YouTube video by David Jaffe Alyssa Mercante: How Far Can You PUSH Game Publishers?!?

A few weeks back @alyssamerc.bsky.social and I talked about the balance game journalists must walk if they want to maintain access to game publishers. And as audiences sophistication grow, does that access have the same value that it used to?

That's this:

Oh shit, I didn't know they were doing their show again!

Anytime if they want me. And to talk about my love for Geforce Now?!? Yes please! :)

Lonely Mountains: SNOWRIDERS is out today (and it's 'free' on Gamepass) and it is as amazing, fun, exhilarating, and maddeningly addictive as LM: DOWNHILL was.

And now it has co-op and MP?!?

For better or worse, play this and you will lose HOURS of productivity! :)

No matter how horrible the day, I can always count on the Universe showing me there is reason to have faith in the joy of existence :). And yes, that is

Thanks to all involved for bringing back one of the best heroes of all time to the world. It's been way too long.

Just wrapped Indiana Jones and the Great Circle and it's easily my GOTY, the second best Indy story ever told, and it's breathing down the neck of ELDEN RING for my favorite game of all time. What a fucking delight.

YouTube video by David Jaffe Should YOU PLAY Indiana Jones And The Great Circle?

Been playing it all weekend and I think I'm at the half-way mark of #IndianaJonesandtheGreatCircle.

While this isn't a review, this short video answers the question I've been asked: Jaffe, should I play the new Indy game?

Let's discuss :)...

Agree. I think it's actually better than FORZA HORIZON and Horizon is fantastic!

You seem to have misunderstood the tweet and the purpose of the tweet. We were discussing on the stream the moment where the conceptual aspect of a play mechanic vanishes and (for some) something simply becomes a mechanic. And does the horror of the scenario delay or prevent that shift?

Indy Liveplay kicking off at 5pm!

Indy and Raiders changed my life literally. So excited to meet back up with my childhood hero!

Every generation has this and I was a little old to be caught the center of the NES madness (for me it was Atari) but this image still thrills me.

LOVED seeing this in stores; loved the fucking smell of the games and the boxes.

Any idea what this will be for today's kids?

I had 10 video game characters over for Thanksgiving dinner. Can you guess the character who ate this?

Answer- and the other guest's food choices- in the video...

Not that it needs to be Xmas season to play this but it certainly is nice when it is :).

My PC is pretty good BUT 100% on GeForce Now. Even if I can play the thing locally, if it's on GFN, that's where I love to play. Love I can turn the visuals all the way up, don't have to worry about hard drive space, download times, updates. You just click and go! WONDERFUL!

It's insanely true and it will just get more and more viable for people. What a shift we will see in game design as more and more people start to get the games right from the cloud and biz model elements that caused specific design choices fade away. So excited!

Charlie Brown has untreated depression(chemical, situational,mix) OR he's undiagnosed neuro divergent.But back then, no one knew. But today, the way they treat him is just fucking cruel. I wonder if Charlie Brown (or Pig Pen for that matter) could fly in today's market if they were new characters.

Yeah, very few games that don't. I assume since it's Early Access and a hit, we'll see a lot more variety. But man, I've played 5 hours and even if I only play 5 more, that's good value IMO. Rather have 10 great hours than 50 'meh', you know?

Yes indeed, TCG Card Shop Sim #TCGcardshopsimulator is as fun and addictive as they say. And I'm not a TCG IRL Player AT ALL. Still loving it!

Honestly don't think it's nostalgia.Movies-as the popular art form-have really fallen off in the last 20 yrs.I'm almost certain mid 80s to end of 90s represents the last time movie stars,directors,and all variety of movies really mattered to a large %of the culture.So glad I got to be there for it.

Is it just me or does CALL OF DUTY run great and is a blast but whenever I start it up on PC it has to reload and restart at least once and often times 2 times before I can play? What exactly the fuck is happening?!? #thankstrump

Goodness, it's nice here.

I've spent way too much time scrolling this morning instead of working because it's just so damn nice to be surrounded by great energy.

It's like being wrapped in blankets on a cold morning and you really do not want to get out of bed.

Well this is the most delightfully disgusting thing I've seen in many a year. I adore it. And I want to vomit. Which I adore.

Goodness, people are weird :).

Oh, this one is staying in the box. It'll be worth at least $500 in a year :).

Did I just order one? I did! And I suggest you do the same before the recall!

I'm 53 and only in the last year have I really started to play and experience #dungeonsanddragons and I must say: it is delightful!

Been a WEEK my pals. Time for COD MP and some POT!
Let's. FUCKING. GO!!!!! youtube.com/live/hJ3MWQV...

Hello humans! Good to see everyone :). Hoping this place stays kind and pleasant while still supporting and embracing different ideas and types of people.

WARNING: I tweet a LOT.

NOTE: Tweet is an all encompassing verb at this point, IMO. Like KLEENEX or XEROX used to be :).
