Ironic, as this was the magazine that referred to Pokémon as a "pestilential Ponzi scheme" in 1999, characterising its creator Satoshi Tajiri as a literal monster "His eyes are bloodshot; dark circles ripple beneath them... His monsters are a child's predelictions." He never gave another interview.

Take-Two essentially cancelling Borderlands 4 on Nintendo Switch 2 is very interesting. The game had severe performance issues on high-end hardware. Not being able to get it to run on a portable PS4 isn’t that surprising.
