Very tempted to play this

It’s especially aggravating when people pull Steam numbers for game that are multi platform. Like Assassin’s Creed Shadows - which was absolutely always going to do more on console, by far

Going to Costco on Sunday to eat a lunch of free samples

I’m obviously not as much of a multiplayer shooter person as I used to be - but nothing about extraction shooters really grabs me (maybe because I don’t usually have a squad). I just don’t like the loop. I much prefer the lore straight competitive style or hero shooter approach

Played a bit of Marathon today, and proved again that, yep, I don’t like extraction shooters. It’s doing some cool stuff visually and thematically, but gameplay-wise just isn’t doing it for me

Bought a puzzle

I absolutely love musicals. Can’t believe it took me this long to watch it

Finally got around to watching Hazbin Hotel. And I dig it.

The amount of mileage Capcom had gotten out of the RE Engine is astounding. Maybe one of the smartest moves a studio has made in the modern era

Drowning my anger today in pancakes

things every single republican president of your lifetime has done

- started a war in the middle east
- completely destroyed the economy

I still don’t understand why they’re getting away with branding their product as akin to analytics when it’s just Wikileaks for insider trading on world events. Discord drops for bulk buying toilet paper and iodine tablets.

85 schoolgirls. just one is a world, a future of infinite possibilities, a universe. that america has done this atrocity to 85 of them, that it will continue to do even worse... i don't even know what to say. i condemn this with every fiber of my being, but that doesn't feel like enough.

Absolutely fuck any government official that supports this shit. They should never hold public office another day, another minute, in their entire lives

A strike killed 63 children at a school. Really getting those missiles, huh?

Love to go to bed with the assumption we’ll probably be at war with Iran when I wake up.

Then the dude steals his girlfriend’s gun and runs out of the shop you’re protecting. Bro sucks.

I completely forgot when you run into survivors in Leon’s campaign there’s some dude who’s just like “Yeah just leave my girlfriend behind, she can die.”

New translation!

This week I’ve translated the short documentary Ise-Shima, the 1949 directorial debut from the man behind Godzilla, Ishiro Honda!

Enjoy the start of one of the most famous names in movies, the first instance of underwater filming in Japan, and lots of post-war anxieties!

Yeah I’m playing RE6 again, and I’m about to make it everyone’s problem

Booted up that hot new Leon Kennedy game

When the Uber drops you off 5 miles away from the convention

The best part of a new Pokemon gen reveal is always the memes and fan art.

When I meet up with friends I love telling them about all the content I’ve consumed recently

Undoubtedly yes

That’s what I’m expecting too, unless there’s something they’ve been holding to announce

I almost bought this, and then decided to love myself more

I'm getting a few emails and invites, so probably good to say I won't be attending GDC this year. I originally was going to be going for Inverse (which is why I'm probably on a few lists), but things didn't pan out. I will, most likely, be attending SGF, however.

I'm setting up a few very cool and exciting meetings at GDC and would love to get more journalists involved! If you're attending GDC and looking to fill up your schedule hit me up at jordan(at)fortyseven(dot)com !!!
