I got a chance to review Layers of Fear: The Final Masterpiece Edition for Nintendo Switch 2 over on my YouTube channel! Big thanks to Zebra Partners for the opportunity. Check it out, share, subscribe, and if you want me to review your game, please reach out. I’m looking to do a lot more!
There aren’t a lot of truly great opportunities to cough “go fuck yourself” in public, but when you get them, you really gotta deliver. Fanone nails it so well. This is artistry.
Wow -- Fanone coughs "go fuck yourself" to Trey Nehls as Nehls blames Capitol Police leadership for January 6

Very strange to see all these Game Freak alums referencing their work on Pokemon while talking about a game that's being published by Xbox and not coming out for Nintendo systems. Looks good, though!

The Super Mario Bros. Wonder Switch 2 expansion looks pretty good. My big concern since it was announced is that it would exclusively focus on multiplayer, with little in the way of new single-player content. The trailer today made me feel a little better, especially with the Koopaling stuff.

Man, this was better than anything that actually made it in this week’s episode!
While it made it as far as dress rehearsal, Tommy Brennan's Weekend Update desk bit on Trump's ICE deployments in his home state of Minnesota did not make it to SNL broadcast.
But they've made it available anyway. And you should watch it.

This is going to sound harsh, but Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time was always a really stupid project for a massive, AAA remake. It’s a niche series, but a beloved game. Ubisoft should have done a cheap remaster instead of spending years and millions of dollars trying to get it off the ground.

Ubisoft also announced it was delaying seven other games, to “ensure enhanced quality benchmarks are fully met”

rich guy in charge boldly stepping up thinking “I’m gonna fix this right NOW” and immediately making it worse is the calling card of present-day America
Bills owner Terry Pegula on Keon Coleman: "The coaching staff pushed to pick Keon." Said Coleman wasn't at the top of Beane's list and that he was being a team player with the pick.
Pegula interrupted a Beane answer to make that known.

You have one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL and you don’t consult him before firing the coach?!? Do you realize how *ridiculously* stupid that is?!?
Terry Pegula says Josh Allen did not have any input on the decision to fire Sean McDermott and that Pegula did not talk to Allen before the firing. He talked to Allen after

Yes, it’s very weird to add new content to a one year old port of a 15 year old game. But you know what? It doesn’t matter, because the very best Kong has finally arrived.

I think there should be a law requiring him and only him to change his last name to reflect whichever company he's working with and right now, for the sake of journalistic integrity, I believe we and the press should all be referring to him by his upcoming name, "Doug Megatron."

It’s wild how good he is at this. No mealy mouthed bull crap. No spin. Just straight up “yeah, abolish ICE. Look at what they’re doing.”
Mamdani: "I am in support of abolishing ICE. What we see is an entity that has no interest in fulfilling its stated reason to exist. We're seeing a government agency that is supposed to be enforcing some kind of immigration law, but instead what it's doing is terrorizing people."

I like the CrossWorld idea in Sonic Racing CrossWorlds, but it’s super annoying when one of the tracks from the Grand Prix you’re in shows up. I played the Pumpkin Grand Prix and saw Pumpkin Mansion come up once as a CrossWorld, then as the track itself, and then in the finale. That’s way too much.

People romanticize old Twitter like Cartman in that old episode of South Park where he convinces the other 8-year-olds that third grade was some magical place and fourth grade sucks. By the end of the episode though, they remember that actually it was always bad.
If Bluesky is to grow and become a viable alternative for the "Global Townsquare," which was the point, it needs to compete on engagement and virality is a part of that.
It isn't competing. Engagement here has been falling for a year. That's a problem if you, like me, want it to survive and thrive.
