I am a huge spoiler baby. For me, trailers are spoilers. Conversations about trailers are spoilers. Posters are…
Joyfully, willfully, and with patriotic anger I sally forth to get my bucket head rattled in the hot new getting-medieval battle royale shriekathon Mordhau, live on our Twitch channel. I’m going to be too busy fearing cold death to utter my most energetic battle cries, so I’m going to need you to amplify my spirit in…
I’m streaming the just-released Sega Ages Virtua Racing on my Nintendo Switch over on our Twitch channel, because it’s Friday, it’s been a long week, and I wish it was possible for a real human to be as excited about anything as the announcer in Virtua Racing is about the player getting a “TIME BONUS!!!!!”
We’re continuing our quest to marry and kill ten spouses in The Sims 4 live on our Twitch channel! Last time our Sim became best friends with the Grim Reaper (aka “Greaper”). Today, she’ll give birth to her murdered husband’s child. Gross! Suggest baby names in the chat!
I’m playing Mortal Kombat 11's (reportedly excellent) story mode over on our Twitch channel. I played Mortal Kombat X’s story mode on Friday, so this seems right. Get over here! (Into our Twitch chat. I used that joke last week.)

I’m streaming the wild story mode of Mortal Kombat XL over on our Twitch page. Seriously, if you have never seen this story mode, it is so above and beyond. Get over here! To our Twitch channel!
Gita Jackson and I (Tim Rogers) are killing another husband in The Sims 4. It’s the Black Widow Challenge, live on our Twitch channel!

In July of 2017, I realized I’d never played Final Fantasy VII since learning Japanese. I decided to do so, and make…
I am streaming Final Fantasy XIII over on our Twitch channel. I’m playing it in English, which is fun, because I have never played it in English. I first played it in Japanese, 10 years ago. That’s the opposite of my video series in which I played Final Fantasy VII in Japanese after first playing it in English 20…
Me (Tim Rogers) and Gita (Jackson) are streaming The Sims (4) “Black Widow Challenge,” in which our Sim must meet, marry, cheat on, and then kill people. To you this may sound sick. To me it sounds like Thursday. Join us, loudly, in the chat!
I (Tim Rogers) am playing Assassin’s Creed III: Remastered over on our Twitch channel right the heck now. Please get all over the chat and yell as many obvious jokes as you can, such as “More Like Assassin’s Threed Three: Threemastered!”
