Havent even posted this here, but I'm at PSX this weekend, and hope to post about the good stuff I'm playing throughout, but before we get into what's good, here's what was bad about the keynote last night.

A little late, because GOTY concerns took priority, but I reviewed the L.A. Noire remaster.
For the record, if this is, as guessed, testing the waters for a sequel, I'm very much for it.

I reviewed Doom VFR over at Gamespot. It's good! I just wish there was more of it.

Hot take: Nobody has written a piece/tweet/post that includes the words "Most Overrated" that I haven't inherently read as "I don't trust other peoples' joy, and in fact feel encouraged to murder it. Also I have taken pleasure in killing small animals as a child."
Politics is currently a trashfire, progress is slowing to a halt, and men of power the world over are being outed as scum, but on the upside, im attending Playstation Experience this weekend and thats pretty rad.
ITS GAME OF THE YEAR TIME. I CONTRIBUTED A BUNCH TO THIS.
P.S.--Dont @ me about where Breath of the Wild ended up, we regret nothing.
P.P.S.--do @ me about #1, that's EXACTLY what I'm gonna end up doing for my personal list.

I've heard three ironic covers of "Hey Ya" by Outkast and every person in each of those bands belongs in jail.

Wolfenstein 2 = Done.
In any other game, that ending would be as anticlimactic as Halo 2.
But Halo 2's ending didnt make anybody immediately want to get off the couch and kick a Nazi in the fucking taint, now did it?
When can I play a game as Lyudmila Pavlichenko
Got sucked into replaying Saints Row 4, like i usually do every few months or so. Swear to god, i dont understand how Agents of Mayhem came from the same studio that made a game this perfect.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING INTERNET
I went to Tamriel in VR and all i got was this lousy Gamespot article i wrote.

oh no, ive started final fantasy xv again this was a mistake now i have to play it again someone send help.
Ill be writing about this for Gamespot in a few days, but as someone who never fell ass over teakettles in love with Skyrim the way seemingly everybody else on the planet did? Skyrim VR is breathtaking.
Posting this again, updated with a statement on EA removing the microtransactions.

So, uh, i wasnt a fan of Star Wars Battlefront II. My review.

Birdsite: the world is burning, your heroes are rapists, and the bastards run free.
Mastodon: Your face looks BEAUTIFUL, your hair is nice too, do you like anime
This article from @xoxogossipgita scans like crazy. Aside from the dope fights, i was in that category that loved how much of it was good men striving to be good fathers to their children.
I mean that show's also ridiculous, and jesus fuck depending 5 episodes waiting for a Spirit Bomb to charge is some piping hot bullshit, but, yeah, this is all true.
