Couldn’t be happier or more grateful to say I’m in this latest book from the geniuses at @lostincult. The editors let me write about a weird game, and do something a bit different. I hope you Mvania fans love it.

The problem is that social media is terrible. It is built to be terrible and enrich its owners. The only way to engage with any hobby today (and with society at large) is to just have a few magazines you read, a few sites you like, and just enjoy life. Social media is not real.

i deleted my fighting game tweet. honestly this is why i'm not on gaming podcasts anymore. i actually turned down a good paying opportunity to be on a gaming podcast at a publication. i do not like doing it anymore. you all are good at reminding me how boring it is.

@RedWavePress If there’s one thing I’ve learned in life, it’s always trust a billionaire.

NAILED IT: Jeff Bezos: “A nurse in Queens who makes $75K a year pays more than $12K a year in taxes. Does that really make sense?” “So people talk about making the tax system more progressive. How about we start by having the nurse in Queens NOT pay taxes? At all!” “Why is a nurse in Queens who makes $75K a year paying more than $1K a month in taxes?” “That’s $1K a month that could help with rent or groceries or anything.” “And by the way, do you know what that all adds up to? The bottom half of income earners in this country pay only 3% of the taxes. It’s only 3%.” “We can find 3%. So we don’t have... it’s a small amount of money for the government. You know that. And the more I thought about it, to me, it’s kind of absurd that we’re doing this.” “We shouldn’t be asking this nurse in Queens to send money to Washington — they should be sending her an apology. It really makes no sense.” Exactly!

@xuwu @kmonkeyblog The greatest barrier for most people with VR is still and has always been wearing a heavy, uncomfortable headset. The company that makes one work like swimming goggles will break through.

Tried a VR/MR headset today that’s expected to launch later this year, and it exceeded my expectations. Some of the things people in the industry have been imagining are already realized in this device, including weight and performance. I used it for a lot of different things, and you can really feel the years of work and iteration behind it. Can’t say much yet because of the NDA, but I’m sure many people can probably guess what it is. The second half of this year is going to be very interesting.

What are your most MEMORABLE MOMENTS in video games? Moments that you can’t stop thinking about, moments that made you realize games are art, or made you laugh or made you cry, or made you think. For me, Psycho Mantis in MGS. The 70 man fight in Shenmue. Ending of Pragmata.

Among Giants is difficult, opaque, occasionally frustrating, and one of the best, most atmospheric, and most immersive VR games in years. Read our full review: uploadvr.com/among-giants-r…

I’m trying to trim down my Nintendo DS collection Which 3 or 4 would you say are the worst games that I should get rid of? What DS or 3DS game do I not have that you think I need?

It’s called having a hobby. A passion. Happiness. Nostalgia. For some reason people tend to hate on others who play video games. Whether it’s for fun or for their career it’s shamed on. I’ll never understand it. Game on no matter how old you are. ITS ATTRACTIVE. ☺️ What a bozo.

Hey everyone. These accounts are monetized. They post things like this to get people mad, which gets people to reply, retweet, and engage, which MAKES THEM MONEY. They are manipulating your emotions to make money. Do not engage.

Re: talk about MGS3 being influenced by MGS2’s reception, it’s very obvious who was actually around when it released and who wasn’t. I won’t get into the weeds here, but if you think it wasn’t the case, I have a bridge to sell you.
