This thread is dedicated to my ‘Games Completion Archive’ where I will log how well I do each year

The Channel 9 commentators constantly drooling over how good the play was, just to continue ignoring the put down that would eventually lead to the try being overturned 😂 #NRLManlySouths

Some legends are destined to be retold. Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis is a reimagining of Lara Croft’s iconic 1996 debut.

We are proud to announce our cooperation on this project with @CrystalDynamics and @amazongames. Bringing our passion and expertise into such an iconic IP is both an honor and a creative thrill. Crafting a modern reimagining of Lara’s original adventure is a responsibility we embrace with passion and absolute focus. With Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis, we’re expanding the universe while staying loyal to what fans have always loved. We can’t wait for players around the world to experience the results of our hard work and dedication.

This feels like a gut-punch. The game was supposed to release in 2025 and yet now it’s moved again to 2027. I’m so immensely disappointed 😔

[XBOX @XBOX]

This is year is packed with incredible games for XBOX players to enjoy, from Halo: Campaign Evolved, Gears of War: E-Day and Call of Duty Modern Warfare 4 to Control Resonant, Star Wars: Galactic Racer and Grand Theft Auto VI. In order to plan our game launches through the holidays, in a way that works best for players, we’re moving Fable to February 2027 so it can have the dedicated moment it deserves. We’re excited to be giving players a major new look at Fable, as well as our broader lineup, at XBOX Games Showcase on June 7.

@XBOX Ok that's pretty funny (XBOX)

@TheParraEels Embarrassing. Accountability needs to be had. No excuses for that performance

[NickName @NQuest63]

I genuinely think despite conceding 50 twice this season, this is by far Eels worst performance this year and its not even close #NRLEelsStorm

33 points down to win by 6.

Incredibly gutsy win, and I feel like Pies fans will rue what went wrong in that second half to lose that #AFLSwansPies

Reminder: just because you're not personally into a game, doesn't mean it's a bad game

What's very funny about the Mixtape discourse is that you can tell who never played their previous game, The Artful Escape

[🔪 American McGee 🖤 @americanmcgee]

In light of recent comments about the nature of games like Mixtape, I think it's worth noting that I strongly believe the idea of "games" exists along a spectrum. And that I don't consider myself a "game designer" in general. Only in a very specific range of design, narrative, and experience.

The games I enjoy and the games I create are often filled with long sections of quiet exploration. Something I've seen dubbed as "asset tourism" for the fact that you're strolling past 3D game assets that you may never see again.

On the other hand, I consider games like Silk Song (based on what I've heard) to be beyond the difficulty range where I can derive enjoyment.

There's nothing wrong with any of these experiences. Though they provide plentiful fuel for rage bait and general debate.

I say, make the games you want to make. And play the games you want to play. And beyond that, live and let live.

As an aside, this exact same debate springs forth with our @PlushieDreadful designs. People assume (incorrectly) that our designs are meant to be everything to everyone. The truth is, those designs express a very narrow area of the spectrum along which people experience trauma and mental/physical health issues.

As the internet once proclaimed, it's OK to not like things. And you don't have to be a dick about it 😂

Parramatta’s rare three-point winner explained.

NRL say correct process was followed, and foul play must be punished, regardless of time of match.

And why the Eels were never at risk of losing, even if penalty kick hit the posts.

@whits106 I appreciate you clarifying it to people, since a 3 point outcome has never happened before, but I expect better from former players and commentators to understand the rules.

[NickName @NQuest63]

Thank you. Was infuriating watching the Channel 9 commentary talking about these hypotheticals when I knew for sure it would be explained in the rule book.

[Whits B @whits106]

Section 13. Law 10 (b) explains the scenario at the end of that game.

The Cowboys could NOT have retrieved a missed penalty goal & scored a try to win. In regular time, play restarts with a kick off if Moses misses the goal, even if the ball stays in field.

The first ever three-point golden-point win. #NRLCowboysEels

HAHAHA AMAZING ENDING! 😆
A field goal and a penalty in the one play. #NRLCowboysEels

So we can learn to pick ourselves up.

Love this idea. Here’s mine.
Very excited for the release.

This is far out, but we made a SITE TO MAKE MIXTAPES!

Make them! Customize them! Share them! Link below!
Mixtape is out in 2 DAYS.

Honestly for me it's just Lego Doctor Who. Do one level for each Doctor recreating an episode from their era in the quintessential Lego format. I know it's been said before, but it's just a no-brainer for me.

[NickName @NQuest63]

This is such a fundamentally moronic decision by Sony.

Like this is almost 2013 XBOX level of anti-consumer behaviour.

And yet a lack of competition, now means we should expect more of this in the future.

[Culture Crave 🍿 @CultureCrave]

Any PlayStation game purchased digitally after March's sytem update will reportedly now require an internet connection once every 30 days to validate the license 🎮

If the console stays offline longer than that, the games will not launch until you reconnect
