Been spending the morning introducing my daughter to all kinds of music. From Oasis and U2 to Madonna and the Gap Band. Plus some of that sweet Matchbox Twenty “dad rock”. Nothing like physical media 😎🎶📀

🎮 New Video is Live! 🎮 I wasn’t planning to make a video on the recent PlayStation news, but I care too much about physical games not to. Tune in to hear my thoughts on the subject! LINK: youtu.be/Q-v0_eYXpuY

🎮 New Video is Live! 🎮 An updated PS5 Collection video with all my recent additions. RPGs, 3D Platformers, gated exploration gems, and some questionable jank. Consider tuning in to find a few new recommendations! LINK: youtu.be/ppW7nn_8tKs?...

Rolled credits in 007 First Light! It's not my GOTY, but it's a fantastic action game that doesn't overstay its welcome, nails the Bond character, and shows that IO Interactive can do much more than make Hitman games. Looking forward to a sequel! #JustBeatIt @polykillpodcast.bsky.social

There are moments in Resident Evil Requiem where I have literally screamed out loud. There are other moments that are so absurd and over the top it feels right out of a Fast & Furious film. This game continues to surprise in the best of ways, I cannot wait to keep playing!

Sometimes I feel legally obligated to play a game, like Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. A collectathon 3D platformer based on the 1964 classic…and it’s actually good! Who doesn’t love a little seasonal jank? #JustBeatIt @polykillpodcast.bsky.social

2025 was a year where I played a lot of older games via the Classics Catalog, still enjoyed plenty of new releases, and beat far more games than I usually do. Here’s the total list. 42 beats!

I love revisiting games that I initially dropped, and after a 2nd attempt, it’s as if I’m playing a different game. The gameplay clicks in a way it didn’t previously. The story gets its hooks in me. I can’t say confidently I know exactly what’s going on in Death Stranding, but I do love this game!

I only made it 8-10 hrs in when I originally played Death Stranding, but I really want to play the second game. Before we do that, time to restart the original and play it to completion. This opening is still just as wild as the first time I played it 😅

🏆 New Video is Live! 🏆 I share the final 10 Platinum trophies I earned in 2025, all of which were part of the Classics Catalog on PS+. You’d be surprised how many great games there are, especially platformers. Tune in below to hear all about it! LINK: youtu.be/dGz5ia1Fa5c

My Yooka-Laylee and Spyro collection got a bit bigger recently. A good friend painted this beautiful photo of my 3D platformer pals. Couldn’t be happier with the final result. Thank you, @tvandlust.bsky.social ! 💜💚

Absolutely incredible! I asked Craig if he could do a follow-up painting to something he did for me several years ago (pictured below). The only instructions I gave for each was “a picture of these two characters!” He crushed it both times. Thanks Craig! 💜

My Black Friday pickups! Plus, the Analog 3D finally arrived! I’m planning to focus much more on my Nintendo backlog in 2026, and the Analog 3D and Switch 2 will certainly help with that. I’ve already cleared a few games from the Switch backlog, so off to a decent start!
