007 First Light gets a 4/5 from me. The brawling is naff and I have absolutely no idea why Lenny Kravitz is in this game, but it's easily the best Bond video game in YEARS with its mix of stealth and improvisational action. My review: mirror.co.uk/gaming/007-fir…

On the cusp of 007 First Light's launch next week, here's my chat with senior combat designer Tom Marcham on how IO went about making Bond a badass. youtu.be/qaTMV7XckU4?si…

the zone of interest is a film about the idyllic, everyday life of an Auschwitz commandant and his wife, who raise their children in a home located directly adjacent to the concentration camp. below is an unrelated photo showing Gaza from an israeli settlement.

Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced, then. It's good. Real good. Even if it probably doesn't need to exist. My thoughts after three hours: mirror.co.uk/gaming/assassi…

It has plenty of problems, but my hot take is that I enjoyed Bubsy 4D wayyyy more than Yoshi and the Mysterious Book. Sue me! mirror.co.uk/gaming/bubsy-4…

Scraping websites and having AI summarize them, so that no one visits the websites, is theft. Training AI on videos, so that it can make new videos that compete with them, is theft. We are witnessing the largest theft of creative work in history.

FYI, DuckDuckGo not only allows you to totally disable AI summaries but also allows you to filter out AI images.

Fun chat w friends!

We've reached the point in the UK where working full time doesn't actually mean anything anymore. It used to mean stability. It used to mean you could afford a home, eat properly, maybe go away once a year and not panic if your car made a weird noise. Now it just means nothing. You wake up early, work all day, come home tired, and still somehow sit there wondering how you're going afford everything. Rent is ridiculous. Bills are constant. Food prices change depending on the mood of the supermarket. And wages? Basically frozen in time. You're not lazy. You're not bad with money. You're just trying to survive in a system where everything goes up except what you get paid.
