Happy Birthday to the #Playstation 2! The most iconic console in gaming and the most jam-packed with iconic masterpieces. From Walkmans, to movies, to online gaming and imposing presence the PS2 delivered on all fronts and rightfully deserves its place as king of consoles.

When the Tyranny of King Washington was released in 2013 for #assassinscreed 3 it was wildly applauded and praised by the gaming community. Now, in 2025, projects of similar story and cultural critique are cowardly and quietly cancelled. Fuck right-wingers and all the grifters that build them up.

Trump claims that Portland is full of dangerous criminals and is a threat to the nation.

He’s sending 200 National Guard troops and militarizing the city.

How are these “dangerous” people fighting back?

They’re organizing an emergency naked bike ride.

That’s right… the country is under threat from naked bike riders.

I love you Portland. Stay weird.

Both the #stateofplay and the #nintendo direct were awesome and served up some incredible videogame announcements that illustrate the diversity of experiences that is gaming. It always drives me mad how gamers will pretend that gaming is sterile and boring yet always dismiss everything

I’ve been thinking of taking the Lalafell pill in #FFXIV , life just seems happier that way.

Everything in the #Battlefield6 beta so far paints an optimistic picture for the game’s release. From the different art direction of each map to the organised chaos it exhumes. The future is looking bright! ✌️

TIL the Kensington Turbo Mouse can use a billiard ball.

Been wanting to migrate from a DPS to a Tank in #FFXIV but the stress is too overwhelming 💔🥀.

#Nintendo fans are never beating the “Only Play Nintendo Games” allegations if this is how they react to the latest showcase.

Arma shenanigans.

Can’t easily snag a cool picture in #eldenring nightreign due to its fast-paced/online nature so I cheated and took & edited a snap from a cutscene 🤪.

On #stopkillinggames( https://www.stopkillinggames.com/eci). While a healthy conversation is always welcome ,and diverse opinions from inside the industry doubly so, SKG should be signed by every single #gamer irrespective of the outcome. It’s about protecting consumer’s rights simple as that 😤.

The best summer #gaming even is now live!!

What a devastating blow to the medium. It’s extremely disheartening to see talent after talent facing the chopping block in this industry. From Mikami’s Tango to Romero’s own studio every single legend that made gaming what it is today gets pushed out so that more…(1/2)

Good Evening! #gaming #virtualphotography

You would see middle aged people buy a PS2 just so that they could listen to their favourite #Walkmans or to watch their favourite movies. Not to mention the incredible selection of games made that solidified gaming both as an art form and a hobby. In Europe and Asia PS2s are STILL being traded and modded and older bought consoles still function. You just had to be there, no other console has come close. Older people call every piece of electronics a PlayStation to this day due to the fact.(2/2)

With console hardware sales being announced a lot of people are taking shots at #Sony’s #PS2 absurd numbers of consoles sold. The thing that I need young zoomers to understand is that the #PlayStation had a such a cultural grip on BOTH gaming AND media consumption. (1/2)
