She also checked out indie title 1348: X Voto, praising it despite online backlash and hate.________________________________________📰 Gaming News Highlights:• Former Overwatch director Jeff Kaplan says developers largely ignore complaints from people who don’t actually play the games — sparking discussion around toxicity and “cancel culture” in gaming.• Resident Evil Requiem smashes sales records, hitting 6 million copies sold shortly after launch.• A planned Hitman TV series from the John Wick creator has officially been cancelled after years in development.• Fortnite V-Bucks prices increase, with players now getting less currency for the same money — raising questions about live-service monetisation and the future of battle royale games.• Developers continue to push back on AI voice acting, with some studios re-recording lines using real actors instead.• Sony rolls out updates to PS5 Pro’s AI upscaling tech, aiming to improve visuals and extend the console’s lifespan.• GDC and Xbox Next Gen news regarding project Helix , expected 2027 launch and the interesting idea of PC & Xbox games in one place.

From repetitive shooters to overcomplicated RPGs, debating which categories deserve to disappear and which still have hidden potential. Plus, Leon hosts this week’s quiz (yes, he actually remembered this time).🎮 What we’ve been playing: • Leon finished Ghost of Yōtai — calling it even better than Ghost of Tsushima — and shares a painful betrayal story from Arc Raiders. He also jumped into Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden, describing it as a “Souls-like Scottish ghost-hunting RPG,”. • Stu has been juggling Battlefield 6, Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, and Outer Worlds 2, comparing their campaigns, skill-based matchmaking, and overall vibes — with plenty of rants along the way. He’s also loving indie hit Ball X Pit, calling it “Vampire Survivors meets brick breaker.” • TommyT wrapped up Luigi’s Mansion 3, got addicted to Stardew Valley co-op, and dived into Vampire Survivors Online. He’s also praising Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown as “Ubisoft’s best game since Black Flag,” spent hours on Kingdom Come 2: Legacy of the Forge DLC, and fell in love with the decision-based adventure Dispatch, featuring voice talent from Aaron Paul, Laura Bailey, and Jeffrey Wright. • Tom picked up Dead Rising 1 & 2 for a retro fix, then tested Where Winds Meet (a free-to-play Chinese RPG), the surprisingly addictive Racoin (a roguelike coin pusher), and the bullet-hell Bird Cage. He’s also slowly working through Final Fantasy VII Remake while planning to jump into Rebirth. • Heather has been deep into Arc Raiders, joined by Leon and theGebs on stream — loving the mix of tension and teamwork. She’s also explored The Simpsons map in Fortnite and picked up Final Vendetta Collector’s Edition at Game & Gear in North Wales.📦 Retro & hardware news:Heather’s pre-ordered the A1200 Mini, a full-sized Amiga remake with HDMI, USB, and 25 built-in classics — a dream come true for retro fans.
