Today's Day Zero episode is quite special. We unpack the first PlayStation India Hero title Fishbowl! Spoiler alert: it's awesome! Don't miss it releasing later this week. I and Rishi had a blast playing through it! 💜🐟💜

I wrote some stupid, angry jokes about the stupid, angry video game layoffs this week.

ai for translation is such a huge fail because ai understands context as well as xbox leadership understands how to make money

price hike SIX years after launch we truly are in the worst timeline #ps5 #ps5pro

This got cut for length, but one of the reasons Veatch uses a few AI-generated clips (which are all clearly labeled) was to test the claims that generative AI programs like Sora can help filmmakers make more money through better deals with studios. Turns out, it's not that simple

every masterpiece has a cheap copy

the nvidia ceo is so ai-pilled he’s basically hallucinating at this point

Hot take: too many of our artists have just simply lost their spine.

Not just an AI piss filter. An AI piss filter with like three sliders.

Something about the marketing for this game has also been rubbing me the wrong way.

Lying about meeting the PM is one thing, straight up simping divisive shit when your own movie and game were about unity is sad.

ez refund after having ai slop in-game with no disclosure on steam

lmao so much for developer control, it’s an ai piss filter

NVIDIA is the Trump/Musk of videogames. It’s all lies and grift with no accountability - and with total disdain for what’s fair, just and in good taste. I wish Nintendo stop working with them but sadly the world’s most successful game system is powered by this hideous brand.

A couple of handfuls of the world's richest people are literally orchestrating the collapse of the democratic public sphere, globally, and everyone else is just letting them.

DLSS5 is Nvidia’s Xbox One moment.

DLSS5 Gave Us The Most Insane Head

Nvidia astroturfing in progress.

The fake cannot fade. The dead cannot die.

Anybody deal with a deepfake porn made using their face? Looking for help on how to handle this

been less than 2 days since the dlss shit fest and max level hasn't peddled propaganda on behalf of its clients, rip

Between this and the Krafton/Unknown Worlds legal battle, it's a real good time for CEOs to be ignoring absolutely everyone intelligent in the room and just doing whatever. Unfortunately it's the regular folks who'll probably get fired because accountability is a fairytale made up by optimists.

I'm genuinely impressed at how badly Nvidia have fucked up their PR. First claiming that everyone has got it wrong about DLLS5 being Gen-AI an then immediately saying it is. Plus claiming that all the changes were directed by the original game's devs only for the devs to say they were in the dark.

This is proving to be a popular sentiment, so if you want to play a game that was 100% made by human beings, check out Demonschool. (it is an RPG with puzzle-y tactical battles, so make sure you like that kind of thing first) store.steampowered.com/app/1900250/...

As a self-styled connoisseur of dosas (and a Paper Mario stan) I’m here for this day one.

dlss 5 off vs dlss 5 on

lol ai slop coming to enshittify video games now because not being able to afford a gpu wasn’t bad enough

Death Stranding 2 PC code showed up for review. Embargo lifts on March 19 at 2:30pm GMT/8pm IST. #DeathStranding2 #DeathStranding2PC #Steam #PCgaming

And this solves cancer how?

Another day, another review up at the TouchArcade Patreon. Today, it's WiZmans World Re;Try. Is this a "hidden gem" from the hunk of unlocalized Nintendo DS games? Well, I suppose it depends how liberally you apply that term. I didn't dislike it, at least. www.patreon.com/posts/153161...

If you won't do it for SWERY then do it for me. SWERY is a load-bearing pillar of the games industry and my identity. Please support SWERY. SWERY.

HELP US ESCAPE THE CURSE OF MIXED!! We’ve been hammering, sawing, and emotionally spiraling. If you could drop a review, it’d help us through the renovations. Rest assured, the controls were top of our list: no lobsters are piloting mechs anymore 🦞  https://bit.ly/HB_Steam

Swery & his team have gone to incredible lengths and made an already super cool game 150% better. Play it and leave a glowing review.

“So you’ll take money for free?” “Yeah. Money for nothing. Chicks for free.” “What?” “Yeah Dire Straits do you even?” “Fuck you, you aren’t allowed to quote goated bands.” “I regret nothing.”

I've been saying this for a while: Bullying CORPORATIONS is good and works. Bullying a regular person who bought in - even for a moment - to the LARGEST, MOST AGGRESSIVE MARKETING PUSH IN THE HISTORY OF MANKIND is probably going overboard. It sucks. It is likely to suck for some time yet to come.

This is goated AF. More should do the same.

all will rise is handing back Microsoft money & pledging @nogamesforgenocide.com — it’s a difficult thing to do when funding and attention are scarce commodities for indies like us, but we hope more of our fellow devs and indie studios will join us in taking a stand 🔥 www.pcgamer.com/gaming-indus...

I want to introduce you all to something myself and @jacksonwryan.com have been working on. A PRINT MAGAZINE about video games and video game culture. We know things have been bad for games writing recently. We're asking, "do you want to Continue?" www.kickstarter.com/projects/con...

ICYMI: PS5 Pro India Release Date Soon highchaosrun.com/2026/03/09/p... #PS5Pro #India #PS5

Fishbowl is the most anticipated made-in-India PS5 game for me. And it finally has a release date. No pressure. highchaosrun.com/2026/03/06/f... #ps5 #fishbowl #india #madeinindia #gamedev

Cya on the other side folks. #marathonthegame #marathon #pcgaming

Respecting people's time is one of the core things behind building The Arab League of Misfits. It will never be a live service game, nor a predatory grind. Just a good solid fun game you can jump in for 10-15 minutes during your day, without any sense of FOMO.

All these games fail because they treat playtime as a full-time job. Time is the most valuable currency, and players cannot commit to five different battle passes at once. Investors/publishers cannot expect total devotion from a player base, and your dev team is not the reason for this failure.
