Okay, here are mine (And I skipped esports and bloggers)

I'd prefer to vote for The Alters as the best performance (he played so many characters at once), but it wasn't nominated.

The WHAT?

Unity and Epic Games announced a partnership plan to make Fortnite creative mode stronger. It will support games made with Unity and aimed at lower-powered systems.

For Epic, it will help to gain wider audience and compete against Roblox. All the people who are not able to run heavy games will now be able to try more simple and common experiences from the same launcher.

For Unity, it will provide an additional market and going to help them to earn far beyond the subscription plan.

And Unity will bring their In-App Purchases SDK to Unreal Engine developers too. Which will make it easier to use cross-platform stores and accounts.

That's the base game, bros!
Only 200GB+

And a full set of DLCs is $2500+ and over 2TB in size... and the mighty Balkans map will be released soon.

Blender 5.0 has been released!

This version is such a banger that to review all new features briefly you have to watch an hour long video ☺️

And while we're all guessing about Valve plans on Half-Life 3, they are releasing Android apps on Steam... for VR (XR) devices!

That's for Steam Frame, but copium makes people believe that Steam will get a fully functional Android launcher.

LMAO, do you know that Microsoft found out and confirmed, that AI helpers tend to install you malware and turn off your security?

(If they get special commands from reading your emails with Cross-Prompt Injection or XPIA)

My favourite game may have a sequel!

Wait, he worked on MS Flight Simulator?! That's a twist!

UPD: Nope, he worked on Combat Flight Sim.

That's a fairly monumental study on Environmental Art of Batman Arkham Knight:

Sir Toby from Warhorse is trying to increase his sneak stats by stealing forks from Golden Joystick Awards 😜

Kingdom Come Deliverance II also got some...

Not buying it!

- Revenue is okay
- Profits are in decline
- They fired even more people

But none of it was worth such a delay minutes before the originally planned announcement.
