This is gonna sound gatekeepy af, but we should absolutely cook people who come into the gaming space with an air about them that signals that they know wtf they’re talking about and then put their foot in their mouth. This is a billion dollar industry. Do your research.
🚨NEW: Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick sat down today with @WSJ to discuss the launch of Grand Theft Auto VI.
The interviewer literally said straight to his face that they don’t have any major hits, despite the huge success of GTA 5 and Red Dead 2… 💀
Strauss’ reaction says it ALL… What a clueless clown she is… 🤡😭
As we begin to witness the backpedaling and attempts to save face of many a online grifter, I would encourage anyone unfortunate enough to know this man to never let him forget what a depraved, unhinged loser he is.
Asmongold rage quits after midterm results and says Trump sold out Republicans
"Okay, I'm going to be honest. I'm absolutely rage quitting. I'm so frustrated. I am so unbelievably frustrated. I'm so mad. I think Trump didn't do 50 different things he should have done. I think he should have gone a thousand times harder. I think that he wasted his time selling trinkets and nonsense."
"I think the fact that he wrote about the Epstein files and then was like oh well we're going to do the deportations, well wait a minute no actually we're not because some people got mad about it. Yeah I'm mad. I'm really mad because I supported Trump in 2016 and hoped he would win in 2024. And a lot of the vision and the ideals didn't happen. They didn't happen."
"What did we get instead? We got bloviating on Truth Social. We got constant calls for taking over Canada and Denmark and Greenland, which we kind of got some support for. But yeah I'm pissed. I'm really mad. I'm so frustrated. I think we've been sold out."
"I don't want to hate Trump completely. Trump did a lot of things that I was very happy about. Renaming stuff, some of it is okay, but overwhelmingly it just became so tiresome. Oh my God it became so tiresome. It was bad culture war slop. And they didn't even do a lot of that. So I'm frustrated. I am overwhelmingly frustrated. I'm pissed. I'm so mad. And you know what? The chickens have come home to roost. That's the way it is."

Critics are calling it the best campaign since Modern Warfare (2019). Some even say it's shaping up to be the best marketing by Patrick Coyne (among many talented others)!
Always fun seeing your name in the credits of cool stuff! Go play Modern Warfare 4!

If DMZ ends up being good and my audience loves it, I don’t know how much I’ll bother with ARC Raiders for a while.
I’ll always come back to ARC Raiders for updates BUT…
The whole PvE vs PvP lobby thing and aggression based matchmaking sort of killed my excitement for the game.
Embark is already a small studio that has a hard time getting content out as fast as people want.
They aren’t going to be able to make a PvE experience that is MEANINGFUL for a long time. I see the potential but I worry for the execution.
Now they are trying to please two completely separate audiences, offering two different modes, and the game feels like it’s losing its identity (or maybe gaining a new one).
In DMZ instead of seperating PvPers and PvE players, aggressive players will be punished by the bounty system.
PvE guys will have opportunities to take out known killers and earn money and rewards from it.
Thats the type of extraction shooter I want to play.
Everyone is together, with systems of checks and balances for all playstyles.
I’m worried ARC Raiders is going to lose itself along the way.
There simply was not a world where Geoff allowed GTA VI to not be eligible for the game awards.
Not sure if it is genuinely because Russian data centers got firebombed but Twitter has been feeling significantly less ass lately and I'm about it.
The term “rat” has been co-opted by extraction shooter tourists and has lost all meaning. It is now a catch-all for people who don’t even like extraction shooters to complain about literally any friction between them and free loot.
Love being reminded how much @BenAffleck knows ball.
Ben Affleck says he spent 3 years at home playing StarCraft after becoming famous
“There was a game called StarCraft that probably took the most life out of me for a period of time. I had just got famous and all I did was stay home for three years and play StarCraft”
“I love Valorant. It's a great game. The problem with that game is that with kids that have been raised playing, I just get f**king rocked. I'm like, ‘Are you f**king cheating?’ And I get mad. It's very humiliating”
“I love 2K. I love Madden. And the early Doom, when I first played that game, which then gave rise to Quake. We played that endlessly for hours when we were doing Good Will Hunting. I remember writing and taking these long breaks to play Doom”
Nothing to be alarmed about, people. Tom Hanks is reportedly in good health.

Big day for Care Bears.
