I’m crying dawg are they gonna have to explain to old Steve who Dion Waiters is

[pauline kael bot @paulinekaelbot]

A good movie brought in terrible consequences. JAWS is really a terrific movie. I laughed all the way through it. Yet it marked something. Then, with STAR WARS coming on top of it—that awful STAR WARS and its successors—movies have just never been the same. (2001)

[Samuel Roberts @SamuelWRoberts]

Excited for HAL to win both Dion Waiters and Worst Hang.

[The Rewatchables @TheRewatchables]

Coming next week on @TheRewatchables — the oldest movie we’ve ever done.

[Brandon Streussnig @BrndnStrssng]

Used to be you could cast Paul Scheer in your movie. Now they get a hot MCU guy and force him to Scheer-maxx

I always love the 'Solid Snake calling you on codec' vibes of "This is Miyamoto."

[任天堂株式会社 @Nintendo]

This is Miyamoto. I would like to let you know that the worldwide theatrical release date for the live-action film of The Legend of Zelda has been moved up to April 30, 2027, from May 7. The team is working hard to deliver the film to everyone as soon as possible. There’s less than a year to go until release, so thank you for waiting.

[My Perfect Console Podcast @myperfectcnsle]

From leaving school at fifteen to work as a bricklayer, to shaping titles like Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, Jerk Gustafsson’s journey has been defined by making things, and then making them better.

Listen to the new episode with the Studio Director at @MachineGames: https://t.co/v6evn5boLj

[Samuel Roberts @SamuelWRoberts]

One of the PR bits I did a bit of work on for Indy's Switch 2 release next week!

[My Perfect Console Podcast @myperfectcnsle]

When @MachineGames’ studio director Jerk Gustafsson won $500 in a sports bet, he had to decide how to spend his winnings: on a new computer or an exotic pet.

The choice he made eventually gave us Indiana Jones and the Great Circle.

New episode, out Monday for Patreon supporters, Tuesday for everyone else: https://t.co/kHDlG335b5

[machinegames @machinegames]

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle will launch for Nintendo Switch 2 on May 12 at 7am ET. Update 8 launches for all platforms at 11am ET the same day.

In today's 'games media stories of very mild interest' – we signed a release form so Ricky Gervais could mention PCG in whatever terrible movie this was.

Actual game dev Jamie Smith helps us figure it out. Here's a preview about tailing missions in open world games:

@artofcatwoman Aren't April Fools jokes meant to be funny?

[Samuel Roberts @SamuelWRoberts]

This game rules, I'm glad to see it getting its flowers!

[PC Gamer @pcgamer]

If you're surprised Marathon turned out this well, I'm with ya. This time last year, I had all but written it off after trying that dreadful alpha with the cartoony art, no solo mode, and no prox chat. But Bungie made great changes and clearly knew what it had that other extraction shooters didn't.

This is a little known piece of knowledge for the Reels generation, but scenes used to have many other scenes attached to them, and you were required to watch all of them - we called the combination ‘movies,’ and sometimes some scenes were good but more were bad.
