Remember when I tried Balatro and didn't like it? Who even was that guy?

I can't explain why I love this game, but I also love games made by people who clearly love this game, so I guess it's not just me.

I should just stop playing, but I got this streak going.

The best parts of this game are the photo mode and car customisation. The worst part is American cars. I wonder why American manufacturers don't connect the steering wheel to the front wheels. I know they have long straight roads there but there are some corners.

I loved the first two OliOlli games. Played hours and hours of them on Vita and then again on Switch. They're the perfect auto-runner and, in many ways, share a lot of commonality with the decent Sonic games.

We launched two sites recently, pretty much on the same day, for two very different companies.

I right-place-right-timed my way to a PS5 this week. It's the first time in ages that I haven't picked up a console I wanted on launch day.
I wasn't rushing to get one because there wasn't a launch title that I was drawn to, but that turned out to be wrong.

Damn it, Animal Crossing, with your cute pumpkins and halloween decorations! Fine I'll play some more.
I love GIFs. I use them all the time. On my laptop, I have a LaunchBar custom bookmarks index that lists them all so that they're searchable and I can access them easily, but that's more difficult in iOS. I decided to see if I could use iOS' Shortcuts app to give me some sort of search UI for them, and it turns out I can!

When this game came out, I think it was super close to Breath of the Wild (I could look it up but why would I), so I was completely distracted. I'd been meaning to play it. It looked great, but Zelda just got in the way.

Me: If I can get an RX-7 in this game I'm going to leave it completely stock.
Also me:

When you pay off your home loan, as in life, you get the chance to enjoy a new pace of living, but the lack of structure can be demotivating.

Sometimes a studio or publisher will luck into a game so perfect that they have to systematically destroy it in order to prove just how brilliant it is.

I don't really get how any of this works. So far I've just been doing things and they've been working OK most of the time

What's up MTV? Welcome to my crib.

Animal Crossing has a feature called the Stalk Market. You buy turnips once a week then hedge your bets on making a return.

I'm really fortunate to be part of a group of people who are pretty much all playing Animal Crossing right now

Animal Crossing: New Horizons is finally here

I seriously can't believe how charming this game is
