Fun thing: If you remove all the text after ".png" in a PlayStation Store image URL, you can get some really high-rez art for wallpapers/thumbnails.
Here's the Marvel vs Capcom Fighting Collection key art in 4K:

The fact that we went from a stupid joke to putting Dan on a mystery flight and making a video about it in less than a week is the perfect example of why I love this silly website.
The shoot story of a real worker.
We put

Hey look, it's the first Giant Bomb Quick Look headed up by me! Cocoon rules, and I had an absolute blast checking it out with Jan. Make sure to peep the full video! 🙂
Hey,

Would love to see it happen! Seriously, thanks for listening to us (and already acknowledging how a rerelease could be improved, such as better rollback netcode).
The FGC WILL show up to support you guys if y'all can make this dream a reality.👍

I'm playing Stellar Blade! Here's a 🧵 on my thoughts 70% through the main story:
It's a blast! It tries to be philosophical like its biggest inspiration, but really shines when leaning into the "dumb fun" summer blockbuster nonsense character action games are known for.

Seriously. Right now. One of the best fighting games of all time (and my personal favorite), a pinnacle of "easy to learn, hard to master", a game with some of the best netcode in the biz even 10 years later, is *FREE* to play.
No excuses.
Today,
@XboxPublishing
and
@IronGalaxy
celebrate 10 years of Killer Instinct 2013 with the Anniversary Edition, which gives the fan-favorite fighting game a brand-new meta and a fresh look on modern consoles and PCs.

Our friends at

Had a chance to play the 6P cab at Galloping Ghost in Chicago, and it was great! I thought it was very cool to learn that the near-seamless ultrawide was achieved back then using 2 CRTs and a mirror; a technique used as recently as Dariusburst: Another Chronicle EX!
