Yeah, he most likely is, although it's certainly difficult to keep up to date with all games out there. There's just so damn many of them nowadays. I still haven't gotten around to playing the highly acclaimed Gone Home he talks about in his article myself, for instance, and I've stopped trying to keep up with most mobile or Steam releases.
And my backlog of games I actively want to play is at least 20 games long at this point, and then I've got 50 more that own but have barely played, but not actively wanting to play (maybe eventually, when/if I play the others).
I mainly made that comment without realizing who the author was. I'm sure he's at least heard of games like Phoenix Wright and Life is Strange, even if he hasn't been able to play them.
I certainly don't always (often?) agree with him, either, but I do expect he's at least familiar with what's going on, especially in regard to game narratives.
