microsoft branding a studio as "AAAA" only to have it spend 7 years building a game that doesn't ship before it cans the whole staff seems like the perfect microcosm for the video game industry in 2025

also yet another reminder that Final Fantasy 13 came out at the wrong time, since that one also had 20 hours of plot wheel-spinning and aggressively linear "world" design. but it didn't bring it all home the way this one does (and its dopamine hits weren't as fine-tuned)

was pretty set on a 4 or 5/10 here but that third act really is pretty bold. turned the whole thing around for me

i moved from boston to new york about a decade ago, and the only persistent belief i've held about this city over that time is that knicks fans deserve every ounce of torment that ever befalls them

i'm liking CLAIR OBSCUR: EXPEDITION 33, but the "we have Moogles at home" and "we have 'Aerith dies' at home" energy is undeniable

Backbone Pro hands-on: A pricey controller for more than just your phone The Backbone One is one of the more popular smartphone gamepads on the market, but its follow-up wants to meet gamers across devices.

here's my write-up of the new Backbone Pro controller. i like it! a clear upgrade over the original. it'll be a great gift. but $170 for a mobile gamepad is always gonna be a tough sell, especially now: www.engadget.com/gaming/backb...

Reflections on the Nintendo Switch, the hybrid console that changed gaming Before the Nintendo Switch 2 arrives next month, we took some time to reflect on the many ways the original Switch has stood out to us.

herded up a little (early) group retrospective on the Nintendo Switch ahead of the Switch 2's release (mainly so i could have a new excuse to blab about Gunpei Yokoi on the site) www.engadget.com/gaming/ninte...

Polygon Sold To Valnet And Hit With Mass Layoffs One of the biggest gaming sites around was just blown up

games media has been in a slow-motion extinction event for years but it's no less terrible when the wrecking ball hits. best wishes to everyone affected, shocking amount of talent to just discard. always have a soft spot for polygon, helped me start out back in 2012 kotaku.com/polygon-sold...

walmart charged and cancelled on me four times, leading my bank to lock my debit card. best buy kicked me out of eight 90-min queues without giving me a chance to order. then, at 1:40am, i (tentatively) got the new nintendo thing. i'm 34 and having a kid in two months. what am i doing with my life

The Nintendo Switch 2 promises major storage upgrades, but it'll cost you The Nintendo Switch 2 is one of the first mainstream devices to embrace super-fast microSD Express cards, but the move might bring some growing pains to start.

put together an explainer on the Switch 2 + microSD Express situation. i've tested the one (1!) card that was available to purchase prior to Wednesday, and it is indeed a major leap forward. but be ready to pay for it, at least to start. file sizes will be key: www.engadget.com/gaming/ninte...

iPad (2025) with A16 review: No Apple Intelligence, no problem Apple’s latest entry-level tablet isn't very exciting, but it still meets most iPad users where they live.

here's my review of the new iPad, in which (1) "no Apple Intelligence" is both a pro and a con, (2) i spend a paragraph talking about Infinity Nikki, (3) i continue my crusade against non-laminated displays and (4) there's a photo of a very good dog: www.engadget.com/mobile/table...

i don't pretend that these "deserve" attention or anything, there's still a commerce element to them of course, but i think it's still possible to do them in a way that isn't reductive or shitty or involves making referral links for potato chips. so i try to follow that. i don't know! going away now
