The game named YOUR MOTHER somehow appeared on people's wishlists and so today they got notifications: on sale — YOUR MOTHER. It's now a best selling new release.

And I'M NOT EVEN SURE what it's supposed to be or what gameplay features to expect... 😅

Maya and 3ds Max developer Autodesk has laid off 1,350 workers – around 9% of the entire workforce – to "accelerate investments" in AI.

Under significant pressure from Blender and Houdini, Autodesk is failing to provide worthy features.

Stores around the world are reporting that RTX 5070 series launch is not going to be smooth. For example, one of the biggest networks in Sweden said, that they got an impressive 0 of units!

Jensen quite literally promised that there will be no 5070 shortage, delayed the release, but in the end the issue is still the same.

It seems, that the only requirement for AMD 9070 launch is to just deliver their cards and enjoy profits.

TPU Review (for example), all video reviews are in the chat!

Lumon Industries from Severance now has its own LinkedIn page. Can we stop for a second and appreciate the irony that imaginary company made that way to represent all horrors of office work looks absolutely normal on LinkedIn?

Split Fiction is getting exceptional reviews. It seems like Usef “Fuck Oscars” Fares made his swansong.

Hazelight Studios improved the formula even compared to It Takes Two — the game is filled with unique and memorable gameplay sections, and each level sets its own goals and tools to achieve them.

With over 1.3m concurrent players on Steam, Capcom just announced that they sold over 8 million copies of Monster Hunter Wilds in the first weekend 😎

Performance issues? Bugs? Missing features compared to previous series entries? Who the hell cares, when it's fun to play!

To celebrate Flow's victory on the Oscars, Latvia decided to step in, so the protagonist now has his own monument in the centre of Riga.

And so are games: something is wrong with the look of the majority of them! When lighting is generic and perfect, it's lifeless, it lacks the artistic intent.
