Bowser's Fury isn't exactly the strongest 3D Mario game, but it brings so many great ideas to the table that excite me for the future of the franchise. Let's talk about it.

My front runner for performance of the year pick now goes to @erikaishii.bsky.social after Ghost of Yotei. It’s nice that the Expedition 33 talent have some direct competition. It’s one of my favorite performances ever in a Sony game for sure.

Review | ‘Ghost of Yotei’ sharpens the samurai revenge formula with raw feeling
The open-world PlayStation epic excels thanks to a revenge story written with precision and heart, backed by a compelling lead performance.

The first time I played Hollow Knight, I found it frustrating, tedious, and at times, even dull. But over the years, I’ve come around on it, and now regard it as a masterpiece. This is the story of how that came to be.

BREAKING: Silksong will be out on September 4. Two weeks from today. Really.
Often, games that take 7+ years to make are plagued by mismanagement and painful burnout. But for Silksong? Team Cherry was having a blast. They still are.
