I will, I will. But later. Once I am the Z-A Royale champion.

Picked squirtle since I’m desperately short on water types

It’s level five

YOU CAN’T JUST SPRING THIS ON ME, POKÉMON

I always assumed I’d be able to eat 100 nuggets nbd but then I saw them stacked on @janochoa.bsky.social’s lap during the Bomb-a-Thon and it legit altered my brain chemistry

Look, I’m just gonna say it, Blue Prince should still win Game of the Year.

Loved the Nintendo pop-up in London, spent way too much money, but floored that there wasn’t a single piece of Metroid merch.

Prime 4 is like a month away, could Samus not have had one little shelf?

Omg is Blue by Eiffel 65 a song about depression??

6yo seeing Nurse Joy for the first time in Pokémon Legends: Z-A: I like that lady’s hair, it’s very… bon appetit!

This is such a bummer. TheGamer basically let me write whatever jokes I wanted about whoever I wanted in the video game industry - to the point of getting legal threats. Few places give freelancers that much freedom. It’s sad to see so many good staff writers and editors let go.

Several of my colleagues were laid off today, and seeing the usual reaction from the usual people pushed me to write a blog post (how retro) about the sad state of online discourse: jackcrustycoleman.com/2025/10/22/l...

Unfortunately, my time as an Editor for TheGamer.com has come to an end.

I met some of the best coworkers I've ever had there, I learned and grew a lot.

If anyone is looking for a journo, especially for guides, reviews, VR, horror, and farming RPGs, I'd love to hear from you.

I got laid off from TheGamer today, along with the entire Features team (go give
@epicswitzer.bsky.social
and
@hallafyre.bsky.social
a follow!)

Needless to say, I'm now looking for work. I'm open to roles in:

-Journalism
-PR
-Copywriting
-Copy editing
-Games writing
-Scriptwriting

It’s a minor miracle there isn’t a Bunger on that screen

The second Kirby Air Riders Direct is this Thursday and will be roughly 60 minutes long

No, I’m not joking

Keeper feels like Tim Burton and Pixar made a game together

@grubb.wtf @tolkoto.com @danryckert.com forever a week behind on Giant Bomb stuff so sorry if you’re already into it, but I feel like this would very much be your kind of shit

There are 1,000 other things I should be playing right now but damn, Ball x Pit got that juice

Appreciate the lap 2 CrossWorlds gimmick in Sonic Racing more than ever now that the Minecraft track has been added and my son insists we pick it every single time

Oh the wifi is back, thank god!

*goes from watching old episodes of Superstore on my phone to watching old episodes of Superstore on the TV*

Think this might be a career first (unless there’s a quote of mine in a trailer out there somewhere that I’ve never seen)

Absolum Review - An Absolute Game-Changer For Beat ‘Em Ups Absolum isn’t for the weak-hearted, but its excellent beat 'em up mechanics and unique roguelite structure make it one of the genre’s best games.

I’ve not shut up about Absolum since I first saw it, and I’m happy to say it completely lived up to all my hopes - one of my favourite games this year for sure: www.thegamer.com/absolum-revi...

Minecraft And The Simpsons Already Have A Terrible Barbenheimer Name Ahead Of Their Shared Release Day If we're going to insist on this having a portmanteau, we need to do better.

There are people out there who genuinely believe The Simpsons sequel will be the one that dominates if it and the next Minecraft movie end up releasing on the same day.

Sneak peek at my Clair Obscur Halloween costume

Well yeah, hopefully

HEY FOLKS!

Now I am back from Japan I wanted to do a proper *I'M LOOKING FOR WORK* post.

Reviews, previews, features, podcasts, on-camera stuff, online, in print... I can do it all! And have been doing it all for like six years!

If you have a beat on any opportunities, please let me know.

I just finished Act 1 in Clair Obscur and I’m not okay

After melting down about what this might be with the rest of the internet, showed it to my 6yo when he got home from school and 30 seconds in he asks ‘is this a Pikmin thing?’

If Wario is going to be in the Mario Galaxy movie, he should be voiced by Danny Devito for a few seconds before clearing his throat and then it's just whoever's actually voicing him after that
