What a bummer to see this from Vincke. People do not need AI to do any of that shit. Even the smallest, most repetitive, and annoying bits of the creative process are important. Replacing them with plagairism undermines everything that comes after.
I think it's nice when concept art shows the evolution of people's creative processes instead of a prompt, but what do I know

When I was 12 my new friend rented a Genesis and Altered Beast. The first time the wizard said "Welcome to your doom" we both blurted out "Thanks for inviting us!" at the same time while turning towards one another in shock. Then we were best friends.

Wonder if Valve secured the Steam Machine components before things went from bad to apocalyptic. If so they might have the only halfway affordable gaming PC for quite a while

Kathy Rain 1+2 are every good thing you associate with the point-and-click genre without the clunk or bullshit. Definitely worth your time and the $12

GoG survey's one step away from saying we're clearly made for one another, why can't we set the problems aside and start over

If the leaks are legit, it looks like Valve went ahead and made a GameCube. GabeCube?

No One Lives Forever is 25 years old today. And you STILL can't buy it.

But you can still GET it! And you should, because it's still completely brilliant.

Cache and Funny Games had me glued to the screen, feeling things I hadn't felt about movies before. I should probably check out Haneke's other work. Thanks, brain, for taking 20 years to come up with that
