"Think not of the games you've bought as a 'to be played' pile. Instead, think of your backlog as a wine cellar. You collect games to be played at the right time, the right place, and the right mood."

This is oddly specific.

Games industry spends decades combating piracy and then immediately pivots into stealing creative works as soon as it’s available to them.

I had to snub Half-Life 1, FF7, and Super Mario RPG because they all were released before 2000 originally, otherwise they would've made my 🔝🔟 list.

Major bag alert...after four hours in line #nintendoswitch2

This dude fell asleep in line at this midnight launch. #yousnoozeyoulose

Someone would make a killing selling water and snacks until 3 or 4 AM here. This Seattle Best Buy and the Bellevue one have to be the two most popular in WA state.

I'm in line for Nintendo Switch 2 launch purgatory in Seattle Best Buy. 2 hours waiting so far, but Best Buy staff says they have plenty of stock to sell to those of us without preorders. Currently standing next to this urine-scented sign in the meantime 🫠

I sat in the Walmart's Switch 2 app queue for 90 minutes and almost fell for a third party seller scalp scam for $800 when it finally refreshed:

Lol I'm in this photo in that line. Struggle is real

Think I'm in the same line as you...Northgate Seattle Best Buy? The lady in the Cappy hat?

Hey now

Giant Bomb is dead, long live Giant Bomb! 💣💥

this is what it has felt like watching fandom management's handling of giant bomb

"The quickest way to kill your passion for any industry is to become a part of it personally." I think it's a sad but unfortunately honest truth about working in video games media. 🫠

polygon and giant bomb dead in the same week is just unfathomable

The Giant Bomb crew didn't deserve this kind of disrespect and mistreatment. Unfortunately, this amazingly talented staff couldn't fight corporate selloffs forever. Fuck Fandom for ruining one of the best gaming media outlets ever. The brand is dead. #RIPGiantBomb

STILL A THREAT
