Oh wow so people ignored this reality to push the narrative that another company's device before it came out was dead now articles for attention and clicks 😱

They were never going to subsidize it because they don't need marketshare and why would they risk losing money on an unproven device 🤷🏿‍♂️

Well, Total Chaos definitely has my cheeks clinched and heart pounding already. Wonderfully creepy atmosphere and killer sound design. Off to a good start!

The October Circana US video game sales chart is available.

A bump over October 24 keeps the year slightly above 2024 in total tracked data.

So far, it looks like EA's investment into #Battlefield is off to a good start.
October 2025 U.S. Video Game Market Highlights Thread from Circana - Battlefield 6, mobile content and Switch 2 hardware were among the drivers of total projected US spending on video game hardware, content and accessories reaching $4.9B in October 2025, growing 3% vs Oct 2024.

While 2026 looks to be great year for games, one due to arrive early in the year is preparing a treat for fans - A New REPLACED Trailer looks to be on the way.

Details:
A New REPLACED Trailer looks to be on the way
2025 has been an incredible year for video games, and 2026 looks to be equally fantastic, with titles like Grand Theft Auto 6, Fable, Halo Campaign Evolved, Wolverine and more coming to gamers on various platforms. One game I'm really looking forward to is something a little smaller, a little more indie in nature - REPLACED. And it looks like the development team at Sad Cat Studios might be readying a new REPLACED trailer for us to enjoy - the only question is - is this for The Game Awards, or for Xbox's upcoming Partner Preview?

WSJ: “.. If the AI market blows up, the blast radius would be wide, hitting not only Wall Street firms, but also pensions, mutual and exchange-traded funds and individual investors, because of how debt is often sliced and resold across the financial landscape.”

Assetto Corsa Rally, somehow, pulled off a miracle:

The Richard Burns Rally community isn't coming out of the woodwork to proclaim ACR is trash, and that you should download these 200 mods just to get RBR somewhat playable.

It's been an interesting 24-hours in Gaming as I read the previews and debate about the new Steam hardware.

Remember: Not everything needs a winner or loser. Choice is always good.

Game where, how and when you like.

Valve: We're pricing it on the same level of an entry level PC.

Gaming Media: Let's ignore that it doesn't play all the popular eSports titles that young people want to play and it's going to be super cheap and kill the brand we all hate.

Me: It will 600 to 800 and a good niche secondary device.

Analysts in the gaming industry say the dumbest things with the most unearned confidence.

The console's hardware is around $500 in parts and that's without the controller. Seems....unlikely that Valve would sell this new console at the base price of a Steam Deck and eat a $100+ loss per unit.

Later this month marks the 20th anniversary of kicking off the HD era with the launch of Xbox 360. Helping build, ship and launch this console was one of ther most magical professional moments of my career. Here are photos of my launch console.

Fun fact: I have NEVER turned this console on.

Everyone watch @sambaschutte.bsky.social in Pluribus on Apple this weekend! The new show by Vince Gilligan (Breaking Bad) starring Rhea Seehorn (Better Call Saul).

Samba was amazing in Our Flag Means Death and I had an awesome time collaborating with him on four characters in The Outer Worlds 2.

Still alive just addicted to the #OuterWorlds2 man I'm loving this game a lot.

Definitely an improvement in a lot of ways over the first game for me but I just got to the second area and I'm taking my time with the game.
