Back in 2012, Playground Games popped the clutch on the first Horizon Festival in Colorado, setting a new benchmark for open‑world racers. Each (very much Xbox only) sequel has since ramped up the spectacle: Horizon 2’s sun-drenched Riviera, Horizon 3’s bonzer Australia, and Horizon 4’s soggy Britain.

The Nintendo DS turns 20 in Oz today. A brightly backlit frontier opened up to me when I first opened the clamshell of this silver beast. In time, it birthed the DS Lite, DSi, and DSi XL to the tune of 154M units sold. Also, bangers aplenty in its insane 3,000+ games library. https://t.co/D0uVxTVvkH

Well, I'm addicted to #EldenRingNightreign and the zippy as hell, bane of kidneys everywhere Duchess class. Here it is running on a PS5 Pro rather well indeed. Can't wait to play more. https://t.co/a4naCHWLPp

Gran Turismo 2—two PS One discs I played the absolute scratch 'n' sniff off of, for an "authentic pit stop smell"—is 25. Just a brilliant sequel with more cars (650) and more tracks (27 plus rallying) and my very first exposure to Laguna Seca's corkscrew. Thanks for signing, Kaz. https://t.co/5vAgIHKRc5
