I can give a confident endorsement that the team at the CMPO are amazing to work with and that you won’t regret it. Sad to be leaving you all but excited to share about the new position soon! Going to make the most of the remaining weeks while we can and looking forward to seeing the team grow!
Funniest one I saw paused the Mario Kart World theme not even a second in.

Split maybe the only game that has been installed on every iPhone I have owned
Proper Nouns in these games are like those name registries that prevent there from being too many of one in circulation. Give it a decade and Guardian will be up for grabs again
It’s even crazier than that! The twist of the game is you were a Russian agent who got their entire personality replaced by MK Ultra. Which means if you chose the non-binary option they either erased everything about you except your pronouns or turned you NB in the process! I think about this daily
OK so it’s not just me then lol. Good to know
Darkseid textures mapped onto the ITSV Kingpin body… it’s perfect
I think the fact that they never publicly commented on it helped remove it from memory in contrast to something like The Alters
Any updates on whether Mina will make it out the door this year? It is the one thing preventing a winner being crowned in our Fantasy Critic league 😭
(Jokes aside, take all the time you need, looking forward to playing the game when it’s ready - this year or next)
Or, as the form puts it, an Australian “video game” website 😅
Craziest part is apparently he’s actually made it in collaboration with legitimately smaller devs - all of whom were not mentioned in the moment at all
Haha, that fuckin’ blows
What’s the bet he paid for one of the public tickets and is intentionally avoiding saying it to make him seem more connected? 95%? 99%?
Ah true! The jumping between things can be less than ideal.
There’s a paperback with his whole Eternals Run! And then Judgement day has all his stuff in both the main paperback and the companion one
I missed it because there wasn’t an ActiBlizz controversy they were trying to bury with it like 75% of OW news
I suspect that it’s because they are devoid of any real characters because the goal is to make you and your friend group the characters. And when all the plot/story/anything is coming from that emergent gameplay there’s not many signifiers they can project the culture war onto. No big boob REPO guy
We await with bated breath (though not too bated if it’s three years away)
I may be the sole person that would play that campaign out of morbid fascination to find out what rancid new political take they have if the boycott weren’t going. But it’s not like I’m losing any sleep over it.
The shifting of goalposts here to imply that they were only talking about a “flood of crime” and not implying an entire group of people were equivalent to The Flood is really something else
Man has the written equivalent of a tech keynote every year updating on what he’s doing. Truly on a different level in this regard
Absolutely great stuff. Games crit needs more like this
Yeah this is exactly my thoughts and the conversations I have with my friends who code.
Three of my favourite people in da biz! Big SXSW FOMO on this one
It is! Different focus to 4 with less set pieces but there’s a case to be made it’s the best
