We rolled a fresh new GO Kart through OffKai Expo and joined @angorazailia.com and @nebanatsuki.com to talk charity streaming with the VTuber community! Catch our recap - https://gamersoutreach.org/blog/gamers-outreach-s-trip-to-offkai-expo-2026

@jasonschreier.bsky.social your YouTube channel my dude is 🙌🙌🙌

The only reason I wanna jump back into Big Walk is to get PlayStation trophies since I played on Steam.

I am unexplainably hyped for the Street Fighter movie and wonder if I could be snuck into the Hollywood premiere. 😂

I wish getting screenshots off the Steam Deck wasn’t so annoying because I wanna post my stupid Big Walk signs too.

I love that Reb is writing the super fun stuff too. MacGuffin. Spadoinkle. Doodad. The red effer that doesn’t light up.

thank you for your input

I tried running after my Olympic Weightlifting class on a bad hamstring on a 90+ degree day, and it was not the business. I see you now, Christian Watson.

As I continue to fight off trolls who hate that I give this game a 3.5, it’s moments in the game like this as to why I have it a positive score in the first place.

Jesse's blog just made me tear up. Big Walk is a special game.

The only thing Aaron Rodgers is good at in 2026 is avoiding defamation and slander lawsuits. And I’m saying that as somebody that’s owned four of his jerseys. And I guess he’s good at 7-day fasts too.

I had a bunch of ESPP shares I haven’t offloaded ever since EA laid me off. This feels like my closure.

I know I’m in the photo, but I won’t be going to QuakeCon—my boss will. 😅 So if you’re going to QuakeCon, say hi to my boss Edwin and tell him what a great job I do for the charity. 🙏

Gamers Outreach is headed to #QuakeCon this weekend! 📍 Find us in the CTRL+QUAKE+CREATE ZONE in Hall F. Stop by to see a GO Kart up close, learn more about how we bring play to kids in hospitals, and say hi 👋😊

There's my actual work. There's making sure SmashPad has stuff scheduled every day. I'm planning my university alumni group's Career Day for September. I have to organize drafts for two Fantasy Football leagues I run. PAX West begins next month, along with the most hellish review season. LFG.

Big Walk. Tomorrow.

I need to get SmashPad on Metacritic, man. Not getting that done in 2027 would be a personal failure as far as I'm concerned.

I liked Beast of Reincarnation, but I wanted to love it. Unfortunately, it was bland in areas where many similar games really excel at.

SmashPad@smashpad.com · 2d ago

"Beast of Reincarnation just has too many problems to recommend it. Beyond the game's stellar graphics and combat, its exploration leaves much to be desired, and it suffers even more from a weak story and a weaker cast of characters." Our review:

I like wrestling. I like Dave. And hell yeah 🇵🇭 Dunno if this would be the right choice though.

Dave Bautista is reportedly in talks to replace Ryan Hurst as Kratos in Amazon Prime Video's God of War TV series. https://bit.ly/4fCaNh5

This was an Instagram post about Comic-Con. 🤣

Oh hey, look, I’m finally getting my first bit of hate comments for reviewing a video game. But at least he looks like he actually read it. 🙏

I love that Nintendo is the only company that can get away with this and still have millions of views on whatever it is they're doing.

I’ve got a couple reviews going live today. First up? Big Walk, which I wasn’t as high on as others in the industry.

SmashPad@smashpad.com · 2d ago

I enjoyed my time with Big Walk, but I don't ever want to play this kind of game ever again. It's an easy recommendation if you have more than one friend down to play with for the more than 15 hours it takes to beat it, but to many people, those are few and far between.

Better than the OG

The most fun I’ve ever had in a podcast is doing Fantasy Critic stuff. That said, emailing people about scores is about as stupid as getting in Kyle Pitts’ DMs for not catching enough passes and people that do that deserve the shame. It’s your fault you drafted that game/player. Deal with it.

do not do this

Roman vs. Seth at SummerSlam is an all-time banger, but people are gonna bitch and moan about Dean Ambrose or The Rock not being there and telling us that Triple H sucks.

I take the plaza near my house for granted. We have a Chavez Supermarket, two of the top 5 banh mi spots in San Jose, my favorite Filipino spot, a Round Table, a McDonalds, a Baskin Robbins, and a 24 Hour Fitness. And I only really go to two of these places on occasion.

I’ve always been a Garfield guy, but Tom Holland, you are my Spider-Man.

If I’m evil because I enrolled myself in ESPP while I worked at EA and never sold my stock because I’ve been waiting for it to rise, might as well embrace the heel turn. In all seriousness, if you ever work at a company with stock options — take the damn stock options.

I love getting called a “WWE Mark” when I’ve been to 3 Double or Notnings, a Dynamite, a Collision, Revolution, and have been to every NJPW show that came to the Bay Area. I’m not shy about it either. They’re all on my gram, fam. I’m more open than most. 😂

Damn. This is dope but not $200 dope.

The LEGO Donkey Kong Arcade set is out tomorrow, and you can still reserve one for $199.99. I played with it at SDCC, it's pretty dope #ad Amazon: https://zdcs.link/Q43Awy LEGO: https://zdcs.link/aRA01V
