Arc Raiders has claimed another Xbox controller. Broke in the same exact way--stuck right bumper. These are pretty old controllers...maybe they had a common defect back then? This is my last Xbox One controller--hopefully new ones fare better when this eventually dies.

Pretty neat idea!
NEW ANNOUNCEMENT! 📢
I'm super proud to share that a new Limited run @playtiles.bsky.social campaign has just started, featuring Inspector Waffles Early Days!!! 🔥

The Playtiles transforms your mobile into a gaming console: I have a lot of fun playing with it and I can only recommend it 😊

I keep forgetting I have The Outer Worlds 2 on my Xbox. Too obsessed with Arc Raiders.

Pretty remarkable that Trump has installed someone on the Saudi dole — Jared Kushner collects millions in fees from the Saudis every year — in a key role for America's most sensitive and consequential foreign policy negotiations (Gaza, Ukraine), and it is largely TREATED AS A NON-STORY

'Trevor McFur in the Crescent Galaxy' released on this day in 1993.

One of the Atari Jaguar's two games available at launch, serving as a decidedly unspectacular showcase for the console's capabilities. A lack of in-game music foretold a consistent trend in the system library.

Absolute psychic damage for me seeing Xbox 360 on the cover of Retro Gamer. I was reviewing new games for the former when I was first writing for the latter.
Retro Gamer 279 celebrates 20 years of the Xbox 360! The magazine also includes a 2026 Mario calendar.

Also inside: Stormbringer, Pipe Mania, Mega Man X, Real Bout Fatal Fury 2, Brian Shea, Terminator games and much more.

Grab it in shops or buy it online: www.magazinesdirect.com/uk/retro-gam...

Rumble in the Subway! Nekketsu Kōha Kunio-kun filtered through the Western arcades and then squeezed into a British home computer - one that manages to push an impressive number of ganger sprite (several more outside the close-up) about at once.

Holy shit, @unity.com Platform Toolkit www.gamedeveloper.com/programming/... This has been like my #1 requested Unity feature for a decade+. So awesome--like 95% of the bugs in my games are always related to dumb platform SDK issues with achievements etc.
Unity unveils toolkit to speed up multi-platform debuts
Unity senior VP of engine product Adam Smith says speeding up dev workflows will produce more games like Peak and Hollow Knight: Silksong.

A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

I hired and worked with Jamal for a year.

CIA concludes Saudi crown prince ordered Jamal Khashoggi’s assassination
Audio recordings, intercepted phone calls and other intelligence link Mohammed bin Salman to killing that Saudis say was conducted by rogue elements.
