Satire: Games Industry Absurdity, Properly Escalated

Gaming satire? Where would you even find such a thing? Right here, at Mainstream Outside. And regularly, too, because we’re independent, for one thing, and because we apparently can’t help ourselves, for another.

We take the setups CEOs hand us and build a launch ramp underneath them, just so their statements can really take off. A new industry trend already seems ridiculous to you? Wait until we push it to the next satirical level. But games journalists like us aren’t spared either—nor is any other industry figure who forgot their morning reality check.

In the mood for a big grin and a gentle head shake? Below, you’ll find all satire pieces published on Mainstream Outside so far.
