I make videos for Kotaku. I make video games for myself and my friends. I like writing fiction. Someday I will publish a novel. Who knows!

you know, if anything — ANYTHING! — makes you contemplate suicide, you should probably stop doing it. and then you should talk to a psychotherapist as soon as possible! Read more

yeah, i wouldn't expect literature, though man! that's a story that goes some weird places. the game also has some really neat towns and locations and just keeps constantly changing and reinventing itself visually. it seriously feels like one of those sixteen-bit RPGs, come back to life. Read more

it's not about Pushing The Boundaries — it's about internal consistency. the "narrative" of that trailer is so full of plot holes it's 99% air and 1% plot. Read more

wow — normally i just wouldn't reply to comments like yours, though i literally praised every one of those games you mention. maybe you thought you were commenting on another article? Read more

yeah, prior to announcing this game hironobu sakaguchi was all like "gears of war is awesome . . . i'd like to make something like that, someday." and immediately the internet lit up with people meandering through brainstorms re: a final fantasy game starring scary-ripped bodybuilder bros.

i was definitely not at a rock climbing place! Read more

i played the heck out of this game . . . like two years ago. i am so cool. Read more

all due respect, sir, i believe the acronym CODBLOPS, which — let's remember! — activision used officially, pokes plenty of fun at itself. Read more
