This is a perfect show to never watch but then read the Wikipedia entry for so you can be like “Pennywise met President Eisenhower?? Excuse me?”

‘IT: WELCOME TO DERRY’ has officially been renewed for Season 2.

The new Coco tease for Kingdom Hearts IV last night has left me thinking of my friend Brian "Nabeshin" Jackson, who we sadly lost a few years back. He loved KH and his old twitter account still has the somber, but dark comedy-infused pinned tweet "I died before Kingdom Hearts 4 came out."

Canadian director Ally Pankiw on working on on HBO‘s Harry Potter series: "Absolutely fucking not!" deadline.com/2026/08/ally...

I've hit that sweet spot with coffee this morning where I am unstoppable right now

The premise of this piece only makes sense because people have been boycotting Microsoft games through BDS It says people don't want to line Xbox's pockets then rewrites the reason as layoffs. Using the boycott as your hook but erasing its politics is quite gross www.gamespot.com/articles/ign...

Ignore Your Growing Backlog--It's Time To Play South Of Midnight On Steam

I appreciate everyone’s support, but people who know me know I’m a person of principle, and one of those principles is don’t let the bastards get away with it. I’m comfortable with what I said, and everyone got to see what kind of man is running Saber. This is my official public statement. ❤️

Everything I said was true. Here’s more truth: that statement is remarkably pathetic for the CEO of any company to be making, and combined with the AI use it will do far more damage to Saber’s reputation than it ever could mine. This screed will be many people’s first exposure to the Saber brand.

Alana Haim's character Rachel from 'The Drama' will debut as a roaming character this year at Universal's Halloween Horror Nights in Hollywood.

What happens if a creator streams your game and is opted in? Does Twitch think it has the right to feed a developer's game into its AI slop factory? This has deeper ramifications than it seems on the surface.

Oh my god, I am so excited. Maybe my favourite PS Studios game this gen and I'd given up hope for more.

Ghost of Yōtei Complete Edition launches October 1, including: 🗻 Echoes of Sekigahara story expansion ⚔️ Most Wanted survival mode 🏆 New trophies, weapons, and armor …and more. Full details: play.st/3SasyLp

Hello! Today, I'm launching Hidden Gem. Hidden Gem is a lil publication where I'll write about video games. Expect curated gaming recs, lists, and opinions about the games I'm playing. Hiddengem.player.gg

This is not uncommon for launch in the US. Day 1 buyers are price insensitive and FOMO sensitive. And it's not just the biggest games. Any game with a dedicated fanbase (RPG, Sport, whatever) will generally have a high day 1 premium edition share. Post-launch splits change considerably.

GTA 6 Boss Says More People Are Pre-Ordering the $100 Version of the Game Than the Standard Edition, but Don't Get Your Hopes Up for a Holiday Sale

Grand Theft Auto 6 fans are pre-ordering the $100 Ultimate Edition more than the standard edition of the game.

I'm not the biggest Wolverine guy, so it's not for me, but this is one of their cooler covers. I just like yellow and black together, and the see-through parts are neat.

they will sell covers for PS5 consoles with disc drives

My expectations for this video is that it will damage Adobe enough that I will be paying less for Creative Cloud later this year.

You’re welcome

I used to be confused watching Americans refuse to stick up for themselves or even allow OTHERS to advocate for things like workers rights (because doing so is Woke Commie Shit America Perfect Fuck You), but it clicked when I found out they make you pledge allegiance to the flag every day as a kid.

Seems pretty clear NVIDIA and Xbox were both building to this Not sure the fuck xbox is doing anymore as they run around like a headless chicken but NVIDIA is very much pushing for cloud based subscription models Y’all upset about the sony disc thing? Wait for the real push of “you own nothing”

This bit feels important. Zelnick - "with our optimism about streaming services over the next three years, we think the audience for our console and PC games could be 10X or more the size of the business today.” So, expecting a massive cloud push over next 3 years. Question is from where.

Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick says he’s “not in the least” concerned that a row with a trade union could negatively impact the launch of GTA 6. Plus, he explains why a code-in-a-box is important, and the prospect of a declining console install base www.thegamebusiness.com/p/could-no-p...

I shouldn't be working. I should be home hanging out with him.

I know people wish the Zelda movie was some vibey animated movie, and that’d be dope, but I’m kinda glad they’re doing what they’re doing.

Logging back on properly for the first time in days: - EA officially is officially owned and run by the Saudi government and Jared Kushner - Rockstar is posting trailers exclusively to Netflix for 6 hours - Nintendo gave a nun a gun

Your Netflix rates are constantly going up so they can burn money on nonsense like this: a 6-hour exclusivity window for a gameplay trailer for a game a whole bunch of people already pre-ordered pretty much sight-unseen.

If this is like a gameplay breakdown being put on a paid streaming service, and not a behind the scenes making of thing, I will genuinely be mad. Like what the fuck are we doing?

EA pals, I am so sorry. Watching what that company has done to you all over the years has been heartbreaking. I am already chatting with a few devs and want to extend that offer to everyone: If you want to talk, I am here. Off record, on record, either way 🤍 www.gamespot.com/articles/ea-...

Just to be clear on this article, the position I took isn't "developers need to be more brave" but "funding needs to be more brave". Developers make all the cool stuff, just because they want to - the funding side hits it with market research and fear and growth targets and shareholders.

We need games like Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Balatro, and Peak as a cure for the "fear" in the industry, say experts www.gamesradar.com/games/we-nee...

I liked that Spider-Man movie so much it retroactively made me like the previous MCU Spider-Man movies even more. It made me like the MCU more.
