If Sinners came out in the 90s there would be an SNES and Genesis game that would be made by totally different developers. The Genesis version youd play as Smoke and you’d have a gun and in the SNES version you play as Preacherboy and you fight vampires with your guitar
A post by c.a.t.y.a.y that reads, "I wonder what my art could've been if I didn't quit". Iggy responds, "I wonder what it will be if you start again"
Going into 2026, a reminder for everyone who's fallen off the creative wagon, game dev, writing, art, music, whatever, no matter how long:
The thing that's never sat with me re:criticism about Expedition 33 being "baby's first JRPG" is that the people who actually made the game couldn't be more consistently reverent about their influences.

Really cool that the Supergirl trailer on YouTube ends with this card. I really appreciate how the Gunn era of DC movies has been trying to emphasize the comics it’s taking inspiration from and putting effort to let people know where they can read them.
Might have had one of the best nights of my life yesterday? Endless love going out to the family, friends, cast, crew and creative team that have been beyond supportive as I found the strength to return to live theatre after far too long away; I owe you all so much ❤️💚
We opened Elf: The Musical last night, and oh my godddddd I missed doing live theatre so much.
You’re excited about a 60 minute Direct because you think that means Sakurai’s going to reveal an ambitious story mode.
I’m excited for a 60 minute Direct because that means Sakurai is gonna spend 5 minutes explaining how much he loves his wife’s UI design for the Options menu.
I love talking about movies but its always a secondary activity to Watching and Experiencing them. The good and the bad.
I worry social media had reversed that, where being a part of Movie Discourse (and worse contrarians within it!) has become the Priority and Experiencing them, secondary.
I’m more positive on some of the non-art uses for AI than a lot of my peers, but forcing LLM’s into every website and search engine has already been beyond obnoxious, and now they’re adding it to the program whose sole purpose is being as simple and low-tech as possible 🙃
Every time I watch HxH I think of this tweet
Actual footage of me adding Moorwing to my “Souls boss beaten before the nerf” collection:
You know a Metroidvania is good when you start cackling maniacally within 5 seconds of getting a new movement upgrade. #Silksong
Can't imagine the weird combo of stress and freedom Team Cherry must be feeling as their singleplayer indie game is somehow pulling a full-on Diablo 3 launch, but only because the mega-corporations running all the storefronts can't handle the amount of traffic Silksong is bringing in.
I missed Sakurai's style of Nintendo Direct 😭
Thinking about introducing a long-winded overarching narrative to my retro video game reviews that concludes in a fight against an evil clone of myself
Rolled credits on Donkey Kong Bananza, definitely gonna be singing its praises for a long time.
(Also shoutout to Backloggd for somehow managing to make a gamer Letterboxd that's less toxic than Letterboxd.)
This is the best 3D platformer featuring a blue rolling mammal I’ve ever played. #DonkeyKongBananza
oh wow did the Nintendo guys who have been banging out an excellent game every three and a half years for all of recorded human history do it again
The combo of the news + announcing it this way is an unstoppably big W. Congrats dude!
The entire existence of The Game Awards has all been leading up to the moment the live band gets to drop Expedition 33’s final boss theme during their annual medley.
I seem to have a habit of only getting around to playing certain big games just before their sequel comes out, and I always feel a little guilty when I wind up loving it and then don’t have to wait at all to see what took the devs 5+ years to cook.
Anyways, Death Stranding kicks ass.
Zoomers gonna start treating their 2024 voting record like Season 4 got treated on Community:
My super hot take is that I’m much more interested in seeing Greta Gerwig going full tilt “God is a woman” for her feminist Narnia movie instead of a safe blockbuster version that’s slightly nicer to Susan.
Gotta love election season.
Man, I could totally see there being some unannounced caveat that makes this annoying, but this seems based as hell? All of my Switch games are digital, so I love the idea of being able to let my family and friends borrow from my collection.
ME: Nice base building mechanic, but I'd rather go be a ninja.
ASSASSIN'S CREED: That's okay, you don't even need to build past the tutorial, you could honestly just make every tile spawn cats if you-
ME: Say that again, Mr. GOTY?
Right wing grifters love to complain that the speedrunning scene is too gay these days, but then will blast through a 100+ hour RPG as fast as humanly possible to find out exactly how many genders you can have sex with.
