In case you missed it at Shacknews:

I'm going to level with you guys. By the time you're reading this, I'll be coming back from the big Summer Game Fest event that's being held for members of the press. That means I'm dropping this post off before I can catch up with the day's news. But be sure to surf Shacknews for all of the latest updates! There's a lot of news happening throughout the weekend!

And, because it's the weekend, go find yourself something to play!

"A demon who must skate"

"Robots... I hate robots!"

Eh, it's not the worst spill Spidey's taken.

This, naturally, introduced content creators to the impossibly hard world of Super Abotun World. Wanna experience the arc for yourself? Check out these videos from these top creators.

Level creator Abotun spent years carefully crafting this devious world of extremely difficult platforming, funny trolls, and impeccably timed comedy. If you want to experience it for yourself, you can try the world for yourself at--

You know, Nintendo... you make it really hard to like you sometimes.

Nothing but the Hotfix

We love Kirby here at Shacknews, which is why for this week's Games Done Quick Hotfix spotlight, we're taking a look at this run of Kirby and the Forgotten Land from the dynamic duo of JHobz and Keizaron. The First Step is wholesome entertainment for all and I encourage you all to check it out whenever you can.

Remember to catch GDQ's Hotfix shows every week at the Games Done Quick Twitch account.

This week in Shaqnews

Even when Inside the NBA is off, you know Shaq is still probably taking shots at Chuck.

IT'S STILL REAL TO ME, DAMMIT!

I got to go to my first AEW shows last week! So let's leave you with this clip from the AEW Dark taping that's going to air this coming Tuesday.

Isiah's going to hit the ceiling one of these days.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
