They have a new award category for games - entries close SOON April 27

Did you or your team do sick costume, world building/set design, etc? Enter!
I usually don't do this. But if any site needs someone to help them with any 40k game coming out this year, please let me know. I would love to help out if possible!
We need to stop accepting views expressed on Twitter as real opinions. The sooner everyone assumes that the median post on that website is done in bad faith and principally designed to chase clout, the sooner we stop letting these fake controversies take up all the oxygen in the room.
I'm also a lifelong James Bond tragic, FYI. 🙏🥺
Gonna start yelling at GOG & Nightdive to bring back the V.I.P. games.
I actually bought most issues of Incite when they came out.
It was 2000. I was 12.
Never has there been a video game magazine more of its time.
I have that issue of Incite. It was 1000% a magazine of its time. Would've been 2000 I think? It tried real hard to be a weird hybrid of EGM, FHM, & Rolling Stone. I think it only lasted about 6 months.
Wrestlemania is over, so it's time to submit a new Botchamania ending @maffewgregg.bsky.social
I am looking for environmental artists, particularly people with a strong background in concept work for interior locations
Atmospheric/ Liminal vibes appreciated
You can apply by dropping your art in the replies, or send your portfolio to:

Humans only. no ai.
Yep! I was also shocked to learn last week that the PC version of Pillars II doesn't support controllers at all either.
Both games launched with console versions!! It's ridiculous.
I agree! It is The Best Dragon Age.
I'm still waiting for them to patch-in controller support for the PC version though.
Haha I just wishlisted it on Steam but phone/tablet is probably better. Thanks!
One of those iconic games that I have somehow never played
Oh apparently it's a known issue with some Proton branches. Weird.
Bizarre bug I've had three times now with Yakuza 5 Remastered on Steam Deck where the audio for a completely different cinematic plays over the one I'm actually watching. 🤷♀️
I need a monitor & a chair in New York. Somebody commission me to review some, please. 😅🤞
Cool people in media and content creation cite original sources and link back to those sources
Whomst out there in games media is taking pitches right now? 👋💜

I still chuckle when I think about how IGN got John Carpenter to try to play the Halloween theme on the Labo piano & he quits after one attempt & just says 'this piano is the biggest piece of shit in the world'
Oooh shit. I'd be getting a ticket for tomorrow if I weren't sick as Hell with a cold. Goddammit.
Shuhei Yoshida, former head of Sony Worldwide Studios, has remarked that he was "fired" by then-CEO Jim Ryan "because I didn’t listen to him."
Yoshida suggested Ryan "asked to do some ridiculous things, and I said 'No,'" before saying he highly enjoyed his subsequent PlayStation Indies role.
They drop new ones at such a ridiculous rate though that I'm trying to catch up a bit! 😅
Pretty good, but uneven. Finale was a slog but they always are. I'm gonna start Yakuza 5 tomorrow.
So ready to "unlock" my "gaming potential" with this thing
I gave it a 7/10 & sometimes think back & wish I went a little lower for the exact inverse of that reasoning. The whole game felt overwhelmingly to me like a capitulation to the tired trappings of open-world game design. I kind of hate it.
FWIW I went twice in recent years & had the exact same experience. It's so strange.
