SCOOP: Last year, Ubisoft cancelled an Assassin's Creed game set during Reconstruction. Was to feature a Black Assassin who, among other things, fought the rise of the Klan

Sources: Leadership nixed it over concerns re: U.S. political climate, backlash to Yasuke

TRON Ares is pure vibes, and I guess, in that way, it's picking up the franchise's legacy the only way you really can.

@spawnonmepodcast.bsky.social fam, I’m curious, when you look at product reviews. What is most important thing you want covered?

- Overall impression?
- Unboxing?
- Product specs and features?

Nintendo's Museum Problem
I visited the Nintendo Museum in Kyoto. There were indeed some things from Nintendo's history that were missing, and some stuff I was surprised to see!

Well, that EA buyout happened, so you can be assured that we'll see thousands of people fired/terminated as part of some restructuring. Because that's what this industry needs right now.

As someone who only got a Dreamcast earlier this year, I wholeheartely agree with the cozy moniker for it. I guess it has more to do with the console's (and its games') Y2K aesthetics above all else.

Retro Blast 🎃 @retroblast.bsky.social · 13d

SEGA Dreamcast is probably my "coziest" console.

I feel happier and more peaceful when I play Dreamcast games. Maybe I'm nostalgic for this era of SEGA, but I know I'm not the only one who feels this way.

It wasn't here for long, but it left a huge mark for me.
