@darth there's also The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. But I don't know, it's less impactful than Breath of the Wild and more predictable than Hugwarts winning.
#Microsoft has stated that the #XboxSeriesX and #XboxSeriesS refresh will be all digital and will not have an optical drive. I know this is an unpopular opinion, but I fully understand this. Using optical media feels like something we used to do a couple of decades ago. At some point, it has to stop, and I fully recognize that this creates some challenges with video game preservation. But does it really? #Games nowadays are so dependent on servers, patches, etc… that I suspect physical media or not the game preservation efforts cannot rely on discs alone. #gaming
@darth it has a good chance to be game of the year, it is a game that really makes you feel like you entered the Harry Potter universe.
@whatatoots health is another one, working from home gives you much more time to work out before or after work and you aren't exposed to office foods and snacks that can derail your healthy diet.
Panos leaving Microsoft after creating and running the Surface hardware line over the past ten years to go work on Alexa & Echo devices is a massive W for Amazon and L for Microsoft.
Can’t see how this is anything but a bad sign for that line of products at Microsoft.

@MissingThePt joking aside, I am still waiting for the temporary extra security measures that were added after 911 to go away. Any moment now travel will be back to normal... Still waiting.
Having enjoyed two #3d #games recently with simpler graphics (#Exoprimal and #Farlight84) I think I now want simpler graphics. Comparatively, I also tried playing #Starfield and sure it looks like your usual polished and hyper-detailed #Unreal game but I didn't enjoy it or its looks much. This also has the advantage that my #SteamDeck , #desktop , or #console isn't catching fire keeping up with the graphics.#gaming
So what I am saying I guess can be summarized as I value unique stylized graphics more than realistic especially when it comes with the added bonus of the game being more performant.
Unity apologises for the new runtime fee, say they will make changes https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2023/09/unity-apologises-for-the-new-runtime-fee-say-they-will-make-changes/
@gamingonlinux I think the damage is done, unless there's a complete change of management at Unity Technologies I think it is unlikely that the trust will not be regained.
@mikemathia Living dangerously! YEAH!
I wasn't super mega keen on the #MarioMovie
It seemed like an extension of the old Mario 3 cartoon and it was entertaining enough, but at least to me it was a little meh.
Not a terrible video game movie but not exactly Ready Player One or Detective Pikachu.
I would have preferred it if Peach was more Peach like and of Mario spoke like Mario. That’s just two small changes I would have made.
@gpowerf Sweet! My current daily driver is an AV modded NSTC Sears Telegames, just for something different, but my first was a Vader.
This is my fun social media account, I will post a lot of video game stuff (mostly old or cloud gaming) and some work stuff.
If I post an image with no Alt text it is because the image is just there for decoration and doesn't provide any extra meaning to the toot.
