I'm bullish on RE9 winning lots of GOTY awards because I feel it's going to serve as a stand-in for the "RE Engine era" since 2017. Lots of them have taken awards but many of them have failed to clinch GOTYs universally. RE9 works well as a symbol for the whole period.

"RE9 is not even a top 5 RE game." I really cannot stress more how irrelevant that point is for the 2026 GOTY discussion. Open the schools.
The responses to this tweet showcase how weak reading comprehension has become. People are responding as if this is a ringing endorsement of the game or as if I said it is clearly the GOTY.
Not really sure where this "RE9 can't be GOTY" talk comes from. The first playthrough is exceptional and while it does have flaws for sure, look at the competition. It easily has an argument this year.

game was announced like 4 years ago and showed really nothing but cutscenes and it wasnt clear they even had a clear vision for it then started suffering delays, pretty clear it was going nowhere
‘MARVEL 1943: RISE OF HYDRA’ is reportedly light on actual gameplay, primarily using only one button throughout.
The game has also been “significantly cut back from its original vision both in terms of length and content.”

Is there a reason why the hookshot got so fucked with in the Ocarina remake. Looks incredibly ugly and now there are designated symbols?

I don't envy anyone stepping into this role. DC films have a permanent corrupted fandom attached to it, similar to Star Wars. Nothing you do will ever be good enough, you'll always have vocal detractors.
James Gunn and Peter Safran are stepping down from DC Studios.

Slipknot has always been such a ridiculous gimmick band. They got random guys who can't play music on stage wearing a mask and banging garbage cans. Member churn is so bad you can't tell who is part of the band or who is doing what.
The tea with Slipknot is that the [art] team allegedly hated working with them because they were lined up for awhile and "kept changing members so BHVR had to keep redoing the chosen Masks" alongside this, the band kept unapproving pitched concepts which led to even more redos.
Slipknot also was fuming that they were revealed alongside Iron Maiden (apparently they didn't know it would be) and wanted the complete solo spotlight which is why Slipknot released the update AFTER Iron Maiden even though it was originally planned for same update. They also got very mad that Iron Maiden had Survivor shirts and DEMANDED that Behaviour make shirts for them too, which were started and had concepts done, but Slipknot eventually forced them to cancel it as a whole. It's very unlikely they'll revisit this band again.
Sloptastic gibberish. Legitimately says nothing and works itself in circles. Must be using a particularly shitty AI model or alternatively gave it instructions that were highly contradictory.
Calling Bryan’s ending a "sad loss of self" as if it’s some tragic emotional melodrama completely misses how viral viral infection mechanics and body horror actually work in the Resident Evil universe.
Bryan wasn't an innocent victim fading away dramatically; he was an infected host succumbing to hyper-accelerated viral mutation after being bitten earlier in the film. Zach Cregger turning him into a bloodthirsty, mutated BOW that slaughters the scientists while desperately begging for a cure is pure, unadulterated body horror not a tear-jerker tragedy.
In Resident Evil, once the virus takes over your cellular biology, you aren't "losing your soul"—you are undergoing catastrophic biological metamorphosis driven by raw parasite aggression. Having him destroy the cure and roar at the military helicopters as a fully mutated creature is a classic survival horror ending: zero plot armor, total viral outbreak.
Stop trying to treat visceral viral mutation like an emotional soap opera. Read the lore. #ResidentEvil

some of the softest of the soft skills are vanishing like this. people do not open doors, say excuse me, shake hands, maintain eye contact, acknowledge the weather, respond to conversation with questions, reflect attention, as much as they used to.
washed-up has-been from 20 years ago, performing the same exact skit, and his work is just modern day minstrel show bullshit. joyous news.
Sacha Baron Cohen personally invested $3 million of his own money into the new Ali G film.
The film is rumored to have cost over $160 million to make, with 54 credited producers, including 13 executive producers.
It has since been pulled from theatres and total box office gross to date is around $3 million.
It is on track to be the biggest box-office flop in history.
I dislike RE6 greatly. I think the campaign is a slog, the story is terrible, and even encounter design is lacking. But I'll always defend the mercenaries mode, it's supremely fun and eliminates all of the problems of the campaign.

re5 gets maligned for the most random things. the high skill ceiling minimalist inventory is actually quite well done especially with chapter breaks for storage. getting down the muscle memory of reloading during melee animations is super cool.
that buffet with rows and rows of bland soggy meat just added ten more rows of trays full of, you guessed it, bland soggy meat
Crimson Desert's new DLC just made the entire map several times larger.
That massive open world from the base game is literally just a corner of the map now. 😭
And remember that the underwater areas are FULLY explorable.
