GROSS I do not want this dumb guessing machine to wear my face

Pokémon Pokopia review – collectible creatures create their own perfect world Work together with a bunch of lovable Pokémon to restore a long-abandoned town in this novel, absorbing game that’s quite unlike others in the series

Troublingly obsessed with Pokopia. Sat down to play it at 8pm last night and when I looked up it was 1am. Have been unable to concentrate all day because I am wondering whether Marowak has turned up at the little grave site I made. It's got me good

Unfortunately, “Yo brother, legal team confirmed we can’t work with minors rn” is an instant classic

The PS5 remake of Demon's is the one 👌

Would you have chosen any of @mackeza.bsky.social's perfect console picks?

1. Super Mario 64 - 1996
2. Amplitude - 2003
3. Demon’s Souls - 2009
4. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild - 2017
5. Hollow Knight: Silksong - 2025

Love this game. One day I'm gonna make a list of my favourite Scotland-inspired games and this will be near the top

I told my parents about the state of the game industry like this: a game was announced in the prime spot of the game awards, then it came out and had 2 million players. so it was a collosal failure

Next book of 2026: Queen James (on audio). Come for the queer history (nobody ever told me King James VI/I was bisexual and homoromantic in history class), stay for the murders, double-crosses, religious in-fighting and ceaseless plotting that define this era of the Scottish and British past

I had a PS2 set up for YEARS so that I could just rip through a couple of songs whenever I wanted

Thank you so much! I feel slightly starstruck. (I once met Jes Bickham on a press trip and I'm fairly sure I scared him by reciting a couple of paragraphs of his Ocarina of Time review)

Heck yeah, Waterstones in particular have really gotten behind it 😁

YES

THRILLED to be on @simonparkin.bsky.social's brilliant podcast, what an honour. If you want to hear me ramble through basically my entire life history via video games, cue it up

For months, @jacksonwryan.com has been looking into why so many video games sites have become full of gambling and casino stories, unusual author images, and, most recently, the use of AI. We've connected these sites to Clickout Media. Here's what we've learned.

And now the two of them are apparently married!

I had never seen the full version of this. Even in a post RuPaul's Drag Race world this was a Moment

I wish you the VERY BEST, Ian, these cuts are so enraging

Ever invited someone you met in an online game to stay at your house?

In the early noughties, that kind of thing wasn’t quite as unusual as it sounds. @mackeza.bsky.social reflects on the early days of online gaming communities, her new Nintendo book and more this week.

gee I wonder

My kids have gotten into The Traitors. This show is a neurodivergent person's nightmare. A bunch of people round a table judging whether you have socially performed in a convincing enough fashion?? Anyone may be lying to you at any time and you have to figure it out?? TERRIBLE

The cover of Spent, a graphic novel by Alison Bechdel

Belated start to a books of 2026 thread, because the horrors just keep coming. First up: Spent by Alison Bechdel. Not as totally essential as Fun Home (her masterpiece, it would be *anyone's* masterpiece) but still a wonderfully observed piece of autofiction, highly recommend

Kieron this has ruined my Sunday
