I Love Low-Effort Tomodachi Life Creations, Like A Single Pea On A Plate You can phone it in all day long

If you're overwhelmed seeing all the elaborate creations folks are making for Tomodachi Life, take our advice: to heck with it. Make some bad, low-effort art. kotaku.com/low-effort-tomodachi-lif...

Me normally: one very frustrating thing about being on the left is that a huge chunk of the movement is obsessed with defending the abusive, repressive monster that was the Soviet Union

In particular we'd love to see more mentors from:
Art (any type)
Narrative/Writing
Voice Acting
Journalism

Lads I got home from the pub to find no new SNL UK.

Gutted.

Realizing "person who only watches the UK version of SNL" is a brand new type of guy. Don't always get a lot of new guys these days. We gotta celebrate them when we can

despite coming out more than a decade later, Pragmata to me is slotting in as a third entry in the Vanquish/Binary Domain lineage

There is only one person who can get BlueSky working again

I had the opportunity to speak to Alyx about this project last year, so it really breaks my heart knowing how much love and pain has gone into this just for BAFTA to pull it like this.

Absolutely ridiculous decision and as Lex says, a terrible look.

Turns out I forgot to pre-order Pragmata which means I have to leave the house to get a physical copy of if I want it today

I am a silly

That Street Fighter trailer is excellent, absolute bait-and-switch a minute in to reveal a film that looks silly as hell. I can't wait.

Probably not, and with The Last Guardian you can point to budget.

I fear we wouldn’t get Journey today. We’ve slid the funding scales to the extremes.

This weeks Invincible was good, great even, but man… the score… John Paesano popped the fuck off with the score.

That’s not even going into the other side of it, a suffering press leading to a worse industry… I feel like the ball was dropped somewhat over the last 10 years on a more holistic level.

For all that’s been said about Spencer, I wonder if something like South of Midnight or Kiln gets greenlit by Asha Sharma’s Xbox? And while console wars were no doubt toxic, I wonder how that lack of brand loyalty (as a result of less public execs) affects smaller games from those publishers.

I should add or clarify on PBP.

I *struggle* to trust. I know PBP councillors who have every ounce of sense. The party, and Paul Murphy, made a mistake here.

And to be very clear on my personal politics. I believe in protest. Protest is good and necessary in a thriving democracy.

There’s a lot to protest about.

But not like this.

This is an excellent analysis of the entire shitshow this week.

The Far-Right have successfully showcased that they can trick the Irish down a path we shouldn’t walk.

Not only that, it’s fractured the left. I don’t trust Paul Murphy or PBP after this, the less said about Sinn Féin, the better.

Video games can be:

Fun
A distraction
Interesting
Uplifting
Deep
Educational
A medium for stories
Emotional
Distracting
A place to experience
A place for friends

Video games are art for the people who know.

SNL UK is worth watching just for Weekend Update alone. Paddy Young and Ania Magliano are genuinely brilliant.

How Ireland's far-right movement got involved in the fuel protests and tried to hijack them While many are protesting fuel costs, far-right actors and international figures are using the movement to push anti-immigrant narratives.

What a well written article that details the far-right element of the fuel protests. Well worth a read.

Here are some publicly available posts from one of the key organisers, James Geoghegan.

@paulmurphy.pbp.ie wanted to join fuel protests, but then it descended into the usual far right talking points, showing that like immigrant protests of recent years it wasn’t about fuel or people’s livelihoods - it’s the same ol’ racist crew hopping on a bandwagon. #spiergorm
