Started, very interesting presentation and story. The interaction mode is quite simple but it's interesting to navigate those environments clearly not made for our body. The statements the game makes and how it does it the real deal of it. And how we piece it through our penguining makes it work.

When I was younger I was all "videogames are the next frontier for art, the age of movie is gone" and when I look at what we do with it... Videogames are still just little marios jumping on screen.

I reassure myself that movies are 150y old and games not even a third of that. But we're basically doing "train at la ciotta station" remakes but in ultra next gen HD, 50 years still after tennis for two.

Où était Macron la veille du 17 octobre ? « dans une loge du concert de Céline Dion avec Hélène Arnault, l’épouse du milliardaire Bernard Arnault ». Ben oui, c'est quand même plus glamour que faire cellule de crise avec Nuñez. #17octobre www.mediapart.fr/journal/poli...

mediapart.frAcculé après le fiasco du 17 octobre, le pouvoir se défausse sur LFIDepuis un mois le pouvoir tente d’étouffer la contestation sociale par le mépris, la répression et le discrédit. Au lendemain d’une mobilisation massive marquée par des scènes de chaos sans précédent…

Nothing quite sums up the abhorrent violence inherent in the state (anywhere, everywhere in the world) than a video of the cops tear gassing an orchestra playing music at the Place de la Republique in France yesterday

the reason “AI will create so much abundance we will have a utopian society” rhetoric falls so flat is that the people building it will never, ever share their bounty unless it is taken from them and we all know it

here's the thing that stands out about Bagayoko's bravery to me: he may not be immediately legible as the mayor to cops. there's nothing stopping him from getting hurt but he's stepping into the breach anyway.

The mayor of Saint-Denis, Bally Bagayoko, literally used himself as a human shield to protect students from police violence

EG fell for it too. :( The Capcom presentation contains a slide with "AI世代のゲームエンジンへ" - the article omits the "へ", for one, but the issue is that while 世代 means 'generation', it's in the 'console generation' sense, not like GenAI. Without へ, translation software gets it totally wrong.

I remember even that's what you learn in design school : An idea is nothing, making it real is where what matters happen.

Maddy Thorson@maddymakesgames.com

one thing you learn from making a lot of things is that the nitty gritty details, the millions of tiny invisible decisions, ARE the art. The "higher level ideas" are not nearly as important or interesting

Sony introduces AI upscaling to base PS5; Marvel's Wolverine and Ghost of Yōtei are first games to implement new tech PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) remains exclusive to the PS5 Pro, which SIE says is the "gold standard" www.gamesindustry.biz/sony-introdu...

same thing with unreal 4, to 5, to 6, and it's the same numbers !

So much of the world's ills can be attributed to the latency between success or failure and it's consequences. The PS5 thrives because of what they were doing on PS4 and the PS6 will fail because of what they are doing now but the latency allows the blame to be obfuscated
