If you like #Android and have an #ARM Mac I suppose you’ll be hyped to hear about the new #Apple Silicon compatible versions of #BlueStacks. So now you can play all those games being advertised on TV by movie and TV stars. whee. #videogames #emulation #macOS 9to5mac.com/2025/05/0…
Well, this is just more stupid #capitalism at work. I guess I’ll have to now unsub from #Polygon’s RSS feeds. Generic corporate villain #Valnet has laid off most of the masthead. So, so stupid. Do the new owners really think people will stick around for AI slop? #videogames kotaku.com/polygon-s…
How gross. #Putin and #Russia really stretching to capture more treasure to fund his personal conquest to restore the CCCP. Not ironic at all that his criminality is what made Russia into a now former “Super Power”. #politics #videogames #authoritarianism www.engadget.com/gaming/ru…
WTF is #Blizzard doing?! Apparently hackers have been exploiting #Starcraft2 to spring clips of actual mass shootings and videos designed to trigger epileptic seizures, as well as other disturbing content, on unsuspecting players for at least A YEAR!! #videogames #terrorism kotaku.com/starcraft…
Thanks, #tariffs. #Anbernic has suspended US-bound shipments of their #retro #handhelds. You can still purchase any device that is already at a US warehouse, but that stock will run dry after a while, and no new devices will be arriving for now. #videogames liliputing.com/anbernic-…

If you’ve never seen #Floor796, prepare to be amazed. A single artist, in their free time, has been creating an enormous, tile-based animated #GIF filled with all manner of characters from all manner of media. They’ve just added a new tile today. #animation #art #creatives #ZeroAI floor796.com
I don’t know if I’ve shared much of Max Derrat’s work here, but this is fascinating if you’re interested in Eastern #philosophy as it relates to #VideoGames. In today’s episode, he discusses #FromSoftware’s #Sekiro. The connections are amazing. #StayYellow www.youtube.com/watch
LOLZ. First watch this #Nintendo #SNES commercial from 1991 starring Paul Rudd, then watch the new one for the #Switch2 where he reprises his role and actually speaks! #videogames #youtube

So, it seems that #Netease, the makers of the wildly popular #MarvelRivals live service team shooter might be prepping for a #Nintendo #Switch2 port and is testing an experimental Switch Shader Compilation Mode. It depends on how you read it, I suppose. #videogames
While it remains unknown what technology #Nintendo has developed for the new #Switch2 #JoyCons, it is crystal clear that they have done everything in their power to prevent another stick drift debacle. And yet Mario’s Dad won’t confirm what, so we’ll have to wait. #videogames www.theverge.com/news/6444…
