If Half-Life 3 gets announced this week I can guarantee it'll be on the day they shove a camera up my arse.

Picked up a Switch 2 pro controller for Prime 4 and man does it feel nice.

I figure Remedy will be at The Keighleys. 2025 is the studio's 30th Anniversary, which they've been celebrating. Control 2 entered full production this year and something Control has been trademarked. The studio is in need of generating positive buzz after Firebreak tanked and losses were reported.

Fortnite is the kind of imaginary fever dream game you make up when you're 10 years old and now as an adult actively experiencing a dystopian capitalistic nightmare every waking second you realise the uncompromising deep seeded evil in otherwise innocent childhood thoughts.

Man, the GPU market sure is dire. I've got a 4080 Super and it rips, but there's no real wiggle room to upgrade even if I wanted to, unless I drop AUD $4,000+ on a 5090. The 5090 has utterly trivial gains over a 4080 Super, and the 50XX Super series is rumoured to be Q3 2026 now.

I think it's only a matter of time before Nvidia announces some kind of AI game partnership with a major publisher/developer. Usage of not just AI for tech related stuff (e.g. DLSS), but AI use in the production pipeline.

Today's pick was from yesterday's marathon. Saved this one to talk about by itself.

Alien: Resurrection (1997)

A favorite midnight movie of mine. Not good, per se, but amazing. Alien-human hybrids, pervy scientists, Ron Pearlman is there. Sigourney Weaver crawls around on the ground.
Movie magic.

My core Stranger Things memory is people going apeshit over Barb and how great Barb is and amazing Barb and stanning Barb and then I watched the first season and she's a total nothing character in like three scenes and then dies. And from that point onwards Stranger Things became my enemy.

There's not much that keeps me going. But of what there is, this fucker continually updating his Witcher 3 texture pack is well and truly up there.

Me preparing myself for however the fuck Metroid Prime 4 turns out.

Beckinsale's deadpan non-sequiturs into unimportant though equally unhinged details, deflecting from resolving the absurdity of the inherent premise, further rattling Kimmel, an American, should tell you all you need to know about a person notorious for their sharp, dry, and distinctly English wit.

Do you think God stays in heaven because he, too, lives in fear of what he's created?
First look at Quentin Tarantino’s ‘Yuki’s Revenge’

• It’s a part of ‘Kill Bill’ that was never filmed

• Uma Thurman returns as The Bride

• Follows Yubari’s sister as she travels to the US to hunt down The Bride

• Animated by Fortnite

• Releasing on November 30

Echoing the asinine Cyberpunk 2077 critiques expressing disappointment that the story didn't focus entirely on toppling the megacorps and Ending Capitalism, and that it also let you Work With Cops. As if the way the story handled both of these things isnt, you know, the entire fucking point.
Someone noted that our game failed to solve capitalism and it reminded me how disappointed I was when the Jodie Foster film Contact didn't explain what happens when we die.

Any one of these massive AAA videogame companies could file suit against the 6-piece Chicken McNobody ringleaders harassing their employees, and that they don't is a choice. I said before of goobergate that the industry enjoys having a bunch of unpaid Pinkertons around too much to ever give it up.
Two months after firing over Charlie Kirk comments, Ghost of Yotei dev blames harassment campaign, not 'bad joke'

I really hope Duskbloods comes to PC or something later. It's fine that it's a collab between Nintendo and FROM, I just dont care about the business more than the practicality and usability. I dont really think any multilayer game benefits from a singular, closed ecosystem.

Ishii is just doing the polite and interesting thing of providing a meaningful answer that echoes her character and taste, instead of the predictable, boring thing of blowing the horn on her own project. "The thing I was in/made" is a nothing answer. Im glad she said otherwise, genuine or not.
It is extremely funny to me that Erika Ishii said this in a year she was the protagonist in a major video game

Half-Life 3 looks fucking SICK
November 19, 2025 at 12:27 AM
Battlefield 6 has standard XP levelling, like every big shooter post Modern Warfare. It also has a season pass, that can only be progressed by completing weekly season pass challenges for season pass tokens. There's now an event pass within the season, with its own set of event token challenges.

Cloudflare seems fucked? And Half-Life 3 hasn't been announced.

We're getting into "muggy Melbourne weather" territory which means my mood is right on track to tank. Humidity is the death of me. I prefer cooler temperature in general, but you can give me a scorching, dry high 30°C's and a sick part of me will enjoy it. Dry heat is escapable. Humidity is not.
