MonsiuerPatEBrown, do games w Spec Ops: The Line permanently removed from Steam and other digital stores

Geez glad I played it when it came out.

icermiga, do gaming w Ubisoft blames ‘technical error’ for showing pop-up ads in Assassin’s Creed

Obviously coding this up isn’t accidental, so I guess they mean that activating the feature was accidental (not very reassuring) but also it’s kind of hard to believe that even that was accidental. Any very basic QA would have prevented that. It was probably deliberately testing the waters.

hoshikarakitaridia, do games w Unity’s CEO is out, but that still may not be enough for developers

Yeah I’m gonna give the summary of the most important comments on this:

  • Unity is untrustworthy
  • they pulled this shit knowing it would fall flat
  • the CEO got his position when he was already known to be a prick
  • shady insider trading is shady
  • the board who chose or approved the CEO is still the same
  • there’s solid alternatives

These are all the reasons why you shouldn’t go back to Unity. That said, I’m very sorry for the Devs of Unity who most definitely don’t deserve this.

Computerchairgeneral, do gaming w Microsoft addresses the huge Xbox leaks: here’s Phil Spencer’s full memo

Curious to see the differences between the "real" plans and the leaked ones. Obviously, some of the dates are off since some of those games haven't been released yet and I have a hard time believing Elder Scrolls 6 is coming out next year. I could see some of those games being canceled, but it's hard to see plans around the midgen refresh changing up too much. It makes sense to have something to compete with the PS5 Pro that Sony is probably going to release next year and an all-digital Series X would be a good way to test the waters for going completely digital next generation.

A lot of the planned release dates got pushed back a year or two because of covid, so add a year to each date to get closer to when things are probably going to actually come out, I reckon.

I haven’t heard about any plans for PS5 Pro, but all that leaks have said what’s coming out is more like a Slim, since it’s going to be smaller, and not have a built-in disk drive. We’ll see, tho.

kadu, do games w This is Microsoft’s new disc-less Xbox Series X design with a new controller

I’m super interested in the new controller.

I got the 8bitdo ultimate and deeply regret buying it, so now I’m back to my Series S controller.

I’m guessing you’re talking about the wired version that works with the Xbox console? What made you not like it?

I have the 8bitdo Pro 2 which I use with my phone and iPad. Aside from the rubber wearing out on the thumbsticks, I’m happy with it.

LaggyKar, do games w This is Microsoft’s new disc-less Xbox Series X design with a new gyro controller
@LaggyKar@programming.dev avatar

I hope it actually has gyros, so XBOX can finally get gyro aim. I don’t play on XBOX, but maybe support for that in XBOX controllers would make devs more inclined to support it. But the document only mentions an accelerometer.

Also, what’s up with controllers dropping face button colors? The PS5 did the same thing.

From an aesthetic standpoint it just looks better^1 , and by now gaming consoles are so Mainstream that the additional accessibility the colors offer is not a good enough reason to keep them anymore.

^1 subjective, of course, but if you look at modern, big corporate design a lot of it is trending towards minimalism, very little use of color, etc.

Hawk, do games w Stray is being turned into a movie

What’s with all these games being turned into movies.

At least this makes more sense than Vampire Survivors

ABCDE, do games w Stray is being turned into a movie

With a lot of fleshing out it could be good, with no need to follow the loose story the game has.
