i wasn't going to do this joke because it feels far too obvious but the Hoothoot in the tree in the bottom left and Tangrowth drawing indeterminate shapes on the ground kind of sold it for me

Lowkey outing myself as a dirty cow. I do clean the house

Xbox sounded like a jet, so I’ve ripped it open and pulled out enough dust to make a kid’s duvet. Warranty is voided, but at least I can hear the fucking game now. Anyway, the Resident Evil 2 remake is good, you should play it

One of my favourite games on my favourite console. What a buy!

Well then. After 9 years my role of Editorial Director at Eurogamer/IGNE has been made redundant. If you’re reading this and feel I have a lot of valuable experience (I do), I’m keen to explore any opportunities (full time, consulting, other) in the games industry. I am great.

When my last publisher went bust I thought this book was destined to be out of print forever, but infinite thanks to the folks at Lost in Cult for bringing it back to life.

New chapters! New insights! New full colour illustrations! Lavish production values! Beautiful typesetting!

It was so shit what happened to you, but this version looks incredible! Can’t wait to read it

I’m pleased I saw your post about this because I’ve just finished watching it and it’s fantastic. I did the same, too, with rationing, but hit a double-bill for the last two episodes

Can’t wait for the day that I’m on my deathbed and my last thoughts are me being worried my Meta AI Zombie Avatar will start making jokes about cum to my nan.

A single cartoon turtle on a green background. It had a brown shell and four little green legs. It’s hella basic

A sprite sheet of turtle designs that never made it into the game. They’re all 2D and show the various frames of the walk animation

Still a run though! I’m worried about returning. Only ran a couple of times since December and currently bunged up *again*

I assumed as much but also wondered if it had another meaning

Told my kids that I thought there would be flying cars by now, and they laughed at me and called me stupid. Happy New Year!

I’ve been using an app called Picnic to sort out the photos on my phone (all 30,000 of them) and I had this exact same screenshot from last year. Nice to know I haven’t, and am not willing to, change

When you look back, it's crazy how advertising Klonoa by making it sound like a sexually-transmitted infection didn't result in it being a huge success.
