Nicolas Cage is playing Spider-Man in a black-and-white 1950s noir series that's out at the end of this month, and somehow that's not even the wildest thing discussed this week.Asha Sharma quietly killed Xbox's Copilot integration, an AI assistant that was officially announced as recently as March. Luke is so relieved he can barely contain it. Between that, the price cuts, and the achievement system overhaul, we try to work out whether she's the real deal or if Microsoft just had a drawer full of approved changes waiting for someone new to take credit.There's also the question of what Peter Molyneux knew and when, as his new Fable-adjacent game Masters of Albion gets caught up in accusations that its predecessor Legacy was a crypto rug pull. We trace the full sorry arc from CryptoZoo to Hawk Tuah to Johnny Depp drinking his investment wine, and end up somewhere near 'nobody learns anything.'On the genuinely good news side: Alien Isolation 2 is real, Conan Exiles got a surprise free Unreal Engine 5 rebuild that looks stunning, The Guild is crowdfunding a 20th anniversary reunion movie, and the new Resident Evil film from Zack Cregger looks considerably better than its early 'road trip comedy' reputation suggested. Plus Luke has opinions about every movie coming out for the rest of 2025, and the Terminator 2 35th anniversary theatrical run might actually be worth seeing in 70mm.No AI on xboxSteam Controller: The Ars Technica review - Ars TechnicaMeet the players who lost big money on Peter Molyneux’s failed Legacy - Ars Technica"Alien: Isolation 2" Game Location Gets Teased - Dark HorizonsSony’s PS5 sales plummet amid price rises and a memory crisis | The VergeThe Nintendo Switch 2 is getting more expensive later this year - Ars Technica"Disclosure Day" Stirs "Close Encounters" Talk - Dark HorizonsTeaser Trailer: Zach Cregger's "Resident Evil" - Dark HorizonsCregger On "Resident Evil" Timeline, Leon Absence - Dark Horizons"Terminator 2: Judgment Day" Returns To Cinemas - Dark Horizons"The Guild" Reunion Movie Is Happening!!!"Odyssey" Trailer Stirs Daddy & Accent Debate - Dark HorizonsFull Trailer: Nic Cage Is "Spider-Noir" - Dark Horizons
