Was that a Falconhoof reference right at the start of your @giantbomb.bsky.social top 10?

I tried to make a 'kill Jester' comment but I guess the mods thought I was directing violence towards you!

It's time for another batch of Verge articles that are completely free to read for the day.

First up: @superantonio64.bsky.social made a list of all the prompts in Microsoft's holiday-themed Copilot AI ad, then checked them twice. Guess what happened
Microsoft made another Copilot ad where nothing actually works
I don’t want Copilot for Christmas.

Massive thanks to all the folks who signed up this week to support our work. We rarely complain about the algo but our YouTube reach has been drastically cut in 2025 for reasons we don't understand. Patronage is the only way we fund all of our work, so it means a lot. Thank you so much.

None of this would have been possible without Quake 2 proving you could even play a shooter online. Sub out Overwatch for Quake 2!

These damn Grubb and Minotti kids not knowing their elders 😂
Halo doesn’t succeed on Xbox without Goldeneye setting the table for console FPS. Sub Overwatch with Bond, and this is perfect.

“The truth is, there's going to be a time, trillions and trillions of years from now, when the universe will exist in a heat death, and everything will have decayed to a maximum state of entropy, and there's literally nothing. Battleborn was about the last star that would exist before that moment.."

I hope this dies on its arse. What a giant pile of shit.

See, I would, but then I remember Alex Kurtzman is involved and he's a bloody awful writer who plagiarised Mass Effect for Picard Season One.

I'm starting to get the impression Phil Spencer and Matt Booty aren't very good at their jobs.

I've been banging this drum for years now, I know, but Zohran's Big Night is a clear illustration of the power of giving people a vision of the future that boldly contradicts the rhetoric of Republican fearmongers. Not just "disagrees on policies," but actively paints a different image of the world.
