i feel pretty comfortable concluding that openai is going to be the first domino to fall. im even willing to believe there's a viable enterprise play out there for one or two of these firms. but openai is ngmi

A message from id Software (bsky mirror)

i love this trope in wario-likes

Literally the only actual good thing Xbox has put out lately is the ROG Xbox Ally X and even that's just Asus doing all the heavy lifting

You couldn't make a game w/ the scope + fidelity of the recent dooms w/ a 100 person studio. Literally can't be done. My expectation at this point is that id is a support studio for machine games on wolf 3 until xbox can find someone willing to buy them and their IP catalog.

Did you know it's incredibly easy to hack your ps3? Everyone made jokes about the 3DS being easy but the ps3 is literally installing a custom firmware update via a usb stick like it's a real firmware and then going to a website and you're done.

The ultimate irony here is that fortune cookies have nothing to do with China. They were invented in San Francisco by the son of Japanese immigrants. This is like trying to be racist to Mexicans by stomping on a Crunchwrap supreme

ICE is not about immigration. ICE is not about the southern border. ICE is about normalizing paramilitary force on our streets. It cannot be reformed. It cannot be retrained. ICE must be abolished.

Y'all hear summ? *Clap!* Filler art. Did not want to just post a sketch so I added a bunch of shi- on it to make it look cooler! Feat. Greggy

donkey kong jr being sealed away for another 10,000 years as the servers shut down

I intend to do a full writeup on this soon, but the nihilism that the new generation “simply doesn’t want video games” is totally off the mark. You’re just not following what they want to play.

This is our punishment for spending $100 on a game that's on sale for $20 as we speak

I’m so sorry for everyone at id Software affected by these layoffs. I know what it feels like to leave id while id goes on. It’s a strange and painful thing to step away from a place that holds so much of your work, friendships and history. 1/5

Woah baby

I can't believe I drew this 2 years ago I still fw it

What if instead of a Switch 2 Pro, Nintendo put out a Pro Dock with an external GPU in it, as well as a DisplayPort connector for proper VRR support while docked.

The PS3 Store shutting down means that the OG Crash & Spyro games will be gone for good unless you already have them on your console or can find your old copies from 25 odd years ago. Seriously, what a messed up world we’re in.

Even now there's misinformation floating around, so let me make this clear: Xbox is cutting 3,200 jobs, or 20% of the organization. 1,600 jobs will be eliminated today, and then another 1,600 (including the studio divestments) in the next 12 months. Full story: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

I'm heartbroken to hear about the Microsoft layoffs that have hit id Software. This triology of Doom has been incredible and wouldn't have been possible without these talented people. If you need some incredibly talented folks on your team, I have linked who I can so far below.

One of the main guys who defined the artstyle identity of modern Doom, and former student of Hugo Martin. Man

Gotta love how diehard indie fanatic neolibs will get so performative about accessibility to where they'll literally deem you a nazi for not writing alt text, but when a remake of a game comes along which, ergo, makes a game more accessible, they proceed to cry wolf about "muh artistic intentionios"

right before Revelations dropped too, ffs

There's a new ability in the Evercade version of Banjo-Kazooie. When you collect all Jiggies and Music Notes you unlock the ability 'Breegull Boost' which lets BK fly anywhere. Might be a reference to the prototype that originally allowed BK to do that without pads.

Despite a report this morning, I can confirm that Obsidian is *not* in negotiations to avoid shutting down. Plenty of details are still up in the air surrounding the layoffs (picture will be clear on Monday) but Xbox is keeping Obsidian, according to people familiar with the situation.

My stance on piracy has remained consistent over my entire career: I'd prefer if you paid money for my games, but if that's not going to happen for whatever reason, I'd rather you pirate one of my games vs never playing it.

I for one am glad this game didn't outright promise post launch updates as not to indicate the game is unfinished in content (cough Super Rush cough Crossworlds) But this is awesome to see >:)
