One of my wifes goldfish ‘kissed’ her hand while she was sorting plants in her new pond and it delighted her more than the last time I kissed her.

The crazy part of my brain is telling me to kill the fish.

Both the Prototype games were so fucking good. I adored the hell out of them. Forever heartbroken we never got the third game I assume was on the cards.

I didn’t believe this was a real thing until I saw it.

I'd argue that the opening to Time And Punishment with Homer's hand getting jammed in the toaster may be one of the most perfectly timed jokes on The Simpsons ever. The first time I saw it, I laughed until I cried.

A reminder, since rando bros are dropping in to announce their boycott, thinking we’re pro-AI like one of our producers.

There’s an interview going around about AI, so before there are any questions, let me state unequivocally that BLACK PHONE 2 is 100% organic. AI was not used at any stage of the filmmaking from idea generation, research, look books, writing, onscreen images - anything. We’re old school and love it.

The soundtrack was good I’ll concede that much but no more.

When you ruminated about second person camera my first thought was the Fallout 3 and 4 VATS mode camera.
