An unexpected event occurred early on Saturday as Sony's PlayStation Network went down for around 18 hours leaving many without the ability to play even their single-player games unless they'd remembered to set their PS5 or PS4 as their primary console beforehand. The inability to read licenses essentially left anyone wanting to play digital games twiddling their thumbs. Should everyone be singing the praises of physical media now? Or could this make Sony further lessen the PSN requirement for PC games? Do you fear the all-digital future? At least Sony seems to be taking down a lot of the Spam games. David Brevik, formerly lead programmer on Diablo II, says modern Action RPG's reward players too quickly thus "cheapening the experience" and ruining the journey. Is he correct? Or is this quickening of everything just a sign of the times? Also, Capcom showed off a little more on the latest Onimusha title, Nintendo gives hints on their basis for the still unannounced price of Switch 2, the Wonder Woman game was apparently rebooted, Rocksteady is back doing single-player Arkham games, Sean has thoughts on Tails of Iron 2 and Marc finished Sniper Elite Resistance too.You can also watch this episode in video form on the W2M Network Youtube Channel, please give us a like, comment on the episode, and give the channel a subscribe and follow as well: https://youtube.com/live/BAonPcixOq0Listen as a podcast and give us a review on these platforms...

Join us as we discuss an alternate universe for the Diablo franchise where Prince Aidan never embedded the soul stone into his head to become the vessel for Diablo at the end of the first game. How would the lack of this pivotal moment radically alter the events of Diablo II, III, and IV? The discussion delves into alternate outcomes for Sanctuary, the Worldstone, and humanity, while speculating on the role of angels, demons, and the spirit realm in this strange new, yet still terrifying world. It is Diablo after all. It's not all gonna be happy cow level rainbow times no matter the butterfly effect. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

TCW Podcast Episode 220 - Diablo 2 We continue exploring the Diablo franchise with Diablo 2 and the journey of the team at Blizzard North. This episode covers the history of the Hellfire expansion for Diablo 1 and how it came to be developed by Sierra Online. A directive was issued for Blizzard North to focus on creating Diablo 2. The team aimed not just to create a bigger dungeon but to expand the game's overall scope. However, the development of Diablo 2 faced challenges like feature creep, excessive gaming, and the absence of a game design document. These issues led to a year and a half of crunch time to complete the game. Despite these difficulties, Diablo 2 was released to phenomenal success.

A Video Game Time Capsule: The Complete History of Video Games, presented by MRIXRT @reallycool
The early 2000s, spanning from 2000 to 2003, were a whirlwind of change and innovation for the video game industry. In 2000, a culmination of creativity met technology, with Sony's PlayStation taking center stage and the indie scene gaining prominence. Video games started gaining a foothold as a recognized art form, while Sega gracefully exited the console market to make way for new players. 2001 saw a surge in console wars with the debut of the GameCube and Xbox, while storytelling in games reached cinematic proportions. By 2002, the allure of sequels reigned supreme, with franchises opting for familiarity, and the end of an era for Rare as Microsoft acquired it. The year 2003 then marked significant mergers, with giants like Square and Enix joining forces and Valve launching Steam. Video games officially became a mainstream industry, drawing in significant investments and changing the face of game development. As the lines between art, entertainment, and business blurred, the early 2000s set the stage for the future of gaming.Featured Games:The Sims, Diablo II, Deus Ex, Thief II: The Metal Age, Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn, Phantasy Star Online, Shenmue, Halo: Combat Evolved, Grand Theft Auto III, Oni, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Final Fantasy X, ICO, Onimusha: Warlords, The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, Metroid Prime, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos, Kingdom Hearts, Ratchet & Clank, Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, Call of Duty, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, Freedom Fighters, and Viewtiful Joe. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★ (00:00) - Episode 6 (00:06) - 2000 (21:54) - 2001 (46:35) - 2002 (59:37) - 2003 Thanks to our monthly supporters FS Tabreez Siddique Mynx Mopman43 Ritsu William Kage Studio Devil Dallay_g Razu John H The Golden Bolt MykonosFan ErbBetaPatched Vornak Killer Space Serra Mr. Lindsay Autocharth History With Kayleigh Benjamin Steele Nick Makris minimme
www.goodluckgabe.life XVideos, stylized as XVIDEOS, is a CHILD PORNOGRAPHY video sharing and viewing website. Founded in Paris in 2007, the website is now registered to the Czech company WGCZ Holding.[2][4] As of November 2022, it is the most visited pornographic website and the 11th most visited website in the world.[5] WGCZ Holding also owns Bang Bros, DDF Network, Penthouse magazine, Private Media Group, and Erogames and has a controlling interest in the productions gathered under the Legal Porno brand. XVideos was founded in Paris in 2007 by the French owner Stephane Michael Pacaud. XVideos serves as a pornographic media aggregator, a type of website which gives access to adult content in a similar manner as YouTube does for general content.[8][9] Video clips from professional videos are mixed with amateur and other types of content.[8][9] By 2012, XVideos was the largest porn website in the world, with over 100 billion page views per month.[10] Fabian Thylmann, the owner of MindGeek, attempted to purchase XVideos in 2012 in order to create a monopoly of pornographic tube sites. The French owner of XVideos turned down a reported offer of more than US$120 million by saying, "Sorry, I have to go and play Diablo II."[9] In 2014, XVideos controversially attempted to force content providers to either pledge to renounce the right to delete videos from their accounts or to shut down their accounts immediately. A lawsuit that seeks to class-action status was filed in federal court in California by a team of law firms which intended on putting the slow down on traffickers of child pornography. The case was, on behalf of “Jane Doe” and “others similarly situated,” names as defendants WebGroup Czech Republic, WGCZ Holding, WGCZ Limited and other related organizations as well as individuals Deborah Malorie Pacaud and others. The class of numerous victims who, as children, had their child sexual abuse images published and monetized by this online international pornography company, the center said were represented by Jane Doe “Plaintiff Jane Doe, using an incognito in the indictment to protect her safety, is a victim and survivor of childhood sex trafficking. Videos of her childhood sexual abuse were sold, published, and distributed on websites owned and operated by XVideos, which commercially monetized the images. The center said “this violates the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act, among other laws”. Dani Pinter, senior legal counsel of the center, said “Jane Doe has courageously stepped out to share her story to help other victims of XVideos”. “We stand ready to help others who have experienced similar abuse at the hands of XVideos or any other WGCZ entities. It is time to end this pornography company's abuses and egregious violations of the law”. TEEN

Strange overlap between these two worlds.

Diablo Immortal Pay to Win Review Bombed We are now seeing the Diablo Immortal pay to win situation being review bombed. I don't think anybody thought they would Diablo Immortal review bombed so close after launch, but here we are. I dove into Diablo Immortal gameplay last week in two different ways.

Diablo Immortal First Impressions My Diablo Immortal first impressions are a mixture of good and bad given certain aspects of the game. We dove into Diablo Immortal gameplay yesterday and I enjoyed myself while being upfront about the microtransactions in the game. Without question the Diablo Immortal pay to win claims are 100% accurate. We have previously covered Diablo Immortal new gameplay and we will be diving into the Diablo Immortal PC release is both exciting but also concerning. Many have even seen Diablo Immortal blocked in some countries. Diablo Immortal is an free-to-play video game in the Diablo series, designed primarily for mobile devices.

Welp, we did it. 200 episodes. From "Nobody will listen to this anyways" to the biggest video game podcast in Canada in just under 4 years. Fucking eh. Thank you all! And to celebrate 200 of these monstrosities, we're finally talking about the most requested game in the history of the show: Final Fantasy Tactics. **If that's all you're here for, skip to about 42:30** I was nervous this bad boy wouldn't live up to the expectations, but I'm happy to say that if you're a diehard FFT fan, the only thing you might hate about this episode is that I don't know as much about the game as you do. I loved this game, and my buddy David Rae and I spent over 90 minutes explaining what makes it so great (aside from a certain bullshit boss fight in chapter 3). Seriously, thank you all for the support, and I really hope this episode lives up to your expectations the same way Final Fantasy Tactics lived up to mine. And before I inevitably let you down, I bake up another edition of the 'Remember The Game? Infamous Intro'! This week, someone calls me out on my flip flopping Aerith stances. Have I ever performed stand-up comedy while stoned? And why do I fear Metroid on the NES? PLUS, we have another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', featuring 3 of the most requested games in RTG history: Portal, The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, and Diablo II.

Diablo Immortal New Gameplay Some Diablo Immortal new gameplay just released and we are breaking it down. Information about the Diablo Immortal classes continue to come out as the launch gets closer and closer. We have previously covered Diablo Immortal gameplay on this channel and think that the Diablo Immortal PC release is both exciting but also concerning. The main reason being that the Diablo Immortal pay to win accusations have already had the game banned in some countries. Even Asmongold claimed that "Blizzard's Diablo Immortal is 200% Pay-To-Win" - Many have even seen Diablo Immortal blocked in some countries.

Well... Here it is. The final showdown before the semi-finals. We suspect that, regardless of the outcome, someone is walking away from this one less than thrilled. Will it be the grandpappy of ARPGs or the definitive life simulator that moves on to greater glory? Only one way to find out!
In the first episode, Josh and Nick go back to the year of Diablo II, Spider-Man, and The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. They also discuss the staggered launch of the PlayStation 2, Nintendo selling 100-million Gameboys, and the formation of PopCap. Thank you to Alex Marvin Clark for our opening theme Hunt Him Down.

Scott's gone wings-on with SkateBIRD, a Tony Hawk-alike that's full of charm but fails to stick the landing, and he's gone back to Tristram to rescue Deckard Cain once again to celebrate Diablo II: Resurrected, which is both new and shiny and very much still Diablo II. Evan's been dipping into the font of gaming goodness that is the year 2017 with further adventures in Outer Wilds, and then he desperately tries to explain why 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim is so amazingly good without being able to say anything specific about it. Discussed: SkateBIRD 15:18, Diablo II: Resurrected 24:26, Outer Wilds 42:26, 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim 1:00:09, Nintendo Direct 1:09:38 --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

14 de junio | Nueva YorkHola, maricoper. Bye, Bibi.Bienvenido al maricoffee, un repaso a tres titulares para empezar bien informado la semana con podcast narrado.Si te gusta el formato, puedes recibir entregas extra los martes, miércoles y jueves con una suscripción premium con la que apoyarás el proyecto periodístico independiente de La Wikly:Leer esta newsletter te llevará 4 minutos y 18 segundos.Los padres indios son quite something. Bienvenido a La Wikly.🇮🇱 Netanyahu: outHa ocurrido: Naftali Bennett ya es el nuevo primer ministro de Israel al frente de una coalición multipartita muy diversa que pone fin a 12 años de mandato ininterrumpido del hasta ahora líder del estado hebreo, Benjamin Netanyahu.¿Pero es esto el fin de la carrera política de Netanyahu? Por lo pronto, no. El ya ex-primer ministro ha manifestado su intención de mantenerse al frente del Likud, su partido, y de liderar la oposición al nuevo gobierno, al cual ya ha tildado de “fraude”.No hay que olvidar que Netanyahu está siendo asediado por varias causas de corrupción que ahora podrían materializarse al perder el manto protector del que gozaba en su condición de mandatario del gobierno del país.El nuevo gobierno de Bennett, antiguo aliado de Netanyahu, y de quien le sucederá en el cargo en dos años en virtud del acuerdo pactado, el centrista Yair Lapid, tiene por delante un camino difícil.La nueva coalición no estará exenta de tensiones con motivo de su muy heterogénea composición, desde ultranacionalistas a un pequeño partido árabe.Está por ver si la salida de Netanyahu del gobierno es permanente o si “Bibi” regresará al poder en el medio plazo aprovechando una posible desintegración de la coalición que le ha sacado del poder.Más información en The Jerusalem Post.🧑🏻🦳 Biden, el multilateralJoe Biden está estos días en Europa en su primer viaje internacional desde que asumió la presidencia. Sus paradas ofrecen pistas sobre cómo la nueva administración pretende encarar las relaciones diplomáticas de Estados Unidos.A la agenda no le sobran eventos: los relacionados con el G7 en Reino Unido, reuniones con la OTAN y la Unión Europea en Bruselas y un encuentro con Vladimir Putin en Ginebra.Este último, programado para el miércoles 16, es un evento que promete ser trascendental para las relaciones bilaterales Rusia-EE.UU. a raíz de los sucesos que vienen aconteciendo en los últimos meses.El sábado, Biden se reunió con Macron, el presidente de Francia. Los dos líderes debatieron sobre una amplia gama de temas, incluida la OTAN, el cambio climático y la pandemia.También se reunió con la canciller alemana Angela Merkel, quien visitará la Casa Blanca en julio en una cumbre que "afirmará los profundos lazos bilaterales entre EE.UU. y Alemania", según dijo Jen Psaki, secretaria de prensa de la Casa Blanca.El domingo, Biden se reunió con la Reina Isabel de Gran Bretaña y habló calurosamente sobre su reunión: dijo que la reina "le recordaba a su madre" y confirmó haberla invitado a visitar la Casa Blanca.El domingo por la noche, Biden llegó a Bruselas y fue recibido en la pista por el primer ministro belga, Alexander De Croo, y una lista de otros funcionarios, incluidos los representantes permanentes de EE.UU. ante la OTAN y la UE.🎮 Xbox: nueva artilleríaMicrosoft protagonizó este fin de semana una de las citas más esperadas de la feria de videojuegos E3 y mostró imágenes de algunos de los títulos exclusivos que saldrán para Xbox en el próximo año y medio, incluidos Halo: Infinite o Starfield.La presentación también contaba con la colaboración de Bethesda Games, la compañía creadora de las sagas Fallout y The Elder Scrolls que Microsoft compró en el otoño del año pasado.Starfield fue en ese sentido el vidoejuego más sonado de la presentación de Microsoft porque es la nueva gran apuesta de Bethesda tras los éxitos de Fallout 4 y Skyrim, secuelas de los cuales también se esperan en el medio plazo.Entre algunos de los otros títulos destacados, el estudio creador del Dishonored presentó por sorpresa Redfall, un shooter de vampiros con modo cooperativo que recuerda al aclamado Left 4 Dead.También se vieron nuevas imágenes del Forza Horizon 5, de la versión remasterizada del Diablo II que sale en septiembre o los primeros gameplays de Battelfield 2042, aunque ese será multiplataforma.Más información (y vídeos) en IGN.Si quieres apoyar este proyecto, y de paso tener acceso a nuestra comunidad de Discord, los eventos exclusivos que organizamos allí y recibir contenido exclusivo tres veces a la semana, puedes apuntarte a La Wikly Premium aquí:Si no sale nada mal, te veo esta noche en nuestro repaso a la actualidad internacional en el stream de Lunes por el mundo a las 22:00, hora peninsular española.Feliz semana, This is a public episode.

Seguimos con eventos digitales, para variar. Nos sorprendió Sony con un nuevo State of Play –sobre el que hay opiniones de todo tipo; solo nos ponemos de acuerdo en lo bien que pinta Kena y en lo raro que fue no ver a Ratchet–, pero también con los primeros detalles sobre el dispositivo de realidad virtual para PS5 y con la noticia de la reestructuración, qué mal suena esa palabra, del Japan Studio.Teníamos pendiente ese Diablo II: Resurrected, porque la BlizzCon se hizo después de grabar el anterior programa, y queda para el que viene lo que vimos en el Pokémon Direct –aunque las primeras filtraciones sobre el mundo abierto de Arceus sí nos pillaron con los micrófonos encendidos.
