The Quake 2 AI demo's poor performance, sloppy graphics, and major issues like disappearing enemies have led many to question if AI-generated games are ready for prime time. Despite flaws, the demo's ability to dynamically generate gameplay sequences is seen as a glimpse of the future and a step towards more immersive experiences. AI-generated games are replacing human developers and disrupting the gaming industry, sparking universal negative criticism on social media. Phil Spencer's suggestion to use AI for game preservation and ports has caused outrage among game developers who argue AI lacks the essential quirks and interactions of classic games. Austin Walker counters that AI is not preserving games but creating new experiences based on old ones, asserting that emulators and ROMs remain superior for preservation. Critics argue AI-generated games will never replicate the complexity and nuance of human-created games, relegating them to second-best status.

A mere UI leak has given birth to many conspiracies on Xbox's potential gameplan to get PlayStation games on their hardware. With the inclusion of Steam tag on the Xbox PC App, it has opened the door for many to wonder if this all inclusive platform is part of Xbox's next generation vision. Naturally, Steam on a next generation Xbox device brings with it a lot of business related questions. How does Xbox make any money at all from Steam games purchased on their hardware? Do they even care about that? Will Xbox's storefront and unified ecosystem be enough to give them an edge when their games are everywhere? The Dukes dive into this plus your many questions on the subject!

In this week's Gaming Fun Fact we explore the world of ridiculous collector's editions. Both the Saint's Row IV: Super Dangerous Wad Wad Edition (aka The Million Dollar Pack) and Dying Light's "My Apocalypse" Edition made headlines in their day, but there's one unexpected mention that made multiple lists online.Microsoft may have accidentally given us a first look at Steam on Xbox after they briefly posted an image of a new Xbox UI across multiple devices sporting some Steam labelling. Soon afterwards the images were removed without comment. What does this mean for the new Xbox handheld? What about the Xbox app on PC?Phil Spencer says that more movie and TV show adaptations are on the way despite the failure of the Halo series. This may come as no surprise to some as the Fallout adaptation has captivated fans and has a much anticipated season 2 in progress.Assassin's Creed Shadows has crossed one million players on launch day. The latest entry into the AC series has been surrounded by controversy, anger, happiness, and anticipation (a rollercoaster to say the least). But it seems that the game is off to a great start with Ubisoft's brief player number update, via social media.

In today's Daily Fix:Microsoft may have accidentally leaked a mockup of how the Steam UI would look on Xbox. Via the Verge, the image was taken down soon after, but this adds more speculation to Microsoft's future Xbox plans and possible integration with Steam, Epic Games Store, and more. Xbox head Phil Spencer has already voiced support for letting gamers play their Steam library on Xbox consoles. In other news, Assassin's Creed Shadows is topping the charts after just one day since being released. According to Ubisoft, the game has seen 1 million players across all available platforms. Of course, sales data is not yet available, but the game is also riding high off strong critic and user reviews. And finally, co-op hit Split Fiction's success is catching the eye of Hollywood, and now a package is being put together to shop an adaptation to the big studios.

In today's Daily Fix:Assassin's Creed Shadows has had its share of controversy during development, and Ubisoft is issuing a Day 1 patch to address one of them. Amid a bunch of other smaller changes, the Day 1 patch also makes it so players can't destroy the environment inside temples. Some objects inside temples can still be destroyed, provided they are generic objects found elsewhere in the game, but certain tables and racks can't be destroyed. In other news, Xbox's Phil Spencer wants to adapt more Microsoft IP to movies or shows. The Halo series failed to connect with fans, but Xbox has had success with the Fallout show, which may provide the blueprint for other live-action adaptations. And finally, the hardest level in Split Fiction has been beaten, and the first pair to do it won a one-of-a-kind real-life prize from Hazelight Studios.

From "In The Pits" join John, Scott, Spencer and Phil for this weeks Motorsports Racing update!

In today's Daily Fix:A report from Windows Central details Microsoft's next-gen Xbox plans, and they include not only a new console, but two handhelds, one of which is due later this year. Microsoft has yet to comment on the report, but some of the details do line up with what Xbox's Phil Spencer said at IGN Live last year, that the company won't have its own handheld ready for at least a couple of years. In other news, Naughty Dog's Neil Druckmann spoke with filmmaker Alex Garland about the upcoming sci-fi game Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, and how religion plays a big role in the game's story. And finally, images and video from a new Battlefield playtest have leaked onto reddit, and EA doesn't seem to mind?

Don't look now, there's a NEW DualSense controller and PlayStation has an official Beta program. What will we be testing? Who knows!

Because what other instrument would a fish play?   Rockbeasts has been announced and looks to be the sleep hit we never knew we needed. Creatures big and small all come together in this unique RPG that is going to be filled to the brim with the best puns ever. And we're hyped for it!    That Annapurna Interactive Showcase took place and there were announcements for announcements. From game devs confirming they are working on their next game, to release dates for games you've never heard of, the entire show could have been an email. At least according to us. We're not massive indie fans, so we're pretty sure some hidden gems are slipping under our radar. If we missed something exciting, be sure to let us know.    Phil Spencer has said that generative A.I. is going to be amazing for game preservation. We have some doubts after seeing the current state of things, but like any good Microsoftie, Phil is making sure to lock step with the wider Microsoft as they march to the drumbeat of A.I. in everything. All we ask is for our Xbox to be a little smarter... What do you think? Is A.I. in video games a good thing? Or is it one giant Silicon Valley bubble?    Not to be outdone, the head kahuna of Microsoft - Satya himself - has started crooning about the role of A.I. in video games. Particularly, how import gaming data is to Microsoft in helping to train their models. Just think - you'll go off to work one day and your A.I. avatar gets to stay home and unlock achievements for you. Because who wants to play their games anyway? It's much easier to let A.I. beat that boss, get that perfect three-star score, or manage your inventory. Actually, that last one sounds like the perfect use of A.I. in video games. Never having to deal with inventory management ever again will make it all worth it.   All this and much, much more in this week's episode of The Regular Show!

This week, Xbox unveiled MUSE, a generative AI model aimed at boosting creativity and possibilities for gameplay. Published in the journal Nature as well as announced by Microsoft Research, the Xbox team shared findings alongside Ninja Theory on what this new AI model that was trained on Bleeding Edge could accomplish. In the extensive write-ups, we learn about the principles of this AI model, what Xbox's mandate is for it across their first party studios, and even get teased a bit on what it could mean for backwards compatibility. However, is it all sunshine and roses here for Xbox's new approach to game development? The push for AI is on more than ever and it's no longer a matter of "if" but rather "when." Like any tool, its public perception will be dictated by how responsibly it is handled. Joining Matty this week is Brad, to clean up the AI mess, and dive into a whole bunch of other Xbox news. We follow up our last episode's conversation on Avowed, dig into the future of Obsidian, mull over yet another Phil Spencer interview, and plenty more in what is bound to be divisive subject for many listeners.

Guest: Bobby Kotick, former CEO of Activision Blizzard; and Bing Gordon, general partner at Kleiner PerkinsIn 2020, when President Trump signed the executive order that would ban TikTok in the U.S., Bobby Kotick called his old friend Steven Mnuchin. The former Secretary of the Treasury told him that, if TikTok's U.S. operations were to be sold to an American company, Microsoft would be the only bidder.A couple calls later, he reached ByteDance founder and CEO Zhang Yiming, who said he'd rather sell to Bobby than Microsoft. Concerned about his ability to get the deal done solo, Bobby called Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella and offered to make a joint bid. Nadella declined, but added, “ if the deal doesn't get done, we should sit down and talk about us buying Activision.” TikTok currently remains Chinese-owned, but three years later, Microsoft paid $75 billion for Activision Blizzard.Chapters:Mentioned in this episode: Harvard-Westlake School, Alison Ressler, Vivendi, Berkshire Hathaway, Bruce Hack and Arnaud de Puyfontaine, John Riccitiello and EA, Call of Duty, Bizarre Creations, Atari, Apple II, Commodore 64, Jean-Louis Gassée, Apple Lisa, Howard Lincoln, Philips, Magnavox Odyssey, Sutter Hill Ventures, Infocom and Zork, Toys-R-Us, Howard Hughes, E.

After a strong financial performance in December 2024 and a non-disastrous Phil Spencer interview, gamers are seemingly starting to bite on Xbox's vision a bit. After managing to fund games like Kunitsu-Gami, Ninja Gaiden 4, and reportedly picking up the phone to talk about Ori 3, Xbox appears to be driving all of their capital into making the unlikely games actually exist. If Xbox's future as a third party publisher is looking like this, it means that excellent games are enroute and that is a win for everyone. Do the Dukes agree?! Perhaps.
