(Also, just from a cynical, financial perspective, an IP like Mass Effect going dormant is an insane fumble on EA’s part)

This game really sounds like adrenaline fueled fun

Star Wars: Galactic Racer is an exercise in inhuman speed that gives me exactly what I want: To go so fast that I'm always inches away from exploding. aftermath.site/star-wars-gala...

Supermarkets in the UK used to freely play high-pitched tones to deter teenagers from loitering near them during the ASBO golden age, it sucked

Another year, another cynical attempt by the private equity backed company ‘Restore’ to try and scare people away from the much loved National Trust (hoping to take over the charitable board and seize control of its assets and direction) @celiarichardson.bsky.social @nationaltrust.org.uk
