10 months ago I was in the parking lot of the veterinary cardiologist crying tears of sadness. My Boxer, Daisy, had been diagnosed w/serious heart disease at just 3 years old.
Today I cried there again, but out of joy. Defying all odds, she is CURED. Normal ♥️ size/function! 🥲

I didn’t review the original Gears of War back at OXM, but I did review Gears of War 2 and 3. And then I reviewed Gears of War 4 and Gears 5 at IGN.
Can’t stop now…

Unlocked is back! Michael and I had a VERY in-depth discussion on this week's phase of the Xbox "reset," and we spent the bulk of that time talking about Halo moving over to Activision. Lots to discuss! Check it out if you're interested: piped.video/watch?v=ntMZ0D8v…

Spoiler: they're going to reboot it. No, I'm not reporting anything because I don't know anything (I'm not even sure Activision has made any decisions yet either), but there's just no way Activision is going to just pick up where 343 left off. They're going to start fresh.
Halo fans are divided on whether or not Activision should completely reboot the franchise or keep Master Chief's story going. bit.ly/46BVEXJ

Felt really good to record Unlocked again. I think Michael and I had a pretty in-depth discussion on this week's phase 2 of the Xbox "reset." We also touched on the Destiny revival at the end as well. Looking forward to sharing it with you at 6am PT/9am ET tomorrow!

I've only barely started Control Resonant, but I just want to give @remedygames kudos for including a "Previously on Control" option right in the main menu (they've also released that video online). It's been 7 years since Control; I needed the catch-up! More games should do this

I've set myself up with a Ko-Fi to help cover some of the costs associated with video editing, but also, it's just an easy way to help support me as I work as an independent game reviewer and video creator. THANK YOU! ko-fi.com/sethfrommaine

Here are the rest of today's changes at Xbox. Hiding in here is some good news that State of Decay 3 will still be released on Game Pass on day one as Undead Labs goes fully independent: ign.com/articles/confirmed-m…

Well, @asha_shar is not afraid to shake things up, that much is clear! Halo Studios is now no longer making the next big Halo game. What a wild sentence!
So, can Activision save Halo? I wrote about it on IGN this morning: ign.com/articles/handing-hal…

I'm genuinely happy for the Destiny faithful out there after today's news. I hope y'all eventually get Destiny 3.

Another new one from me: as we head into another big Fall games season, I wrote about the magical Fall of 2007, which is IMHO not only the best season in Xbox history, but the best season in gaming history, period. Check it out if you're interested: ign.com/articles/fall-2007-w…

Signing Hideo Kojima could be the catalyst for an Xbox turnaround in the upcoming Project Helix generation. I laid out the case for why Physint, OD, & a little thing called The Elder Scrolls 6 could lead Xbox to a huge next gen. Read my new column on IGN:

I spoke to Hideo Kojima about the situation behind Physint’s move from PlayStation to Xbox.
He spoke candidly about the panic he felt for his studio, his staff and his game – and Physint’s future at Xbox.
Hideo Kojima shared that he feared Kojima Productions might collapse as a result of Sony's decision to cancel Physint.

ALT “So in June, SIE said they wanted to have a Zoom call…They said they can no longer fund development for Physint. I was shocked and I said, 'What did you say?' I couldn’t quite process what they had said. I wasn’t sure because I was in shock… We didn’t understand the reason. I didn't have any anger or sadness; my first thought was, 'What am I going to do with my studio?' …If we lose one contract, I thought I might have to cut all the people working on Physint, right? Or our studio could end up collapsing because we’ll run out of cashflow."

Happy 15th anniversary to my favorite Gears of War game, Gears of War 3! And no, not just because it came out on my birthday. 😁
I gave this an easy 10 out of 10 back at OXM for its phenomenal campaign with a great emotional conclusion to the trilogy + the best Horde and Versus.

I forgot to post last weekend’s homemade pizzas! Super proud of how these turned out. I once again made the Tonda Romana style. The family has been loving this thin and crispy style. 🍕

I wish people on here and every other platform would just pause before replying to a post and ask themselves, "Do I want to add negativity to this person's day?"
Not that we can't criticize something, but sometimes I wonder, "What did that reply add to the conversation?"

I enjoyed the heck out of Keeper.
Enjoy a story told without words, about an unlikely companionship and mystifying metamorphosis!
The unknowable awaits...KEEPER is available now on PC, Xbox, and PS5!
