At the Sony State of Play, there was a new Digital Eclipse collection released for Rayman's 30th Anniversary - and I didn't get it on launch, going back on my word that their collections were now day one purchases. Steam Decks are now out of stock and Valve doesn't know when they'll be able to manufacture more. This is most likely because of the RAM shortage because AI companies have already ordered more RAM than factories can produce right now. Because of this, the Steam Machine and Steam Frame are also delayed and will not launch in the first quarter of 2026 like originally announced. Riot Games has laid off the majority of the team that built 2KXO two weeks after the game left early access. What is the actual plan for live service games to keep their teams after releasing the core product? Then we talk to Jamie at OLR about the new Stern Pinball release - Pokemon.

KPN Glasvezel heeft inhoudelijk geen inspraak op de content en zien de video net als jullie hier voor het eerst op de site.De lente komt eraan. Je zou het nu niet zeggen met dat gedruppel buiten, maar let woensdag aanstaande maar op. Wij brengen die eerste zonnestralen echter nu al je werkruimte of woonkamer binnen met een nieuwe episode van Brievenmaandag. De rubriek waarin de heren en soms een dame van Gamekings in de studio jullie vragen van een passend antwoord voorzien. Dit keer zitten Boris, Jasper en Koos achter de desk. Klaar voor een uurtje vrolijk gebabbel. Ze beantwoorden onder andere vragen over de profetie van Boris over Days Gone, de (en daar is die weer) Steam Deck en morele keuzes maken in games als Bioshock en Fallout. Deze onderwerpen en meer krijg je in de Brievenmaandag van maandag 23 februari 2026.‘Profeet' Boris had gelijk met Days GoneAndere vragen die acte de présence geven in deze rubriek zijn wat de beste games voor de Switch 2 zijn, of Koos nog een stapel Blu-Rays wil en hoe je een leuke vriendin aan de haak kan slaan. Hebben we daar nog tips & tricks voor.Stap nu over op KPN Internet en krijg een Switch 2 of PS5Vanaf vandaag heeft KPN een actie lopen die je als weldenkend gamer bijna niet links kan laten liggen. Als je namelijk overstapt naar KPN Internet (hoeft dus NIET per se glasvezel te zijn) en een tweejarig abonnement afneemt, kun je als welkomstcadeau kiezen uit een Switch 2 of een PS5. En we weten dat veel mensen nog een Switch 2 willen halen en de mensen die in november GTA 6 willen spelen en nog geen PS5 hebben, zijn ook erg gebaat bij deze actie. Hier vind je alle info, de voorwaarden en de plek om deze deal te sluiten. En oh ja, glasvezel is wel zo fijn als je onbekommerd wil gamen. We spreken uit ervaring.

En este episodio comentamos cómo Phil y Sarah se tiran del barco de Xbox mientras Microsoft cambia toda la cúpula, repasamos el drama de la RAM que deja a Steam Deck sin fabricación, lloramos el cierre de Bluepoint Games, hablamos de cómo Nintendo vende nostalgia y remasters a precio de oro (con clásicos de Pokémon incluidos) mientras Mario Tennis se la pega, rajamos de la gente que va repartiendo spoilers de Resident Evil Requiem, celebramos el récord de Nioh 3, asumimos que Roblox manda más que todas las consolas juntas, brindamos por que habrá más NieR y rematamos con el epitafio definitivo de Highguard y una noticia de eSports que pide terapia grupal.

If you thought the internet was a dumpster fire before, the EU LAUNCHES SECOND INVESTIGATION INTO GROK because Musk's bot won't stop generating nonconsensual imagery. Meanwhile, META LARGELY FAILS TO PROTECT KIDS FROM AI CHATBOTS, proving that their internal safety checks are about as effective as a screen door on a submarine. If that doesn't creep you out, AFTER RING PRIVACY BACKLASH over police partnerships, a LEAKED EMAIL SUGGESTS RING PLANS TO EXPAND ‘SEARCH PARTY' from finding lost dogs to total neighborhood surveillance. Of course, REDDIT, META, AND GOOGLE VOLUNTARILY GAVE DHS INFO on users critical of ICE, because why stand up for privacy when you can just comply?In the news, we look at OPENCLAW, OPENAI AND THE FUTURE as the project's founder joins the Borg, even though META AND OTHER TECH FIRMS PUT RESTRICTIONS ON USE OF OPENCLAW because it's basically a security hole that can click your mouse for you. Peak stupidity has arrived with RFK JR'S NEW CHATBOT giving rectal dietary advice, while AI COMPANIES BOUGHT OUT ALL OF WESTERN DIGITAL'S HARD DRIVES through 2026, meaning you can't have storage because the bots need it more. Even VALVE ADMITS STEAM DECK AVAILABILITY IS AFFECTED by this memory hoarding. We also touch on STEVE BANNON SUED OVER MAGA CRYPTO SCHEME, LOS ANGELES COUNTY FILES LAWSUIT AGAINST ROBLOX for being a safety nightmare, and the fact that TESLA ROBOTAXIS REPORTEDLY CRASHING at four times the human rate. TESLA DODGES 30-DAY SUSPENSION by simply killing the word "Autopilot," while NEW YORK HITS THE BRAKES ON ROBOTAXI EXPANSION to keep the chaos at bay. Finally, POLYMARKET WITHDRAWS EXPLOSIVE ARTEMIS BETTING MARKET because betting on dead astronauts is too much even for them, leading the ETHEREUM CREATOR STARTING TO THINK THIS WHOLE PREDICTION MARKET THING MIGHT BE GAMBLING. As NEVADA SUES KALSHI and Jack Dorsey oversees INSIDE THE ROLLING LAYOFFS AT JACK DORSEY'S BLOCK—using AI to summarize the misery of his employees—just remember: YOU'LL BE SORRY WHEN YOU HEAR WHAT JUSTIN BIEBER'S $1.3 MILLION BORED APE IS WORTH NOW. Hint: it's twelve grand.In this week's MEDIA CANDY, we've got FREE BERT, KAT WILLIAMS: THE LAST REPORT, and the eternal return of SHREK. We're checking out MARK ROBER on Netflix, the return of MONARCH: LEGACY OF MONSTERS, and the trailer for GOOD LUCK, HAVE FUN, DON'T DIE. If you need a soundtrack for the apocalypse, Thomas Benjamin Wild Esq has you covered with STOP USING GENERATIVE A.I and the Gen-X anthem I'VE NO MORE F*S TO GIVE!.Moving to APPS & DOODADS, OBSIDIAN TO NOTES is a $14 well spent, unlike CURSOR and VISUAL STUDIO CODE which are getting bogged down by slow models. APPLE'S AI PENDANT sounds like a watered-down Humane pin that relies on your phone to think, and APPLE PODCASTS AND VIDEO remains a pipe dream because bandwidth costs money. We've reached the point where THERE'S A GRIM NEW EXPRESSION: “AI;DR” for things not worth reading, and THERE'S A NEW TERM FOR WORKERS FREAKING OUT over being replaced—AIRD, or AI Replacement Dysfunction—which is basically the low-grade panic of being made obsolete by a machine that thinks bananas go in your bum.AT THE LIBRARY, we're thumbing through CLEAVE THE SPARROW, THE REGICIDE REPORT by Charles Stross, and Robin Ince being NORMALLY WEIRD AND WEIRDLY NORMAL.Then we descend into THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE, where the Muppets are taking over with THE MUPPET SHOW and MUPPETS NOW. We catch the latest on THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU and TOY STORY 5, while tracking the PENTAGON PIZZA INDEX to see if war is breaking out. For the kids, we look at a 3D PRINTER / ENTRY LEVEL FOR KIDS like the Bambu Lab A1, and for the nerds, A STAR WARS-CENTRIC RSS FEED and a NEAT IDEA FOR AN RSS READER, “CURRENT,” which lets news drift away like water under a bridge. We wrap it all up with some HORROR IN UNDER TWO MINUTES and IMPECCABLE COVERS OF 80S SYNTH MUSIC, because at least the 80s had better soundtracks than this AI-generated nightmare.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.SquareSpace - go to squarespace.com/GRUMPY for a free trial.

Sony ran an all-timer of a State of Play last week, so we spend a bunch of time digging into a bunch of news and demos about God of War Trilogy Remake, Control Resonant, and Konami's impressive bundle of Castlevania, Silent Hill, and Metal Gear games. Also, games like God of War: Sons of Sparta, Menace, Heart of the Forest, and Avowed on PS5. Also, Vinny's questionable encounter at the Outback Steakhouse.

Another streamer raises prices, a gaming shortage is getting serious, and cloud gaming just got more accessible for millions of households. The post Entertainment 2.0 #704 – Streaming Shifts, Steam Deck Shortages & Cloud Gaming appeared first on The Digital Media Zone.
A week after the Super Bowl and we finally got The Mandalorian and Grogu trailer, took long enough. Also Warner Bros seems to finally relent and gives Paramount 7 days to try again. If the Simpsons ever ends, which is probably more likely than you think, it wont spend time on a grand finale. PlayStation held a state of play last week, and it was heavy on Kratos, plus if you are waiting on a steam deck, blame AI.
El retraso de la PS6 y el aumento de precio de la Nintendo Switch 2 marcan el "RAMmageddon" de 2026. Analizamos la escasez en Valve, las filtraciones de Resident Evil 9 y los lanzamientos de la semana.

KPN Glasvezel heeft inhoudelijk geen inspraak op de content en zien de video net als jullie hier voor het eerst op de site.Welkom bij een nieuwe episode van Gamekings Daily. In deze gaming vodcast praten twee hosts van Gamekings over het laatste nieuws uit de wereld die videogames heet. Huey zit bij JJ aan de desk om het laatste nieuws met hem door te nemen. Belangrijkste topics in deze editie zijn de AI bedrijven die het leven van de gamers momenteel flink zuur maken en de open wereld die EA aan hun footie EA Sports FC 27 wil toevoegen. Zitten we op dat laatste te wachten en wat is de impact van de AI-manie precies op ons gamers? Dit en meer zie en hoor je voorbijkomen in de Gamekings Daily van donderdag 19 januari 2026.AI grootmachten kopen alle chips op en laten gamers beteuterd achterDe hype van AI is momenteel zo groot dat grote spelers in deze tak van sport momenteel alle chips die er te krijgen zijn, opkopen. Gevolg: PlayStation stelt release PS6 met twee jaar uit, de Switch 2 wordt mogelijk duurder, de Steam Deck is niet meer te krijgen en de prijzen van gaming laptops gaan met 20% omhoog. Waar gaat dit naartoe? Wordt gamen straks peperduur?Stap nu over op KPN internet en krijg een Switch 2 of PS5 cadeauVanaf deze week heeft KPN een actie lopen die je als weldenkend gamer bijna niet links kunt laten liggen. Als je namelijk overstapt naar KPN internet en een tweejarig abonnement afneemt, kun je als welkomstcadeau kiezen uit een Switch 2 of een PS5. En we weten dat veel mensen nog een Switch 2 willen halen. Plus de gamers die in november GTA 6 willen spelen en nog geen PS5 hebben; die zijn ook erg gebaat bij deze actie. Hier vind je alle info, de voorwaarden en de plek om deze deal te sluiten. En oh ja, glasvezel is natuurlijk de beste optie (als die tenminste bij jou in de straat ligt). Heb je geen lag meer en op sommige plekken tot 4 g/bit up snelheden. Wel zo fijn als je onbekommerd wil gamen.

Steam is the last platform that actually respects digital ownership. In an industry dominated by subscription services, cloud gaming, and live service fatigue, Valve's Steam storefront still gives PC gamers the ability to actually own their games. This video explores how Steam accidentally became the last safe haven in modern gaming—and why even that might not last. Game Pass, PlayStation Plus, and cloud gaming services offer convenience at the cost of control. Players are locked into ecosystems where access can vanish overnight, and your game library is more like a leased playlist. But Steam still allows full downloads, offline mode, and long-term game access—features most other platforms have quietly abandoned. Steam still works, and Valve deserves credit… kind of. ------------------------------------------------------------ #Steam #PCGaming #GamePass #DigitalOwnership #Valve Discord: https://discord.gg/Sju7YckUWu Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/daytondo...

Subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/ReddX... Amazon link to my mic: https://amzn.to/3lInsRR ReddX merch: https://reddx-shop.fourthwall.... PC gaming survives because Steam does. The Steam Deck gave gamers a portable, personal archive. Meanwhile, Game Pass rotates games out constantly. PlayStation Plus locks content behind tiers. Cloud gaming threatens to take away the last physical remnants of ownership. Valve didn't set out to fight this—Steam just never stopped being a store. But let's not romanticize too much. Valve is still a company, and Steam isn't perfect. DRM exists, moderation is spotty, and discoverability is often a nightmare. This isn't fanboyism—it's a warning. Even Steam could flip the switch. We trust Valve now, but what happens when leadership changes or the pressure to monetize increases? If you care about PC gaming, digital ownership, and the future of games, this video is for you. Let's talk about what we have, what we lost, and what we're risking. Steam may have saved gaming by accident—but that won't save us next time. YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channe...

Gaming hardware is evolving faster than ever, but delays and misconceptions still dominate the conversation. This episode of Decked Up uncovers the truth behind the delay of Valve's Steam Machine — and reveals why the hype around next-gen consoles like PlayStation 6 and Xbox in 2026 misses the bigger picture. If you're tired of the noise and want to understand the real forces shaping gaming in 2026, this episode is your essential guide.You'll discover how global RAM shortages driven by AI and Bitcoin mining are impacting hardware launches, and what that means for your gaming plans. We break down the current state of the handheld PC market, from the Steam Deck's stock shortage to the rise of the ROG Ally and the saturation of portable gaming PCs. Plus, get insights into why the traditional console cycle is slowing down, and what that means for gamers craving new experiences.In this candid episode, host Mekel unpacks the myths of the "niche" gaming market versus mainstream dominance. He discusses how industry giants like Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo are recalibrating their strategies to stay ahead — often by going where players are already spending their time, namely tech and digital services. Learn why the idea of a “generation leap” in consoles is dead, and the true value of investing in hardware that "quietly helps you win."Key Topics:Delays and supply issues affecting the Steam Machine, Steam Frame, and Steam Deck, plus predictions for release timelinesThe next-gen console landscape: PlayStation 6, Xbox's shipping plans, and why new hardware updates are happening later than usualThe state of handheld gaming PCs: market saturation, performance challenges, and the best devices like ROG Ally and Legion GoIndustry commentary: how community narratives, content creator grifts, and market over-saturation influence perceptionsThe evolution of gaming hardware revisions: from PlayStation 5 to Xbox Series X/S and classic consolesTrends in game releases, collections, and franchise remasters signaling upcoming announcements#SteamDeck #SteamMachine #SteamFrame #SteamController #Steam

Retro and current gen gaming chat, with Trev and Stu, its the Console Shockcast! PC gaming handhelds have evolved fast since Valve shook things up by revealing the Steam Deck in 2021—but what should a true second-generation Valve handheld look like? Trev and Stu break down what would actually make a Steam Deck 2 a meaningful upgrade, drawing on features from newer PC handhelds and asking which ones Valve should steal, refine, or ignore entirely. In this episode: We kick things off with EA FC 26 somehow running on a 12-year-old laptop Valve nailed the original form factor—but is it time for a higher-resolution display? Modern handhelds are pushing higher TDPs for extra performance—should Valve move beyond the 15-watt limit? A more modular design, including easily user-replaceable SSDs, for better long-term upgrades Is a 5× performance jump over the original Steam Deck the bare minimum expectation? Bigger batteries for longer, truly untethered gaming sessions Hall-effect joysticks to finally put stick drift in the bin A next-gen dock with Switch-style performance boosts when docked If that's still not enough power… is it time for external GPU support? Whether you're all-in on Valve's handheld future or just curious where PC portables are heading next, this one's for you. Check out Trev and Al’s other podcast where they reminisce about a different episode of Star Trek every month! : https://longrangesensors.com/episodes Intro/Outro Music – Turn The Page (Tutorial Theme) – Ridge Racer Type 4 (1998) – Sony Playstation – Composer(s): Hiroshi Okubo
I didn't know but apparently, in some other timeline we should have been talking about the release and pricing of the Steam Machine and all those other gadgets Valve had planned to release. And while they are still planned to be released, seemingly, this year, we don't know when or what they'll cost. Because Valve doesn't know. The reason for this takes us back to what we talked about last week and likely what we'll be talking about in the weeks to come: AI. When announced last year the Steam Machine was really something to look forward to. Valve seems to be of the mind that they sort of want everyone to experience PC gaming. The Steam Deck was the first attempt at this and it's done wonderfully. People who had a PC now had something portable and people without a gaming PC of any kind now had something to experience PC gaming with. The Steam Machine was set to follow suit. Something, likely, affordable that wasn't overly powerful but had decent specs and could run games at mid to upper settings. The speculation on price was the biggest factor of anything about the device itself. And we're still left waiting on that. Because of RAM. This is, sadly, going to be a running theme for us this year I'm afraid. The whole RAM thing is a result of AI, as we've stated before and that's just going to lead to a whole world of hurt as far as…well, probably everything. I'm really hoping next week I'll have something else to write and talk about. Maybe a Splinter Cell game, but probably not. Ubisoft, it has been 4,556 days since a new Splinter Cell game (non-animated series or guest spot in another game franchise, remake, BBC radio drama, or VR exclusive) was released. Also, there's been 1100 job losses in the gaming industry since January 1, 2026.

We are back for 2026! After a year-long challenge of purchasing zero new video games in 2025, Trevor and Jeff break down the aftermath. Did we survive the FOMO? What is the first game we bought in 2026? In this episode, we dive into the "Dad Dust" of getting back behind the mic, the joy of finally playing Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 and Hades 2, and the promising horizon of 2026 releases like Fable and potential Witcher 3 DLC. We also discuss the state of gaming in our households: from successfully banning Roblox, to our kids discovering Skyrim with heavy mods, to the hilarious realization our children had while playing WWE 2K24—that you used to be able to unlock characters just by playing the game. Finally, Jeff shares his newfound obsession with Valheim on the Steam Deck and why its "beautiful ugly" aesthetic is perfect for gaming dads.

This week's episode is based on the video game Dispatch (ADHOC) our first game homage at uncommon ambience.Before each episode (level) of the game Dispatch there is a mildly animated ambient perspective. For instance, episode two of Dispatch shows a lobby, a mostly static scene, and you have buttons for “Play,” “Settings,” “Extras,” and “Exit Game” at the bottom.The ambient experience for each episode is what I live for — a liminal space to inhabit (that loops seamlessly every few minutes). Recently, I used the late-night office start screen for sleep (episode 3). Probably not ideal for my Steam Deck working all night as a noise maker.So here is the value proposition: I can make the ambient experience longer and in podcast form (with my own sounds; this is homage, not theft).If you are not familiar, Dispatch is an absolutely charming (lewd) gamified choose-your-adventure cartoon with occasional button-mashing. Set in a despotic Los Angele-ish world of superheroes and supervillains. The heroing comes with a price tag for the powerless. If you need rescuing or have a donut shop to protect, you better have a subscription with SDN (Superhero Dispatch Network).And that's how we get to “Dispatch.” In the game, you are a beaten hero forced to serve as a team leader in an emergency call center. Instead of calling 911 for fire or public safety, civillians call superheroes with capes or an angsty invisible lady who can seriously throw hands.To have a subscription to a superhero service in a world of war crimes and masked men kidnapping people off our streets — well, that would be amazing. I would love to task the Blonde Bomber with chucking a few doofuses into orbit.But Alan Moore might caution my bringing fantasy with me into the real world — pretending I have Professor X mind melting rays for that ******* who ran the red, might deliver a brief (meaningless) sensation of victory. It's less than self-indulgence.Moore spoke about the dangers of grown folks watching Batman films — a just crusader swooping in with morals and a Batarang, delivering accountability to the powerful. The danger is we accept these fantasies, of independent-actors fixing systemic problems and not interrogate our responsibilities in an unfair world. But ****, I wouldn't look askance if the future handed us comic book technology, especially if it comes with Scud the Disposable Assassin vending machines. I would go for the “Scud Lite” version, the robot that only beats the “**** out of somebody.” Ahhh, escapism.BTW, I don't know how Alan Moore would take Dispatch. Dispatch was released as a game and comic book, at the same time.Superheroes existing in a more realistic universe was Moore's lane (Watchmen, V for Vendetta), but he wasn't fond of comics being made into films, especially his. He wanted to show off what comics could do that films can't. I would love to know Moore's thoughts on Zack Snyder's chorus of the Aquaman.This is where I'm ending it.I had a bunch more paragraphs that built from a “If safe were profitable we would already be safe” — and join me on the tambourine line!That somehow led to my praising the LL Cool J Mr. Smith album which has been unfairly eclipsed by one of its singles, to landing on the track “Life As…” being on both Mr. Smith and the Street Fighter soundtrack, and finally to a Street Fighter advertisement from The Source Magazine (April '95) featuring a comic that concedes the movie is ****, but the album is dope (plus MC Hammer / Deion Sanders).AND… Tell Tale Walking Dead… I was ruthlessly mocked by coworkers in 2013 for saving Doug over Carley the TV Reporter and that I somehow had a grudge against news people. Gawd Doug sucked, but he looked to be closer to immediate peril — Carley had a gun! How was I supposed to know Carley was out of ammo.Shoehorned it, baby![[episode graphic made in photoshop]]
