Got my copy and immediately started text-screaming at Chris 😂 What he and the team have achieved with this book is truly next-level - it's a love letter to not just IMMORTALITY and the process of making a videogame, but to the medium of print. Beautiful work!

The Sunday Papers The Sunday Papers is our weekly roundup of great writing about (mostly) videogames from across the web.

Here’s to @grahamsmith.bsky.social, signing off from RPS after 20 years in game journalism with the wisest thoughts about games media you’ll read www.rockpapershotgun.com/the-sunday-p...

it's time to COMPLAIN about the delisting of NSFW games on steam and itch! tell these payment processors that they need to STOP listening to these boring anti-porn thought-policing friendless tossers and START LISTENING to us instead. there is no art without queers, sluts, perverts and weirdoes 💦

One of the sweetest moments of the march: a bunch of shop floor staff at a fancy boutique suddenly having a flash of inspiration and rushing to grab plain shirts to make a trans flag at the window.

Probably an unpopular opinion, but I think people should just say the sappy shit more often.

the internet isn't cool any more. my next video game will be released as a mail order cd rom advertised in the back of Total Amiga magazine

DK Bananza is the most wonderfully depressing game. It’s clearly the work of lifelong game developers mentoring novices and it’s the kind of game we’d have a lot more of if game publishers actually let game development be a stable, life-long career for people.

Delighted to be doing a monthly column for this. Ralph's a thoroughly good egg, the site's great, and the idea of a video guy pivoting to text is just proper world-gone-mad stuff, love it. Have a look!

RPS is one of the few sites where I still actually navigate to the homepage to start reading, no doubt thanks in part to your excellent leadership. Best of luck with the next thing!

going to big Tesco, anyone need anything?

I love this thread. Ever since I heard about Silvio I wanna make my own recurring character too! Such a good idea!

Listening to @itsjensim.bsky.social on this week's @backpagepod.bsky.social reminded me of an old RPS supporter article I wrote once about how I thought creating the same character again and again made me really *boring* and unimaginative, but maybe not!

Happy your birthday.

What a great piece of writing! It continues to surprise me that there’s such a dearth of narrative-focused dressup games when it can be such an important part of building our idea of who we are!

really enjoyed @itsjensim.bsky.social on @backpagepod.bsky.social talking about dress up games and character customisation, sun a fun conversation! It reminded me of a piece I wrote a few years ago on dressing gay in video games
