Mahershala Ali says he’s moved on from ‘Blade’ “I have moved on … I'm good … you had me under contract … if they wanted to do the movie, we would've done the movie. So we're not doing the movie … They didn't want to do it, so they should answer that question” (via GQ Magazine)

Every single PlayStation post since announcing the end of physical game discs has either been Community Noted or had one proposed
Xbox's Matthew Ball and Matt Booty offer mixed messaging on exclusive games for the platform. I feel like piecemeal exclusives are just hamstringing some of their devs for no reason. If it's about growth, they need to bring the big guns, or why bother? www.windowscentral.com/gaming/xbox/...
OPINION: Xbox's mixed messaging on exclusive games isn't encouraging
Xbox's C-suite doesn't seem terribly committed to big exclusives for console. Only the heavy hitters will make a difference; otherwise, it'll be pointless.

The resistance against Sony's attack on physical media continues under every Sony/PlayStation post. Love to see it! However, this also hits game announcements. Don't forget to show these hard-working devs some love on other consoles. It's not their fault that Sony hates games.

Have been asked by NBC News for a comment on the "Sony kills ownership/lack of digital customer rights" catastrophe:
For gamers, the fight to ‘save the disc’ is about more than nostalgia
Sony said it will stop releasing new PlayStation games on physical discs in 2028, a move critics say leaves players buying revocable licenses instead of games they truly own.

I always felt like DEI is a more than necessary tool to use in gaming and all studios should be using it to create games. Diversity is lacking, equity is scarce, and inclusion could be more integrated but for some reason replacing characters identities instead of creating new ones seems off to me.
If you could see Humberto Ramos's pencil art for my story in the upcoming AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #1000, your eyes would pop out of your head (in the very best way). Can't wait for everyone to read this one. For now, enjoy Humberto's variant cover!
