So, GFA Games is a brand new team, and this is their first game! Their recent roadmap looks really promising for the near future, though it’s hard to say what things will look like long-term right now. I’m excited to see where they go with it!
Riot Games announced that in-game item sales from this year’s tournaments brought in an impressive $86 million, according to their annual competitive overview.
You know how sometimes a game just takes over everything, and it feels like nothing else is even happening? That’s happened to a few games I really love. When bigger titles came out around the same time, they kinda got lost in the shuffle, and people didn’t really notice them at first. But honestly, it’s not just that. Luckily, a lot of these older games, especially JRPGs, have gotten remasters, which is awesome because it let me and a lot of other fans rediscover them. And even though they’re technically old now, they still play really well and are totally worth checking out!
Several companies from various industries – like traditional sports, media, and entertainment – are reportedly interested in buying the asset.
Meanwhile, in the shadowy world of energy, an insatiable beast awakens: AI data demand! The Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT, or as I like to call it, the “Energy Riddle Committee of Texas”) reports a monstrous surge in large-load requests-jumping from a modest 63 GW to a staggering 226 GW. And guess what? Three-quarters of this chaos is courtesy of those ever-hungry data centers, shoveling data faster than a lazy waiter in a cheap restaurant. 🍽️📊

Set to come out in March 2026, Project Hail Mary is a movie based on the 2021 book of the same name by Andy Weir, the author of The Martian. Starring Ryan Gosling, it’s a science fiction story about Dr. Ryland Grace, a former biologist, who is tasked with saving Earth. Scientists discover the Sun is quickly losing brightness, which would cause a global ice age in just 30 years. This dimming is also happening to other nearby stars, except for one. Dr. Grace is sent on a one-way mission—starting with him in an induced coma—to investigate this unusual star and send back any information that could save the planet using robotic probes.
Researchers have developed a new end-to-end verifiable e-voting protocol designed to withstand the threat of quantum computers and ensure secure, transparent elections.
Ideally, games should make you feel like the hero. But these games cleverly hide the fact that you’re actually the bad guy. They do this in various ways – sometimes by simplifying the story and characters, and other times by keeping you focused on other goals so you don’t realize what’s really happening. Ultimately, while you think you’re saving the world, you’re likely destroying it.
