There's something I find charming about the retro-future aesthetic, perhaps because the actual future is quite boring compared to what was imagined a century ago.

This game looks pretty neat, and seeing the MicroProse logo hits me right in the nostalgia. It brings back memories of the good ol' days playing Gunship and Airborne Ranger on my Commodore 64.

Steam for ChromeOS Chromebooks is being killed off

@wefasdv
Yes, my kids' schools have Chromebooks that they assigned to the students, but my own kids hated them because they were so slow and limited, so they never used them.

This is surprising. Not that Valve is abandoning Steam on Chromebooks but that Chromebooks still exist. I thought Google had already discontinued them.

Massive scale RTS game Ashes of the Singularity II announced for 2026

@tchey

The first one was supposed to be great, but it was not. Not sure why, can't remember well, but it dropped the fun somewhere on the road.

As I recall, it was more benchmark than game, being one of the first major releases to require a multicore CPU.

Super Meat Boy 3D looks fast, tough and enraging in the new gameplay trailer

I don't like it. The 3D graphics are visually confusing. A simple 2D art style is ideal for this kind of game.

Using assets downloaded from the internet in a commercial project is always a bad idea. It's too hard to trace the provenance.

Cyberpunk 2077 2.3 is out with new vehicles, auto drive, AMD FSR 4, Intel XeSS 2 and more

I bought this during the recent Steam sale, and my opinion is that it's good but overrated. After the first few hours, which I really enjoyed, it basically becomes a typical Grand Theft Autio/open world RPG. I think the reason it's praised so highly is because the developers were able to turn it around after its disastrous launch.
