#2 Batman: The Telltale Series (2016)
A disappointment following the excellent writing in Wolf Among Us & Tales from The Borderlands. So much spoon-fed exposition and the drastic swings in tonal delivery of lines, leaves me hoping S2 is better. Action is great though.
2/5
✨FINISHED GAMES 2025✨
#1 Ghost of Tsushima (2020)
Combat is the star here. Tough but so rewarding to beat bosses. A few times the game bends its own animation rules which is frustrating. Bravo to the environmental art team. Hoping Yotei isn’t bloated content/budget wise.
4/5
Just got done catching up on the full #GameAwards2024 and daaammmnnn that was a good show 👏🏽🔥

On this day in 1999, 25 years ago, Pokémon Gold & Silver were first released.
These games started the second generation and had you travel through Johto to defeat Gyms and defeat Team Rocket before heading back to Kanto!

4/6 ain’t bad! Well done to Balatro and and Black Myth for the noms. I think Elden Ring or Astro will take the cake 🏆 #GameAwards
Haven’t played too many form this year yet, but Astro Bot is on top. I have a feeling Animal Well will be up there once I get to it.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth
Astro Bot
Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree
Silent Hill 2

What’s your take on discoverability on storefronts, Mat? Is there something you’d like to see platform holders implement to give indies more exposure?
Happy to hear an Xbox handheld is confirmed. I would really love to take Game Pass and my existing library on the go. I suspect we see next gen box in 2026 and then a handheld shortly after.
Looking for friends who love talking about video games 👋🏽
Some of my favourites:
Ori
Halo
Inside

Just hoping this blue app isn’t as depressing as the other one.
