Not that I'm trying to open up that can of worms but Yasuke is an actual historical figure, he served under Oda Nobunaga until the latter's death in 1582. If anything the character you like is the "DEI hire".

NSO Group is happy to sell and customize their wares for any number of clients, hopefully this judgment against them holds up and emboldens others to make them a closely-watched pariah, for their support of authoritarian regimes worldwide.

"We have spent months prettying up the rose garden, however you will be required to step fully in a pile of dog mess on your way in." -Sony with their PSN login requirements, because who wouldn't want more server load and utterly unnecessary potential issues for a purely exclusively single player game that's years old?

Thanks Frans (and Blue) for all your hard work over the years, I followed from Gone Gold way back in the day and this is still my primary news source for PC games all these years later. Keeping this place up has I'm sure been a labor of love, but the dedicated community you've got here shows how much we all value what you've kept humming, and given us a place to discuss our deep love for this hobby, with boisterous sarcasm and genuine delight. I hope it brings you a similar kind of joy and you can keep doing it for many years to come.

Utterly unsurprised to see this was a Fifth Circuit decision, just look at the archives at TechDirt to see how many godawful decisions they've made, and why they're the court of choice for crappy anti-citizen lawsuits over and over again.

5 is...fine, but 3 and 4 really did such a fantastic job of giving you an interesting open world to tear around, that 5's world just being okay was a letdown. The Hot Wheels DLC was pretty meh as well, because you had such a limited range of tunes that were successful and it all played the same. The Rally DLC did better and was more fun to pinball around in, but it felt kinda bite-sized, like I did the content in an afternoon and only come back for some extra points on the weeklies.

Feels pretty pointless to try and show off your DLSS solution without any video and just two screenshots, Intel. Using a game with an incredibly forgiving art style isn't very reassuring, either.

Nova Drift is quite a bit of fun, if "Geometry Wars, but a roguelite" tickles your fancy it's definitely worth the $6.29 they're asking. The builds are wildly different enough to give plenty of replayability despite the straightforward concept, just like any good game in the genre.

Not a word is mentioned of how much processing power is required to compress or decompress media for sending/playback. File sizes are absolutely not the only consideration at play here. This is a nothing burger without those details.
That's exactly the issue, AV1 is great but the demanding encodes have meant a slow rollout as specialized hardware edged in and general purpose tech moved forward (only the latest nV/AMD hardware has encode support). This is a step beyond that but if it's going to take a day to encode without specialized gear, it's wasted.

"Bethesda" and "day one greatness" aren't exactly synonymous, and who wants to play their games without mods? Bleech. I don't think I've interacted with Bethesda's original inventory system in any of their games for more than a few minutes since...Daggerfall? Removing my own appendix as Edward Scissorhands sounds less painful and more straightforward.

I don't think the "cameras" were the problem, I think the "scripts" mutilated by "idiots" who "mostly wanted to sell merchandise" rather than "make something good" or "understand the characters" were the real issue. Like the one from the famous Kevin Smith story about trying to produce a Superman movie and the guy's insistence on forcing a giant spider into the plot.

If you've been waiting for that Freelancer itch that hasn't been properly scratched since 2003, this is the game you've been waiting for. The mechanics and balance have been smoothed out over Early Access, and there's a good variety of weapons, ships, enemies, and abilities to keep mixing things up with. Can't comment on the story update as I haven't played 1.0 yet, but there was already so much game there it's easy to recommend a purchase in this sparsely populated genre.

Yeah, that's what you call a "value proposition" because I'm trading lack of permanent ownership, moddability, and control for a fresh buffet of AAA and indie titles, and for many games that's perfectly fine. If there's a game I care enough to mod or put tons of hours into, I'll buy it outright, and not from Microsoft's hyper-restrictive store. If the deal wasn't enticing Game Pass wouldn't be the rampant success that it is, because it offers a better value to gamers.

This game has solidly improved since release, and in particular the switch to full deck at the start + buyable random cards in the world made the game much more fun and dynamic. Trial of the Worm seems to further that variability, and I especially like the choose-your-corruption option, so I can tailor the difficulty for more rewards rather than the occasionally punishing un-fun combo of cards that makes a level a slog (I'm looking at you, Cost of Avarice). Pet Tallboy is just icing on the cake.
