"broke even" would be a """FUN""" thing to become a PR beat because you would all then realize how few games that are of note and are on Best of lists even hit that

Had a big natter with @aggrocrabgames.bsky.social for Vertical Slice about what the studio can offer developers as a publisher and why having a little devil on your should might actually be an EXCELLENT THING. Lots of stuff on community building, transparency, and the death of 100% recoup in here!

Business Insider confirms it: Amazon has warehouses of GPUs that canโ€™t be installed, and is buying them so far in advance that a supply chain team said they โ€œdidnโ€™t have a clear forecasted pathโ€ to installing them. www.businessinsider.com/amazon-220-b...

Ed Zitron@edzitron.com

Free newsletter: I estimate that ~50% of AI chip sales - $200bn to $300bn+ - are sitting in warehouses, with NVIDIA selling hundreds of billions of GPUs years in advance.

Silent Hill Townfall done, agree about its weak points, but I still came out the other side INSPIRED. WHAT A GAME. LOVED IT The ENVIRONMENT DESIGN, the sense of place, the story, the music, MY GOD THE ENVIRONMENT DESIGN! The love and care in this game, overflowing. THIS SHIT MEANS SOMETHING TO ME!

It's so easy to be cynical about games having lived and breathed them for so long, hell my mortgage relies on them, but sometimes a team just makes it feel like magic again. It can be frustrating, but more often it wisked me away and had me engrossed. Now off to read about European company towns.
