Brand new EiEi Podcast discussing Sega's seemingly sudden affinity for generative Ai (and why it'll likely doom them) youtu.be/TxMI9YulHvk

I gotta say, genius strategic move by Sega to get a bunch of people into their creator program before announcing AI stuff. They get a mechanism to launder public good will and the creators can defend their role by saying it was before the announcement and feel less pressure to leave.

Physical media. I’m just sayin.

Anti-Prime Day starts…NOW! 🥳 Today through 6/26, enjoy free standard shipping site-wide, all while supporting local, independent bookstores.

All future consoles may cost a bare minimum of $1000 but at least you can ask chatgpt if it's raining outside

the amount of Steam AI disclosures that amount to "please don't be mad I'm just a little guy" drive me up a wall there have been royalty free resources available for everything this entire time; art, backgrounds, icons, sounds and music you didn't look before shaving a tree to make a toothpick

This site uses "AI-collaborators" to regurgitate articles and steal images without permission.

watched a fantastic video essay lately

The thing that AI slop is revealing more than anything else is that the people in charge will sacrifice anything, shred every standard that would previously have been unthinkable to even joke about slacking on, in order to cut actual workers out of the equation

that KH Switch collection pack thing sure has some interesting cover art interesting choice to give Donald a mismatched number of fingers on each hand, and a beak that absorbs into itself

Respect your decision to still play it, Jeff, but IMO this is kinda exactly what I fear execs are hoping for with genAI slop. That people will overlook its use and the consequences of it (artists not paid, planet destroyed) because a game “looks fun.”

"i don't like it but the game looks fun so I'll probably play it" is sooo lame. bruh if the next Sonic game uses AI there's no way in hell I'm buying that. I don't care, if ANYTHING I'll get it used. Nobody said being principled was easy and there are way harder things than not playing a game.

"hey guys, PLEASE help us defend our Ai game, pretty please 😢😭"

genAI is poisoning our water and planet you should hate it all indiscriminately even if it "never touches" the final product

SEGA using Gen AI to "provide better content" for Crazy Taxi, get the fuck out of here

new crazy taxi uses AI btw

I can't believe NinjastarCompass went woke

this is what I picture the CEO of sega muttering to themselves when they pick another genesis era IP out of the pile to revive

SEGA announces a new initiative to release even MORE trailers that just kinda list some old games they made.

I really need to do a full run of this one of these days

Creating an #indie #homebrew for #retrogaming consoles from scratch is no easy feat But how about making said game on 5 #retro consoles with vastly different architecture? That's what @goldenageturbo.bsky.social is doing with their upcoming #indiegame "Noah & the Poohloudies" #PS1 #N64 #Dreamcast

none of the updates were on the Switch 2 cartridge despite this releasing 6 months later, okay

[Nintendo Switch 2 System Update] Version 22.0.0 adds "Handheld Mode Boost". This will make Switch 1 games think that they are in TV mode even when in handheld. Games can run at higher resolutions in TV mode, taking better advantage of the Switch 2's 1080p screen.

Dear SEGA, consider that your Switch 2 releases might sell better if they weren't all game key cards 🙂

At last: A Nintendo lawsuit everyone can be happy about.

this bill is legitimately a three-alarm fire. if they manage to define trans existence as explicit then there is nothing stopping them from genocide. i need every single cis person talking about this, calling their reps, getting out in the streets.

This wins the award for the worst article I've ever found

wishlist 500 caliber contractz <3

The hip new trend that Youtubers follow when they talk about a video game

big hops just crashed and forced me to restart an ENTIRE area from the start after 100%ing it yay!!!!!!! :):):):):):):):):):):):):):)

i stand by this statement every year

so far the only concrete thing ai has done is make the entire tech market worse and every consumer facing tech product less usable or accessable

we need more closed world games. lock that shit up

Ready for Prime 4 now

This is how the 15fps mode works in Ex-Zodiac

New Video!!! Sega has been porting games to random obscure platforms their entire existence, but when it came to support the Nokia N-Gage, they did such a poor job that I felt the need to document the trainwreck. youtu.be/fUuQD0uRWiI?...
