• PlayStation vient d'annoncer le FlexStrike, son premier stick arcade sans fil pour PS5 et PC, prévu pour 2026. Franchement, qui a besoin d'un autre accessoire coûteux qui s'ajoute à la liste déjà interminable de gadgets inutiles ? Sony semble déterminé à nous faire dépenser encore plus d'argent pour des produits qui ne révolutionneront rien. Le Project Defiant, comme il était précédemment connu, n'est qu'une tentative désespérée de combler un vide dans l'innovation. Au lieu de se concentrer sur des jeux de qualité, ils nous balancent des sticks arcade sans fil ! On mérite mieux que ça, PlayStation. C'est du mépris pour les joueurs

  • Capcom vuelve a hacer lo mismo. Ahora está remakeando Resident Evil 2, otra vez. Se llama Resident Evil 2: Dead Shot, y es una especie de versión arcade del remake de 2019. No sé, parece que a Capcom le gusta repetir lo mismo una y otra vez. ¿Quién sabe? Tal vez sea interesante, o tal vez no. En fin, ahí está la noticia.

  • In a world filled with tiny arcade machines, I find myself feeling more alone than ever. Each time I try to relive the joy of those pixelated games, my hands ache and my vision blurs. It’s as if these mini marvels are a cruel reminder of the nostalgia we can’t return to. I’m left grappling with the weight of disappointment, longing for connection in a place that feels so empty. The laughter of friends is a distant echo, drowned out by the clatter of buttons and the flicker of screens. The more I reach out, the further I fall into this abyss of loneliness.

  • Ah, the year 2025, where we find Pac-Man diving headfirst into the world of metroidvania! Because, you know, nothing screams "innovative gaming" quite like turning a classic arcade gobbler into an exploration-heavy labyrinth. I guess when you run out of ghosts to chase, you might as well start exploring shadowy mazes! Who needs fresh ideas when you can just pump nostalgia into a blender and call it a new recipe? Perhaps the next step is Pac-Man taking on the role of a heroic knight in shining armor, because why not? After all, redefining classics is the new black!

  • In a world where colors collide and dreams race at high speed, I find myself drifting in shadows, alone. The mini car racing game, with its vibrant prints, showcases the beauty of creation, yet I feel like a ghost in an empty arcade. The joy of 3D printing that brings parts to life stands in stark contrast to the emptiness in my heart. Each vibrant hue reminds me of moments lost, of laughter that echoed but now fades into silence. The tracks may be dazzling, but my journey feels painfully solitary, like a racer without a finish line.

  • ¡Es increíble cómo la industria de los videojuegos ha caído tan bajo! Hablemos de "Stellar Blade", un juego que, a primera vista, parece una mezcla de acción arcade clásica y un Soulslike moderno, pero que en realidad es un desastre absoluto que nos muestra lo peor de la cultura gamer actual. ¿De verdad necesitamos otro juego donde el protagonismo lo tenga una oficial de defensa con "grandes tetas y un trasero aún más grande"? ¿Qué clase de mensaje le estamos enviando a nuestra sociedad al aplaudir esta representación superficial y sexualizada de las mujeres?

    Es evidente que los desarrolladores de "Stellar Blade" han decidido priorizar el sex appeal sobre el contenido sustancial. La idea de que una mujer con curvas exageradas sea la heroína de la historia, salvando un mundo post-apocalíptico de aliens, es simplemente ridícula. No solo perpetúa estereotipos dañinos, sino que también desvirtúa lo que debería ser un enfoque realista y poderoso de la narrativa de videojuegos. ¿Es esta la mejor representación que podemos ofrecer? ¿De verdad?

    Además, los críticos han señalado que la jugabilidad es aburrida y repetitiva, lo cual es otra gran decepción. La promesa de un combate “divertido” en un entorno de ciencia ficción se queda en nada. Las mecánicas son torpes y, a menudo, frustrantes, haciendo que el jugador se pregunte por qué decidió invertir su tiempo y dinero en un producto tan mediocre. ¿Es esta la innovación que esperábamos? ¿La "diversión" que se nos prometió? ¡Por favor!

    Y no hablemos de las reseñas en Steam. Es triste ver cómo algunos usuarios se dejan llevar por la apariencia y no ven más allá de la superficie. ¿Qué pasa con la crítica constructiva? ¿Dónde quedaron los estándares? Este tipo de productos solo alimenta una cultura de aceptación de lo mediocre, donde lo superficial es lo que cuenta. Si seguimos así, ¿qué futuro le espera a la industria de los videojuegos?

    La frustración crece cuando vemos que los jugadores verdaderos, aquellos que buscan experiencias significativas, son ignorados en favor de un espectáculo que solo busca atraer a un público que prefiere lo fácil y lo llamativo. "Stellar Blade" es un recordatorio doloroso de que necesitamos elevar nuestras expectativas y exigir más de los desarrolladores.

    Así que, la próxima vez que pienses en gastar tu dinero en un juego, pregúntate: ¿realmente quieres contribuir a esta cultura de la superficialidad? ¡Es hora de que nos levantemos y digamos basta! No más juegos que solo buscan lo fácil y lo obvio; necesitamos calidad, profundidad y respeto en la narrativa y diseño de personajes. ¡Despertemos!

    Stellar Blade, As Told By Steam Reviews
    Stellar Blade is a mashup of classic arcade action and modern Soulslike about a defense force officer with big tits and an even bigger ass saving the post-apocalyptic ruins of Earth from the aliens who destroyed it. Paradise lost? Not for the gooners

  • Je suis tellement fatigué de voir comment le monde du jeu vidéo continue d'ignorer des classiques comme Buggy Boy ! L'article intitulé "Mario Kart World Is Redemption For One Of The 1980s' Most Underrated Racing Games" n'est qu'une autre tentative de réhabilitation d'un jeu qui mérite bien plus que d'être relégué au rang de simple souvenir. Buggy Boy, ou Speed Buggy comme on l'appelle aux États-Unis, est un bijou d'innovation qui a redéfini le genre de la course. Mais pourquoi, diable, avons-nous laissé ce chef-d'œuvre tomber dans l'oubli ?!

    D'abord, parlons de l'érudition des développeurs et des critiques qui semblent ignorer la richesse de l'expérience de jeu que Buggy Boy offrait. Ce n'est pas simplement un jeu de course ; c'est une déclaration audacieuse sur la liberté et l'aventure. Alors que les jeux modernes comme Mario Kart se contentent de nous asséner des graphismes colorés et des power-ups, Buggy Boy a osé explorer des pistes variées et des environnements immersifs qui nous transportent dans un monde à part entière. Que diable s'est-il passé dans l'esprit des concepteurs de jeux qui ont décidé de ramener à la vie des jeux d'arcade capitalisant sur la nostalgie sans donner à des classiques comme Buggy Boy l'attention qu'ils méritent ?

    De plus, la communauté des joueurs a une part de responsabilité dans cette négligence ! Comment pouvez-vous passer des heures sur des jeux en ligne fades alors qu'un joyau comme Buggy Boy attend impatiemment d'être redécouvert ? La culture du jeu a été gangrenée par des franchises qui privilégient le profit rapide au détriment de l'innovation et de la créativité. On dirait que les joueurs ont perdu de vue ce que signifie vraiment apprécier un jeu pour son gameplay et son originalité.

    Les développeurs modernes devraient se lever et rendre hommage à ce jeu qui a, pour la première fois, intégré des éléments de personnalisation et de compétition saine. Buggy Boy a ouvert la voie à des expériences de jeu plus riches et variées, mais maintenant, il est temps de prendre position et de demander justice pour ce classique. Assez de faire passer Mario Kart pour le saint graal des jeux de course ! C'est le moment de redonner à Buggy Boy le respect qu'il mérite !

    Si nous ne commençons pas à célébrer et à réévaluer ces joyaux oubliés, nous risquons de perdre une partie essentielle de l'histoire du jeu vidéo. Buggy Boy n'est pas juste un jeu ; c'est une époque, une mémoire, un héritage. Réveillons-nous et exigeons que l'industrie du jeu reconnaisse ses véritables trésors au lieu de se complaire dans la médiocrité !

    Hi, friends! Welcome to Installer No. 87, your guide to the best and Verge-iest stuff in the world.This week, I’ve been reading about Sabrina Carpenter and Khaby Lame and intimacy coordinators, finally making a dent in Barbarians at the Gate, watching all the Ben Schwartz and Friends I can find on YouTube, planning my days with the new Finalist beta, recklessly installing all the Apple developer betas after WWDC, thoroughly enjoying Dakota Johnson’s current press tour, and trying to clear all my inboxes before I go on parental leave. It’s… going.I also have for you a much-awaited new browser, a surprise update to a great photo editor, a neat trailer for a meh-looking movie, a classic Steve Jobs speech, and much more. Slightly shorter issue this week, sorry; there’s just a lot going on, but I didn’t want to leave y’all hanging entirely. Oh, and: we’ll be off next week, for Juneteenth, vacation, and general summer chaos reasons. We’ll be back in full force after that, though! Let’s get into it.The DropDia. I know there are a lot of Arc fans here in the Installerverse, and I know you, like me, will have a lot of feelings about the company’s new and extremely AI-focused browser. Personally, I don’t see leaving Arc anytime soon, but there are some really fascinating ideasin Dia already. Snapseed 3.0. I completely forgot Snapseed even existed, and now here’s a really nice update with a bunch of new editing tools and a nice new redesign! As straightforward photo editors go, this is one of the better ones. The new version is only on iOS right now, but I assume it’s heading to Android shortly.“I Tried To Make Something In America.” I was first turned onto the story of the Smarter Scrubber by a great Search Engine episode, and this is a great companion to the story about what it really takes to bring manufacturing back to the US. And why it’s hard to justify.. That link, and the trailer, will only do anything for you if you have a newer iPhone. But even if you don’t care about the movie, the trailer — which actually buzzes in sync with the car’s rumbles and revs — is just really, really cool. Android 16. You can’t get the cool, colorful new look just yet or the desktop mode I am extremely excited about — there’s a lot of good stuff in Android 16 but most of it is coming later. Still, Live Updates look good, and there’s some helpful accessibility stuff, as well.The Infinite Machine Olto. I am such a sucker for any kind of futuristic-looking electric scooter, and this one really hits the sweet spot. Part moped, part e-bike, all Blade Runner vibes. If it wasn’t then I would’ve probably ordered one already.The Fujifilm X-E5. I kept wondering why Fujifilm didn’t just make, like, a hundred different great-looking cameras at every imaginable price because everyone wants a camera this cool. Well, here we are! It’s a spin on the X100VI but with interchangeable lenses and a few power-user features. All my photographer friends are going to want this.Call Her Alex. I confess I’m no Call Her Daddy diehard, but I found this two-part doc on Alex Cooper really interesting. Cooper’s story is all about understanding people, the internet, and what it means to feel connected now. It’s all very low-stakes and somehow also existential? It’s only two parts, you should watch it.“Steve Jobs - 2005 Stanford Commencement Address.” For the 20th anniversary of Jobs’ famousspeech, the Steve Jobs Archive put together a big package of stories, notes, and other materials around the speech. Plus, a newly high-def version of the video. This one’s always worth the 15 minutes.Dune: Awakening. Dune has ascended to the rare territory of “I will check out anything from this franchise, ever, no questions asked.” This game is big on open-world survival and ornithopters, too, so it’s even more my kind of thing. And it’s apparently punishingly difficult in spots.CrowdsourcedHere’s what the Installer community is into this week. I want to know what you’re into right now as well! Email installer@theverge.com or message me on Signal — @davidpierce.11 — with your recommendations for anything and everything, and we’ll feature some of our favorites here every week. For even more great recommendations, check out the replies to this post on Threads and this post on Bluesky.“I had tried the paper planner in the leather Paper Republic journal but since have moved onto the Remarkable Paper Pro color e-ink device which takes everything you like about paper but makes it editable and color coded. Combine this with a Remarkable planner in PDF format off of Etsy and you are golden.” — Jason“I started reading a manga series from content creator Cory Kenshin called Monsters We Make. So far, I love it. Already preordered Vol. 2.” — Rob“I recently went down the third party controller rabbit hole after my trusty adapted Xbox One controller finally kicked the bucket, and I wanted something I could use across my PC, phone, handheld, Switch, etc. I’ve been playing with the GameSir Cyclone 2 for a few weeks, and it feels really deluxe. The thumbsticks are impossibly smooth and accurate thanks to its TMR joysticks. The face buttons took a second for my brain to adjust to; the short travel distance initially registered as mushy, but once I stopped trying to pound the buttons like I was at the arcade, I found the subtle mechanical click super satisfying.” — Sam“The Apple TV Plus miniseries Long Way Home. It’s Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman’s fourth Long Way series. This time they are touring some European countries on vintage bikes that they fixed, and it’s such a light-hearted show from two really down to earth humans. Connecting with other people in different cultures and seeing their journey is such a treat!” — Esmael“Podcast recommendation: Devil and the Deep Blue Sea by Christianity Today. A deep dive into the Satanic Panic of the 80’s and 90’s.” — Drew“Splatoon 3and the new How to Train Your Dragon.” — Aaron“I can’t put Mario Kart World down. When I get tired of the intense Knockout Tour mode I go to Free Roam and try to knock out P-Switch challenges, some of which are really tough! I’m obsessed.” — Dave“Fable, a cool app for finding books with virtual book clubs. It’s the closest to a more cozy online bookstore with more honest reviews. I just wish you could click on the author’s name to see their other books.” — Astrid“This is the Summer Games Fest weekand there are a TON of game demos to try out on Steam. One that has caught my attention / play time the most is Wildgate. It’s a team based spaceship shooter where ship crews battle and try to escape with a powerful artifact.” — Sean“Battlefront 2 is back for some reason. Still looks great.” — IanSigning offI have long been fascinated by weather forecasting. I recommend Andrew Blum’s book, The Weather Machine, to people all the time, as a way to understand both how we learned to predict the weather and why it’s a literally culture-changing thing to be able to do so. And if you want to make yourself so, so angry, there’s a whole chunk of Michael Lewis’s book, The Fifth Risk, about how a bunch of companies managed to basically privatize forecasts… based on government data. The weather is a huge business, an extremely powerful political force, and even more important to our way of life than we realize. And we’re really good at predicting the weather!I’ve also been hearing for years that weather forecasting is a perfect use for AI. It’s all about vast quantities of historical data, tiny fluctuations in readings, and finding patterns that often don’t want to be found. So, of course, as soon as I read my colleague Justine Calma’s story about a new Google project called Weather Lab, I spent the next hour poking through the data to see how well DeepMind managed to predict and track recent storms. It’s deeply wonky stuff, but it’s cool to see Big Tech trying to figure out Mother Nature — and almost getting it right. Almost.See you next week!See More:

It’s all about vast quantities of historical data, tiny fluctuations in readings, and finding patterns that often don’t want to be found. So, of course, as soon as I read my colleague Justine Calma’s story about a new Google project called Weather Lab, I spent the next hour poking through the data to see how well DeepMind managed to predict and track recent storms.

    Hi, friends! Welcome to Installer No. 87, your guide to the best and Verge-iest stuff in the world. (If you’re new here, welcome, happy It’s Officially Too Hot Now Week, and also you can read all the old editions at the Installer homepage.) This week, I’ve been reading about Sabrina Carpenter and Khaby Lame and intimacy coordinators, finally making a dent in Barbarians at the Gate, watching all the Ben Schwartz and Friends I can find on YouTube, planning my days with the new Finalist beta, recklessly installing all the Apple developer betas after WWDC, thoroughly enjoying Dakota Johnson’s current press tour, and trying to clear all my inboxes before I go on parental leave. It’s… going.I also have for you a much-awaited new browser, a surprise update to a great photo editor, a neat trailer for a meh-looking movie, a classic Steve Jobs speech, and much more. Slightly shorter issue this week, sorry; there’s just a lot going on, but I didn’t want to leave y’all hanging entirely. Oh, and: we’ll be off next week, for Juneteenth, vacation, and general summer chaos reasons. We’ll be back in full force after that, though! Let’s get into it.(As always, the best part of Installer is your ideas and tips. What do you want to know more about? What awesome tricks do you know that everyone else should? What app should everyone be using? Tell me everything: installer@theverge.com. And if you know someone else who might enjoy Installer, forward it to them and tell them to subscribe here.)The DropDia. I know there are a lot of Arc fans here in the Installerverse, and I know you, like me, will have a lot of feelings about the company’s new and extremely AI-focused browser. Personally, I don’t see leaving Arc anytime soon, but there are some really fascinating ideas (and nice design touches) in Dia already. Snapseed 3.0. I completely forgot Snapseed even existed, and now here’s a really nice update with a bunch of new editing tools and a nice new redesign! As straightforward photo editors go, this is one of the better ones. The new version is only on iOS right now, but I assume it’s heading to Android shortly.“I Tried To Make Something In America.” I was first turned onto the story of the Smarter Scrubber by a great Search Engine episode, and this is a great companion to the story about what it really takes to bring manufacturing back to the US. And why it’s hard to justify.. That link, and the trailer, will only do anything for you if you have a newer iPhone. But even if you don’t care about the movie, the trailer — which actually buzzes in sync with the car’s rumbles and revs — is just really, really cool. Android 16. You can’t get the cool, colorful new look just yet or the desktop mode I am extremely excited about — there’s a lot of good stuff in Android 16 but most of it is coming later. Still, Live Updates look good, and there’s some helpful accessibility stuff, as well.The Infinite Machine Olto. I am such a sucker for any kind of futuristic-looking electric scooter, and this one really hits the sweet spot. Part moped, part e-bike, all Blade Runner vibes. If it wasn’t $3,500, then I would’ve probably ordered one already.The Fujifilm X-E5. I kept wondering why Fujifilm didn’t just make, like, a hundred different great-looking cameras at every imaginable price because everyone wants a camera this cool. Well, here we are! It’s a spin on the X100VI but with interchangeable lenses and a few power-user features. All my photographer friends are going to want this.Call Her Alex. I confess I’m no Call Her Daddy diehard, but I found this two-part doc on Alex Cooper really interesting. Cooper’s story is all about understanding people, the internet, and what it means to feel connected now. It’s all very low-stakes and somehow also existential? It’s only two parts, you should watch it.“Steve Jobs - 2005 Stanford Commencement Address.” For the 20th anniversary of Jobs’ famous (and genuinely fabulous) speech, the Steve Jobs Archive put together a big package of stories, notes, and other materials around the speech. Plus, a newly high-def version of the video. This one’s always worth the 15 minutes.Dune: Awakening. Dune has ascended to the rare territory of “I will check out anything from this franchise, ever, no questions asked.” This game is big on open-world survival and ornithopters, too, so it’s even more my kind of thing. And it’s apparently punishingly difficult in spots.CrowdsourcedHere’s what the Installer community is into this week. I want to know what you’re into right now as well!
