely obliterates the AAA dev space.

Sucks that there's a contingent of humans out there whose entire life revolved around waiting for Silksong and then they played it and beat it and their lives didn't change so when TGA didn't affirm to them that Silksong changed the world forever they had to lash out at other people.

i’m setting you free. i’m releasing you from the discourse
4 panel comic

Panel 1: 
Red Guy looking way way too happy yells “Hey Guys! Is Die Hard a Christmas movie?”
Blue Guy next to him calmly says “Shhh”

Panel 2: 
Blue Guy tenderly puts his arms around Red Guy and says “You don’t have to do this”

Panel 3: 
Blue Guy still holds Red Guy tightly and repeats “You don’t have to do this every year”. Red Guy begins to break.

Panel 4: 
Red Guy dissolves into Blue Guy’s embrace, sobbing. He finally feels the weight of Christmas Discourse lifting from his shoulders. He is finally free.

Only voted in categories I felt like I knew enough nominees well enough. As much as I loved Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, I have difficulties calling it "indie". Same thing with Hollow Knight: Silksong and Hades II.

I honestly don't understand with the sheer number of good games that come out every year the past decade or so how anyone plays enough games from [current year] to actually properly evaluate a "Game of the Year". I have played 2 games that actually came out this year.

My ★★★ review of Donkey Kong Bananza (2025) on @backloggd.com : If *Donkey Kong Bananza* was the first game of its kind, I may have found more to enjoy. Unfortunately, Nintendo seems to have a formula in place for some of its flagship characters/franchises, and ... bckl.gg/ot5U

I hate it when someone will post a fun little conversation starter like "what's your favorite ice cream flavor?" And someone has to respond with like "oh this small batch toasted basil and amaretto date gelato with a bourbon infused balsamic swirl at Avvone Glace in LA" Just say "cookie dough"

Nintendo's hubris is at an all-time high: thinking people will pay to relive Virtual Boy, paid DLC announced before a game is even out (Pokemon Z-A), slapping an unnecessary open world onto Prime 4, literally copying Minecraft when they're suing other people for patent infringement. Wow.

To honor Ozzy's larger-than-life rock and roll legacy, we're making Brütal Legend *FREE* on itch.io: doublefine.itch.io/brutal-legend But this incredible deal will only last for 666 minutes, as the prophecy foretold. So get yourself clicking, before it disappears like a demon in the night... 🤘 🖤
