They do what?! 🤔

The upcoming Worms game is slowly leaking...
I'm a huge fan and a big hater: the old 3D entries are buggy on modern systems. The recent 2D one is not having any sustainable online. Just a few crazy no-lifers who rope themselves around the map in seconds.
And I'm better than all my friends so they only played once or twice, lost and never played again.

Devolver working with Sarkeesian.
We're never escaping 2014, are we?
Fake Apple AI ads can now get people up to $95 per device 😏

Just found out that since 2023 Xbox bans "unauthorized gamepads", i.e. grey market, refurbished units, and even simply "not certified devices".
LOL!

Will the social media manager be fired or what?

Asha Sharma just said that Copilot for games is no longer in development.
It was the idea that the AI can assist you in games, nearly play for you, guide you through tough moments, and such. Asha kinda confirmed that not a single gamer asked for it or supported it.
But she hired her ex-colleagues from AI department to take certain leading roles in the new Xbox. So, I'm not sure if she's doing a good thing or what.

If you think you're useless, keep in mind that some cephalopods can mimic color pattern of their surroundings in near absolute darkness which is both cool and absolutely damn pointless.

And Ubisoft showcased some of the upcoming Black Flag shots, including parkour. Crazy enough, the videos that contain no harsh details, are still asking for age verification, so I dropped you the most important one...

EVE Online goes indie again. And it's price halved since the acquisition...

Tom's Diner is the song used to calibrate MP3. Not a certain MP3, the whole file format was tuned by Karlheinz Brandenburg to prevent loss of any audible details from the original acapella:

And so are Slay the Spire 2 devs (which made recent reviews mostly negative on Steam). People just discovered her in the titles and they are kinda more confused than offended.

Indie Games are starting to know their audience... 😅

In the meantime, Hakan Abrak from IOI confirmed that 007 game is much cheaper than modern AAA. And he believes that others pour too much money and it only makes the industry worse:

Build a Rocket Boy fired 170 more people and only about 80 employees left in the studio, according to Kotaku... the company still blames espionage and sabotage, not the overall mismanagement.

Remember MindsEye?
As they promised before: here's their DLC about... "sabotage" that failed them and was "caused by a big American company who paid over 1M Euro to UK influencers and media, but also BaRB employees".
The difference: IOI (aka Hitman makers) left the deal and the DLC is no longer a Hitman crossover, since they didn't want to participate in any of that whatever this is...

Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era could reach the #1 among best-selling things on Steam but then Steam Controller showed up and crushed everything...
Wait, is it that good? It's apparently solid for a nostalgia-bait game. And keeps a noticeable CCU (peaked at 60K a few days ago, 47K today).
Despite Valve recently imported 50 tons of game consoles to the US and tons (literally) of game controllers in addition to that, it was still not enough.
Steam Controllers were sold out in 30 minutes in some regions and in 2-3 hours in others.

What saddens me is that the amount of AI-generated shit is now really noticeable and it's mixed with fair and solid games...

Just Cause 2 came out 16 years ago, weights less than 5GB, has over 100 vehicles, hundreds of settlements, 1000KM2 map, and I don't know how many missions.
The game requires a PhysX fix (read top guides on Steam if you wanna play it in 2026). It's still legendary.
