Reminder that Physint was being developed with the full backing of Sony's resources, including Columbia Pictures, at their disposal to suddenly have the whole funding swiped + project threatened with cancellation. Whole situation sucks, even the solution that allows the studio/game to still live.

While I am on board with boycotting Xbox (and no, I don't own one, or Game Pass), I would like to point out that Sony cancelled the game, months into development. If Kojima DIDN'T find another publisher, writing off the game was an existential risk to his company and, you know, employees.

There are plenty of people in the video game industry who don't do enough, or any, charity work. Here's your chance to change that! Boost this, offer to come hang during our 9/19 IRL stream and bring good vibes, and most importantly, DONATE.

Mark your cals! I'm hosting a back-to-school fundraising stream on September 19 on @nyvgcc.bsky.social's Twitch. We'll have industry vets teaching us all about level design, Pokemon, and more. Plus speedrunning and live in-person competitions! Fundraising starts now! tilt.fyi/ZEolsTfqdD

Giving this a quick signal boost for the #wrestlesky audience! Was really excited to have gotten the chance to work on this and write about one of my all-time favorite wrestlers.

Surprise surprise! I got my first article up for @wrestlepurists.bsky.social where I talk about the underrated versatility of Kazuchika Okada as a performer and how that has perfectly played into his transition into AEW after so many years at the top of NJPW. wrestlepurists.com/from-njpw-to...

Seeing my FGC peeps talking about their trips to @ceogaming.org this year has been really cool, and I'm glad everyone had a good time! Makes me wish I could've gone to catch folks, but perhaps one day.

Gonna get my shot off while FGC folks are busy at CEO. Marvel vs. Capcom 2. IMO, it's a glorified official MUGEN that is busted mess, has a boring soundtrack, dull stages, and lacks personality and flavor beyond "Let's throw all these sprites we made over 6 years into a game". Far prefer MvC1.

No hate, no dogpiling, just curious. For me, it's Skyrim. Don't know why, considering it should be exactly my kind of game, but it just didn't click for me.

No Frames Given - Friday ✅ TSB at Next Level for VF5Revo - Saturday Afternoon ✅ ParagOnline for SF6 - Saturday Night ✅ NYC Tekken at Next Level - Sunday Night Been a fun weekend back on the comms grind~

Getting clips to update my commentary reel, and I've been thinking more and more about making a guide of some commentary suggestions, dos, don'ts, etc. Had a lot of writing ideas on my mind + ways to keep busy, and providing a resource of a sort to the field seems like a way to go.

Seeing people upset that the new DLC expansion for #DBSZ isn't included as a free update or the Ultimate Edition. I know people have a thing against Sparking Zero for some reason, but expecting 30 characters, 4 stages, and a whole new mode completely for free is... wild, no?

Played the Marvel TOKON Open Beta at 3AM in a hotel in Binghamton this morning. Not risking online play here. I'd really love to write about this game and cover it somewhere both from my PoV as a commentator/analyst in the FGC and from the artistic PoV, so if you have an opening, hit me up!

The key part of GDQ's statement here IMO. Seems very clear that the story of SNK's ownership might've missed their purview, which makes sense if you're outside of certain bubbles. Rough spot for all involved, but a great move by GDQ regardless.

Saw discourse about Omega/MJF's 1-Count spot. The big thing that I want to add is that Omega's 1-Count spots work so well because they're less "adrenaline" and far more spite-fueled. Every instance of it can be seen as an insult to Omega, so the kickout is a "Screw you" right back. #AEW

With physical games going to the wayside, it feels so weird to be losing what was a cornerstone of my childhood. Coming home from school one day to see a Toys R Us bag that had Pokémon Gold and Silver is an enduring memory. A deep sadness in my mind that we see or experience less moments like that.

Earl Grey. Hot. @diyfgc.bsky.social

Got two. Hope to see them both again at some point!

Recovering from a fantastic weekend @diyfgc.bsky.social, and on an emotional level, there's been a lot going on. It was an honor to be live on comms for Tekken 8 Pools alongside @helstnyc.bsky.social to provide the soundtrack for that portion of the evening!

Getting ready to head out to @diyfgc.bsky.social ! Looking forward to seeing some familiar faces and getting to work on a larger scale event offline for the first time. Surreal to think about, but hey. I made it. : )

The more RGG Studios talks about this topic, the more they just keep digging their own hole here. There's a point where you start to wonder what is going on with the creative brain trust over there. lol

Stranger Than Heaven will explore Tupac's "potential future" if "he was still alive now", according to RGG studio head

Stranger Than Heaven's Tupac Shakur cameo will "try to envision who Tupac might be now", RGG Studio head Masayoshi Yokoyama has said.

Looking forward to seeing my people at @diyfgc.bsky.social tomorrow! I'll be doing comms for T8 Pools at around 5PM EST over at www.twitch.tv/houseof3000 alongside @helstnyc.bsky.social, but I'm gonna be there much earlier to catch up with everyone! Hope to see some of you there! : )

The announcement was made official, so I can promote it here! I will be doing live commentary for Tekken 8 for @diyfgc.bsky.social this Saturday! This'll be my first big event, so I'm excited and looking forward to being there. Six years in the making, and I feel like I've finally arrived. : )

Shida/Stat's Street Fight - A reminder of the level of talent on the AEW Women's Roster when allowed to be given the space to go full tilt. Crazy good match. Stat kicking out with a kip-up made her feel like a damn Terminator. #AEWCollision

Do people still use Blogspot/Blogger? Like... is that still an accepted thing? Asking for a "me".

Ash's writing surrounding the Yakuza/LAD series and RGG Studios' numerous missteps is succinct and poignant befitting a published author in their own right. If you're looking for someone with a keen eye for critique that spares not even her favored games from her searing gaze, bring her onboard!

A person seeking to live their life as their true selves should never be seen as a form of terrorism. It's laughable especially in light of the very real terrorism worldwide that people live through. Trans Rights Are Human Rights. 🏳️‍⚧️

The one thing the Mixtape discourse really makes me somewhat sad about is that it's overtaken Dead as Disco on my feeds. Got my hands on the game today, and it's everything I was hoping for from the demo version I played thus far. Excited to dig into it!
