Def a great surprise hit. Obviously the pandemic catapulted it but it would have taken off either way, IMO. I remember the first time I played it as a "Mental Health Break" at my last agency -- then it became a weekly thing.

What were Steam's most unexpected successes of the last 2 years? Also: plenty of news, and this week's notable Steam debuts analyzed.

Cool @gamediscoverco.bsky.social piece on Steam’s “unexpected” successes: Webfishing, Nubby’s Number Factory, + that blew up after launch.

Reminder early metrics ≠ destiny. Definitely resonates looking at ARC Raiders, once it was in players’ hands...🚀

Felicidades!

BREAKING: Ubisoft is canceling the Prince of Persia: Sands of Time remake and 5 other games (4 unannounced, 1 mobile). The company says it is also delaying 7 games (including an unannounced project believed to be a Black Flag remake) as part of a larger restructuring.

OMG, watching Kathy Hilton play Wheel of Fortune is

ICE doin' what ICE does best: fucking up lives for absolutely no fucking reason.

A friend in Minneapolis just sent me this video. Looks like thousands have come together for a vigil after an ICE agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. This was my neighborhood for several years before coming to Portland.

We Interview Troy Baker. Could we see video game actors on Jimmy Fallon? The acting legend on making his own game, AI, working with indies, and replacing fear with trust

Avatar: Frontiers Of Pandora Got A Major Player-Count Boost After Fire And Ash The Ubisoft-developed game reached a new peak after the release of an expansion tie-in to the blockbuster movie.

Interesting news today on @gamespot.com on how the movie (Hollywood) industry impacts our games industry through the example of @ubisoft.com's Avatar getting a bump. This along with @dringo.bsky.social's chat with #TroyBaker on Voice Actors/games on late night.

Noooooooooooo! #juryduty

I need to get into this one myself. I am a semi-completionist so part of me wants to start with CV1, but what do you think?

Wow, I just had #Verizon call me back 2 try and change my scores on the post-customer service call noting that it would be a failing score for their rep (4 out of 5, btw with 5 being excellent). I've never experienced a company calling back to try to guilt me and justifying their poor service. Yikes

Over 25M visits to Stella Montis and over 25K Matriarchs eliminated?! What? Damn raiders be busy. I mean, I just look at a Matriarch in the distance and I am like "nah" -- at least for now. Congrats @arcraiders.bsky.social and raiders!!!

Valve reveals new Steam Machine, its next attempt at a PC-console hybrid Valve's next attempt at a gaming PC for your living room arrives next year.

Steam Deck, Steam Machine, Steam on PC or just stick to console? So many choices. I will say, I’ve been leaning towards a PC handheld so that I may play games on Steam, but now I have to rethink. @valvesoftware.com @polygon.com www.polygon.com/valve-new-ha...

I need to get into this one myself. I do love me a good story but often narrative-heavy games aren't my thing so glad to see that the combat is also mentioned as a positive in your review @mikemurf2.bsky.social. Plus the art style is gorgina! 🤩

ARC Raiders Review

With polished gunplay and an irresistible grind, ARC Raiders sets a new standard for extraction shooters.

Our review:

‘Peaky Blinders’ Enters the Metaverse via The Sandbox This is the first time “Peaky Blinders” is in a metaverse gaming experience.

I've yet to see #PeakyBlinders myself, but I know there are a lot of fans out there -- mostly because there were several PB costumes this year at Halloween! lol If you are fan, go check out this experience on @thesandboxgame.bsky.social www.licenseglobal.com/metaverse/-p...

Hey Raiders, here are some tips from #EmbarkStudios... although with the amount of people playing this might be better to share with the newbies going topside for the first time! @arcraiders.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=fEha...

I was hoping that the portal would help me see the light on portable / handheld gaming but I still prefer the console/TV experience more. But, the news that came with the 6.0 update does have me curious and ready to jump back in using the portal this weekend. @playstation.com thanks for the update!

Nintendo Wants A Steady Release Of New Movies Nintendo plans an "ongoing release" schedule for movies going forward.

We all have a love-hate relationship w Hollywood & how they handle video game movies, but I’m still hopeful & honestly a little excited to see more pubs/devs lean into film

Nintendo teasing more movies? I’m cautiously hype… pero con miedo 👀
