Very healthy and normal industry…

What a sigh of relief

Arkane Lyon is the best studio MS has and it ain’t even close.

Hi, everyone! I'm still working hard on the Katana ZERO DLC. We made it bigger. It's the size of a full sequel, plus a soundtrack of over 30+ new songs. More updates to come. Thanks for your continued support!

I went to NYC and played 4 hours of Stranger Than Heaven. I was ready to write it off completely cuz I disliked previous demos a lot, but RGG made me do a 180. Combat feels way better and the story is interesting, and putting on shows is a ton of fun. My preview templeofgeek.com/preview-4-ho...

The Séance of Blake Manor is the perfect October game. My wife and I have been locked in on solving this mystery. @spookydoorway.com once again delivers!

Ysabel Yates'... I mean Cookie Monster's superb takedown of why GenAI in the workplace sucks.

So instead of solving world hungry, healthcare, etc…. We now have cars that can fall safely from highly-specific, unrealistic scenarios? Got it, cool thanks.

Bravo

Happy 72nd Birthday to Ruby Bridges, who at the age of 6 desegregated the New Orleans public schools. She’s younger than 30 senators and our last two presidents—and only 7 years older than Barack Obama. The past isn’t past.

I know I’m late to the party but DAMN @doublefine.com popped off with Keeper.

Coyote vs Acme was so much fun, everyone in the theater was having a blast!

When the normal people I know hear about GTA 6 and start looking for a console to buy

Tim Curry had a profound influence on my life and the world will forever be less bright

Realized I never redesigned Rocket Knight / Sparkster's rival Axel Gear. Tried merging together of all his mainline appearances since they have a lot of variation between titles. #pixelart #ドット絵

“I asked ChatGPT, I asked Grok” Yeah well I asked a Halo 3 lobby and they all said you’re a dumb bitch

Excited for Control Resonant
