Senior Editor, Kotaku. I like old games, VR, music, workers, women, and low-res displays. Tips: ahall@kotaku.com

Please stop. As other folks have tried to tell you, your attempts at “just pointing out” things aren’t needed or helpful. Read more

27+ years on, SMB is being rehabilitated! Lots of thinkpieces and posts around the net about how it’s actually pretty good. Read more

Thanks for all the Tamsoft history, didn’t know it. I actually bought Guardian’s Crusade in the late ‘90s based on U.S. mags (or maybe one notorious mag, heh) painting it as a hidden gem, but didn’t play very far. Wasn’t impressed. Read more

You know, Kotaku is no stranger to Fortnite headcanons and even fan fiction. Read more

Yeah for sure, that’s my approach too. Problem I have is that I am so bad at finding time to actually play (and see each game through) that I never get past the first game in a series, and then new games in it come out, piling on, and I just get more and more stuck in the past.

Ungrayed for useful advice, starred for “rubbing at that little nubbin. Read more

Hopefully, as with a real banana, the face can be peeled off. I like the colors absent the Fortnite junk. Read more
