Wait the remaster is out in two days??? totally went under my radar. I hope that this fixes the weird stutters and frame rate issues from the original that all those 360 era telltale games had

my nuclear-grade AI hot take that’s sure to get me cancelled until kingdom come is that refusing to use AI at all is rapidly becoming an extremely privileged lifestyle choice that feels social justice-y while actually being the complete opposite

using the word “privilege” so incorrectly just to excuse any judgement from you using ai is so fucked. i feel like anyone weaponizing terms like that have some secret bigotry their not airing out loud.

I hope Konami does a 3D Castlevania collection because truthfully I have at least got hands on with jusy about every 2D Castlevania but I haven’t even played a 3D one at all. Totally missed the 64 and PS2 games and when it came out I only heard bad things about lords of shadow so I never tried.

Mind you there will be future DLC and Updates as well as online. This will probably take up half or a third of your hard drive whatever you’re playing on. Absolutely insane

Grand Theft Auto VI reported to be 210 GB download

playing Belmonts Curse after beating Onimusha makes me appreciate that Onimusha didn’t have run backs after losing to bosses. Late game bosses in BC do get pretty rough but im pretty exhausted with the tedious runbacks just let me rematch the boss please.

I was just about to get into middle school when I saw an article about this game being in development and with screenshots. I’m now fucking 31.

Beyond Good & Evil 2 reportedly still in development 18 years after being announced, now a "solo-first" adventure www.eurogamer.net/beyond-good-...

A few years ago I lost my PC in a flood so eventually I moved into a new place and my budget was very tight I ended up buying an Xbox Series S for like $275 since it was a cheap option to play newer games and ngl I liked it for a time. Now there are no more cheap budget options.

'the price of the [Xbox] Helix console has internally been projected to cost consumers between $1,200 and $1,800, unless Microsoft decides to subsidize the cost' -Game Pass planning major overhaul (a la carte) -next-gen handheld by 2027 holidays, console 2028 holidays fortune.com/2026/10/20/t...

“Why don’t you just buy a PC” there is nothing to argue against this retort anymore. Consoles are dead and Xbox/ PlayStation killed it. Nintendo will always be a Nintendo but even then $500+ for a switch 2 being your only budget option is pretty insane. Horrible times for hardware

no one over 40 is gonna buy this because you can't play a bluray in it and no one under 40 will buy it because its going to cost $1200

VGC@videogameschronicle.com

PlayStation 6’s memory costs alone exceed $680 per console, it’s claimed, potentially suggesting an unprecedented price tag for the next-gen machine. www.videogameschronicle.com/news/playsta...

If a GTA unlimited budget was the reason Daft Punk came back and not because they truly felt like they wanted to I would feel so defeated.

I’m 5 hours into Belmont’s Curse and Im liking it a lot plus it’s the perfect non explicitly horror Halloween game rn. I am struggling with some of these platform challenges. I don’t know why but either the controls or the movement I haven’t gotten used to yet. Im loving the bosses I fought so far.

Remember when David Benioff and DB Weiss rushed the final seasons of Game of Thrones in time to do their Star Wars movie that was canceled?

Taika Waititi says that his ‘STAR WARS’ film is not happening anytime in the near future. “It’s very iced. I've got about 4 other movies I'm trying to do.” (Source: www.inverse.com/entertainmen...)

This coming from Konami is fucking crazy. Hey Capcom and Sega take fucking notes.

Also just about any venom I had towards Konami has subsided. The pass few years their really turning around and doing good acts in seemingly good faith when it comes to making games again. I just hope more of these companies realize you need creatives to actual do creative work. RIGHT EPIC?

you know I neither hate or love this design. staring at them side by side I’m like yeah that’s her alright but man she just has a charm in the original that I can’t describe that this remake seems to be missing and truthfully that’s how I’m feeling about most of the footage from the remake.

Honestly they should because I don’t want to hear for the next 3-4+ years about a series of Beatles biopics like it’s Marvel. I standby making 4 separate biopics is the stupidest shit ever and they should’ve just made this all one cohesive more interesting biopic.

DiscussingFilm@discussingfilm.net

Sony is considering releasing all 4 ‘BEATLES’ biopics on the same day in April 2028. Another idea being considered is offering a 4-pack of tickets to encourage fans to buy tickets to all 4 films at once. (Source: www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...)

I’m not a Ringo hater because I always thought he was an impressive drummer that is incredibly slept on but seriously I can see a standalone Ringo biopic bombing hard.

I bet you this isn’t even anywhere close to the worst case example of one of these ai companies operating at such a massive net loss. your going to see all these investors never getting their money back but shoveling more money into it because some CEO promises them with “trust me bro”

New: I pulled the Character ai bankruptcy documents. They show: - They were spending $14 million/month on compute alone at a time their revenue was around ~$1 million/month - Currently losing $9 million a month - They admitted they enshittified & that it didnt work www.404media.co/character-ai...

I take “most of us in the room” means their employees that are most likely a majority against this shit but hey us up top don’t give a shit and if we could just make this churn out slop for any meager of profit so be it.

when it comes to “””ai artists””” if it’s not for some lazy monetary value it’s all about chasing dopamine for some sort of congratulatory acceptance or credit from mass amounts of people with fear of even trying to attempt to be creative or rejection of truly expressing themselves. sad way to live.

"why can you not just enjoy AI art?"

As if fortnite wasn’t already slop now it’s actually going to be slop

NEW: Epic Games has delayed its upcoming (not yet announced) Star Wars + Marvel shooter as it pivots to complete AI game development. "No more hand-written code," a director told staff. All art "generated with full AI workflows." Full scoop: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
