Finally getting excited for a Star Wars movie again. It's been a loooong time.

And honestly the fist time I'm getting excited for The Mandalorian and Grogu movie. I didn't feel it before this trailer.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Complete Edition is coming to Xbox Game Pass. Can't be a coincidence... right? 🤔

It looks like we’re in the cat-genre era of gaming. After Stray and Mewgenics, now we’re getting MeowFactory.

Automate production lines, optimize tight layouts, and squeeze maximum efficiency out of limited space in pursuit of purrr-fection.

Now this is my kind of game. 😸

Crimson Desert will not have microtransactions! 🥳 This is confirmed by Will Powers, Marketing Director for Pearl Abyss.

"There is not a cosmetic cash shop. This is made to be a premium experience that you buy and you enjoy the world and not something for microtransactions."

Battlefield keep making same mistakes... 2 maps in 3 months. The rest? FOMO gimmicks, Limited Time modes and still no real server browser. EA ignoring feedback. Players want depth and permanence. This is how you bleed a franchise... again.

Really good video from jackfrags youtu.be/766TFeVD-iw?...

RIP Hideki Sato.

The Sega Mega Drive was my first console I owned as a little kid. I remember those days playing World of Illusion, Brutal, Kick Off 3 and many more with my friends and brother.

There are a few games you always come back to. Right now, mine is Foxhole. A WWII MMO where players build everything: weapons, munitions, vehicles, and bases.

The enemy pushed into our land, we pushed back, won, and took a group photo... of course 🫡

It’s surprising that Discord still uses outdated, error-prone age verification in the EU, like facial scans or ID copies.

EU already has itsme, linked to bank accounts, enabling secure age checks without IDs or biometric data. Making it more reliable and privacy-respecting.
Discord is rolling out global age verification, and it’s about to change how millions use the platform.

Real IDs, stricter checks, and new rules for under‑18 accounts are coming, and the rollout starts soon.

Full breakdown on what’s changing and why it matters.
