I posted on @damagecontrolblog.bsky.social about how Sega and Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio gave one of the worst excuses I've ever seen to casting a sexual harasser in Yakuza Kiwami 3. www.dcgameblog.com/2026/02/exam...

Yakuza Kiwami 3 really needed a known sexual harasser in the cast, you see.

Very grim that they're cutting the 2XKO development team's size in half not even a month after the official launch on consoles. I'd be shocked if the game is successful after this, now that Riot's cutting it off at the knees. www.gamedeveloper.com/business/rio...

Hundreds of millions spent on human misery
In the last month ICE has bought warehouses in:

- Hagerstown, MD: $102 million
- Surprise, AZ: $70 million
- Hamburg, PA: $87 million
- Tremont, PA: $120 million
- San Antonio, TX: $82 million
- El Paso, TX: $123 million
- Social Circle, GA: price unknown

This is unprecedented.

ICYMI I updated last night's Strider livestream announcement on Damage Control Blog with embedded video from Twitch. I made it to the last stage in Strider, but got overran. I also played the 2014 remake for a bit.

Part 1 of my Strider livestream is now on Damage Control Blog's YouTube channel. I get acquainted with a game I've never played, and it shows. Strider is fun and definitely a product of the late 1980s!

I couldn't quite get it done. And at the end, played a bit of the 2014 Strider remake. I made it to stage 5 though, so maybe next week will be my week.
The stream is over! We made it to the final stage, but got overwhelmed with everything Strider throws at you. Let's try again next week! We raided @dopples.bsky.social who's currently playing Killer 7.

Tonight I (hopefully) beat Strider on Twitch for Damage Control Blog I made it to stage 3 last week in about an hour. We'll see how my battle against the Soviet-styled alien space forces goes. Join me at 8 ET for something that's not Superbowl related!

ICYMI I wrote about why Valve's delay of the Steam Machine (and assorted hardware) is a very bad sign for the near future of computer and gaming hardware for a @damagecontrolblog.bsky.social post. www.dcgameblog.com/2026/02/cogn...

The Steam Machine’s delay means a worst-case scenario for the hardware will come to pass, and it’s just the beginning.

You could have told me that this was JP from Street Fighter 6 instead of Magneto in an alternate skin in Marvel Rivals, and I would have believed you. They should be bullied into making a new Marvel vs. Capcom game for this, or even just a new X-Men vs. Street Fighter game.

I can't help but feel a little sad about Super Sentai ending, even though I haven't come close to watching all of them. Toei said they might do movies and specials over the next decade, so it's not too late for, I don't know, Shin Gorenger.
