I visited a video game archivist trying to preserve some of the world's most forgotten history against all odds, and sometimes even other gamers Interview | The Strong Museum is protecting what even some game companies won't keep

i invite you to pause todayโ€™s bad energy & black candles with the fact that preservationists like @borman.bsky.social at the strong museum are not deterred by the video games industryโ€™s present โ€” theyโ€™re letting love carry them through the next 100 years

These are the Game of the Year awards UFO 50's massive collection of roguelikes, Metroidvanias, and more missed out on by not actually being released in the '80s Year in Review | UFO 50 might just be one to play forever

given the ufo 50 news, here's a previous banger from @dkbailey64.bsky.social that remains as true now as it was when it published

We're excited and proud to announce that Digital Foundry is now fully independent, having parted ways amicably with IGN. In this DF Direct Special, we share our thoughts and aspirations for the future of the channel: youtu.be/tl7bIJ2yu4I

King of the Hill is committed to the idea that everything changes โ€“ that's why Iโ€™m convinced it's the perfect show to bring back OPINION | While most animated shows are stuck in time, King of the Hill has always kept up with the changing world around us, which makes it prime reboot material

I wrote about it before I saw the reboot, but I'm very glad that King of the Hill stuck to what has always been the series' greatest strength: Showing that we all have the capacity to change. www.gamesradar.com/entertainmen...

one of my firmly held anecdotal beliefs is that critics often score in the upper half of a given range (whole lotta 7 out of 10s in the world) in large part because most creations that would score worse are culled before ever releasing

you know that scene in spider-verse where the teacher catches miles out for intentionally scoring a 0, a wild statistical anomaly, which means he actually knew all of the answers

i genuinely believe you have to *try* to make a movie like this

That there's very little official KPop Demon Hunters merch is extremely funny considering the movie feels like it was made in a lab to go viral among certain groups of people

I subscribed to re:frame for writing about animation and art a minute ago. I like the line-up, it looks like it's gonna have some interesting writing. Love a neo-group blog feel.

Hello! You may have seen it, but I am one of the employees that have been impacted by layoffs at IGN.

It's been a great six years, but this now means I am looking to apply my talents to something new and exciting.
