Itch.io's Bundle for Racial Justice and Equality is 742 games and other items for $5. [Update: It's now up to 1,657 games and counting.] The NBA is considering using crowd noise from NBA 2K to fill in the silence from empty stadiums this summer. And forget your backlog, the video game industry is raiding its own backlog.

 

So, what are you playing?

 

I just bought the single largest gaming bundle ever made—and 2nd place ain't even close. It's over on itch.io, it's called the Bundle for Racial Justice and Equality, and if you don't know why it's called that then pull up a chair, because in the now immortalized words of Donald "Childish Gambino" Glover: This is America. The only other bad news is that I'm largely computer illiterate, and I'm having trouble unzipping these piles of folders scattered all over the internet. I need an Install button and a Play button. If the executable is any more complicated than that, I'm generally lost. I will stop taking platforms like Steam and Epic Games Store for granted in that regard. I might start playing through the bundle with Quiet as a Stone, doubtful that there's anything more extremely my thing in the entire pile.
