I picked this up the other day because it's really rare to see an actual honest to goodness video game magazine these days. For no one's real enjoyment but my own I'm going to list the games from it in a thread and my own personal experiences with them if I have any.

Suddenly I find myself showered in an abundance of classic Godzilla and Gamera films to watch.

Definitely forgot about the incredibly tragic back story of Manny the Mammoth from Ice Age.
I know @stevesaylor 's story quite well, but I never get tired of hearing it and neither should you. A wonderful person and friend, and a remarkable advocate!

Mike & Laura check out another 90s Jim Carrey nostalgia trip. Is it still worth a watch? We'll tell you no lies. It's also not a lie to tell you this episode does something that hasn't been done in the previous 68 episodes! What could it be?! buff.ly/3q0uS6b
MORE.

Someone's wannabe goth past has gotten us into trouble. It's Queen of the Damned on episode 67 of Burnt Popcorn buff.ly/34VCMGC
Well said. I ain't getting any younger, and my eyesight certainly isn't getting any better as I get older. Just because I don't need accessibility options now doesn't mean I won't need them later. Just because YOU don't need them now doesn't mean YOU won't need them later.

I was answering some comments on my Dying Light 2 review on TikTok and someone asked why does every game have to be accessible to everyone. I was kinda proud of how I answered it, so I wanted to share it here. It's not the perfect 100% answer, but I think this sums it up well.

I don't care. I mean I do actually but you know. I'm quoting the movie.

I didn't kill my wife! See she's right there! Podcasting with me about The Fugitive. Search every outhouse, farmhouse, hen house, for your favorite podcasting listening service to hear this episode! buff.ly/3HkddwY
Got to say the tech with a shipping label slapped on the retail packaging left in the snow might be the final straw using a certain online retailer.

There's no point in naming them because they'll just offer me credit. As much as I like free money that would mean I'd have to shop with them again. Also it's not like you don't know who I'm talking about.

What do @SimuLiu @ddlovato @IssaRae @NiallOfficial @theestallion and I have in common? Nothing before today. But today thanks to @Twitter we are on billboards around the world!! This is at Yonge-Dundas Square in Toronto (basically Toronto's Times Square!) LIFE IS TOO SURREAL!!
Selfie of me at Yonge and Dundas Square in Toronto where in behind me is a building sized billboard above Toronto's Eaton Centre. On the billboard is a photo of me being very excited holding a controller while wearing a black Xbox hoodie with the original Xbox logo on it. There is also a screenshot of a tweet that I posted on Mar 9, 2021 saying NGL kinda wanna work for @Xbox now lol. The Twitter logo is on the top right.

Hey did you know we moved to a bi monthly schedule? Well we did! Here's the latest episode, which is a bit of an overkill on our part. Usually we do 20 years old or more. This one is over 500 years old. From a certain point of view. It's Romeo PLUS Juliet! buff.ly/3tygCUS

I now have 6 different messaging apps on my phone, some I only use for one conversation.
I have only ever played as Femshep. In easily a half dozen playthroughs across the series.

Why you should play Mass Effect Legendary Edition as Jane Shepard (aka FemShep)​ - great voice acting​ - gives game a different feel without changing plot​ - still a badass no-nonsense commander​ - only 32% have played as her so you can brag how original you are
