We Need MORE GAMES like MOUSE: P.I. for Hire YouTube video by JampackSam

I want more games like MOUSE: P.I. for Hire.

I rolled credits over the weekend and it's a great example of a game that knows exactly what it wants to be. It's not perfect, but it's everything I was hoping it would be, too.

The Nintendo Switch Game Cartridge Taste Tester fucked up and now this current batch isn't rancid.

sure are lots of good video games all of a sudden

The chart asks "what type of gamer are you"? New school : Highguard Old school: Concord Retro: LawBreakers Ancient: Evolve Pre Historic: Battleborn

Marathon is so damn good!!!

Bungie’s shooting and weapon design are unmatched.

It feels like I’m playing the best of Halo and Destiny with a class system of Apex.

I’m having an absolute blast.

Marathon has the sauce.

I get why Steam CCUs are combed through and talked about so extensively. The data is available. Which, for this industry, is miraculous.

But CCUs only tell one part of the story, and the way people extrapolate and make wild conclusions based only on CCUs is unfortunate.

I get it. But meh.

Every now and then I get a comment that is absolute gold.

Today, that honor goes to borangeporridge. 🫡
