https://t.co/ApsFLfTLtl Just threw together a YouTube channel serving as a one-of-a-kind hotspot for watching the episodes of the TV show including other things. Haven't uploaded anything yet because I need to deal with that part but here's the channel for those who wanna sub.
20th anniversary in 2-3 months (show premiered in late August in the US, early September in Canada) maybe an extra 2 months given the game came out in November.
Considering the 20th anniversary is coming up, this is probably perfect timing. But who’s to say this will actually turn out great in the long run? Only time will tell what they go about doing with the franchise if they revive it, but I am cautiously optimistic.
Matthew Ball is now Xbox’s new Chief Strategy Officer after CEO Asha Sharma announced the hire this week.
He is a well-known gaming expert who writes the popular yearly report called State of Video Gaming, and many people in the game industry respect his ideas because he has advised Microsoft before on the Game Pass service.
In his new job, Ball wants to revive some of Microsoft’s old popular game series such as Banjo-Kazooie, Viva Piñata, and Blue Dragon, since these classics still have fans and can generate money.
He also wants to strengthen the Xbox console business and make it more profitable as the industry shifts toward subscriptions like Game Pass instead of single-game purchases.
Ball believes Xbox can grow by focusing on these services and legacy series.
digging through 00's tv archives you'll remember how unavoidable star wars was
pre-disney lucasfilm let anyone with a pulse put the brand in their commercials and even without one studio executives were encouraging creatives to reference it as much as possible
We lowered the sails on the S.S. #FanArtFriday once more, and the first heading for 2026 took us to Instagram where we found Viva Piñata's Leafos by artsyicey and a moody @SeaOfThieves number from maria_ronold_artwork! That'll do nicely, have a good weekend.
As we trudge to the end of the seventh week of the month, we offer you a pair of exquisite Instagram #FanArtFriday delights to help take your mind off the temporal anomaly known as January. The Viva Piñata piece comes from avocobbo, while the very junior Reaper is by colourmefun.
As the weekend nears, the #FanArtFriday post can be seen creeping from its lair, to perch on the timeline and display its finds in the evening sun. This week it has two pieces from Twitter: a Viva Pinata piece by @snekjoyy and a @SeaOfThieves work from @MiddyMidMid. Magnificent.
We aren't at our laptops right now, but through the wild magics of scheduling tools and trust, our scrumptious 2025 Holiday Card should be below to wish you all a wonderful time and unbridled celebrations! Happy holidays you zany lot, we'll speak again next year.
