• Grand Theft Auto 6's World Will Hopefully Avoid Repeating One of Red Dead 2's Few Mistakes

    Red Dead Redemption 2's world was incredible, but it did feature one misstep that Grand Theft Auto 6 should seek to avoid. In most cases, Red Dead Redemption 2 is a benchmark for what open-world games should hope to achieve. It even managed to eclipse other Grand Theft Auto games in that regard. However, for all the good things that Grand Theft Auto 6 could take from the game, there are a few ideas that should probably be left in the past; one in particular certainly doesn't need to make a grand return.

    Step into the surreal, retro-futuristic streets of We Happy Few, where a society obsessed with happiness hides its secrets behind a mask of forced cheer and a haze of “Joy.” This darkly whimsical adventure invites players to blend in, break out and uncover the truth lurking beneath the surface of Wellington Wells.
    Two worlds, one wild destiny.
    Broken Age spins a charming, hand-painted tale of two teenagers leading parallel lives in worlds at once strange and familiar. One of the teens yearns to escape a stifling spaceship, and the other is destined to challenge ancient traditions. With witty dialogue and heartfelt moments, Broken Age is a storybook come to life, brimming with quirky characters and clever puzzles.
    Each of these unforgettable adventures brings its own flavor — be it dark satire, whimsical wonder or pulse-pounding suspense — offering a taste of gaming at its imaginative peaks. Stream these captivating worlds straight from the cloud and enjoy seamless gameplay, no downloads or high-end hardware required.
    An Ultimate Controller

  • This week has been a heavy burden, one that I carry alone, with each moment pressing down on my heart like a stone. I wrote code, thinking I was contributing something valuable, something that would protect, something that would help. Yet here I am, faced with the haunting reality that I caused a 9.5 CVSS CVE. The weight of my actions feels insurmountable, and the world feels so cold and distant right now.

    How did I let it come to this? The public and private keys, once thought to be safe, now exposed, vulnerable among devices. I can’t shake the feeling of betrayal, not just of the users who trusted me, but of my own expectations. It’s as if I’m standing in a room full of people, yet I feel utterly alone. The silence is deafening, and the only sound I hear is the echo of my mistakes.

    I triaged the situation with a heavy heart, knowing that my oversight could have far-reaching consequences. I read the reports, the warnings — and with every word, I felt a deeper sense of isolation. The internet, once a vibrant place of connection, now seems like a desolate wasteland that reflects my own feelings of abandonment. It’s a reminder of how quickly everything can come crashing down, how fragile our digital lives really are.

    I thought I was building something worthwhile, but now I find myself questioning my purpose. Did I truly understand the weight of my responsibilities? Did I consider the lives entwined with the code I wrote? The guilt gnaws at me, and I can’t help but wonder if I’ll ever find redemption.

    In this age of interconnectedness, I feel more disconnected than ever. I look around and see others moving forward, while I am left behind, haunted by the shadows of my own making. The loneliness is suffocating, and I long for understanding, for someone to share this burden with me. Yet, all I feel is the chill of isolation, a stark reminder that even in a crowd, one can feel utterly lost.

    As I navigate through this storm, I hope to find a way to make amends, to rebuild the trust that has been shattered. But for now, I sit with my sorrow, a silent witness to my own downfall, wishing for a flicker of hope in this darkness.

  • 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 !

    Asus ROG Xbox Ally, ROG Xbox Ally X to Start Pre-Orders in August, Launch in October – Rumour
    A new report indicates that the ROG Xbox Ally will be priced at around €599, while the more powerful ROG Xbox Ally X will cost €899.

    Posted By Joelle Daniels | On 16th, Jun. 2025

    While Microsoft and Asus have unveiled the ROG Xbox Ally and ROG Xbox Ally X handheld gaming systems, the companies have yet to confirm the prices or release dates for the two systems. While the announcement  mentioned that they will be launched later this year, a new report, courtesy of leaker Extas1s, indicates that pre-orders for both devices will be kicked off in August, with the launch then happening in October. As noted by Extas1s, the lower-powered ROG Xbox Ally is expected to be priced around €599. The leaker claims to have corroborated the pricing details for the handheld with two different Europe-based retailers. The more powerful ROG Xbox Ally X, on the other hand, is expected to be priced at €899. This would put its pricing in line with Asus’s own ROG Ally X. Previously, Asus senior manager of marketing content for gaming, Whitson Gordon, had revealed that pricing and power use were the two biggest reasons why both the ROG Xbox Ally and the ROG Xbox Ally X didn’t feature OLED displays. Rather, both systems will come equipped with 7-inch 1080p 120 Hz LCD displays with variable refresh rate capabilities. “We did some R&D and prototyping with OLED, but it’s still not where we want it to be when you factor VRR into the mix and we aren’t willing to give up VRR,” said Gordon. “I’ll draw that line in the sand right now. I am of the opinion that if a display doesn’t have variable refresh rate, it’s not a gaming display in the year 2025 as far as I’m concerned, right? That’s a must-have feature, and OLED with VRR right now draws significantly more power than the LCD that we’re currently using on the Ally and it costs more.” Explaining further that the decision ultimately also came down to keeping the pricing for both systems at reasonable levels, since buyers often tend to get handheld gaming systems as their secondary machiens, Gordon noted that both handhelds would have much higher price tags if OLED displays were used. “That’s all I’ll say about price,” said Gordon. “You have to align your expectations with the market and what we’re doing here. Adding 32GB, OLED, Z2 Extreme, and all of those extra bells and whistles would cost a lot more than the price bracket you guys are used to on the Ally, and the vast majority of users are not willing to pay that kind of price.” Shortly after its announcement, Microsoft and Asus had released a video where the two companies spoke about the various features of the ROG Xbox Ally and ROG Xbox Ally X. In the video, we also get to see an early hardware prototype of the handheld gaming system built inside a cardboard box. The ROG Xbox Ally runs on an AMD Ryzen Z2A chip, and has 16 GB of LPDDR5X-6400 RAM and 512 GB of storage. The ROG Xbox Ally X, on the other hand, runs on an AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme chip, and has 24 GB of LPDDR5X-8000 RAM and 1 TB of storage. Both systems run on Windows. Tagged With:

    Asus ROG Xbox Ally, ROG Xbox Ally X to Start Pre-Orders in August, Launch in October – Rumour
    Asus ROG Xbox Ally, ROG Xbox Ally X to Start Pre-Orders in August, Launch in October – Rumour A new report indicates that the ROG Xbox Ally will be priced at around €599, while the more powerful ROG Xbox Ally X will cost €899. Posted By Joelle Daniels | On 16th, Jun. 2025 While Microsoft and Asus have unveiled the ROG Xbox Ally and ROG Xbox Ally X handheld gaming systems, the companies have yet to confirm the prices or release dates for the two systems. While the announcement  mentioned that they will be launched later this year, a new report, courtesy of leaker Extas1s, indicates that pre-orders for both devices will be kicked off in August, with the launch then happening in October. As noted by Extas1s, the lower-powered ROG Xbox Ally is expected to be priced around €599. The leaker claims to have corroborated the pricing details for the handheld with two different Europe-based retailers. The more powerful ROG Xbox Ally X, on the other hand, is expected to be priced at €899. This would put its pricing in line with Asus’s own ROG Ally X. Previously, Asus senior manager of marketing content for gaming, Whitson Gordon, had revealed that pricing and power use were the two biggest reasons why both the ROG Xbox Ally and the ROG Xbox Ally X didn’t feature OLED displays. Rather, both systems will come equipped with 7-inch 1080p 120 Hz LCD displays with variable refresh rate capabilities. “We did some R&D and prototyping with OLED, but it’s still not where we want it to be when you factor VRR into the mix and we aren’t willing to give up VRR,” said Gordon. “I’ll draw that line in the sand right now. I am of the opinion that if a display doesn’t have variable refresh rate, it’s not a gaming display in the year 2025 as far as I’m concerned, right? That’s a must-have feature, and OLED with VRR right now draws significantly more power than the LCD that we’re currently using on the Ally and it costs more.” Explaining further that the decision ultimately also came down to keeping the pricing for both systems at reasonable levels, since buyers often tend to get handheld gaming systems as their secondary machiens, Gordon noted that both handhelds would have much higher price tags if OLED displays were used. “That’s all I’ll say about price,” said Gordon. “You have to align your expectations with the market and what we’re doing here. Adding 32GB, OLED, Z2 Extreme, and all of those extra bells and whistles would cost a lot more than the price bracket you guys are used to on the Ally, and the vast majority of users are not willing to pay that kind of price.” Shortly after its announcement, Microsoft and Asus had released a video where the two companies spoke about the various features of the ROG Xbox Ally and ROG Xbox Ally X. In the video, we also get to see an early hardware prototype of the handheld gaming system built inside a cardboard box. The ROG Xbox Ally runs on an AMD Ryzen Z2A chip, and has 16 GB of LPDDR5X-6400 RAM and 512 GB of storage. The ROG Xbox Ally X, on the other hand, runs on an AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme chip, and has 24 GB of LPDDR5X-8000 RAM and 1 TB of storage. Both systems run on Windows.

  • AU Deals: Today's Hottest AAA Discounts to Heat Up Your Game Cave Winter Hibernation

    Winter is well and truly biting, but this fresh crop of game deals is bringing the heat. From mythological mayhem to pocket-sized platformers, there’s something here for every taste and timeframe. If your digital shelf could use a mid-year injection of chaos, charm, or challenge, this week’s offerings are primed to please.This Day in Gaming In retro news, I’m lighting a 26‑candle cake for Silent Hill, the fog‑laden survival horror fest that kept '99-era me perched on a seat with barely 2% of the surface area of one butt cheek. I still remember tentatively sweeping my flashlight across those grainy, polygonal streets, only to have the beam half illuminate some scurrying something in the dark.
    Though the OG Resident Evil certainly vexed me first, the unique magic of Silent Hill lay in how its graphical limitations—thick fog and encroaching darkness—became tools of terror rather than platform limitations. Every ring of static from your radio or *that* air raid siren heralding the "other plane" of this madhouse could ratchet up the dread in an instant. Lastly, I recall working game retail at launch and having to help absolutely bloody everybody with a solution to the piano puzzle.Tank controls andbugger all visibility.

    This article was originally published on GameDevDigest.comEnjoy!What was Radiant AI, anyway? - A ridiculously deep dive into Oblivion's controversial AI system and its legacyblog.paavo.meConsider The Horse Game - No I don’t think every dev should make a horse game. But I do think every developer should at least look at them, maybe even play one because, it is very important that you understand the importance of genre, fandom, and how visibility works. Even if you are not making a horse game, the lessons you can learn by looking at this sub genre are very similar to other genres, just not as blatantly clear as they are with horse games.howtomarketagame.comMaking a killing: The playful 2D terror of Psycasso® - I sat down with lead developer Benjamin Lavender and Omni, designer and producer, to talk about this playfully gory game that gives a classic retro style and a freshtwist.UnityIntroduction to Asset Manager transfer methods in Unity - Unity's Asset Manager is a user-friendly digital asset management platform supporting over 70 file formats to help teams centralize, organize, discover, and use assets seamlessly across projects. It reduces redundant work by design, making cross-team collaboration smoother and accelerating production workflows.UnityVideosRules of the Game: Five Tricks of Highly Effective Designers - Every working designer has them: unique techniques or "tricks" that they use when crafting gameplay. Sure, there's the general game design wisdom that everyone agrees on and can be found in many a game design book, but experienced game designers often have very specific rules that are personal to them, techniques that not everyone knows about or even agrees with. In this GDC 2015 session, five experienced game designers join the stage for 10 minutes each to share one game design "trick" that they use.Game Developers ConferenceBinding of Isaac Style Room Generator in Unity- Our third part in the series - making the rooms!Game Dev GarnetIntroduction to Unity Behavior | Unity Tutorial - In this video you'll become familiar with the core concepts of Unity Behavior, including a live example.LlamAcademyHow I got my demo ready for Steam Next Fest - It's Steam Next Fest, and I've got a game in the showcase.

You’ll learn how to allocate raw memory for temporary graph-like structures—such as crafting trees or decision planners—without triggering the garbage collector. We’ll walk through the concept of stack frames, translate that to heap-based arena allocation, and implement a fast, disposable system that gives you full control over memory layout and lifetime. Perfect for performance-critical systems where GC spikes aren’t acceptable.git-amendCloth Animation Using The Compute Shader - In this video, we dive into cloth simulation using OpenGL compute shaders. By applying simple mathematical equations, we’ll achieve smooth, dynamic movement.
