Batman: Arkham Origins turns 13 today. Brilliant writing, incredible performances, memorable boss fights, and one of the best portrayals of a young Batman. Bruce and Alfred's relationship gave us some of the best scenes in the series.

Here's some off-screen footage of Rayman Legends Retold running on Switch 2 from this channel It's hard to compare without direct capture, but I'm glad the graphics don't seem downgraded and the framerate looks stable

This was once a forest in Finland of more than 250,000 trees. Google chopped it down illegally to build another one of their AI Monstrosities. The sooner they are all bankrupt the better.

Dudes who used to work at 20th century fox probably still talk about the guy who edited this fucking trailer like he’s a Greek legend or some shit
10 years ago today, the iconic ‘LOGAN’ trailer was released.

A little late to the party, but I'm pleased to report that the Switch 2 ports of the Resident Evil 2, 3, and 4 remakes arrive on the platform on mostly top-form: What a Resident Evil powerhouse Nintendo Switch 2 now is. mirror.co.uk/gaming/resident…

Getting blown up by a Russian drone to protect my beautiful nation of privatised water companies, boarded up shops, cracked paving, and political-media class who think I’m a racist because I oppose a genocide. No thanks mate.

Per Shawn Layden's comments a few years ago.
So @nikitabier's comments on GTA VI really resonated with me... GTA VI is a beautiful monument to the first 50 years of the industry. It is likely Casablanca or Gone With The Wind -- the culmination of a system prior to disruption, much like golden age Hollywood and the rise of television. We are already seeing the dismantling of the old studio system, AI's impacts are going to be dramatic, and the industry is totally reorganizing... But here is this beautiful thing that will likely stand as the last of it's kind and also the high water mark to which the new system will look to meet and exceed. That is why I am optimistic.

Ocarina of Time remake? Pfffft. Fresh out the oven are my thoughts on Digital Eclipse's latest retro collection, the Toy Story Retro Roundup!, which is inevitably a mixed bag but nostalgic nevertheless. mirror.co.uk/gaming/toy-stor…

You'll never be able to generate respect, Tim.
We have a huge pivot underway here at Epic, moving developers around to retool for maximum AI acceleration. The aim isn't to do the same stuff with fewer people, but to enable everyone here to build MORE and BETTER stuff, and to bring the benefits to all teams using Unreal.
