Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.
I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

A "Everyone to the Stadium!" event will start on Dec 24 at 3 am UTC to replace the cancelled holiday event.
The rewards are the same (including the Santa hat), and the game will award you more points per match to compensate for your points being reset to 0.

As the backlash to generative AI in video games continues to pick up steam heading into 2026, it'll be fascinating to see what is considered "made with generative AI." Can a dev team say they're not using AI if they're writing design docs with Copilot or using chatGPT to make schedules and budgets?

ININ is now pricing a presumably 16GB Game Card for +€10. So the delta from a 64GB card is only €5? How little will a 32GB card save … €2?
The delayed intro of smaller cards (due to Macronix’s technical difficulties; 64GB card is made by Rohm) coincides with the rising memory costs—a double whammy.

ININ confirms that the cost of a Game Card is “at least €15” over a Game-Key Card: iningames.com/blogs/news/r...
This explains the observation that several indie physical releases are priced about $20 over the download versions: ninpatentswatch.wordpress.com/2025/11/15/n...

I can confirm that smaller capacity Switch 2 game cards are in production but due to chip shortages it will take time before we see widespread availability
Despite the smaller capacity, these cards will still be expensive due to rising cost of materials
Game-Key Cards are not going away

I think the best example in games is people will fucking drink deep from the well of machine-learned performance enhancement (DLSS, PSSR, FSR, etc) without a second thought that it, too, is ultimately AI-led technology, when push comes to shove.

Last night's biggest surprise was Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic, led by Casey Hudson, who directed KOTOR (and Anthem). Exciting news for lots of people... but Lucasfilm says the studio was founded this year, which means that 2030 is an *optimistic* guess. Maybe it'll be a PlayStation 7 game

PS5 Pro - terrible performance, do not buy
PS5 Base - much better, mostly 60 but sometimes stutters
Switch 2 - default mode is not good, need to check performance mode
Xbox - TBD
Steam - extremely smooth and runs great on lots of hardware - buy it here!

Last night I finished Detective Instinct! Despite playtesting the game multiple times, I'm still left speechless whenever I reach the credits. My opinion is certainly biased, but I think Detective Instinct is a special game made with a lot of heart and love for the genre. I highly recommend it!
