Good morning fellow gamers. Saw this on reddit but apparently it's the first mention of Kingdom Hearts to the public. Pretty cool.

I'm having a lot of fun playing arc raiders. Anyone else just happy that the developers made a fun sandbox and let players just play. #gaming

The hype around the GameCube was unreal. I still remember being shocked that we didn’t get a Mario launch title. The GameCube launched on November 18th, 2001; happy 24th birthday, little cube.

Music in games is more than background noise; it’s the heartbeat of the experience. It shapes emotion, memory, and immersion. Hearing a melody can take you right back to a level you haven’t played in years. So yeah… Claire Obscur missing a Grammy nod feels wrong. #gaming #music #grammys

On this day 14 years ago, Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim was released. 11/11/11.
Some art from the Feb 2011 issue of gameinormer.
Can't believe we've had/have to wait 15 years for the next Elder Scrolls.

The next Halo MP needs everything at launch—Forge, BTB, Slayer, Arenas—plus every weapon, vehicle, and map from past Halos rebuilt in Unreal 5. Then add new maps and weapons. Forget perfect balance, give us the TOYS and let player feedback shape the fun and competition. #halo #gaming #xbox @halo.gg

Fantastic read, quick resume and gamepass truly were big wins for Xbox. I just wish development cycles weren't so long for the game library the series x could have had. Imagine a new halo, gears, forza, Fable, Elder Scrolls hitting Xbox. #gaming #xbox

The Xbox Series was the best Xbox yet. Then Microsoft lost all interest in it
Strategic confusion sunk hardware that deserved better

Halo 2: 21 years ago. I was 4th in line at our local gamestop, Midnight. My friends and I would grab our copy and rush home to play on the OG Xbox. Trying to complete the campaign before hitting up one of the greatest multi-player experiences of our lifetime.
