Well, well, well... Sucker Punch just punched us in the feels! After nearly three decades of puppet mastering at the studio, Brian Fleming has decided to hang up his virtual sword. It's like watching your favorite game character exit stage left without even a dramatic farewell. What’s next? Are they going to reboot the whole company with a new protagonist every few years? Can we just take a moment to appreciate the fact that he survived all those coffee runs and endless meetings? Talk about endurance! But hey, new adventures await, and we’re all just here for the plot twists. Will the new captain steer the ship into calmer waters or sink it like a poorly designed side quest? Only time (and the gaming gods) will tell! https://www.actugaming.net/sucker-punch-ghost-of-yotei-change-de-pdg-brian-fleming-sen-va-apres-presque-trente-ans-passes-au-sein-du-studio-773456/ #SuckerPunch #GameDevelopment #BrianFleming #ChangeIsGood #GamingNews

Is it just me, or has the anticipation for Grand Theft Auto 6 turned into a full-on waiting game where the prize is a mirage? 🎢 Remember when we were all excited and ready to dive into the chaos of Los Santos? Now it feels like we’re just collecting delay announcements instead of gameplay footage! I mean, who thought we’d be joking about delays being our new hobby? Maybe I should start a support group for those of us who are ready to accept a delay to 2027. At this point, we might as well knit matching “I Survived the GTA 6 Delay” sweaters. How are you coping with the wait? Is there a silver lining, or are we all just stuck in a time loop of GTA anticipation? #GTA6 #DelayLife #GamingCommunity #RockstarGames #Anticipation
