"The problem is that taken together, none of this feels like strategy, and it certainly doesn't feel like a vision of what Xbox is actually going to be once this reset completes." 🎯

I saw the statement from Kojima Productions today — it doesn’t dispute any of our reporting so I don’t have much to add there. But I will add that (as I said a couple weeks ago), the Physint cancellation came after several months of negotiations between KoPro and Sony. Wasn’t exactly out of nowhere

Still messing around with DLSS Neural Rendering. Next I'm going to try it in an older game that could use a remaster and see how well it works.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth on PC, with DLSS 5 RenoDX mods enabled. With the right settings, it looks way better than the base game. But also, the latest mods help with some of the performance issues.

At SGF I had the chance to sit down with EMPULSE to see how the team is inspired by games like Titanfall. We talked competitive Halo, Titanfall's design, and more. I then chatted with Ian, head of 1047 Games, on some of the details for @seasonedgaming.bsky.social . www.youtube.com/watch?v=DtM-...

Hats off to Gamesir on this G7 Pro 8k. Definitely the best results in polling rate, stick latency, and stick drift I've ever seen. Even ridiculous performance on 2.4Ghz wireless and Bluetooth.

Next up in book cover throwbacks is Legends of a Shattered Age, the 2nd book in m rookie trilogy. Of the 3, this one got a complete top to bottom rewrite. I learned the most from rewriting this book. It's an adrenaline rush with some cool characters I had a lot of fun traveling beside.

Been hooked on Crimson Desert for nearly 100 game hours, and yet I still feel like I barely scratched the surface. I'll probably hit a mental wall and golden path the rest of the game at some point, but the exploration and rewards from that have kept me engaged.

Sad day for me. My role at DICE as Studio Art Director has been eliminated and I’ve been impacted by the layoffs on Battlefield. I’m very proud of our work on BF6, my team at DICE, and my own impact since joining 3 years ago. I learned a ton, and got to work with amazingly talented people 🙏
