BDS really shone the light on how so-called "Journalism" in games media operates Entire websites doing their shitty little "aggregation" about every minor twitter/bsky drama, posting every possible rumour from Reddit accounts that have 10 upvotes total and discussing it BDS tho? Never heard of it
Mitch DyerInteresting that almost all analysis of Xbox in freefall completely ignores an organized boycott intended to harm the company financially. Meanwhile, multiple news stories on the home page all month about PlayStation boycotts that haven't even happened yet.

Like I'm sorry, but if your job is game news and the first and last paragraphs of any news you write about Microsoft do not include "BDS" and a mention of the layoffs in them, you are not a journalist. You are marketing.
Will BorgerRemember: you don't gotta carry water for or amplify news about a company that is profiting from a genocide and fires people like it's going out of style

Having a hobby/job in making stuff for the internet is great because absolutely every platform and everything tied to your livelihood is handled by corporate wankers who will always find a way to fuck someone over while stealing YOUR money for their glorified money forwarding service

New video! Cool Games(?) you may have missed(?) in 2026(?) so far. A handful of recommendations that somehow turned into extended musings on games as a whole. Featuring STUNTBOOST, Elfie: A Sand Plan, Blood Dungeon, and more 👀 youtu.be/26feHFM0vbA
Continuously amazed that people running the biggest AAA studios are all dumb on every single front, I think the real magic is that any games are getting made at those studios at all
Chris BrattBack in October, Rockstar Games fired 34 employees for alleged gross misconduct. The severity of these firings could have spelled the end for a burgeoning union effort that was underway, but it didn't. In fact, the union is now *bigger* than it's ever been before. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ym4z...
