GOTY scrutiny hits every game and for today it seems like the @giantbomb.bsky.social forums have applied a spotlight to Donkey Kong Bananza. Is it fair to give it GOTY noms when its gimmick is so simple?

User Blog: www.giantbomb.com/forums/gener...

#games #gaming #gameindustry #gamenews #gamingnews
A screenshot showing an excerpt of a user-created blog on Giant Bomb wherein the author of this blog is attempting to annotate what are the biggest gaming industry messes of 2025. This excerpt says: The Candidates: AbleGamers - Founder Mark Barlet is allegedly a huge misogynist creep who mocked individuals with physical disabilities. He also allegedly wasted massive amounts of donation money on personal spending. Steven Spohn, COO of AbleGamers, allegedly discouraged former employees from speaking to IGN by using "manipulative language". You can read all of these details in the IGN article, but be warned that it's severely depressing. The Alters - The developer failed to disclose the use of generative AI for images and text, then lied (allegedly) about the genAI items being placeholders. People seem to have mostly forgotten this one, but I didn't want to delete entries. Amazon - Sunset New World immediately after a well-received expansion was released, in accordance with massive layoffs throughout the company. You'll never believe what that money is being reallocated to. Apple - The tech giant was found in contempt of court after failing to implement orders from the Epic vs. Apple case from several years back. They blocked or slow-rolled the addition of Fortnite back into iOS, and it's unclear how large a hit the ruling will end up being to Apple's profit margins.

This interview with the Roblox CEO sure is "something!"

For those that think this now qualifies for the @giantbomb.bsky.social "Hottest Mess 2025" voting, click "Other" and then explain your vote in the comments!

Thread & Poll Link: www.giantbomb.com/forums/gener...

#games #gaming #gamenews
A comment in the Giant Bomb discussion thread titled "Hottest Mess 2025 - Community's Choice! (Vote for 3)." The comment indicates that they think the hottest mess of 2025 is Roblox in light of the game's CEO's recent interview with the New York Times. Transcript of the comment: Late dishonorable mention goes to Black Ops 7 using ugly AI art in place of real art for gamertag IDs. I'm sure there might be some more messes that will come out, even though 2025 is almost over. My Picks: 1. Roblox. Yes, the other messes more so have to do with business practices and failures, but Roblox is worse, because they knowingly let predators use their platform and create games to prey upon children. On top of this, they went out of their way the last couple of years banning and even suing content creators who were pointing this out and trying to stop it. It wasn't until this went viral and mainstream news began covering it that the people behind Roblox even acknowledge that it was even a problem. Even politicians began calling them out. That is a huge mess.
