The real Yuma was you're failure to accept that you triggered that arrow trap and you need to own it.

What kind of shitty dad were you man!?! Actually, if I remember right some of the "be a good dad Geralt" moments are really hidden and obfuscated and what seems like the obvious good-dad choices aren't as obvious as they seemed.

PUBG (the best accronym for a game ever) seems like it would be kinda bunk to play but the game is gold in the twitch streaming world. I watch the guys over at Vice's Waypoint pretty regularly as they play it just because they seem to be pretty bad at it and they're funny.

If you don't mind buying game consoles that might have drugs hidden in them you can pick up a PS4 for like 125 bucks these days on craigslist. Also the PS4 is 100 percent the way to go. It's just got the better exclusives at this point. I mean, even if it didn't and every game except Bloodborne was also on the…

We're flying into Dublin and dinging around for a few days, then we're going to a village near those Cliffs of Moher(sic?) for a day or two and then finishing with a few days in Belfast where we're staying with distant family members. Any tips for the emerald isle I would love cuz all I have right now are generic…

Yeah old-school pokemon battles can take a stupid amount of time it seems like. I don't know if it's just that era but it seems like wild pokemon will just spam their debuff attacks until your moves are just barely denting them. But you don't want to swap because you want to cram your experience in just the one…

While I've only completed the first two chapters, I can say that the first two chapters of KRZ are a real treat. I made the mistake of buying the game when it first dropped though way back in January 2013 so sadly the long droughts between chapters is what slowed me down. Shouldn't be a problem for new players…

So I've been on a vintage games binge now for a while and Tekken 3 worked it's way into rotation just in time for me to realize there is a sequel about to drop. The last Tekken I really cared about was Tag Tournament 1 and after that it got kinda muddled for me. Tekken 3 though is probably the perfect distillation…

I thought the military guys came home and became the vigilante fans of the first game's protagonist. Also I'm still confused why they were fighting Russians in Hawaii but damn was it fun.

Kentucky Route Zero is strong as hell with the only downside being that the development time between chapters has the games feeling less and less related as the story progresses. Still, that ending to Chapter 1… perfect Twin Peaks vibes.

Some people argue that the Witness would be better without the island if it were just the puzzles and to those people I say, go jump in a lake. The island is the secret star of the whole show. I would have play sessions of the Witness where I didn't solve a single puzzle but walking around the island was such a…

I always just assumed Zordon was an alcoholic. He does look pretty blotto in that tube.

Jesus you really kept up with that Enter the Gungeon running. I never even beat the Drag-gun. Kudos to you. I love the game and the gameplay is still super tight but it just felt like it took a lot of time to get through the first few floors and a few dumb moves could cost me a whole run.

Hotline Miami 2 was unfairly dismissed on release I felt because it didn't copy all the gameplay beats from the first. The emphasis on luring enemies and knowing your characters static skillset instead of choosing between masks was a choice that I think kept the game fresh.

I beat every boss in the game (including double moon final boy) besides that dude with a flipping placenta as a weapon. Son of Kos or whatever. Fuck that guy.

Mark Brown has a channel called Game Developers Toolkit that really isn't about game dev itself but analyzing what makes a game work. His editing is also the best you will find anywhere. His series on Zelda Dungeon Design will blow your gosh darn mind.

The combat is the one thing that really piques my interest in Horizon. It seems like much of the game and the world map have that very Far-Cry-ish "go here, do this, climb this tower and now you can see all this other stuff you have to do" gameplay. But watching gameplay videos I have been attracted to how involved…

Of all the NES games I played as a child that one always sticks with me both because of the weird game mechanics where you would jump into a frog and become the frog or whatever and also because me and my brothers memorized all the Game Genie codes for the game.

That Resetti tee is tempting.

Dead Space can get away with so nakedly copying it's influences because it does what it does so well (scare you silly that is). It's like a modern band that sounds exactly like the band they're influenced by but you don't really care because you really liked the band the they're influenced by and they're good.
