Was Copilot AI on Xbox ever actually wanted by anyone? 🤔 New Xbox CEO Asha Sharma just answered that question by killing it entirely halting console development and winding it down on mobile. In just a few months she's scrapped a bad ad campaign, fixed Game Pass, and now axed forced AI integration. Something is genuinely shifting at Xbox.

Arc Raiders had serious momentum after launch. Frequent updates. Steady player counts. Real goodwill.🎮 Then Riven Tides hit. Steam reviews dropped to "Mixed." Balance complaints exploded. And now the design director just told GamesRadar+ that Embark is "still learning" how to tune PvE and PvP to feel fair and rewarding. That's not a reassurance. That's a confession.

How does a game go from "Overwatch killer" hype to "Mixed" Steam reviews in under two years? 🤔 Marvel Rivals launched as lightning in a bottle and now it's drowning in matchmaking complaints, performance issues, and a ballooning file size.

Valve confirmed the Steam Controller restock is coming but won't say when. Just that a "timeline" is coming "soon." 😤 Not the restock. A timeline for the timeline. Meanwhile scalpers already have units listed at marked-up prices online. The most in-demand controller Valve has made in years and this is how it goes. #SteamController #Valve

Is GTA 6 skipping PC at launch actually a smart move or is Rockstar just leaving hundreds of millions of dollars on the table? 🤔 Take-Two's CEO just defended the console-first strategy directly, and honestly? His reasoning is harder to argue with than most PC players want to admit. #GTA6

@joelvrr46 I hope so too 👍

@TheDailyQuest0 I hope they lower their token prices a little in Latam Argentina because they are very expensive to buy more taxes in the country it is very complicated to buy skins etc.

Arc Raiders had a rough week. Riven Tides dropped. Crossplay broke entirely. Steam reviews swung to "Mixed." Players started comparing Embark to the Helldivers 2 dev team. 💀 Now Embark is making a quiet but meaningful move regional pricing adjustments going live globally, with noticeable drops in India, Colombia, and Indonesia. One problem at a time. #ArcRaiders

Players noticed something in Dispatch. Invisigal had more scenes. More emotional beats. More vulnerability. The party dancing moment hit way harder for her than for Blonde Blazer. And fans started asking did the devs pick a favorite? 💜 The co-founder just responded directly, and his explanation is actually really thoughtful. This is how narrative design should be talked about. #Dispatch

How do you post an AI-generated selfie, get roasted into oblivion, and then claim the WHOLE POINT was to show AI is absurd? 🤔 That's exactly what Gearbox boss Randy Pitchford just did — and the timing couldn't have been worse. Borderlands fans were ALREADY accusing the studio of using AI in their patch notes when the selfie dropped. #Borderlands

How does Valve launch a brand new Steam Controller, sell out almost instantly, AND break checkout for thousands of buyers all in the same hour? 😤 Payment errors. Inventory vanishing mid-checkout. Delivery windows pushed from 3 days to 10. The most chaotic hardware launch in recent memory just happened. #SteamController #Valve
