Love your write ups!
A dumpster fire of a situation. 8 years of development, $400 million reported budget, game shut down after 2 weeks and now the studio closed.
AAA gaming is a hot mess right now.
Upgraded to Android 15 with no issues on my 6a, but stuff like this is concerning.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2651280/Marvels_SpiderMan_2/ There’s a notice that mentions the PSN requirement.
Sony is so annoying with their mandatory PSN requirement.
Started Hellblade II during the weekend. Visually it’s the most impressive game I’ve played so far.
What I struggle with is keeping up with the story and all of the runestones and dialogue and everything. I enjoyed Hellblade I but had to go through the plot on Wikipedia after completing the game to understand what I had just played.
Third one’s stated for release next year.
The article undersells the amount that’s been leaked. Taking a look at the X/Twitter account the article linked to, there are beta sprites of gen 3/4/5 Pokemon being shared. Allegedly the source code for Black 2/White 2 is out there as well.
No mention of Qi2. Any reason why we aren’t seeing more adoption of it?
Future Halo Games Moving to Unreal Engine 5 as 343 Industries Rebrands, ‘Multiple Projects’ in Development
Tried the demo for it a while ago. So eerie.
Definitely want to give it a try in the future.

Plan on playing Alan Wake’s American Nightmare?
I played it a few days ago. Been a while since I played AW and I enjoy Remedy’s games so it was worth checking out for me.
I thought it was alright. Aside from the main character, the voice acting is ridiculously goofy.
They were working on iOS and Android ports.

Lackluster game library, busy remastering perfectly good games
Single purpose device
PS5 will be my last ever console. I don’t see the value proposition in consoles anymore with the rise of PC handhelds.
Once a week.
Dark, Twisted and Cruel from Alan Wake II’s soundtrack.
Haven’t played the game yet. Came across the song while listening to Alan Wake’s American Nightmare’s soundtrack.
Geez. Awful use of resources remastering games that already look great.
Surprised to see it 98% off. I thought Steam capped discounts to 90% a few years ago?
Greatly appreciate the followup!
