  • It lasted for like…a day. Fucking boo-hoo.

    I’m in a discord server where a couple people I know were freaking out about “OMG TIKTOK DOWN! I WAS GONNA MAKE SOMETHING!” and shit. Then a few hours later, they were cheery it was back on.

    Just in time for people to make even more forgettable brain rot.











  • “According to Matthew Ball’s The State of Video Gaming in 2025 presentation, first spotted by VGC, some developers “hope” the next installment in the GTA franchise will be priced at $80–$100, fully capitalizing on its status as the most anticipated game on the market. This increase, the report suggests, would allow studios to raise the price of their own new games by at least $10 to offset declining player numbers and inflation while justifying the change by pointing to GTA VI’s example.”

    Who the hell are the developers clamoring for this?

    No, what’s going to happen is that, with so many game sales happening every week, people are largely going to wait for the sales axe to come down on GTA VI until it’s affordable. The only people who’d happily buy GTA VI at that price point, are gullible FOMO-pearl-clutching “gamurs”, gaming “journalists”, benchmark nerds and egotistical Day-1 flaunters. That’s about it.

    The moment GTA VI hits a single sale, then most will jump on it.
