Maybe they'll surprise everyone and have that nightmare-fuel horse man mascot from Everybody 1-2 Switch.

I knew this was coming for mobiles but didn't consider its potential impact on the Switcha2.

Rick! I can but dream

Wonder if that means Steve Martin will be back.

Quick Ubisoft, release Just Dance for the GBA after this. They can't be allowed to take your crown!

Sorry yes, the issue with checking these things on the go. In fact, the FTC has filed an appeal.

Gex is back, in trilogy form! Switch, PS4/5, Xbox Series X/S and Steam.

The FTC has agreed for Microsoft to purchase Activision: https://www.theverge.com/2023/7/11/23779039/microsoft-activision-blizzard-ftc-trial-win And the CMA is apparently going to reconsider it's earlier decision:

Given Meta's love of harvesting data (I have an Instagram account so I know it's no different, but don't feel the need to go deeper), the fact your timeline is a mess of people you don't follow and not in chronological order and the fact if you remove your account you remove your Instagram account too I'm just not going to bother. I feel like I need less social media, not more.

Oh I wasn't trying to say Microsoft officially announced it or anything, just amusing they have potentially revealed stuff before Sony wanted to.

I could have warned them

Oh yeah the information itself isn't that shocking and of course the companies have information about the others but it's more the way it came about and the fact if it's true the information will have come from Microsoft instead of Sony. We all know the pain companies feel when information is leaked just before an event, imagine the feeling of your direct competitor do it in a court of law.

A $400 smaller and slimmer PS5 will come out this year according to... Microsoft? Obviously from that court case going on. They also allege the handheld thing will be out later this year for under $300 https://www.ign.com/articles/sony-expected-to-release-a-playstation-5-slim-later-this-year-priced-39999-microsoft-says

@Josh64 this sounds like your kind of thing

Well given he's being sued by a company in multiple countries for not paying the rent yeah I can see him trying to skimp on bills. She's taken over already but he's in charge of tech still because he's obviously the best for that. She's basically in charge of trying to get advertises back and I'm sure "we're limiting how many people can see tweets" is going to help her.

My favourite of all the dinosaurs

I do wonder if new people would find it useful. I felt like they could do with a "I've played Pikmin before" option to show you how Oatchi works and then leave the rest to yourself. Even just being able to skip text but you've got to wait and often the dialogue is split in two so you see the first bit, press a button to see the second bit, there's a pause then you can continue. But yeah the game itself is really fun. There's something so enjoyable about the core loop and once I finally had a little army I had fun running around with them. Not finished the demo but near the end. I think I might end up getting it too. I really enjoyed the original 2 but never got 3.

That and on the 30th they switched off being able to view Twitter without being logged in which then caused embedded tweets to fail but continuously try, thus essentially DDOSing themselves. Business genius.

Played a bit of the demo although getting pretty bored of the constant stop start with the dialog and being unable to make it go faster. I'll get back to it at some point.

I had no idea this was a thing. Cheers for highlighting it.

After being down most of the day it's now back with some changes: I know he says it's temporary but nothing says "successful social media platform" like limiting how much people can look at it per day.
