EA's annual Ebitda is around $1.5 billion, which should be enough to service the interest payments. But the publisher has told debt investors that it will cut $700 million in annual costs including $170 million in "organizational efficiencies," per Bloomberg. In other words: mass layoffs

EA officially goes private tonight, meaning: - EA will no longer trade on the NASDAQ for the first time in 36 years - All stockholders of EA (including many employees) will receive $210/share - EA will take on $18 billion (!) in debt, putting it on the hook to pay ~$1.8 billion/year in interest

Had the privilege of being a tester for big walk and I can corroborate that it’s an amazing, special game. A “play together with your friends” game made with tremendous thought and care and authenticity, so well crafted it ruined other co-op games for me. Get a group together, you won’t regret it!

Big Walk comes out TOMORROW, August 4. "But what time??" we hear you ask. Well! Let us tell you: • on Switch 2 and PS5: late morning-ish for your console region* • on PC and Mac: 6am PDT exactly (11pm AEST)

“We spent three years building AI creative tools for mobile game studios, spending over $500 million a year on ads”. Imagine if only half was spent funding real game studios. How many workers could support? How many profitable games could be made? How many cool IPs could be funded for the future?

Ready to COOK this weekend? Try Arcane Eats ~ #12 on @polygon.com’s 20 best Steam Next Fest demos to play! We’ve brought Master Chef problems to a #roguelike #deckbuilder and these customers (and critics!) aren’t going to feed themselves… #indiegames #demo

An article screenshot about a video game called Arcane Eats which features cartoon anime like art style, and a card based cooking mechanic where you serve fantasy characters. The article reads: the rogue like Renaissance continues as arcane. It takes card-based gameplay to a culinary setting. In this charming tavern, you’re the restaurant manager and chef who must serve incoming customers. But unlike other cooking games where they want specific meals, here they will eat anything.

Has anyone in #gameaudio #sounddesign used a good iPhone mic to do SFX recordings? Are they good? When I'm traveling or on the go, I don't carry around a portable recorder because they are bulky. I thought maybe a good iPhone mic could help me record cool sounds I encounter around.
