Widespread generationally bad leadership in the game industry. The worst to ever do it.

This is exactly why I've felt so strongly that physical games must remain an option in the market.

Pokรฉmon and Xbox, Two Old Dogs With the Same Old Tricks - Delayed Input YouTube video by Kyle Bosman

Kyle Bosman's breakdown of yesterday's Project Helix announcement (I guess that counts as an announcement?) is excellent.

Clip starts at my favorite bit, but the whole Xbox portion of the video is well worth a watch, imo.

Folks with prior success are struggling to realize that the game industry has changed completely. It's never going back to how it was. Funding, development, and audiences have all fragmented and that is the "new normal." Only folks who have been scrapping their whole career will weather this change.

Screenshot from LinkedIn. The statement from the CEO is very long but the relevant part is that a) they laid people off and b) there's talk of "overwhelming evidence of organized espionage and corporate sabotage affecting Mindseye" (that's the company's game that came out and did very poorly.

It's got to be some real insult to injury to have your CEO lay you off while blaming conspiracies and corporate espionage after ordering monitoring software to be secretly installed on employee PCs.

Imagine just how good it will feel when that first Shenmue IV teaser drops... it gives us chills just thinking about it. ๐Ÿ’ซ Let's hope we're not too far away from seeing something like this turning up on our news feeds.

(Fanmade teaser created by us, not official in any way!)

So, the fidelity of video games is really high these days and it's not automatic anymore that a live action adaptation will look better or more realistic. This God of War series, based only on the limited sample size of this picture is a perfect example of that point.
