Pretty sure the commentator just called Bayer Leverkusen "Bayern Munich" Oh dear

Here we go

Roma 2-0 up on the night and level on aggregate against Leverkusen. 25 minutes for their plot armour to kick in, then...

Interesting first half in Leverkusen where Roma were getting pushed back against the wall and Leverkusen were unleashing shot after shit, and then a penalty gives Roma some hope. Really fun to watch this Leverkusen side, they're just unrelenting and really solid at shutting down counters through the middle.

Yeah, definitely think you're right here. They both have apps - I HAVE to imagine that Nintendo do something the app for the Switch 2 or give NSO an overhaul - and so integrating it there for starters, like how PlayStation allows syncing screenshots and clips from the last 14 days, would be a solid first step. I do wonder if the jump in file size from HD to 4K puts the thought of cost at the forefront, too, even more so than usual. ftfy

Oh, absolutely agree, it's very backwards. It's the same with how PlayStation took it away not too long ago, and likely for the same, kind of understandable reason, but now it's such a pain to share things from that platform. I wonder what the workaround is here? Especially with how important social media is for word of mouth on games these days; I've lost count of the number of times friends will come to me with Game X or Game Y (thankfully not the Pokémon games with those titles ) after seeing them on their feeds and asking if it's worth looking into. There's also just kind of something special about a feed being flooded with Zelda or BG3 or a surprise game like Balatro shortly after it's release, and I do think it's especially important for the indie scene that a platform to share footage of a game is easily accessible. Social media platforms besides Twitter, currently known as X, just don't seem suitable for throwing up clips and screenshots in such a haphazard way, nor are they as simple and reliable to share and embed, I find. Anyways, whatever the solution may be, I wonder if it's part of the general Switch and Switch 2 experience or if it's going to be bundled into NSO (or if they're just going to pull a PlayStation and do sod all)

SONOS have just rolled out one of the worst app updates I've ever been subject to – removing a number of key features and remixing the layout of their app, including removing the alarm function (which I use on a daily basis!) and volume control being a bit of a mess. Just...why?

Elon can get bent. Thanks for this, going to give it a test run later

And another hit to add to the seemingly neverending list: here's Matt Booty saying that Xbox needs more smaller games which give them prestige, just a day after Tango Gameworks shut up shop despite the immense success of a small, prestigious game going by the name of Hi-Fi Rush. Per The Verge: This just in, Tango's response in the form of a GIF: There's no question anymore, the heads of Xbox are certifiable idiots, right? Did they confuse Tango with someone else before signing the paperwork to shut up shop? Confuse Hi-Fi for Halo? What on Earth is happening over there?

La decimoquinta is so on. It's like watching Fergie Time but it doesn't matter who is in charge or who's playin, it's wild. A scattering of superstars but no crazy second bench like the likes of City, just experience and people ready to bleed for the badge and who knows how to manage the game late on. Vazquez's penalty last time out is a perfect example of this. Going to be a lot of pressure on Mbappé now no matter what happens, as if there wouldn't have been anyways. Tuchel did the smart, coaching thing to shut up shop with little time left. But you're against Real, and suddenly needing a goal, and Kane and Sane are off. Feel for him. Good luck to Dortmund. They're going to need it, because as much as I want to see Reus lift it in his final season with them, it's hard to see anyone but Real coming out on top. It's their sixth UCL final in eleven seasons for crying out loud, and they've won all five previous.

OH. MY. WORDDDDDDD. Who could've seen this coming? (me, I saw this coming ) So anyway...Kylian who?

Lol this is going to be a looooooooong 9 minutes for Bayern Very lucky that "fine wine" Joselu looked VERY marginally offside, but they're checking...

And there it is (again, for real this time)

Chalked off, and rightly so Nacho what were you thinking

Lol There it is

Screamer by Davies after Real were seemingly set to run rampant but couldn't stick it in the back of the net Bit over 20 minutes to go. Time for Real to score, I guess.

What a save by Neuer

UK prices are as follows: The digital edition of the game will be £24.99 (per the game's eShop page). The physical Deluxe Set will be £49.99 (per the generic email I just received from the My Nintendo Store asking me to register my interest):

VaatiVidya is release a 5½ - no, that is not a typo: FIVE AND A HALF - hour long lore video for Fires of Rubicon later this week: As someone who LOVED ACVI...GIVE IT TO MEEEEEEEEEEE

Oh I'm super in for this, have heard and read so much about this over the years but haven't ever looked into how to try it out myself! Link to register interest via the UK Store Deluxe Set looks great: But - as is par for the course with Ninty - nowhere near as nice as the Japanese equivalent from my POV, which includes a pair of Famicom Joy-Cons: (obligatory: Pyoro is never wrong)

Well freaking done Dortmund! What a team performance tonight from them, even if fortune clearly favoured them after the number of times PSG hit the woodwork tonight. Mbappe's last chance to bring the Champions League to PSG seemingly slipped through his fingers without having much of a say about it, but I think that was less down to him and much more down to the elite performance Dortmund put in. Would love to see Dortmund win it all this season. So, who's it going to be? A grudge match against their biggest domestic rivals and the team to knock them out at the death in the final at Wembley in 12/13, or a match against one of their former stars playing in the best club to grace the competition? Going to be fun to see how it all plays out looking forward to tomorrow night's match!

Dragon Quest's anniversary at the end of the month though, right? So it won't be too long until he's saying something about it

I just...wow. The crazy part for me is that it's been nearly a decade since this video and the landscape for Xbox hasn't much changed. I'm not sure why any developer at this moment in time would be willing to hand over their studio unless for a quick payday, because odds are increasingly low that that studio makes it particularly long. Don't mind me, just going to update the studio names in the Series X | S thread (someone should keep an eye on Schreier's original post too...)

Game Informer with the reputation scooooooop Sounds like they're going to be riffing off WB's Nemesis System to some extent, though obviously not to far because, well, those pigs patented a mechanic and should go to hell for it. This brings an end to their cover story coverage of the game, which included an interview weighing in at nearly 40 minutes long: I still need to check that one out myself!

Oh my word they've just announced a new controller variant: I know it's probably unfortunate timing but read the room Xbox COME ONNNNNN
