Honestly tho fuck Babylon can I please trade it for Nomad instead, at least it has cover and it's not the size of a fucking phone booth

I knew I would love Promise Mascot Agency when my new co-worker, a severed pinky finger, asked for help to murder the corrupt mayor and bury his body in the woods. It would be a good bonding exercise, she said. Pinky, which actually is her name, is a star, but this game is a veritable galaxy full of stars. Its approach to gameplay is… unique, and it doesn’t always stick the landing, but the jump itself is so impressive you can’t help but give it a 10 anyway.

I like listening to oldschool videogame music. Recently I listened to some music of games I never played and one song in particular blew my mind. Its wonderful and since it lives rent free in my head, coming back to it over and over again. I'm loving it.

"Sacred Somnom Woods" in Mario & Luigi - Dream Team for the Nintendo 3DS. The composer is the well known Yoko Shimomura, also known for work on Street Fighter 2, Kingdom Hearts and many more legendary games.

To me this track has this Breath of the Wild or Tears of the Kingdom vibes to it. Because I did not play the actual Mario & Luigi games, I always interpret this as a Zelda song now. Its name does contribute to this factor too! Do you also have sometimes game music that captures you?

I've been working on a series for quite some time about the history of 3D in gaming. How it became a fad and fizzled away.

Welcome one and all to BigFriendly.Guide (or BigFriendlyGuide.c om, if you’re nasty). This is the new home for Jeffrey Parkin and myself, Ryan Gilliam. For the last 10 years or so, you’ve been able to find Jeff and my bylines all over a website called Polygon. We don’t work at that website anymore, due to circumstances beyond our control — namely Vox Media selling it and laying almost all of us off in the process. While we worked for Vox, Jeff and I worked on a lot of guide projects together and discovered we had a mutual love in the world of games: helping others enjoy them. So when we found ourselves unemployed, it didn’t take us long to come together and decide it was time for us to make something of our own. And thus, BigFriendly.Guide was born.

The thesis: We’re a completely employee-owned website — me and Jeff, we’re the employees and we own the joint — dedicated not to serving Google the kinds of guides it’s looking for, but serving you, our readers, community members, and, hopefully, subscribers.

Is this still a thing? Is it dead? Is there a beta?

One enemy left, I have no moves and must skip the last turn and lose...
