I spoke to Pete Hines about his 24 years at Bethesda — the highs and the lows, his biggest regrets (canvas bags), the state of the industry, and more. dbltap.com/features/24-ye…

For years, even now, it’s been exhausting trying to convince people to try Prey 2017 because of the name. Whichever higher up refused to back down really robbed Arkane of the chance to be celebrated for what many see as their most in-depth immersive sim.

Like most outlets, we didn’t get a Borderlands 4 code. 2K did similar with Mafia. There’s so many good games coming out this month though that we kinda don’t give a shit because there’s no time to cover them all, and the other games don’t have anything to do with Randy Pitchford.

What's up sluts? Time to wish "DEATHLOOP" a happy 4th birthday! Still amazed by this unlikely game even existing thanks to the perseverance of Sebastien Mitton and yours truly, the trust of the team, the unwavering support of lovely people, and the (tough?) love YOU give us every loop

INTERVIEW: I met with 神谷英樹🍀 Hideki Kamiya🍀 and Kento Koyama at CLOVERS' Osaka studio to discuss their progress on Okami 2, the growth of the studio, and potential future with Capcom. videogameschronicle.com/features/inter…

Silent Hill f is excellent. Elevated horror where everything deepens your understanding of the story and each new run adds layers. dbltap.com/reviews/silent…

I spoke to Jason Connell about inspirations, spending time with Ainu, capturing the majesty of Mount Yotei, and sprinkling more variety and surprises into Ghost of Yotei. dbltap.com/features/ghost…

I wasn’t a huge fan of Tsushima, but Ghost of Yotei is a massive improvement in every area. dbltap.com/reviews/ghost-…

Avalanche is closing its Liverpool studio and laying off a portion of its global workforce following Xbox’s cancellation of Contraband. dbltap.com/news/avalanche…

Looks like the same shit as always, unsurprisingly

Spent over a week reviewing Baby Steps because at some point I realised it was art dbltap.com/reviews/baby-s…

It’s like being in a writers’ room. (Baby Steps is a GOTY contender btw)

Man, this is depressing. Used to dream about working there in its prime (but not moving to Croydon).

Ngl PS players are kinda proving why Atreus never shut up for a second😭

It’s funny because every publisher looked at his last pitch (AI) and said “nah”.
