When The Talos Principle first launched, it was a pretty out-there sci-fi story about AI. The final game in the series will launch in a radically different world. I spoke to Croteam devs about making sci-fi in a shifting tech landscape that mutates your intent. www.polygon.com/the-talos-pr...

The best edit I’ve seen in weeks, you absolutely have to turn the sound on for this one.

"we're resetting" is such a shameless, reductive, harmful way to say what they are saying

Hi! I'm the music composer and sound designer for DREDGE and I am officially looking for new work !! If you've got a cool game that needs audio of any kind. Please reach out. My DM's are open. Here's a few of the cool games I've done the music and sound design for! 🔊🎵 #gamedev #indiegamedev

People who say they don’t care about physical media have never touched a Wii U disc.

anyway who wants to invest in a disc printing facility with me

corporations do not care about you, to them we are all called "the consumer" and we share one, big grey body that powers a money machine by reacting to different slides someone will make another slide like this and we'll clap and cheer for it all over again

Nearly every mobile game I’ve ever worked on is gone, “sunsetted” rather than made playable on current OSes. Their titles mean nothing to recruiters and hiring managers, let alone players. Even if players remember them fondly, they couldn’t play them anymore if they wanted to.

Saying we should all go back to physical media I think misses the point. I actually *like* buying games and movies digitally for a bunch of reasons. What we need is better consumer protections so the things we do buy digitally are actually owned and companies cant delete/revoke access!

"Here's the PlayStation 6, you can't store all your games on it because memory is expensive, but you also can't re-download them later because we had to delete them."

gonna have to keep my PS5 just to play blu-rays, looks like.

Whether it's at the PlayStation Store or at Target, where you buy a code to enter into the PlayStation Store, we're committed to letting players choose how they want to buy things from the PlayStation Store and only the PlayStation Store

Vinyl made a comeback, boutique Blu-Ray brands are doing well, there are 10,000 memes about filling your house with books, op shops are always busy, Kickstarters for magazines keep hitting targets, Pokopia on a *game key-card* sold a million copies in Japan alone, but sure physical media is dying

Microsoft this week: We're laying off half the industry. Sony: We're ending physical games. Nintendo: have u seen this splatoon weapon we call it the bloblobber

well

Sonic Frontiers on Switch 2 is kinda rough but I'm having fun with it. So it's the quintessential Sonic Frontiers experience, basically.

Games are great fun when you're just messing around with them and not thinking about absolutely anything else even slightly related to them.

we live in extremely precedented times

"discs are too expensive" my guy they used to put a game in the cereal box

my aunt just messaged me with "Al was suggesting we get a Switch 2 before the price hike" and I got about 200 characters into a very hostile reply before I remembered her husband's name is Allan
