ALAN's made a sales blunder again!

Really he promote this during the summer when the temperature is high, not in the winter when the temperature is cold.

But his loss is your gain, as you can get one of the nicest and bestest games ever well-cheap.
It snowed today in London... You know what that means for A Good Snowman is Hard To Build ☃️
Pay what the weather is!

Fights in Tight Spaces started out as an Only Fools and Horses game
Heaven's Vault started out as a Doctor Who game
jokes aside as popeye enters public domain a reminder we got mario and donkey kong because nintendo couldn't use popeye and bluto, like star wars happened because lucas was denied making a flash gordon movie

let corpos denying you recycling their stuff drive you to do better new stuff that's yours

I'd have put Crank 2 in instead of The Mechanic, but horses for courses.
Pope Leo has shared his four favorite movies of all time, as the Vatican prepares to host dozens of actors and directors in a “World of Cinema” gathering on Saturday at his official residence. See which films made the pope's list. nyti.ms/4p3exK9

I'm getting adverts for a very specific bus route in Bristol (the number 36). Which is both too targeted, and also absolutely no use to me as I don't live on the 36 bus route.

I hope this is something I can blame on AI.

Earlier on at Monument a man darted out between traffic and was inches away from being splattered by a double decker bus. The dozens of people at the pedestrian crossing - to a person - said "fuckin' hell" and I haven't felt that level of national pride since 2012.

I keep seeing this thumbnail and thinking it's a video where Edgar Wright says something like, "Michael Wood Services after a big hotel breakfast and a long drive, the relief was immense"

When he's wearing his sunglasses, Mike McDaniel looks like someone who would piss of John Wick without fully acknowledging the ramifications

Weird thing to say in a Hyrule Warrior review...
ign.com IGN @ign.com · 20d
Rockstar Games co-founder and former lead writer Dan Houser has said he’d feel more sad to learn Red Dead Redemption 3 was in development without him than he feels about GTA 6, but admits the game "will probably happen." https://bit.ly/4nLRy5t

You spend years trying to establish your reputation as "the jock" of the UK games industry and it's all ruined in a single afternoon of wholesome biscuit decorating!

@jonbois.bsky.social I have an NFL question: Scott Hanson always refers to the "BLUE Medical Tent" implying the existence of other medical tents of different colours for other purposes. Is there - for example - an orange medical tent players go to when their feelings are hurt?

Okay you can mock. But when has a human creator ever given you the ability to Lergevtiepsappe an air conditioning unit in a game before? Never. That's when.

In response to all the people who said "I really like Fights in Tight Spaces, but can we have a version set in a haunted house where you can kick a Mummy in the nuts?" we have some new spooky DLC coming next week.
Our store page is finally live?! 🥹 Along with our release date??
