  • Death Stranding 2 Has a Clear Path to Another Great PT Easter Egg
    gamerant.com
    While Easter eggs are fairly common in gaming, Hideo Kojima is one of those developers fans can expect plenty of Easter eggs from in just about any game, regardless of its genre, tone, or relevance. The same goes for one of his most recent games, Death Stranding, which included a subtle reference to P.T., a legendary interactive demo intended as a teaser for a new installment in the Silent Hill franchise, Silent Hills. The project was ultimately canceled, but P.T.'s influence can still be felt in Death Stranding, and the same could eventually be said of its sequel, Death Stranding 2: On the Beach.

    www.polygon.com
    Its confirmed: Hollow Knight: Silksong is still a real video game thats in active development, despite recent conspiracy theories. Matthew Griffin, who handles marketing and publishing for Team Cherry, wrote last Friday on X, Yes the game is real, progressing and will release.Griffins comment was a reply to an X user asking for an update after Hollow Knight speedrunner fireb0rn doused a growing conspiracy theory in the games community that a release date announcement was on its way. As Hollow Knight fans are wont to do, they thought they cracked the code on why developer William Pellens alt X account changed its profile picture and teased that something big is coming. It turns out, nothing big was coming after all.Yes the game is real, progressing and will release. <3 Matthew Griffin (@griffinmatta) January 18, 2025Its back to waking up every day and hoping theres news about the hotly-anticipated sequel to the 2017 action game. Ever since Silksong was announced in 2019, its fans have been searching for signs that its coming out. The community is so rabid, its basically a meme at this point. Not a major game announcement goes by without fans desperately hoping that Silksong will miraculously show up. The games subreddit is like watching the GIF of Its Always Sunny in Philadelphias Charlie Day hysterically explaining the patterns he found in a bunch of letters pinned to a wall. The game needs to come out if only to give these people something else to do.Hopefully, it wont be long. The last we heard is the game was planned to release in 2023, but was delayed to 2024. Obviously it didnt make that date either, but at least we know its still on the way. Get ready for another spark of speculative hype in April when well get the first Switch 2 Nintendo Direct presentation. And if thats not fruitful, theres always Summer Games Fest.

  • OpenAI and Softbank team up for a $500 billion AI data center venture
    www.engadget.com
    OpenAI will build and open AI infrastructure worth $500 billion in the United States over the next four years in partnership with SoftBank. The two entities have teamed up to establish a new company called the Stargate Project to build AI data centers for the ChatGPT maker, and according to their announcement, it will "secure American leadership in AI" as well as "create hundreds of thousands of American jobs." SoftBank will finance the project, while OpenAI will be in charge of its operations. Masayoshi Son, the CEO of SoftBank, will serve as its chairman.While OpenAI and SoftBank will serve as the Stargate Project's lead partners, there are several other companies involved in the initiative. In addition to OpenAI, Arm, NVIDIA, Oracle and, of course, Microsoft will be its key initial technology partners. The company's official announcement says OpenAI, NVIDIA and Oracle will work together to "build and operate this computing system," though it didn't expound on what that means.As for Microsoft, the company has posted an announcement about its involvement in the project and said that it will continue its "strategic partnership" with OpenAI. Microsoft will still have the right to use OpenAI IP on its products, and the OpenAI API will still exclusively run on Azure. However, it will no longer be OpenAI's exclusive provider for computing capacity. Whenever OpenAI needs additional capacity as its needs grow, Microsoft will have the "right of first refusal," which means the ChatGPT-maker has to check with it first before working with other parties.The Stargate Project is releasing $100 billion immediately for its first data center buildouts, starting with one in Texas. As TechCrunch notes, it was previously reported that OpenAI was in talks with Oracle to lease a data center in Abilene, Texas that can reach almost a gigawatt of electricity by 2026. It didn't mention any other sites, but it did say that it's "evaluating potential" locations across the country.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/big-tech/openai-and-softbank-team-up-for-a-500-billion-ai-data-center-venture-120018021.html?src=rss
