Ingen spelfilm har blivit så hatat innan den släppts!

From software stämt för att elden ring är för svårt:

"Developed by id Software, and originally released in 1993, DOOM pioneered and popularized the first-person shooter, setting a standard for all FPS games. The critically acclaimed sequel, DOOM II, followed in 1994.

Now the definitive, newly enhanced versions of DOOM + DOOM II are available in a single combined release with Game Pass, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC."

"Stray is coming to Nintendo Switch on November 19th!

Be silly. Be curious. Be stealthy. Be a little annoying. But most of all, be a cat ready to pounce your way through the neon-lit alleys and untangle the ancient mystery to escape the decaying cybercity in Stray!"

"The gates to the Forbidden City are open! Deathbound is now available on PlayStation®5. Embark on a dark crusade through the world of Zieminal and face challenging enemies crafted to push you to your limits."

En reddit användare postade att han märkt att Steam hade en inställning/filter som döljer recensioner som inte markerats som hjälpsamma av användare. Det försvann sen, men kanske något som testas.

Forskare i Region Västmanland ska ta reda på om ungdomars köp av virtuella prylar i dataspel kan leda till spelberoende och psykisk ohälsa.

Källmaterialet består av tidigare insamlade och anonymiserade data inom den 20 år långa studien Salve, Survey of Adolescent Life in Vestmanland, där personer födda 1997 och 1999 följs genom åren för att kartlägga hur olika genetiska och sociala faktorer samverkar kring psykisk hälsa och beroende.

Projektet har beviljats 1,2 miljoner kronor från statliga Svenska spels oberoende forskningsråd.

Forskningsprojektet genomförs under 2025-2026. Förutom Kent Nilsson ingår även professorerna Helgi Schiöth och Cecilia Åslund, samt PhD Susanne Olofsdotter, samtliga tillhörande Uppsala universitet, men både Cecilia Åslund och Susanne Olofsdotter verkar i Region Västmanland.

Gta VI verkar inte bara bli stort utan även expandera över tid! Förhoppningsvis inte bara online.

Pc-versionen är dock inte påbörjad än och det kommer inledningsvis inte till Gamepass.

Black Myth: Wukong har släppt ett benchmark-verktyg innan release den 20 augusti. Väl att tänka på att det möjligen kommer någon drivrutin innan släpp också. Men kan ju vara trevligt att se ungefärlig FPS.

A message to the community from our game director
Fellow Helldivers,

I want to directly address the feedback you've raised about the Escalation of Freedom update. We’ve spent the last week listening to feedback, reflecting about the path ahead for Helldivers 2 and how we want to continue developing the game. In short, we didn’t hit our target with the latest update. Some things we just didn’t get right - and other more fundamental inconsistencies in our approach to game balance and game direction.

All of that is on us and we are going to own that. As many of you have pointed out, and we agree, what matters most now is action. Not talk.

To that end, here's what we intend to do in the upcoming updates.

Our aim within the next 60 days:
Continue to re-examine our approach to balance. Our intention is that balance should be fun, not “balanced” for the sake of balance.
Update how the fire damage mechanic works to tweak how the flamethrower serves as a close range support weapon. (A quick straight revert won’t work, as it would break other things)
Rework gameplay to prevent excessive ragdolling
Re-think our design approach to primary weapons and create a plan for making combat more engaging
Re-prioritize bug fixes so that the more immediate gameplay-impacting bugs are prioritized.
Improve game performance (frame rate is a focus)
Rework Chargers
Additionally, from a bigger picture perspective we will be:

Exploring creation of an opt-in beta-test environment to improve our testing processes and we consider this a high-priority.
Post regular player surveys to gather more insights and feedback from the community.
Improve our process for patch/release notes - providing more context and reasoning behind changes.
More blog posts and streams where we expand on these topics for those interested.
We also want to thank you for your patience. We're grateful that so many of you provided constructive feedback and suggestions on the latest update.

Game Director & Arrowhead Game Studios
