Battlefield 6 is out tomorrow, and it's one of EA’s most important launches in years. I broke down why: www.theverge.com/games/795232...

Battlefield 6 is a pivotal moment for the series — and EA

The stakes are high for EA’s next big shooter.

the narrative arc of this headline is inspiring

a newspaper headline that reads: "Opinion | On the street, a child broke the head off a flower. Their mother said nothing! Appalled, I stepped in. Then she threw her coffee in my face... Ask Lisi"

this is still relevant www.theverge.com/2024/10/22/2...

I’ve given up on trying to predict what Nintendo will do — especially when it comes to the Switch 2

The surprise is part of the fun.

used the re-release of super mario galaxy as an excuse to write about how nintendo treats its own history www.theverge.com/games/790186...

Super Mario Galaxy deserves more

Some extras would go a long way.

sometimes i find an older piece i dont remember writing and wonder why i was allowed to publish it www.theverge.com/24114957/sup...

Does Mario feel pain? It’s complicated

It’s also not the important question, according to Nintendo.
