WithForza Horizon 5, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, DOOM: The Dark Ages, The Outer Worlds 2,and others, Microsoft has a wealth of first-party titles officially headed for PS5. It seems, however, that the company has more announcements to make, with another significant one allegedly coming soon.Specifically, it looks likeSenuas Saga: Hellblade 2is going to release for PS5 soon. Thats as per journalist Jez Corden, who recently claimed that Ninja Theorys action-adventure title will release for the console pretty soon. As per Corden, a PS5 port is a matter of when and not if, and could potentially also be announced at the imminent State of Play presentation scheduled for February 12.Interestingly, leaker prominent NateTheHate also chimed in, corroborating Cordons claims with a tweet that read, Soon very soon.Earlier this month, Corden claimed thatHellblade 2, Age of Mythology: Retold, and Gears of War: Ultimate Editionwere all also in the works for PS5. Of the three, recently, Microsoft officially announcedAge of Mythologyfor Sonys console (alongside Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition).As per reports, Microsoft has several more unannounced first-party titles that its preparing to bring to PS5, including the likes ofFable, Perfect Dark,Halo: The Master Chief Collection, and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024,among others.Hellblade 2 time maybe?

Lost Soul Asidehas been cooking for years at this point, but UltiZero Games action RPG has turned heads every time its re-emerged, which means excitement surrounding it has refused to ebb. Last year, it was announced thatLost Soul Asidewould finally be releasing sometime in 2025, and it seems we might soon be getting more details.In fact, UltiZero Games itself seems to be suggesting that Lost Soul Aside will be present at February 12s State of Play presentation. For starters, the studio retweeted PlayStations tweet announcing the event, following which in a separate tweet, it simply said, The answer is yes. The latter tweet may seem cryptic at first glance, but theres a sizeable contingent of fans whore assuming the tweet is in response to many asking ifLost Soul Asidewill be showcased at the imminent event.Whenever it launches,Lost Soul Asidewill be available on PS5 and PC. Sony announced last year that the game would require a PSN connection on PC, but that was before it recently started to walk those requirements back (in limited capacity at least). WhetherLost Soul Asidewill still launch with that requirement remains to be seen.The answer is yes . Lost Soul Aside (@Lost_Soul_Aside) February 11, 2025

Competitive programming has long served as a benchmark for assessing problem-solving and coding skills. These challenges require advanced computational thinking, efficient algorithms, and precise implementations, making them an excellent testbed for evaluating AI systems. While early AI models like Codex demonstrated strong capabilities in program synthesis, they often relied on extensive sampling and heuristic-based selection, limiting their adaptability. OpenAIs latest research seeks to move beyond these constraints by leveraging reinforcement learning (RL) to enhance AIs ability to reason and solve programming challenges more effectively.OpenAI recently introduced an advanced approach to AI-driven competitive programming, focusing on improving reasoning capabilities through reinforcement learning. The study compares OpenAIs o1 model, a general-purpose large reasoning model (LRM), with o1-ioi, a model fine-tuned specifically for the 2024 International Olympiad in Informatics (IOI). The research further evaluates o3, an advanced model that achieves high performance without relying on hand-engineered inference strategies. Notably, o3 secures a gold medal at the 2024 IOI and achieves a CodeForces rating comparable to top human programmers, demonstrating the effectiveness of reinforcement learning in reasoning-intensive tasks.Technical Details and BenefitsThe core of OpenAIs approach lies in reinforcement learning-based reasoning models, which provide a structured way to navigate complex problems. Unlike earlier methods that depended on brute-force heuristics, these models systematically refine their problem-solving strategies through learned experience.Key aspects of this approach include:Chain-of-thought reasoning: The models generate intermediate steps to break down problems before arriving at a final solution, improving accuracy in complex scenarios.Reinforcement learning refinement: RL is used to optimize decision-making, allowing the model to identify and correct errors dynamically.Autonomous test-time strategies: Unlike previous systems that relied on predefined heuristics, o3 develops its own inference strategies, making it more adaptable.These improvements contribute to greater flexibility in problem-solving, better generalization across different coding tasks, and reduced reliance on human-designed rules. This represents a step forward from models like AlphaCode, which relied on extensive pre-sampling and heuristic filtering.Results and InsightsOpenAIs evaluation provides compelling evidence of these models progress in competitive programming:Gold medal at IOI 2024: The o3 model outperformed prior approaches and achieved a gold medal without requiring hand-tuned inference techniques.CodeForces benchmark: o3 reached a CodeForces rating of 2724, placing it in the 99.8th percentile, surpassing o1-ioi, which used manually designed test-time strategies.Improved self-validation mechanisms: The model exhibited the ability to generate brute-force solutions for self-checking, refining its code submissions automatically.These results suggest that general-purpose reinforcement learning models can outperform domain-specific AI solutions by independently learning and executing effective problem-solving techniques. The transition from o1-ioi to o3 highlights a shift away from human intervention, as the model develops its own optimization strategies during problem-solving.ConclusionOpenAIs work on large reasoning models in competitive programming highlights a shift in how AI systems approach complex problem-solving. By demonstrating that reinforcement learning-based models can match and even exceed the performance of domain-specific techniques, this research suggests broader applications for AI in scientific research, software development, and mathematical reasoning. Moving forward, continued refinement of these models may help bridge the gap between AI-driven reasoning and human cognitive skills, leading to more capable and adaptable AI systems.Check outthePaper.All credit for this research goes to the researchers of this project.

First off, lets be clear: Survivor has had many, many, many remarkable players step foot onto the shows hyper-competitive shores. In some cases, a handful of these contestants have etched a permanent place for themselves as legends in the shows continuity, be it in the form of duplicitous backstabbers like Russell Hantz and Boston Rob Mariano or resourceful, fan-favorite contestants like Cirie Fields and Ozzy Lusth.As many memorable competitors as weve seen on CBSs hit reality series, its worth acknowledging the sheer number of past Survivor players seldom mentioned in the same breath as icons like Parvati Shallow, Tony Vlachos, and Sandra Diaz-Twine. Sadly, many of these castaways found themselves ousted from the game far too soon, leaving fans to marvel at their limited time in the series and their wasted potential within Survivors framework. Oftentimes, these players even seem to possess the core characteristics necessary to make it to the Final Three, leaving their abrupt departure from the competition that much more maddening to watch.From former Olympic swimmers to colorful chicken farmers, from celebrity podcasters to chaotic tire repair mechanics, here are 15 remarkable Survivor contestants who never had a true chance to shine on the show.15. Morgan Ricke (Survivor: Ghost Island)With her radiant smile and winning personality, Morgan Ricke seemed destined to go far in Survivor: Ghost Island. Immediately ingratiating herself with her tribemates on Naviti, Morgans outward friendliness made her a fascinating addition to Survivors usual lineup of competitors, if only for her habit of making friends out of her foremost recurring enemies.She may have been among the first tribe members voted out from Naviti, but Morgans bubbly approachability made her a player we would have loved to see more of in Ghost Island. After all, how on Earth could you not love the hilariously awkward way she refused to volunteer for her tribes puzzle during their first Reward Challenge, leading to her scream No! and literally duck away from her teammates.14. Katrina Radke (Survivor: Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers)In theory, a competitive swimmer who participated in the Olympics seems like the perfect fit for the grueling nature of Survivors competition. Unfortunately, Katrina Radke never seemed to get her due in Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers, with most of her fellow tribe members mystifyingly labeling her a liability because of her slightly older age.Though she excelled at physical challenges and possessed all the hallmark qualities of a tried-and-true Survivor contestant, Katrinas tenure on the show came to a crashing halt at her tribes very first council. Suffering from a lack of firm alliances, this former Olympian could have possibly gone all the way to the merge if her teammates werent so short-sighted, ending Katrinas time on the show with a simmer rather than a bang.13. Billy Garcia (Survivor: Cook Islands)If anyone ever earned our collective sympathies on Survivor, it had to be Cook Islands Billy Garcia. A heavy metal guitarist who failed to connect with his fellow tribe members on Aitutaki, Billys most recognizable moment on the series came when he professed his romantic feelings to fellow castaway Candice Woodcock mid-Tribal Council, leaving everyone (including Jeff Probst himself) speechless.Its hard to say which is worse: Billy unknowingly earning the ire of Ozzy, having his entire tribe throw an Immunity challenge in order to vote him out, or watching him misinterpret Candices remarks as a formal declaration of love. At the end of the day, all we can say about this lovesick one-time contestant is poor Billy.12. Zane Knight (Survivor: Philippines)Say what you will, but at least Zane made his three days in Survivor: Philippines incredibly exciting. Using his winning personality to his advantage, Zane made the bold decision to cement alliances with literally every member of his tribe. If that werent a risky enough strategy, he then went one step further by labeling himself the weak link in his tribe, using this momentary self-sabotage to determine which of his tribe members were plotting against him.Of course, Zanes tactics ultimately proved too unwieldy to be entirely practical, leading to this Virginia tire repairman getting voted out at the very first Tribal Council of Survivor: Philippines. But even then, part of us wonders what utter chaos might have come about if Zane had continued on in the series, spinning all kinds of dizzying plans that not even he seemed to fully understand.Join our mailing listGet the best of Den of Geek delivered right to your inbox!11. Steve Chicken Morris (Survivor: China)Survivor has had many contestants with animated personalities over the years, but theres just something about Chinas Steve Chicken Morris that lingers on in the imagination. Maybe its his thick Southern accent or his career as a chicken farmer. Either way, this older, even-tempered competitor seemed like the kind of guy youd love to watch partake in Survivor shenanigans on a weekly basis.Just when it seemed like Chicken was finally figuring out his role in the perpetually unhappy Zhan Hu, his younger tribe members voted the older castaway out at their first Tribal Council. Watching the votes tally up against Chickens favor, we have no choice but to share in the farmers comically loud exclamation: Dayum!10. Jamie Newton (Survivor: Guatemala)Most famously known for his intense feud with returning player Bobby Jon Drinkard, Jamie Newton had that dangerous combination of both peak physical prowess in challenges and a decisive mindset when it came to alliances and strategies.He may have outlasted his in-game nemesis Bobby Jon, but Jamies fervent paranoia ultimately proved his undoing. Constantly questioning the stability of his alliances, the professional water ski instructor was sent home by his own allies in a dramatic blindside. In spite of this, well be the first to admit the conflicting qualities in Jamies character made him a chaotically fun contestant to watch throughout Guatemala.9. Francesca Hogi (Survivor: Redemption Island)Francesca Hogi had it rough during her time on Survivor. A two-time contestant who appeared in both Redemption Island and Caramoan, she holds the rather unfortunate distinction of being the first castaway eliminated with each of her two seasons on the show.Though theres no question that Francesca has a less than impressive track record in the series, her outspoken nature made her a wonderful addition to Redemption Island. Accurately labeling Russell and Boston Rob as troublemakers to watch out for as the season got underway, Francesca called things like she saw them even if her blunt demeanor did little to impress her already skeptical tribe.8. Elizabeth Olson (Survivor: David vs. Goliath)Easily among the most down-to-earth members of the Goliath tribe, Elizabeths straightforward approach to the game made her something of a rarity in Survivor. Rather than engaging in the usual lies, deceit, and manipulation so often practiced by the shows contestants, Elizabeth chose to utilize honesty in a game where truth often came at a dire cost.Like so many otherwise decent people who participated in Survivor, Elizabeths blunt demeanor wound up proving fatal. Yet even as she became the primary target for her former allies and team members, she tossed out one final ace in the hole by revealing Angelinas dishonesty during her last Tribal Council. Talk about fighting tooth and nail to the very end.7. Marisa Calihan (Survivor: Samoa)You have to give credit where credit is due: Marisa Calihan knew something was off about Russell Hantz from the very beginning, sniffing out the infamously manipulative Survivor contestant during the first few days of Samoa. If only her tribe members on Foa Foa had heeded her warnings, they could have prevented Russell from growing into the deceptive snake in the grass we all know and love.A competent observer and astute people-reader, Marisas ability to decipher her tribe members strategies made her a promising upstart in Survivor: Samoa. In spite of this, she made the fatal mistake of confronting Russell to his face rather than confiding her fears in private. A rookie miscalculation and the first and last one shed make on Samoa, allowing Russell to make her the first of his many victims.6. Jon Lovett (Survivor 47)A hands-on favorite that many predicted would excel in Survivor 47, celebrated podcaster and former presidential speechwriter Jon Lovett instead found himself on the outer edges of the Gata tribe within days of his arrival. His friendly demeanor and approachable attitude may have made him incredibly well-liked by most, but Jons game simply fizzled out before it ever truly got started.While his clear intelligence and interpersonal skills seemed invaluable in Survivors politically strategic landscape, Jon somehow failed to lock in a set alliance with any of his teammates on Gata. Still, you have to admit, few people have taken so much in being the first person voted out of their Survivor season, at least.5. Bobby Jon Drinkard (Survivor: Palau)Who doesnt love a good rivalry, whether talking about the Red Sox versus Yankees, Bird versus Johnson, or Bobby Jon versus Jamie in Survivor: Guatemala. Before going nose to nose with his muscled-up archenemy in the jungles of South America, Bobby Jon enjoyed some success with his first appearance on Survivor, using his peak physical fitness to excel at most challenges.Even with his impressive athleticism, Bobby Jon found himself exiting Palau by a mixture of ill luck and hapless circumstances. Tying with his former tribemate Stephenie at a Tribal Council, the duo competed in a fire-making duel to determine which of the two would remain in the game. Try as he might, Stephenies flames caught first, sending Bobby Jon home with a dissatisfying adieu.4. Morriah Young (Survivor 43)There are no friends in Survivor only rivals and momentary allies that allow you to advance your game. In the cutthroat world of Survivors competition, then, Morriah Young seemed a welcome breath of fresh air. Whereas most contestants simply used their tribe members as a means to an end, Morriah sought to build meaningful connections with her fellow players, demonstrating a keen sense of loyalty rarely seen in Survivors dog-eat-dog atmosphere.Sadly, Morriahs straightforward approach to the game didnt prevent her from getting ousted during Bakas very first Tribal Council. Still, there was something so charming about seeing someone playing the game honestly instead of plotting out ways to stab their allies in the back the first chance they had.3. Anh-Tuan Cao Boi Bui (Survivor: Cook Islands)Self-deprecating, borderline offensive humor aside, Cao Bois colorful personality and inventive strategy made him a contestant truly ahead of his day and age. While most of his fellow tribe members took issue with his endlessly strange behavior, Cao Boi introduced one of the most revolutionary practices ever seen in Survivor history during his brief time on Cook Islands.Hoping to flush out a Hidden Immunity Idol, Cao Boi oversaw an ambitious plan to evenly split his tribes vote a strategy dubbed Plan Voodoo by this eccentric nail salon manager. While the innovative tactic failed to save Cao Boi from elimination, the Split Vote strategy quickly became a recurring plan of action throughout Survivors later seasons, making Cao Boi something of a minor legend in the series history.2. Cliff Robinson (Survivor: Cagayan)As though being an all-star basketball player werent a big enough deal, the late great Cliff Robinson found secondary success as one of the most underrated players ever featured on Survivor. Earning the praise and attention of his tribe mates with his kind disposition and remarkable physical performances in challenges, Cliff made for a powerful ally to have on your side throughout Cagayan.As is so often the case, Cliffs greatest strengths wound up marking him as a legitimate threat in the eyes of his fellow castaways. Realizing he could easily carry the game once he made it past the merge, Tony and Trish made the wise decision to vote out the former NBA power forward before he had a chance to step up his game even further.1. Sara Wilson (Survivor 41)Its amazing how one small mistake such as forgetting to open a bag of puzzle pieces during an Immunity Challenge could cost you your place in the game. But such is the cruel fate that befell the otherwise remarkable Sara Wilson during her appearance in Survivor 41.Forging strong connections with her teammates on Ua, Saras continued success on Survivor seemed almost assured. After her momentary slip-up in a botched Immunity Challenge, however, the professional healthcare consultant found herself the target of her formerly close-knit tribemates. If only she had used her Shot in the Dark instead of listening to Shans lies. Shoulda, woulda, coulda
