All this talk lately of next-gen consoles is batshit insane. Switch 2 just came out, so that's not changing any time soon. Xbox is dead, MS don't care about gaming anymore, and I can't take talk of a new one seriously at all. And no one will pay what a PS6 will cost if it comes out any time soon.

It's very bad that we've developed a new dominant breed of debate pervert who spends their entire lifecycle insisting nobody will let them say the things they've said a thousand times and insisting everyone has to have the same debate with them every single time
The #PSBlackout begins tomorrow for one week in protest against Sony ending physical disc production. Many fellow physical collectors are realistic, and it's a protest of principle. Lot of silly takes online - I don't know why you'd be angry about a pro-consumer movement! 🤷♂️
Made a console jail for #PSBlackout I love my PS(s) but Sony's complete disregard of physical media and consumer rights is inexcusable, and will only kneecap the greater gaming industry. Each day I will also share some of my collection to show how physical games are more than just data on a disc
if a machine gained consciousness i would simply give it depression so it couldn't get out of bed
One of the saddest things about the new Spiderman movie using AI concept art is that has anyone involved in the project ever looked at the fan art? There's literally thousands of artists around the world who draw Spidey for the love of the game and you couldn't hire a single one of them?
You should get time off work when you get a kitten. Caternity Leave, if you will.
Just watched a video of a low income mother cook a single chicken thigh for her and her daughter and we really should be rioting.
ceo’s should be required to change their last name to the name of their company so we know who to blame
Whole point of video games is they aren’t real life so your character doesn’t have to do tedious things like getting gas, running errands, scratching an itch, blowing your nose etc
i think my favorite kind of political wonk is the “centrist guy whos job is paying attention to politics but doesn’t understand anything”, easiest gig in the world. collect money from wealthy elite and just write “this just doesn’t make any sense!” articles every week
Amazon buying and destroying rare books to train AI; a bunch of wild AI use in the courts; and Meta's new patent for its AI smart glasses.

It would be the funniest thing in the world if GTA VI is mid and everyone refuses to move on from V, where they have lived for a decade+. I feel like there's a nonzero chance of this happening, too. The way they've taken all their preorders and haven't shown gameplay... what if it's just so boring
I like that liberals still think society has been structured around science since the enlightenment when it's clearly done around capitalism. It's why we're cooking ourselves alive so five dudes can control all the wealth
you really wanna fight ai you gotta get a gun you gotta make a list and you gotta get your hands dirty simple as
Hi, this is the bleakest shit ever.
Some U.S. Army Members Are Being Offered Four Days Off to Play ‘GTA 6’ if They Reenlist for at Least Two Years
Rockstar's highly anticipated video game 'Grand Theft Auto 6' is now serving as a tool for at least one U.S. Army unit to get soldiers to reup their military service commitment.

It's more than gross to be a corpo bootlicker It's fucking embarrassing
I haven't said this in a while so I guess I need to say it again. Gamers! Video game corporations (such as Sony, Nintendo, Rockstar, Microslop, Blizzard etc.) ARE NOT YOUR FRIEND! You don't need to defend them, they have armies of lawyers to do that. Also simping for corps in 2026 is a gross look.
So lemme get this straight, hackers have hacked Rockstar's servers and are leaking content from GTA6... to hurt Take 2 over their digital release? Y'all couldn't hack The credit bureaus and give ppl a new start on their ability to climb out of debt? Ppl have already paid, majority dgaf, so why?
who could have seen this coming. truly none among us
NEW: Teen boys are using smart glasses — mainly Meta's AI Glasses — to film themselves harassing classmates at school, following girls around and "rizzing" them or "ragebaiting" them w/ insults. In several videos we reviewed, girls plead w/ the poster to stop filming. futurism.com/artificial-i...
Black people are not randomly hanging themselves from trees to commit suicide, they're being lynched. Just like Indigenous people in Canada were not walking in the middle of nowhere to freeze themselves to death, cops were taking them on "Starlight tours"
what keeps me going is the belief that eventually it will get so bad that we'll finally burn this place to the ground
cool that i don't get to have a life anymore, to be so fucked that even whatever shitty job i can get doesnt lead to a life anyone would want, it leads to a different prison where its all still shit, i lose my medicaid, have my wages garnished, work my ass off for not enough to change anything 👍

‘No Disc No Buy’: Commenters swarm PlayStation’s Phantom Blade Zero broadcast
Sony held a Phantom Blade Zero State of Play livestream on Monday night, but the presentation went off the rails when viewers took advantage of the broadcaster's still-operational live chat feature. F...
