Valve Announces Steam Machine, a New Video-Game Console The US gaming company behind the popular, handheld Steam Deck is making a living-room device for PC games

Valve is making a console. The Steam Machine, a sleek box with the guts of a mid-range PC that runs SteamOS, will arrive in early 2026. Prices TBD, but unlike the failed Steam Machine initiative from a decade ago, this is Valve's own device. Big news www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

I've really been enjoying Ball X Pit. Highly recommended if you like Vampire Survivors.

The biggest ideological difference between Twitter and BlueSky is that for some reason people on BlueSky love baseball

Have I Got Cruise For You

(If I were allowed a second guess, it would be the equally terrible: "Do you want the good cruise, or the bad cruise?")

It's been a year and a half since I launched "Applying For Game Dev Jobs Simulator". It's only gotten worse since then, from what I can tell.

This is fantastic. However, if you'd like some feedback, I feel strongly that the pole in this scenario should visibly be a telephone pole. Thank you.

The RAM on his computer is the MVP of the film, it really keeps up with the amount of software he's juggling. He has so many tabs open.

If you like the idea of watching Ice Cube use Microsoft Teams for 90 minutes, the new "War of the Worlds" movie on Amazon Prime is for you.

I once wrote a collection of short stories about futuristic technology, and none of the speculative ideas I could dream of about the future of transportation were as dumb as "let's put a Hitler-flavoured AI in a car"

Leaving Develop in Brighton early this year, but it has been a pleasure.

There's lots of reasons to be pessimistic about the games industry lately, but I always feel better after spending time with the wonderful humans who are, against all the odds, still making brilliant things.

I'm headed to Develop in Brighton this morning! Only going to be there for around 24 hours this year, so if you wanna say hi, you're going to have to just dive in as soon as you see me. Good news though, I like talking to people from the internet. Let's get to it.

You may be thinking "How can an entire political party be organized around the policy of taking from everyone and giving to the rich? No one would vote for them." Well that's where Lying comes in

Bungie were absolutely cooking in those days - I still find it amazing that the line "I am a monument to all your sins" is from Halo 2, and not like... a classic novel or something.

I reckon either we'll still be working our way through adding roguelike elements to every other genre in history, or it'll be an Outer-Wilds-like.

Alter 1: "We're literally going to die if you don't get this base operational immediately."

Maybe the secret to good writing is "Write one good line, then repeat that process until you've got lots of them."

as a child I thought it was wildly unrealistic that Sims would immediately give up on all their goals and dreams if a single dirty plate was left on the ground but now that I’m an adult I understand that that was the most realistic part of the game
