I gave Braid an A+ back in my press days. I spent 100s of hours working on The Witness at PlayStation, fighting for it, getting it into conferences, and being Jon's personal wrangler. I even coined "Metroidbrainia" after it. I will not be buying Order of the Sinking Star, and neither should you.

hey all, just a heads up to my artist peers- this is all AI slop, I would avoid this. It isn't adobe code, it's just vibecoded to emulate their features.

Zara Zakher is the best unsigned woman in wrestling today. She is a name that you need to have on your radar. She was briefly under a WWEID contract but that expired last year. #TJPW #WrestleSky

That's what I forgot to put: a lot of the track design is hard to discern most of the time, so it feels like the autopilot is there to make up for it.

whenever there's a big protest overseas you see a contingent of americans going 'see that's what *we* need' and then when that energy does show it's tut tutted online, demonized on tv, and sprayed with chemical agents on the street. it's language policed and/or police policed down.

However, there's no real entry level path into video games or gaming QA. Nobody goes to college to get trained how to fill out checklist or point out bad text strings

They get people young in college or with zero experience, so it seems nice and easy for this cycle to continue

Horrifying: Arizona Democratic congressional candidate Bernadette Greene-Placentia was raped by a man after he knocked her out. Another man approached her to do the same. “She began swinging her foot at him. ‘Not even worth it,’ she heard the man say as he moved away.”

Congressional candidate is raped while repairing her campaign signs

Embarrassed, she initially didn’t want to report attack. Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office's investigation is ongoing.

Once I didn't get the carrot from Riot, I just started temping at non gaming. The amount of money tech pays for QA compared to gaming is staggering

Yes, the WWE are vile ghouls for MANY reasons, co-opting a video tribute made those close to Pac is on the list as well. But it was great to see them do it anyway.

I always said AI has been used in tech for decades but it was never generative AI. And if media is going to lazily conflate the two, then it's media to ignore, especially gaming media.

Ken Wesley @darkarm66.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Absolute, mealy mouthed, both sides, no context BULLSHIT

Generative AI remains a contentious subject in video games, particularly due to issues around plagiarism and the perceived poor quality of its results. However, many developers are using AI in the creation of their games, in an attempt to lower costs and speed up development.

A roguelite campaign intended to make you get parts to make the game tolerable, a minigame popping up before your vehicle breaks, no way to quit in the middle of a campaign, a shitty boost system... Fuck this game

Never forget that David Ellison's Skydance Media was originally created so he could be an actor. Skydance's first film was 'Flyboys' starring James Franco and... David Ellison. David and his daddy invested $60m to make Flyboys. It grossed $17m Here's a bit of David's acting:

Wild take: if Hollywood puts even 10 percent of the energy they use to attack Zack Snyder into David Ellison, it might survive the super merger

I can honestly that playing the game a little before it's finished installing is absolutely dumb as hell.

there’s one true answer but it’s the correct one five minutes after game of thrones - the last true monoculture show - ended, we all collectively agreed not to talk about it again, and house of the dragon/knight of the seven kingdoms haven’t recaptured a fraction of that cultural presence
