If I'd pitch this pipeline in any studio, founders and investors would kill me on sight
I've tried the demo of Scarlet and it's adorable.

The art is expectedly wobbly but ain't causing me troubles so far. The lighting is nice, the world is somewhat interactive and apparently she's the mum of the two kids β€” so unlike many heroes in such tales, she's mature and generally knows what to do.

It's not like this crap will crash on all of us, right?

Crazy enough, Meta is seemingly leading with up to $420Bn of hidden debt vs. $140Bn written on the balance sheet. Have you ever used Meta AI? It's getting harder and harder to find a real Facebook and Instagram users, I'm sure that AI users are even more scarce. How can it pay off?!

You can now make Steam gifts without Steam accounts and between currencies (with compensation),

+ Wishlists now support categories, search, sharing, and more. Those are technically two different updates but under the same goal.

Oddly enough, Counter Strike 2 just lost anticheat. The new one is not yet available but the game seemingly even stopped giving VAC bans due to the update. It's gonna be the worst time to play the game.

This is the third time this happens in the modern world but usually painted tunnels were at least realistic. This time a woman in Mexico literally crushed into the Looney Tunes illustration

The studio behind a fairly good boomer horror shooter Crisol apparently closed a few months after the release πŸ˜‘

The game was affordable, reception is good, but sales are still mediocre. Sadly, I haven't even heard of this game before.

According to the ex-employee, the studio is long gone but the publisher is still doing some minimal social media support, so a lot of people mistakenly addressed questions to him and his colleagues.

Now guess what game is that

Actually it's MindsEye update which not a single sane person would ever guess, expected, or wanted from this particular game, but okay

The game that is unable to work at 60 FPS on 9800X3D and 5090 definitely more than anything else requires a football mode week after the world cup ended.

πŸ«ͺ My mind collapsed thinking this whole logic through!

XBOX is testing gaming time for ads. A limited library will be available for a number of XBOX Insider program members. 2 minutes of ads can give them up to an hour of gaming.

1. Ads will play before sessions begin.
2. The core game experience is unchanged.
3. This is optional. Players can choose other ways to play at any time.

Sounds odd to me as ad impressions are much less valuable. But here's the catch: they will only allow a very limited number of premium ads for now to boost the revenue.

Microsoft has confirmed that Windows includes a Global Device ID (GDID), a permanent identifier automatically assigned to a PC during installation.

According to Microsoft, the GDID is used for security purposes,The company says it is not used for advertising or tracking users across apps and websites.

Unlike advertising IDs, the GDID cannot be disabled or reset by users, as it is designed to remain tied to the device for its lifetime.
Microsoft publicly acknowledged the identifier only after it appeared in court documents related to an FBI investigation.
