i don't know what is going on but i guess i'll buy Tenet on sale for $20
i can confirm it's real.

tenet in 4K is really only $20 already
btw Pence's "bio" site also says the same date, so it's either some kind of website error, or congrats to Senate Pro Tem Chuck Grassley for becoming president for the next 8-9 days lol

One thing I adore about Assassin's Creed Valhalla's storytelling is how Eivor speaks with clear intent and emotional clarity. She always speaks in a manner so she is never misinterpreted or misunderstood.

also Valhalla might be my fave AC game ever now?

i'm also grateful that one reader left a comment saying that my piece was about "perception and shared experience." exactly. that's the most fascinating theme of Assassin's Creed Valhalla. washingtonpost.com/video-games/re…
i have harped on Ubisoft for having the "worst writers in AAA."

AC Valhalla shows i'm not always right. Valhalla's character work is a quiet revelation. Everyone is distinctive, has clear reasons why they're in the story, what they chase. Great work.

I've been working on this story for a while. The Metaverse is the next version of the Internet. And some believe that as of today, Fortnite has the best chance at doing it. washingtonpost.com/video-games/20…
This piece was partially inspired by @ballmatthew's great February essay, linked below.

But it's also Epic Games's very public ambition to create the Metaverse. Fortnite is far from done.

And the Metaverse seems more realistic in our current situation

Fortnite's ability to draw intellectual property from so many different sectors of media (sports, Disney, TV shows, Netflix, superheroes) is one of its biggest strengths.

That and its ability to draw millions to participate in a synchronized event washingtonpost.com/video-games/20…

Google Stadia was unplayable at times. That won't be acceptable for any gamer.

But it's hard to "review" Stadia since it's an ongoing service. It's like reviewing YouTube on its first day.

But if we were to talk about what it is now: It's not good.

here is my Google Stadia review in one GIF.

this is on The Washington Post's Gigabit Ethernet last week.
here's the thing: Google Stadia worked WONDERS and almost perfectly when tested on a Google Pixel 3a XL.

this thing is a freak of nature, but Google Stadia is now the most powerful way to game on mobile.
