After playing the Tokon beta I need Magneto and Ghost Rider on my team now. I had a good feeling about Magneto but he is even more fun that I thought he would be! I really didn't expect to enjoy Ghost Rider as much as I did though! Glad the game is out soon, I want to play more!
I've been working on giving myself time to actually play and practice Street Fighter more and I have been really enjoying it. I can feel myself improving and and it's so sick! I'm lucky to have such a great local scene to help push me to be better too. Man, I love fighting games!
Still thinking about how rad Virtua Fighter Crossroads looks. A Yakuza style story and production for a fighting game series I love sounds almost too good to be true. I can't wait to learn more about it!
007 First Light may be one of my favorite games I have played this year. I finished it yesterday and loved the story a lot. The combat is a blast too and I really had fun messing around with all the gadgets! Also the watch laser is the best one, always take it. Thank me later!
I can't wait to hear all about where we are going next in FFXIV. Happy Fan Fest day everyone!
Thought it would be neat to get all the achievements in DOA6 before Last Round comes out and finished way ahead of schedule. Man, I love DOA. So stoked were getting a new one.
Finally have a look I like for Kliff in Crimson Desert. You know I cant pass up the opportunity to look like a pirate whenever I can.
I cannot wait to finally start up my Resident Evil 9 playthrough with @runeinherblood.bsky.social! I loved taking her through a game series that means a lot to me and seeing her as excited as I am makes me really happy we get to experience an all new entry together!
I have this feeling that we are going to hear that Harada left working on Tekken to move over to Dead or Alive. I think that would be pretty rad if he did. I still can't believe we are getting a new DOA. I am so stoked! Now we just need a new SoulCalibur!
Charlie and I 100%'d Absolum together! I love her so much and we both can't wait for the new update and to play even more together!
Real stoked for SoulCalibur 3 getting put up on PSN tomorrow. I really hope we get a new one soon.
Its finally snowing! Like for real! As much fun as it was shoveling our driveway last year, I am really stoked we picked up a snow blower for this year. Should be really nice!
I have also been playing a whole lot of Battlefield 6 to help prepare our coverage on GameSpot and I am having the best time! We played against a lot of bots during the preview time, so I can't wait for there to be more actual people to play with tomorrow!
After talking about it how good it was for so long, I got Charlie to start up Gintama, and its been so fun going back and watching through it with her to catch up again! We got to one of my favorite episodes last night and it was even better than I remembered it!
Kinda sad not to be at EVO this year, but I am very excited to watch from home and with friends over the weekend! Fighting games are so rad!
Dude, Donkey Kong Bananza is so good and makes me feel so happy! It's exactly what I hoped it would be! I can't wait to play more of it!
Maaaan, I cannot wait to play Donkey Kong Bananza later this week!!! Our air conditioning should be all set up by then too. Gonna spend the whole weekend being cool and jumping around grabbing bananas.
YO!!! I totally forgot Panty and Stocking season 2 starts up today!! 15 years later, we finally got there!
Donkey Kong Bananza has so many rad things to look forward to, but hearing the music that comes on when we get to this level is at the VERY TOP of the list for me. Stickerbush Symphony is like my favorite piece of video game music ever.
I have a big feeling that a lot of the inspiration for what Donkey Kong Bananza end up being was taken from that ending escape sequence from Super Mario Odyssey and that has got me really stoked. I love how important music seems to be in DKB too. Donkey Kong is so rad!! I cant wait to play!
Not them putting lyrics to the Donkey Kong theme and making me tear up first thing the the morning, no way, couldn't be me.
YO!!! Not only did they bring back the Secret Theater in MGS3 Delta, but they even ADDED NEW SCENES!?? This is one of my favorite things in they ever put in Metal Gear Solid 3 and I am so stoked that it's back!
I managed to get Yixuan and her w-engine in less than 40 pulls and that's wild. So stoked see what she can do!
Still can't get over how Walmart hooked it up with the Switch 2 preorder and threw in a bottle of Coke and a can of Pringles. Never had these ones before and I'm stoked! Can't wait to see everyone online in Mario Kart!
