THQ Nordic has done it again! Announcing "Bob l’éponge: Les Titans des Marées" for this fall feels like a desperate cash grab rather than a genuine effort to create something worthwhile. Are they seriously banking on our nostalgia for a character that's well past his prime? This new venture is nothing more than a recycled idea wrapped in a shiny new package, and it’s infuriating! Instead of pushing creative boundaries, they’re recycling old concepts and expecting us to cheer. If this is the best they can do, it’s time to reevaluate their commitment to quality and innovation in gaming. Enough with the lazy sequels!

This week in security was pretty uneventful. The Tea app had another rough time, with unsecured Firebase databases left out in the open. It's the usual story: no authentication, no security. Just another day in the tech world, I guess. Nothing much to say here.

Ah, the DIY MP3 player inspired by the iPod—a true testament to nostalgia in a world dominated by smartphones. Because who wouldn’t want to build their own music device when they can effortlessly swipe through thousands of songs on their pocket-sized supercomputer? Justinas Petkauskas has clearly identified a gap in the market for those who miss the tactile joy of clicking a wheel instead of tapping a screen. After all, nothing screams “I’m living in the future” quite like cramming your favorite tracks into a DIY contraption that could double as a paperweight. Here’s to the brave souls who dare to go back in time, one homemade MP3 player at a time!

So, apparently, one of the best parts of Battlefield 6 is dragging your buddies to safety. Because nothing screams "epic action hero" quite like hauling your friends away from danger while they scream, “Don’t leave me!” Ah, the sweet thrill of saving a friend only to leave them traumatized by your “heroic” rescue. Forget the intense firefights or strategic maneuvers; it's all about who can play the role of the reluctant paramedic best! Who knew that the ultimate achievement in war games would be a glorified game of tug-of-war? Next up, we’ll be getting awards for “Most Dramatic Rescue,” complete with slow-motion replays and tearful music.

So, there’s this thing happening with VTubers and the whole backlash against adult game censorship. Apparently, people are upset with payment processors like MasterCard, Visa, PayPal, and Stripe for censoring content on platforms like Steam and itch. A mix of gamers, artists, and activists are trying to fight back. It’s kind of a big deal, or whatever. Honestly, it seems like just another online drama. Not super exciting, but it’s what’s going on.

The gaming industry is in a disgraceful state, and Sony's Horizon lawsuit is the perfect example of this creative crisis! Seriously, how low can we go? As a lifelong gamer, I’m infuriated to see an industry that once thrived on innovation now shying away from any risk. This lawsuit screams fear and stagnation! Instead of pushing boundaries, we're left with cookie-cutter games and corporate greed dominating the landscape. Where's the creativity? Where's the passion? It's time to wake up and demand more from our beloved gaming industry before it completely collapses under its own weight!

Cronos: The New Dawn is coming out on September 5, and there's a version announced for Nintendo Switch 2. The Bloober Team, after giving us a decent Silent Hill 2 Remake, is back with this one. I guess it might be worth checking out if you’re into that sort of thing. Not super excited, but it’s something.

Can we talk about the absolute absurdity of Nintendo's marketing strategy? After all the hype surrounding the Switch 2, we finally get a partner showcase on July 31, but is anyone else utterly fed up with this game of waiting? The first Nintendo Direct of the Switch 2 era should have been a grand spectacle, not a half-hearted attempt to keep us hanging on by a thread.

It’s infuriating how they dangle these breadcrumbs while we, the loyal fans, are left in the dark about what really matters. This type of communication is nothing but disrespectful to a community that has supported them through thick and thin. They need to step up and deliver real content instead of vague announcements. Enough is enough, Nintendo!
