Romeo is a Dead Man reviews are all over the place, and that absolutely tracks.
It's filled to the brim with odd moments and decisions. It's fun enough, but its frenetic and bewildering narrative choices made it hard to parse and difficult to score.

Just found out that I'm listed as a source on Wikipedia for No More Heroes (video game) and can't believe how monumental this minor achievement feels.
Happy Friday to you guys

It feels weird to do this on January 1st, but better late than never! Here are my favorite games, movies, TV shows, and albums of 2025:
Not a bad way to spend the afternoon
Didn't realize how hard I fell back in love with Destroyer this year, but that album will always have a special place in my ❤️.
#HorrorWritersChat Unfold is my second book and first horror. It is a slow burn workplace thriller that escalates into a gory creature feature. Releases on December 15 for paperback and Kindle www.amazon.com/Unfold-Trist...
I still consider The Master to be my favorite PTA experience, but one more viewing of One Battle After Another might finally dethrone it.
Not enough people are simping for Blippo+ ( @blippo.plus ). Speaking as a narrative game designer who loves retro tech and culture -- get this. Soak in the vibes. Explore the narrative. Surf the channels. It's on sale right now and more than worth it. store.steampowered.com/app/3323850/...
Okay, see you next year! (just kidding, still have Metroid Prime 4 and the Mortal Kombat Legacy Kollection to buy in a couple of weeks)
No musical special. No Xander. No Spike. No Cordelia Chase. No Daniel "Oz" Osborne. No Willow-meets-her-doppelganger episode. Nothing.
My daughter installed Mario Party onto the Switch 2 and now she's just sitting in a corner saying "I'm bad at this game" every few minutes. Not sure when to let her off the hook and say "no, you're not the problem here, it's this garbage-ass video game's fault."
A lot of unwanted changes coming from above, a steep dip in traffic, and deeper issues within the leadership structure, all this unfairly ends with me and most of my coworkers fired. I can only solidarize with everyone fired today, they're the most talented people I've come across in this industry.
I gave my notice to TheGamer back in August, devastated to find out that the website has laid off most of the amazing people that made the site such a unique and special place.
Playing Earthbound for the first time ever in 2025 is fascinating, actually. You're just a kid and the world's gone mad. All the adults are useless at best or trying to kill you at worst. Everyone talks like a crazy person. Everything's too expensive. Your next door neighbor wants to be a dictator.
It's been over a decade since I've seen Broken Social Scene live, but my favorite band ever put on a great show last night.
Ran into Kevin Drew before the show and was able to talk with him for a bit too, couldn't have asked for a better night.
But...I already have Super Mario Galaxy on my Switch with the 3D Collection?
Make that two Kyle's, played through it back in 2018.
Bit of personal news: after four years, I've been let go from @thegamerweb.bsky.social and am a free agent!
If you need someone with half a decade of TCG and tabletop and over a decade of video game coverage experience, please get in touch at joe@joeparlock.com!
Taking a break from everything to recalibrate myself. Maybe I'll return someday with more writing, streaming, or something else.
I'm just excited to play some games without having to write about them or brainstorm pitch ideas to help me meet a quota.
