Podcasts about Rockstar Games

We've got a big show this week, starting with headlines from American Axle, Spring Glass, Starbucks Korea, REI, Ball State University, Harvard, Hearst Newspapers, Rockstar Games, and the Brazilian working class. Our main story this week is discussing the struggle by workers inside and outside to free the detainees at the Delaney Hall ICE concentration camp in New Jersey, where union workers and detained workers alike have clashed with fascist police. Samsung workers recently poised to shut down the global chip boom have won a historic victory, with life changing profit sharing gains that could ignite a new wave of struggle in the South Korean working class. Finally, we discuss the massive new union win by rideshare drivers in Massachusetts, where 70,000 drivers have formed the first sectoral rideshare drivers union in the US.

Crimson Desert is the most talked about Game of 2026. It's insane scope, coupled with deep combat and incredible graphics surely make it a candidate as one of the highest scoring games of the year. Well, that is not the case, so we sent Adkins to find out what is really going on under the hood.From Knockout Kings, to Ready to Rumble to Fight Night, boxing games were once a staple of a gamers diet. However, as the sport spluttered and MMA rose to prominence, they seemed to fall by the wayside. In 2024, enter Undisputed and their attempt to bring back a Boxing video game. Biff decided to step into the ring and report back on what to expect.  Mixtape fired out the blocks as one of the highest rated games of the year. Critics cited its incredible soundtrack and emotional narrative as a potential new watermark. As time went on, the scores corrected themselves and Mixtape was snarled up in some controversy. Adkins cuts through all the noise to deliver the final verdict.With GTA VI closing in, Paper decided it was time to catch up on a gap in his Rockstar Games shame list. Paper rewarded himself with Red Dead Redemption 2. Seen as one of the greatest games of all time, this 2018 release is still being spoken about today. Paper continues that with his view on this classic. If you weren't into Mario Kart World, chances are you were looking at Donkey Kong Bananza as your most anticipated Switch 2 game of 2026. It took a bit of time but Adkins finally got time to blast through this ambitious platformer.Timestamps:00:00:00 Crimson Desert01:02:24 Undisputed01:45:36 Mixtape02:10:40 Red Dead Redemption 203:19:54 Donkey Kong Bananza

The monthly video gaming briefing from GameBurst documents significant industrial milestones alongside ongoing corporate restructuring across major publishers. Leading the news, Subnautica 2 has launched into Early Access today on PC and Xbox Series X|S. Developed by Unknown Worlds Entertainment, the title includes four-player cooperative mechanics and an updated Unreal Engine 5 foundation. The release follows a protracted development period marked by internal leadership disputes and legal conflict involving its publisher. In corporate developments, Capcom has reported record annual performance for the fiscal year ending March 2026, with 59 million total units sold. The results were driven heavily by Resident Evil Requiem, pushing the franchise past 200 million lifetime sales. Separately, retail data suggests pre-orders for Rockstar Games' Grand Theft Auto 6 are imminent, prompting industry speculation ahead of Take-Two Interactive's quarterly earnings call. Further updates include Nintendo's decision to bring forward the theatrical release of the live-action Legend of Zelda film to April 2027, alongside the expansion of the Nintendo Switch Online service to include five additional Virtual Boy titles. Sony also confirmed the addition of Red Dead Redemption 2 and Star Wars Outlaws to the PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium tiers. The update concludes with the panel's Picks of the Week, covering Mixtape, Frieren: Beyond Journey's End, and contemporary tabletop gaming. #gameburst Featured Video Links Quinns Quest Reviews: Stonetop

As expectativas estão aumentando! Em uma listagem de uma grande rede de varejo dos EUA, a data da pré-venda de GTA 6 vazou e agora tá todo mundo esperando um novo trailer, mais novidades, mais revelações sobre o jogo. E cadê a Rockstar Games nesta história? Parece que eles já estão preparando o site oficial do jogo para esta etapa do marketing do jogo.Vem conferir os destaques da semana no Flow Games News de hoje!

Fatality! Mortal Kombat II is out, and its hilarious, in a good way! Plus Mixtape shines in a way I never expected. Meanwhile, Nintendo jumps on the price increase bandwagon, Ahsoka is stuck in another galaxy for another year, and peacock is about to get a speed boost.

In today's Daily Fix:A reported Grand Theft Auto 6 leak from Best Buy suggests the game will go up for pre-order this Monday, and that suggests a new trailer could be dropping very soon. Several gaming influencers have reportedly received an email with details about a GTA 6 pre-order date at Best Buy. It would make sense to pair the official announcement with a GTA 6 Trailer 3, but no announcement has been made by Best Buy or developer Rockstar Games. The last trailer debuted a little over a year ago. In other leak news, prominent Ubisoft leaker j0nathan claims he has revealed the first image from Assassin's Creed Hexe, along with a few details about the game's characters. And finally, director Matt Reeves has confirmed Scarlett Johansson has joined the cast of The Batman — Part 2, but has not revealed the character she'll play.And as part of IGN's 30th anniversary celebration, we're giving away 30 free IGN Live tickets a day. Go to live.ign.com and use code IGN30PROMO to get your free ticket.

On this week's GTA VI O'clock, James Jarvis and Dan Dawkins dive deep into the feverish speculation surrounding the next big reveal from Rockstar Games. While the team originally postponed recording in hopes of a "shadow drop" trailer, they instead break down why May is becoming the most critical month in the GTA 6 marketing calendar, the "six-month window" theory, historical patterns involving Rockstar's investor calls, technical rumors surrounding the PS5 Pro, wild community theories including planetary cycles, and a "left-field" rumor regarding a custom music mode that could change how we interact with the sounds of Vice City.

Should we all for the sequel hate ragebait? Probably not. Xbox continues to make positive changes, will it mean anything? Sony suffers a legal loss, and the speculation about GTA VI's price keeps going. Daredevil gets a new status quo, while Maul cowers away. Star Wars Celebration tickets hit the market today, and boy what a cluster that was.

Welkom bij Gamekings Daily. De gaming vodcast waarin twee presentatoren van Gamekings kwebbelen over de laatste ontwikkelingen in de wereld der videogames. Op deze donderdag heeft Koos plaatsgenomen achter de desk. Hij behandelt samen met JJ een aantal onderwerpen en geeft passend commentaar. Zo is daar het interview met een medewerker van Valve die aangeeft dat de komst van de Steam Deck 2 nog wel even op zich laat wachten. Ze behandelen ook de 'frustratie' van fans van Returnal die vinden dat developer Housemarque hun nieuwe game Saros te makkelijk heeft gemaakt. Ze zien dit als een knieval voor de commercie. Hebben ze een punt of vinden de twee dat ze niet zo moeten zeiken? Dit onderwerp en meer zijn te zien en te horen in de Gamekings Daily van donderdag 30 april 2026.Valve ziet nog geen chips die de Steam Deck 2 echt vooruit kunnen helpenEen ander onderwerp dat in deze aflevering aan bod komt, is de komst van de nieuwe Super Mario Galaxy film naar Netflix. De datum is nu bekendgemaakt. Gaat Koos de film daar alsnog bekijken? Je krijgt het antwoord tijdens deze podcast. De twee hebben het ook over het succes van de Crimson Desert-game. De game scoort zo goed dat uitgever Pearl Abyss een aardigheidje voor het personeel heeft bedacht. Wat is dit gebaar en waarom blijft Crimson Desert zo goed scoren?'GTA 6 wordt gewoon 80 euro, daar kun je mij aan houden'Strauss Zelnick, CEO van Take-Two Interactive, sprak op de iicon-conferentie over de prijs van GTA 6. Feitelijk het laatste grote vraagteken rond de megagame van Rockstar. Zelnick gaf helaas nog geen concreet bedrag, maar hij meldde wel dat de geruchten over een extreem hoge prijs bullshit waren. "Consumenten betalen voor de waarde die je biedt, en onze taak is om veel minder te vragen dan die waarde." Hoe interpreteren de heren deze uitspraak en wat gaat volgens hen de prijs van het spel straks worden?Timestamps:00:00:00 De Gamekings Daily van donderdag 30 april00:01:22 Makers betrokken bij Crimson Desert krijgen een bonus00:04:38 De Super Mario Galaxy Movie komt 4 juni naar Netflix00:06:36 Rockstar Games zegt dat GTA 6 niet heel duur gaat worden00:10:29 Valve's Steam Deck 2 laat nog wel even op zich wachten00:19:30 Heeft Housemarque Saros te makkelijk gemaakt?

In dieser Folge sprechen Rüdiger Trost und Tobias Schrödel über eine bunte Mischung aus Polit-Phishing, KI-Überwachung, CarPlay-Wunschlisten und einem Krypto-Scam mit Schusswechsel. Signal-Phishing trifft den Bundestag Bundestagspräsidentin Julia Klöckner sowie zwei Bundesministerinnen (Karin Prien, CDU, und Verena Hubert, SPD) wurden Opfer einer Signal-Phishing-Attacke. Eine gefälschte Nachricht vom angeblichen "Signal-Support" erschlich sich ihre PINs – und ermöglichte damit eine Account-Übernahme. Signal selbst wurde dabei nicht gehackt. Mögliche Urheberschaft: russische Akteure. Als Reaktion forderte Bundestagsvizepräsidentin Andrea Lindholz den Wechsel auf den europäischen Messenger Wire. iOS-Patch gegen FBI Apple schloss mit iOS/iPadOS 18.4.2 die Lücke, über die das FBI in der Vergangenheit gelöschte Signal-Nachrichten aus Push-Notification-Datenbanken rekonstruieren konnte. Tobias gesteht: Den Komfortverlust durch deaktivierte Nachrichtenvorschauen nimmt er nicht mehr in Kauf. Tim Cook tritt zurück Ab September soll John Ternus, bisheriger Hardware-Chef bei Apple, das Ruder übernehmen. Was er als erstem CEO-Auftritt vorzeigen wird – MacBook Pro mit Touchscreen? Foldable iPhone? – bleibt abzuwarten. FCC-Routerverbot verschärft Entgegen der eigenen Vorhersage hat die US-Regulierungsbehörde FCC das Verbot von WLAN-Routern ohne US-Produktion nicht zurückgenommen, sondern ausgeweitet – jetzt auch auf mobile WLAN-Hotspots. Ausnahmegenehmigungen für bereits eingelagerte Geräte gelten befristet. Rüdiger und Tobias bleiben bei ihrer Einschätzung: Das wird nicht von Dauer sein. Rockstar-Hack macht Aktienkurs froh Die Gruppe Shiny Hunters erbeutete interne Daten von Rockstar Games und veröffentlichte sie nach verweigertem Lösegeld. Darin enthalten: GTA Online verdient ca. eine Million Dollar pro Tag – obwohl nur rund 400.000 von 9 Millionen wöchentlichen Spielern tatsächlich Geld ausgeben. Der Aktienkurs stieg. Krypto-Scam mit Kanonenschuss Vor der Straße von Hormuz überzeugten Kriminelle einen indischen Tanker, einer gefälschten Bitcoin-Wallet der Iranischen Revolutionsgarden eine Million Dollar zu überweisen – und fuhr dann los. Die echten Revolutionsgarden beschossen das Schiff. Es gibt Tonmitschnitte des panischen Funkverkehrs und Tracking-Screenshots, wie der Tanker auf offener See auf dem Absatz kehrtmacht. KI-Themen der Woche - Meta überwacht alle Mitarbeiterbewegungen (Maus, Klicks, Screenshots) zur KI-Trainierung – datenschutzrechtlich in der EU nicht zulässig. - Microsoft Copilot-AGB: "For entertainment purposes only" – also eigentlich nichts für den geschäftlichen Einsatz. - KI-Versicherungen: Existieren, zahlen aber laut Insider nicht wirklich aus. - Wem gehört KI-generierter Code? Claude sagt: dem Nutzer. Die Rechtslage ist ungeklärt. CarPlay Feature Request Rüdigger erfindet die "Surrounding Aware Playlist": Das Auto weiß, wer sitzt wo – also bitte kein Vaiana-Soundtrack mehr, wenn Daddy allein im Wagen Rage Against the Machine hören will. -- Links zur Folge immer auf https://podcast.ichglaubeeshackt.de/ Wenn Euch unser Podcast gefallen hat, freuen wir uns über eine Bewertung!

Rockstar Games confirms a third-party data breach. Bryan Hultgren reports on the "ShinyHunters" attack and the status of "Grand Theft Auto VI." ​The most anticipated game of 2026 is back in the headlines for the wrong reasons. Hacker group ShinyHunters claims to have accessed Rockstar Games' servers through the Anodot monitoring platform. While Rockstar downplays the breach as "non-material," fans are drawing parallels to the massive 2022 leaks. We break down the timeline, the group's history with Microsoft and Ticketmaster, and what this means for the November 19 launch. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In today's Daily Fix:It's been a leaky past few days, with hackers threating to leak info from Rockstar Games if their ransom isn't met. The hackers gained access to a Rockstar data warehouse, but Rockstar apparently isn't worried. The ransom deadline is tomorrow, April 14th, so we'll find out soon if the ransom was paid. 007 First Light gameplay and story details—including the ending—were accidentally leaked when footage was uploaded to an Indonesian ratings board, which could be accessed by the public. And Nickelodeon accidentally sent the entire movie of Aang: The Last Airbender to the wrong person, who has subsequently threatened to stream the whole thing.

In de categorie spraakmakende hacks, datalekken en dergelijke cyberincidenten is nu ook Grand Theft Auto-maker Rockstar Games (weer) slachtoffer geworden. Het bedrijf achter GTA 6 is indirect getroffen door een ShinyHunters en die hackersgroep zet nu druk op Rockstar met het dreigement de buitgemaakte data te gaan lekken. Joe van Burik vertelt erover in deze Tech Update.

No dia 17 de março de 2026, o cenário digital brasileiro sofreu uma de suas maiores transformações com a entrada em vigor do Estatuto Digital da Criança e do Adolescente, popularmente batizado de "Lei Felca". O que começou como uma denúncia necessária sobre a "adultização" e exploração infantil na internet, transformou-se em uma legislação complexa que divide opiniões entre especialistas, pais e a indústria do entretenimento. Neste vídeo, a Brasil Paralelo detalha os principais pontos da nova lei: desde o combate à erotização infantil e ao design viciante (como a rolagem infinita), até as polêmicas restrições que afetaram gigantes como Rockstar Games e Riot Games. Entenda por que jogos como League of Legends e Fortnite precisaram alterar suas classificações etárias e como o sistema de "loot boxes" — os cassinos virtuais — foi severamente atingido. Analisamos também o impacto na privacidade dos usuários com o fim da autodeclaração de idade e a implementação de verificações biométricas. Por que as crianças estão protestando contra o Felca? Qual o limite entre a proteção do Estado e a liberdade individual?

No começo da semana, Rockstar Games anunciou que seus jogos não poderiam mais ser adquiridos pela sua loja ou pelo Rockstar Games Launcher no Brasil. O motivo? A implementação do Estatuto Digital da Criança e do Adolescente, o ECA Digital. Mas não é só GTA e os jogos da Rockstar que foram impactados. Além disso, a Sony já declarou que vai abandonar a marca "PlayStation Network" por uma identidade "mais moderna". Qual o próximo nome?Vem que a resenha no Flow Games News de hoje é de respeito!

ECA Digital (a Lei Felca) entra em vigor hoje (17); entenda as novas regras. E já teve mudanças: Google restringe Busca, YouTube e Play Store para menores. Rockstar Games bloqueia venda de jogos no Brasil em sua loja; GTA 6 será afetado? O Linux sobreviverá ao ECA Digital: nosso colunista explica. ‘Não tem o que fazer': diz presidente da Motorola Brasil sobre crise de chips. Taxa mínima para entregadores reduzirá pedidos em 67%, diz pesquisa do iFood. E Meta planeja demissões em massa em meio ao aumento de custos com IA, diz agência.

Dan Houser was the lead writer, creative director and co-founder of Rockstar Games. Rockstar are the studio behind the 'Grand Theft Auto' and 'Red Dead Redemption' series. They're responsible for over half a billion video game sales. 'GTA V' and 'Red Dead Redemption 2' are both in the top 5 bestselling video games ever... and Dan wrote them.Since leaving Rockstar, he's set up Absurd Ventures, a studio he says will create new universes in video games, podcasts, animation, and now it's spawned his debut novel. 'A Better Paradise - Volume 1: An Aftermath' is the start of a world of stories across different forms of media.Here's the blurb - Mark Tyburn dreams of building the perfect video game. Kurt Fischer dreams of being a rich and successful executive. Daisy Tyburn dreams of having the ideal father. John Tyburn Smith dreams of fitting in. NigelDave just dreams of becoming human. Set in the near future, A BETTER PARADISE tells the story of the ill-fated development of an ambitious but addictive video game project that goes very wrong. As the software they developed starts to produce unexpected and disturbing results, the project is shut down and abandoned. Until now. We discuss what he's learned from writing his first novel and how that'll influence future stories. Also you can hear how he dealt with the weight of expectation while working on the biggest video games around, how he's trying to build boundaries, and how he knows where a story idea will live. There's also a good amount of chat about GTA's fantastic radio stations.Get a copy of the book - uk.bookshop.org/shop/writersroutineis episode is sponsored by Ulysses.
