Why do Japanese studios suffer fewer layoffs? Because they have smaller teams and don't pay their execs $30m, says one expert

Finished zero mission.

Just Metroid 2 to go now and I’ve done the main games.

I went and worked with Tabletop Titans on this at UKGE. The game is amazing and the people behind it are incredibly passionate.

The minis are stunning and the artist for the game is incredible.

Please give it a look

Actually full on depressing
Ikumi Nakamura trying to slide into Musk's DMs is the most disappointing thing that's happened since the LAST disappointing thing.

Some people don’t like how Ocarina looks? This has never happened in the history of Zelda

Well that's a demo downloading. This looks amazing

Look. I want them to have the stones to shadow drop Ocarina remake, but I would 100% be on board for a Link Between Worlds remaster. Underrated game.
Next week, for the first time ever, Nintendo is hosting two Directs back-to-back - and the first one is dedicated to The Legend of Zelda's 40th anniversary

Ever since FF7 remake I wondered where I had seen this energy before. Finally replaying Onimusha 2 realised

DLSS 5 is the cumulation of the "High fidelity graphics are the best" crowd. The Mario in Unreal crowd.

They have always strived for the sharpest most realistic (ish) looking thing over art direction. They simply can't see the thing that actually makes their games good.

Finished it last night. Great game. Much stronger in the first half than the second, but never below entertaining. Simply felt they had more style and ideas in the first half.

Very much worth a play.

Caped Crusader episode 7 of season 2 has a track that plays consistently that sounds so much like the intro song to Resident Evil Outbreak.

Honestly one of the most underrated pieces of music in the franchise. Such a solemn piece.

Star Wars Zero Company looks fantastic. Shame I’ll never buy an EA game again
August 11, 2026 at 5:53 PM
New name for the Mass Effect series sucks.

Industry is borked, but sadly for the people that work for EA who will be effected, even if this wasn't immediate, it would be coming when sales collapse due to the new owners.
The months-long process of Electronic Art's acquisition finally came to a close late last night. https://bit.ly/4fE0ucf

We still live in a world where Burnout 3 is unavailable on any current platform. 🥲

10/10 game still as good as it was the day it came out
