Ted Price's announcement to leave Insomniac came as a shock for many employees. It seems Sony was the main reason for his decision. Sony forced Insomniac to create third-party action-adventures over & over again. Ted tried to avoid layoffs, but Sony forced him to.

I was considering Starlink because it's a relatively cheap satellite internet service, but news like this are a red flag 🚩
I hope every Starlink customer - big or small - reconsiders their choice. There are alternatives not run by a russian nazi asset like Elon.

Nvidia's Neural Texture Compression is pretty impressive!
Up to 96% lower VRAM usage 😱
Officially requires RTX 20 series GPUs but it also works with GTX 10 series, AMD Radeon RX 6000 series and Intel Arc A series - NTC potentially becomes a mainstream standard

I support Trump's impeachment!
After all, no one voted for the immigrant Felon Musk to become president, yet here we are.
I'm not even American but such a technocratic power grab is highly dangerous for all democracies around the world.

This photograph is so iconic.
And that's just a few days after neo-nazi Elon Musk gave multiple Führer salutes at Trump's inauguration.

Looks like AMD makes some impressive progress!
This a truly a game changer for upscaling. Not as good as DLSS but seems better than XeSS and a lot better than PSSR.

Tucked away in AMD's CES booth is an 'AI Research Project' that must surely be FSR 4... and it's impressive and very different than Sony's PSSR. Alex and Oliver compare notes! youtu.be/RVQnbJb_vjI

"Final Fantasy VII Rebirth can't be exclusive to a single console anymore"
Square Enix deeply regrets to have signed that Sony exclusivity deal for a trilogy. Part 1 had average sales at best, Part 2 sold even less and Part 3 would be a significant loss if it stayed exclusive.

I wish Quick Resume would finally come to PC...
Quick Resume is by far the best feature of the current console generation. It's amazing being able to continue exactly where you left, even if there's no save spot around.
On PC it might have hardware compatibility issues but I hope it's coming soon!

Players have 72h to finish the game?! 😞
Welp, that's awful. I hate time-limited campaigns. If it was a single mission or two, that's fine, but being forced to finish the entire game within a time limit makes me want to skip this one. 🤷♂️
