Rolled credits on Zelda #totk; I think it’s the best game ever made. Truly an incredible artistic and technical accomplishment. Checklist: - 200 Hours - 152 Shrines - 120 Lightroots - 88 Bubbel Gems - 47 Wells - 27 Yiga Schematics / 11 Schema Stone - 13 Sage’s Will - 1 😊

@Genki_JPN 18% or nearly 1 out of 5 sales, is still a major part of the business.

PlayStation report 82% of their game sales are digital! Note: Includes all PS4/PS5 full game software units sold on PlayStation. Including games that are digital only.

@eurogamer Is it possible it might not fit on a disk?

Square Enix can't confirm a Final Fantasy 7 Revelation physical disc, but at least game director Hamaguchi is pushing for one. bit.ly/4g269ZJ

@adammocklerr I think we all know why you would sue to block this. It’s just gross that you would.

WHY WOULD YOU SUE TO BLOCK THIS???

@pcgamer There isn’t anything inherently “wrong” with investing heavily in R&D and it not working out. Experimentation is good. But when it’s just 1 person making those multi billion decisions, we get stupid crap like this.

Meta loses more money on Reality Labs, spending $4.6 billion and only making back $431 million pcgamer.com/hardware/vr-ha…

@mrpyo1 Capitalism is nuts.

I feel this is insane: - Andrew Wilson total money compensation for the year was 38m - Up from 30m the year before - Battlefield was the best selling game in 2025 - Developers get laid off while CEO gets more money Insane world 💀

@Targ_Nation He’s never going to finish it, we should stop expecting it. He doesn’t want to do it. That’s ok, sometimes masterpieces are too difficult for the originator to complete. Like the La Sagrada Familia.

this should've been his 6th year in prison

@GameSpot Drag him, DRAGGGG HIM.

EA CEO Got A Huge Pay Increase While Company Laid Off Devs dlvr.it/TTmN70

@IGN Capitalism is wild

EA’s CEO got an $8 million raise thanks to how well Battlefield 6 performed — four months after the devs responsible for making the game got laid off. bit.ly/4yOMvb5

@IGN The future is going to be great! 😭😭😭

Xbox is soothing fans’ fears around digital ownership following a system-wide outage that reportedly prevented games on physical discs from being played without an internet connection. bit.ly/4hExuSZ

@Genki_JPN In hindsight, closing the studio was absolutely a bad idea. The PS5 doesn’t have nearly enough “exclusives” and JPN Studio had a track record of releasing 2-9 games a year!

Shuhei Yoshida says Japan Studio was closed down because PlayStation wanted AAA games, not AA games, and Japan Studio was unable to scale up “Players from around the world have said that it's unbelievable that Sony would shut down Japan Studio. Japan Studio released loads of games, creative games, didn't it? At that time I was saying something similar.” "At that time, as the head of development, I was worried about [Keiichiro] Toyama [creator of Silent Hill] and the other Japanese developers at Japan Studio. But while they came up with a lot of creative ideas, the games they made weren't big in scale. What we call AA games are a perfect fit for the PlayStation Vita, but we were slowly shifting to AAA on the PS4 and PS5, and sometimes it's difficult to scale up like that." "As a company, PlayStation wanted to drive hardware sales with games like God of War and Uncharted, because that's the kind of game that's in demand. It's hard for Japan Studio to launch a new series on console." He urges players who loved Japan Studio to support the creators that worked there’s new games like Slitterhead and Ratatan. gamesradar.com/games/action/f…

@ChristinaTasty Tim Schafer is Double Fine. It’s a bummer for sure :/

Double Fine could have fired 1 member of staff and miraculously end up in a better financial situation long term, and he's the one who wrote this message.

@jackapots I’m moron and I think this is cool.

Genuinely only a moron could think this is cool

@Vague_Luminary Yes please. 🙏

I WANT AS MANY GAMES ON AS MANY PLATFORMS AS POSSIBLE I WANT THE GAMES I DON'T CARE ABOUT ON THE PLATFORMS I DON'T CARE ABOUT I WANT EVERYONE TO HAVE AS MANY OPTIONS AS POSSIBLE

@TheLastRonin714 Don’t let the internet trolls weigh you down. I’d rather be cringe and fight for what I want. Who cares what randos on X think about you.

Apparently fighting for consumer rights, ownership, and physical games is now “goofy,” “desperate,” and “cringe.” Interesting. When corporations take away choice, history doesn’t mock the people who fought back. It mocks the people who cheered, ridiculed dissent, and called surrender “progress.” Nothing is more cringe than volunteering to be a corporation’s unpaid goofball.

@FrafritoLeBG If I had a business, and someone told me that 20% of my sales were potentially going to be shut off tomorrow. I would be exceptionally worried / upset. Thats really significant in the world of business.

It's not.

@frap9999 @RishiAlwani The math be mathing :)

@GeekYourHrtOut @RishiAlwani Where did you get the 20% from?

🤡

@SWCultureLive +1

Disney needs to greenlight this NOW!
