Here are the six nominees for 2023 GOTY at The Game Awards, in one of the best years for gaming ever.
While Take-Two is riding high on their announcement that a GTA 6 trailer is coming, its CEO has some…interesting ideas on how much video games could cost, part of a contingent of executives that believe games are underpriced, given their cost, length or some combination of the two.
While most everyone loves Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, there seems to be universal derision for the final suit that Miles Morales wears in the game. Out of dozens of options, it’s another one of his “I gotta be me” designs that is just…very not good.
It appears Bungie has done the unthinkable and laid off Michael Salvatori, Destiny’s famed composer responsible for countless incredible tracks in franchise history.
This week, it’s Alan Wake 2, which has released and scored an 89 on Metacritic, a tick below a 90, but a 92 if you’re looking on PC where its visuals can be maxed to their fullest.
Sony’s PlayStation is extremely good at two things: Making a console people want to buy, and having its devs make great single players games for that console.
As it turns out, developer Embark Studios is using AI for essentially all the voicework in The Finals.

Just when I was giving Bungie credit for taking Destiny 2 armor out of Eververse this season and making it an earned, in-game reward, we now have a situation I’d describe as pretty baffling.
I haven’t played D4 in over a month. There’s a lot of work to be done before I play more than the upcoming seasonal content.
When the review embargo first dropped, Starfield was sitting at something like an 88 on Xbox and an 89 on PC. Not 90+ the way I think Bethesda may have been hoping, and yet still extremely good.
Bethesda has just published a new blog post detailing updates coming to Starfield in the short and long term, including a ton of popular requests, most of them on the technical side, initially.
Starfield's maps are not defensible, but fans are already starting to fix them.
Some interesting stuff here, including links to more studies showing similar results in different countries....
