If you are a video person who was laid off today and knows how to shoot on location, please email me. I don't have a lot of work, but we will need videographers from time to time and I want to know you.

*Record Scratch* Freeze Frame. "You're probably wondering how I got here."

I am one of the eight IGN members laid off. During my three years at IGN, I worked for some of the best creators and writers around. I will miss them all dearly.

sorry to bail on the bf6 afterparty but my dog said No

always been more parkour than stealth. just so happens that some of the parkour is on roofs.

see some of you tomorrow (menacing).

I told my partner that with my love for middle-earth it’s probably still a purchase for me, but relegated to unsober/gummy game to make up for what it lacks. pls advise.

Giant Squid Studios brings an emotive dance to deserts with Sword of the Sea

Quite easily the most memorable, fantastic game I played at Summer Game Fest earlier this month. Loved everything about my time with @giantsquidstudios.com's Sword of the Sea.

Sword of the Sea Makes Skateboarding Meditative - VGBees Giant Squid has been carrying the Journey torch with pride for years now. This makes sense; after all, the studio is led by original art...

Sword of the Sea continues Giant Squid's tradition of contemplative, soulful work but now they've added shredding

anyway, log out of work. happy friday and happy summer! ☀️ 🏝️ 🍉

my brain trying to do a friday work day after a thursday day off is all sorts of discombobulated
