In my PS5 diary I've got: Darkest Dungeon 2, mid July Black Myth WuKong, end of August Space Marine 2 early September.
Quietly excited about that little lot.

Yeah Capes looked interesting, like a spiritual successor to Freedom Force.

I picked this up on cdkeys for a few quid and I'm really liking it. It's a bit like Resident Evil 7, but with puppets.

I can’t remember the last EA game I played. Was either Battlefield 1 or that Unraveled(?). I can’t say I’ll be remotely fussed, but if takes off I can see every sports game having this. Perhaps even every GTA loading screen when playing online.
I think, depressingly, this idea will take off. Then they can get you to subscribe to their online services to have them removed again.

That's my fear too. We've seen it in games before, and I've seen some people say they wouldn't mind it if it's inobtrusive like a billboard ala Burnout Paradise. Sod that, any ad is obtrusive by its very nature.
If anything I'm surprised Microsoft haven't been the first to go for it with Game Pass given how subscription services have increasingly rolled out an ad tier.

This isn't really new for EA tbf. Need for Speed has had ads as billboards as did BF Hardline in the same way. It all depends on how they're done really. If they're presented as billboards then while I hate this direction that gaming has gone down it would be the most tolerable but if it was like between loading screens or more dystopian as in just littered around the menus or full ad breaks then yeah that would be something else.

I'd argue that you shouldn't give them ideas, but I'm pretty sure this ad thingy is already in the works...

Sure they are looking at how ads are done on ad tier of netflix, prime etc I can see them doing with gamepass as well (so you have to watch streaming ad or you pay extra £4 a month)
and you know what, some gamers will defend it

Square Enix the latest studios to have job cuts. European and US offices. Same day they announced moving away from any console exclusivity.

They released so many RPGs in the last 3 years. They almost saturated that market by themselves. They do need to scale back or stagger their releases.

I'm about 90 hours into my first play through of Captain on Industry now and it's amazing how lost you can get in building production lines.
I've planned out a cracking advanced diesel station and terraformed the land with a brilliant place for it to go, unfortunately that overlapped with my existing diesel plant so I just ripped it down. Bad idea. I just didn't estimate my rubber needs and now e-v-e-r-ything has ground to a halt.
Except I was oblivious to all the alerts as I was just finishing up a brand new sour water stripping setup.
Death spiral it is then.

Wow. from your writeup and from screenshot and steam description this game could also be called "F*** you, Greenpeace" still early access and 90h already? Seems they are delivering well!

Seems they are delivering well! all jokes aside it does start off very much 'f*** you greenpeace', literally burning trees and dirty oil distilleries. I like this game because it not just throwing more resources at green or red circuits but scaling via more advanced versions of existing processes with additional inputs and now handling the waste outputs. Also, who doesn't like little diggers carving giant quarries into the countryside

It has been 9 years since Witcher 3 was released.
Since then it went through lots of upgrades and changes.
For pc users there is tons of great mods expanding the game, changing combat, adding quests.
Is anyone still playing?

I've been meaning to give it another go, but too many big games in the backlog.

I finished it three tims, including on the highest difficulty setting, it was just that good.
Also pretty ballsy of them to release on the same week as the Elden Ring DLC.

Well now. I wonder if the license will allow them to grab a big slice of the pie. EA Sports FC in the end was about as successful as the previous FIFA games, though I'm guessing it was partly because nobody really cares about Konami's game anymore.
