Hello I've got a month left on my contract at PCGamesN so I'm actively looking for work. Freelance or full-time, journalism or consultancy, I've got a decade of experience in the industry, five as an editor, and I've consulted for major shareholders of FTSE 500 businesses. www.bensledge.co.uk

And after all that, the Pitt/Cruise AI fight scene appears to have been just digital BG and face replacement on multi-angle green screen reference videos of two real live human stuntees fighting. In other words, like most AI hype — it was a con. www.shokunin.studio/blog/2026/2/...

This is the interview Donald Trump didn’t want you to see. His FCC refused to air my interview with Stephen Colbert. Trump is worried we’re about to flip Texas.

Sorry to get radical but I don’t think it’s my job or yours to embrace, accept, understand - and certainly not to use - the thing being sold to us as AI. I don’t like any part of it, so I won’t. I’m missing out? Good, that’s what I want. You’re worried about me missing out? That’s fuckin weird, man.

Sort of gives away the lie that they're arresting hardened criminals who are drags on society when they're setting up traps to lure in Good Samaritans

Went down a lil Wikipedia rabbit hole and found out that in Greek Myth, these two are siblings. Fun!

On Jan. 14, our parent company Ziff Davis laid off 5 of our members, days after our successful CES showing as the CNET Group. This is the third round of layoffs since Ziff acquired CNET in 2024. We’re sick of our members being on the chopping block. Read our full statement below:

Sony deciding to NOT make Covers compatible with both the Slim and Pro models of PlayStation 5s is one of the most baffling business decisions I've ever come across in my lifetime.

The “Hire a Greek person to play a Greek person” challenge remains impossible, it seems Bro literally played Thor

All that good will, just...

I liked the Stranger Things finale

Listening to my favorite tech podcasts has become really disappointing lately. Hearing folks I respect talk about AI in any way that doesn’t constantly point to its economic, ecological, copyright, and privacy concerns is incredibly frustrating. This technology is not worth its cost, guys.

Stop cutting Thor's hair challenge, level: Impossible

Ok, Stranger Things 5 Vol. 2 is a bit messy, but like the rest of the series, the characters and character moments are what elevate it And BOY did the character moments get me. I cried like 5 times!

The full spiked 60 Minutes CECOT package, clean & subtitled. 1/5

None of these mfs look even the slightest bit Greek, which feels weird!

🚨 The DOJ appears to have redacted Donald Trump’s name from the allegations made in this exhibit in the Epstein files. Trump’s name was in the original release. Now, it’s blacked out. See for yourself.

“AI is here whether we like it or not” NO. That is not true. Rage rage rage against the machine. It can stop. We can stop it.

READ ABSOLUTE WONDER WOMAN IT'S THE BEST COMIC BOOK OF THE YEAR

New Illustration: "We Beat 'Em Before..." Taken from a British WW2 poster, the original features a WW1 German soldier at the top. I just swapped it for the Nazi soldier it had at the bottom.

I just… HE KNEW. OF COURSE HE KNEW. THATS WHY ITS A SACRIFICE. THATS WHAT MAKES IT HEROIC. WHAT MAKES HIM THE LEGEND THE REBELLION NEEDED HIM TO BE. HE HAD THE SACRED JEDI TEXTS. YODA LITERALLY, PHYSICALLY HANDED HIM THAT KNOWLEDGE. THAT DETAIL WAS PROBABLY IN THERE. PROBABLY HAD A WHOLE CHAPTER.

This is maybe the most amount of work I’ve ever had to put into making an IGN graphic. Turned out p nice, I think

Pragmata demo is interesting!! I really like the gunplay, hacking, vibes, and the father/daughter dynamic. Locomotion feels SUPER awkward, tho. It's slow even when running. Feels like something that won't see much change before release, but the rest of the game could make up for it! I'm pumped!

we can kill them all if we just work together and ✨believe💫

Oops

This shit right here

Video games will save us, if we let them
