When I got laid off from Game Informer (almost a year ago to the day) Matt helped me publish a piece on Baldur's Gate 3 I'd worked on for our next issue. He got it up on IGN AND helped me when my payment didn't come through for several weeks. He's a good dude, a great writer, and you should hire him

This is wild news. I guess this is what it feels like when sports fans see a star player get traded from one team to another. Except in this case, heโ€™s also still playing on his original team.

Charles stands next to Joe Manganiello for a picture. Charles holds a signed copy of the HeroQuest expansion, โ€œJoe Manganielloโ€™s Tomb of Perpetual Darkness.โ€ Joe holds his dog, Bubbles, an awkward 12-year old Chihuahua who looks like heโ€™s been old his entire life.

Played Joe Manganielloโ€™s HeroQuest expansion with the man himself last night at Gen Con! You can read all about it (and the rest of my first Gen Con experience) in the next issue of @gameinformer.com

Also, he brought Bubbles the dog! What a dog!!!

This is not made up! Itโ€™s called a 3-way on the skyline menu! I also am pretty sure the food term came first

Thrilled to announce that starting today, I am a Video Editor for Game Informer.

I'll be returning to my roots in more ways than one, working alongside an absolutely incredible team to make all kinds of content about games, developers, and the mag itself.

Waited 90 minutes in the delta help line and ultimately decided to just leave (no one was getting vouchers or anything so far and I already rebooked online). I tried to be polite and walk around the long roped-off line when a guy said, โ€œGo under. The presidentโ€™s a felon. Thereโ€™s no rules anymore.โ€

Wow, okay. Flight canceled after 7 hours of delays. Awesome!

Flew to NY this weekend to meet my family, who drove from Ohio a few days ago. Today, they dropped me off at the airport as the first stop on their long drive home.

In an amazingly stupid twist of events, my flightโ€™s been delayed so many times that theyโ€™ll be home 10 minutes before I land (2:13 AM)

Also, if you see me, feel free to say hi! I am very tall, so you will probably spot me first.

Hey, y'all! I'm going to my first Gen Con next week! I've got tickets to a couple of events, but I'm mostly planning to keep it chill and just stroll through all the booths. That said, is there anything there I should make a point to do or see?

Both! Iโ€™m 6โ€™6โ€ and I think theyโ€™re each around 5โ€™, though I donโ€™t know their exact heights off the top of my head. It was a very weird picture to take. My girlfriend said it looked like I was a dad posing with my two teenage daughters

That is definitely one of my favorite endings of a game, though I wouldnโ€™t say itโ€™s because of the bosses specifically

Whoโ€™s your favorite final boss of all time?

Alyssa is finally getting around to Tears of the Kingdom and Iโ€™m realizing that final fight sequence probably takes the cake for me.

Every time Pauline does her little vocal riff in DK Bananza, I feel like Iโ€™m watching Hannah Montana and we just came back from a commercial break

Keanu Reeves.

Keanu Reeves.

A rotund, anthropomorphic tree person named Hestu. Does not look like Keanu Reeves.

Alyssa is playing Tears of the Kingdom again since we have the Switch 2 upgrade. Just now she was like, โ€œdo you know whereโ€ฆ uhโ€ฆ whoโ€™s that guyโ€ฆ? Itโ€™s not Keanu Reevesโ€ฆโ€

Apparently, she was asking where to find Hestu. She got Keanu Reeves confused with Hestu.

The Game Informer Show #725 is live!

The crew digs into Donkey Kong Bananza, the complicated Pac-Man Metroidvania, and a fascinating top-down stealth game.

I just love this energy. This is how I feel when someone makes me a home cooked meal that absolutely slaps. What a good show.

Having non-chefs judge the food puts everything in a much more grounded context. They love basically everything because these are professionally trained chefs โ€” they make good food! Itโ€™s a lot more fun to see them fit these stupid prompts than scrutinize technique and composition, imo
