Roughly 70 employees will be impacted by the Bluepoint closure. Bluepoint was working on a God of War live-service game until it was canceled early last year. The studio then spent the last year pitching and trying to determine what it would do next. Full story: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Following @aspyr.com using French VO-actress Françoise Cadol's voice without permission for #TombRaider remastered patch, please sign and share to protect VO actors' livelihoods!
We, as fans, demand an apology for all those involved and immediate removal of AI.

Lara Croft as illustrated by Andy Park for the Top Cow comics series, 'Tomb Raider'.
We love @tombraider.com because of the contributions made by great artists.
Using AI to replace their labour, or replicate it without their consent, is unacceptable.
Tomb Raider will not be around for another 30 years if this is the new standard.

🗣️Françoise Cadol, French voice of Lara Croft, was NOT asked to record any new voicelines & did NOT give her consent for any subsequent use of her voice, especially with AI.
She only recently found out about the remasters.
Thanks to OFP members @hedteur.bsky.social & @ssiguss.bsky.social!

GenAI used in this way:
Not cool.
Not classy.
SERIOUSLY @tombraider.com @aspyr.com @sabergames.bsky.social?
In French, the “restored lines” added with Patch 2 in Tomb Raider IV-V-VI Remastered were created using AI by stealing the voice of Françoise Cadol, Lara Croft's French voice, who is totally against this practice!

A stunning figure from the Switch 2's launch: Some 500,000 Switch 2 Pro Controllers sold in the U.S. in June.
Nearly 1 in 3 Switch 2 owners got one.
They sold for $85, after a post-tariff-announcement hike from the original $80 announced price

Latest from me, and I hate to report this, but the Front Mission 3 remake seems to have fed all the 2D images into AI. It looks genuinely terrible, and butchers the visual identity of the original.

The remake of Front Mission 3 is out this week, and the in-universe 'Network' news graphics & photographs have been awkwardly recreated for the re-release, leading to confusing imagery and other nonsense. See for yourself: www.rpgsite.net/news/17799-y...

Nintendo Switch 2 set a new all-time launch week unit sales record for video game hardware in the US, with over 1.1 million units sold during the week ending June 7, 2025 (excludes sales from the My Nintendo Store). The record was previously held by PlayStation 4.

I still think about the Andor episode where:
1. Tay Kolma tells Mon Mothma that he wants more money to keep working for the rebellion.
2. Mon tells Luthen as much & he says that Tay has become a threat that must be eliminated.
3. Cinta takes Tay away to kill him.
Here's the remarkable thing ...

For example, this might look like a setting that allows Bluesky users to specify whether they consent to outside developers using their content in AI training datasets
Bluesky won’t be able to enforce this consent outside of our systems. It will be up to outside developers to respect these settings
Bluesky is an open and public social network, much like websites on the Internet itself. Websites can specify whether they consent to outside companies crawling their data with a robots.txt file, and we’re investigating a similar practice here.
