Well, Eurogamer have upset the pro-AI camp with this review.

Reading the comments on the EG site, and it's clear that a lot of gamers genuinely don't care about people such as voice actors losing their jobs because "game good".
For Arc Raiders to ride the wave of human sociability all the way to the bank, while also being so contemptuous of the thing that makes us social animals in its own workflow demonstrates a lack of artistic integrity that I find impossible to ignore.

“New York Times conducts hostile interview with children’s education influencer questioning her recognition of comprehensively documented war crimes” is not a sentence I could have imagined a few years ago

This is the latest build of my DOS game jam game. It’s currently 208kb, single executable, and that’s with a bunch of standard C libraries still linked in. Plays well, too IMHO :D

I guarantee the IOC issuing a blanket ban on trans athletes is because the US Government has pressured them with threats of preventing the Olympics from taking place in LA.

The IOC will follow the money and bend the knee, rather than be a vanguard for true equality.

After years of this bullshit, I'm STILL waiting for a transphobe to give me a definitive list of the trans women who have "dominated" their chosen sport and made it "impossible for those born as women to compete".

I shan't hold my breath....

40 years ago we’d have congressional hearings falsely accusing metal bands of putting backwards messages in their songs that told kids to kill themselves & now we have a planet-killing chatbot that’s all like “bet you won’t commit suicide chickenshit bitch” & the government is like here’s $5 billion

If you ever feel like a fraud, just know that "the UK's richest living artist" and former Turner prize winner Damien Hirst is flogging prints of crudely drawn Space Invaders for 3,000 dollars a pop.

NEW VIDEO: In 1996 Kenneth Branagh released an epic 4 hour version of William Shakespeare's Hamlet. In 1997 it got an official videogame adaptation that fell into deep obscurity.

Until now.

Working hard? Hardly working?

Either way, why not watch this if you haven't already? And if you have, why not share it to your friends? What's the worst that can happen?

Why not watch this?

29 long years have passed since I founded the emulation archive, Zophar's Domain, on 11.9.96. To this very day, the site still stands as a testament to an era that never actually disappeared but continues to live in the hearts of retrogamers all over the word. Emulation Forever!
