The boys are back and this time Crendor brings a fact of the day so crazy it can only be topped by the WILD news story. Oh, and it's Mother's Day. So that makes this all incredibly awkward. Although Jesse seems to be taking this in stride. Invincible VS is out now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC. Go to http://buyraycon.com/coxOPEN to get 15% off.

Sony just wrote off $765 million on Bungie — and somehow that's not even the wildest thing that happened in gaming this week. We break down what PlayStation's impairment loss actually means for Marathon, whether Xbox has quietly become just a publishing label, and why the GTA 6 PC delay is a deliberate cash grab no matter what Take-Two's CEO says. Plus: Tarkov is officially going the live service route (RIP), GameStop tried to buy eBay with money they definitely don't have, and Anthropic built an AI so good at finding security bugs they're not letting the public have it yet. And we watched the government UFO files drop live — Jake thinks it might be real, Raz thinks it's mass hysteria and blimps. Genuine disagreement. You decide.

Buckle up for a PS2 heist where Lupin III swaps manga mischief for blocky stealth antics in Treasure of the Sorcerer King, that 2004 gem channeling Monkey Punch's rogue into disguises-gone-wrong and treasure hunts that test more patience than finesse. Joining the vault-cracking crew this time is Robbie Sherman from Conversations with Robbie Sherman, dishing on how the game stacks up to the source chaos of Jigen's aim, Goemon's blade ballet, and Fujiko's inevitable backstab. So grab your best disguise and let's see if you can sneak the treasure out of this one. Either way it's going to be a blast. Learn such things as: When does homage become IP theft? Does it ever work to retcon multiple unrelated characters into a single one and act like it's not weird at all? Do you really need those side characters? Can't we just get rid of all of them and follow the main character exclusively? And so much more! You can Robbie on BlueSky @convoswrob and his podcast Conversations with Robbie Sherman.

Appuntamento fisso del Venerdì pomeriggio dalle 16 alle 18, torna IL CORTOCIRCUITO con il solito trio delle meraviglie, ovvero Pierpaolo Greco, Alessio Pianesani e Francesco Serino, per 2 ore di scoppiettante intrattenimento a ruota libera, con il supporto anche del pubblico e la sontuosa regia di GiuppyTV!Ospite d'eccezione The Italian Actor: MARCO PERRI!Microsoft e il futuro di XboxLa discussione si apre con l'analisi dei risultati finanziari di Microsoft. Nonostante la crescita dei servizi cloud, la divisione hardware Xbox continua a registrare cali. Si discute dei cambiamenti ai vertici guidati da Sarah Bond, con l'integrazione di esperti di intelligenza artificiale nel team Xbox e la promozione di figure storiche come Jason Ronald per guidare i nuovi progetti hardware. Un punto centrale del dibattito è l'eventuale apertura dell'ecosistema Xbox a store di terze parti come Steam ed Epic Games Store.Nintendo: Strategia e StarfoxIl focus si sposta su Nintendo, commentando l'annuncio del nuovo Starfox. Il team analizza la scelta di Nintendo di puntare su un "remake/reboot" dal taglio tecnico ambizioso per l'estate, discutendo se l'anno in corso sia da considerarsi "sperimentale" o semplicemente privo di grandi hit (system seller) in attesa della nuova console. Si parla anche del design dei personaggi, confrontando lo stile del gioco con quello visto nel film di Super Mario, e dell'impatto dei prezzi variabili sui titoli di prima fascia.Analisi del mercato SonyPer quanto riguarda Sony, vengono commentati i dati di vendita di PlayStation 5, che ha superato i 93 milioni di unità. Tuttavia, le previsioni per il prossimo anno rimangono piatte, forse a causa dell'attesa per GTA 6 o del prezzo elevato. Viene affrontato il tema spinoso di Bungie e della svalutazione dell'asset per centinaia di milioni di dollari. Si discute inoltre del tiepido successo di titoli come Saros (comparato a Hades 2) e della difficile strada dei "Game as a Service" (GaaS) per Sony dopo i recenti flop.Curiosità: Pavoni a Ravenna e MicrodrammiIn chiusura, il team commenta con ironia l'invasione di pavoni in un paese vicino Ravenna, discutendo dei disagi causati agli abitanti. Infine, viene esplorato il fenomeno dei "microdrammi": soap opera verticali prodotte per TikTok e social media, con un focus sul primo esperimento italiano prodotto da Maria De Filippi per la piattaforma Witty.

Mas agora em termos de projeção de jogos, eu fiquei muito surpreso com o anúncio do Kiln, o jogo de cerâmica da Double Fine, que foi anunciado na Xbox Developer Direct, um evento que eu acho bem chato da Xbox, mas tá bom né, é o que tem. Foi um jogo surpresa, e bom, um jogo da Double Fine, depois do fracasso de vendas do Keeper, ufa né, que beleza, tá viva quem não morreu, que beleza, que alívio. E segundo, que esse jogo aparece na série documental da Double Fine, sobre o processo de criação do Psychonauts 2, que eu fiz referência aqui no Dois Analógicos - Diálogo infinito sobre games via WhatsApp. Com João Varella, Alexandre Sato, Thomas Kehl, Marcos Kiyoto, João R e Marina Andreoli Dois Analógicos - Listen on Spotify - Linktree

Elon Musk réorganise son empire tandis que son procès avec Sam Altman dévoile les coulisses d'OpenAI • La justice française ouvre une information judiciaire contre le patron de X • Google et Meta accélèrent sur les agents IA grand public • Microsoft freine sur Copilot • Google lance un nouveau bracelet connecté • Les cyberarnaques vocales inquiètent • Le “shadow AI” fait des ravages en entreprise • Le robot humanoïde européen Calvin entre en action.⭐️ Découvrez Frogans, l'innovation française qui réinvente le Web [PARTENARIAT]===============Contenu détaillé de l'épisode :===============Musk avale xAI et s'allie à AnthropicElon Musk restructure son empire : sa start-up d'IA xAI est absorbée par SpaceX, qui devient la maison mère de ses activités d'intelligence artificielle. Dans le même temps, un accord stratégique est conclu avec Anthropic, qui utilisera les data centers Colossus pour faire tourner ses modèles Claude. Une manœuvre industrielle et énergétique d'ampleur, alors que Google envisagerait d'investir massivement dans Anthropic.Procès Musk–Altman : la guerre des origines d'OpenAILe procès opposant Elon Musk à Sam Altman se poursuit en Californie, mettant en lumière les tensions initiales autour de OpenAI. Derrière le débat sur la vocation non lucrative de l'organisation, se dessine une lutte de pouvoir et une divergence stratégique face à la montée de Google DeepMind. Les échanges révèlent les ambiguïtés du positionnement de Musk à l'époque.La justice française vise XEn France, le parquet de Paris ouvre une information judiciaire visant Elon Musk et Linda Yaccarino, ex-dirigeante du réseau X. La plateforme est soupçonnée de manque de transparence sur ses algorithmes et de mise en avant de contenus potentiellement illégaux. Une affaire sensible pour le réseau social, déjà sous pression réglementaire en Europe.Agents IA : Google et Meta prêts à tout savoir sur vousMeta et Google préparent des agents IA grand public capables de gérer courriels, agendas et tâches quotidiennes. Une évolution vers des assistants proactifs, bien au-delà du simple chatbot, qui pose frontalement la question de la confiance et de l'accès aux données personnelles. Le débat est au cœur du débrief transatlantique avec Bruno Guglielminetti, journaliste et auteur de Mon Carnet.Gemini Nano s'invite dans ChromeUn chercheur révèle que le navigateur Chrome installe discrètement Gemini Nano, un modèle d'IA local de 4 Go développé par Google. Officiellement destiné à renforcer la détection d'escroqueries directement sur l'ordinateur, ce déploiement soulève des questions sur la transparence et la gestion des ressources.Microsoft lève le pied sur CopilotAprès avoir intégré Copilot dans Windows et ses logiciels bureautiques, Microsoft semble ralentir. Un projet d'intégration de l'IA dans la console Xbox est abandonné, signe d'un possible ajustement stratégique face à un accueil utilisateur plus mitigé que prévu.Google se renforce dans la santé connectéeGoogle lance le bracelet Fitbit Air et rebaptise son application santé Google Health, avec l'intégration d'un coach IA premium. Objectif : concurrencer les écosystèmes d'Apple et Samsung sur le terrain du suivi sportif et du bien-être, en misant sur la personnalisation algorithmique.Appels silencieux : pas si simple de cloner votre voixDes appels téléphoniques muets ont relancé les craintes de clonage vocal par IA, après une alerte initiale de Bitdefender. En réalité, un simple “allô” ne suffit pas à recréer une voix exploitable : ces appels serviraient surtout à valider l'existence d'un numéro avant revente de bases de données frauduleuses.Shadow AI : la nouvelle faille des entreprises[PARTENARIAT] L'IA générative expose les organisations à des risques inédits de fuite de données et de développement non maîtrisé. Émilie Brochette, spécialiste IA et business chez Orange Cyberdéfense, détaille les dangers du “shadow AI”, ces usages incontrôlés de ChatGPT ou d'agents développés en interne sans validation des équipes sécurité. Une mutation profonde des pratiques qui impose sensibilisation, outils de contrôle et nouvelles politiques de gouvernance.Calvin, le robot humanoïde européen au travailLe co-inventeur du premier robot humanoïde européen, Jean-Louis Constanza, cofondateur de Wandercraft, présente Calvin 40, capable de porter jusqu'à 40 kilos en usine. Déployé chez Renault, ce robot issu de la technologie d'exosquelette vise les tâches pénibles et répétitives, avec un enjeu majeur de souveraineté industrielle face aux acteurs américains et chinois.Hébergé par Audiomeans.

The Musk v. OpenAI trial continues, which means so do the allegations and leaks surrounding some of the most influential people in tech. Nilay and David recount the most interesting and entertaining moments from the courtroom this week, before digging into what we've learned about when Sam Altman was fired. After that, the hosts discuss OpenAI's apparent plans to build a phone, which seem utterly necessary and utterly doomed, along with the new Fitbit Air and a truly strange new home robot. Finally, in the lightning round, it's time for the Hype Desk, Brendan Carr is a Dummy, the Chinese company that wants to make everything, and the next big rebrand for xAI. Further reading: Internal Tech Emails on X: "Sam Altman texts Mira Murat We are going through the removal of Sam Altman from OpenAI in detail. Toner is relating how Sam Altman's firing happened.

En esta ocasión con un programa que está 100 % centrado en la actualidad porque hay mucho que contar después de que hace unas horas Sony y Nintendo presentasen los resultados del año fiscal 2025 con ganancias, ventas de consolas y videojuegos...

The Little Xbox Details by Brad Sams
September 4, 2025 marked the launch of the beautiful pixel art metroidvania, Adventure of Samsara. On that same day, one other highly anticipated title came out that averted the gaze of many fans of the genre.

On this week's episode, Nathan is outnumbered by Australians when Alanah Pearce—games writer, voice actor, YouTuber, and filmmaker extraordinaire—joins the show (and also Luke is there). We discuss Alanah's new production company, Charred Pictures, and its goal of involving indie developers in the process of adapting games into movies and TV shows. We also talk about the overall state of video game adaptations and the glut of tales that have already been told. Then we dig into the controversial (at least, in Hollywood) element of Alanah's operation: She's working with YouTubers where possible to secure funding, which she believes makes perfect sense when they're fans of the games being adapted. What, in this day and age of content creators being everywhere, still causes film execs to balk at the idea? After that, we move on to an arguably even more consequential discussion: Star Fox looks fucked up now. But maybe that's not such a bad thing? Lastly, we throw up our hands at Xbox's inconsistent (to say the least) approach to AI and then come to the only remaining logical conclusion: Aftermath should be put in charge of Xbox.Credits- Hosts: Nathan Grayson, Luke Plunkett, and special guest Alanah Pearce- Podcast Production & Ads: Multitude- Subscribe to Aftermath!About The ShowAftermath Hours is the flagship podcast of Aftermath, a worker-owned, subscription-based website covering video games, the internet, and everything that comes after from journalists who previously worked at Kotaku, Vice, and The Washington Post. Each week, games journalism veterans Luke Plunkett, Nathan Grayson, Chris Person, Riley MacLeod, and Gita Jackson – though not always all at once, because that's too many people for a podcast – break down video game news, Remember Some Games, and learn about Chris' frankly incredible number of special interests. Sometimes we even bring on guests from both inside and outside the video game industry! I don't know what else to tell you; it's a great time. Simply by reading this description, you're already wasting time that you could be spending listening to the show.

Microsoft's earnings report went out last week, and the company spent a lot on AI in the quarter. Microsoft updates its customers on what it's done to address Windows 11 problems. And Xbox kills Copilot plans for the console. Microsoft Earnings Microsoft announced that it earned a net income of $31.8 billion on revenues of $82.9 billion in the previous quarter. Windows: 1.6 billion monthly active devices, a focus on quality after years of enshittification - but revenues from PC makers were down 2 percent YOY. Microsoft Edge "has taken share for 20 consecutive quarters," which isn't supported by the evidence. Bing "monthly active users reached one billion for the first time," raising questions about how Microsoft defines the term "user." Xbox: "The team is recommitting to our core fans and players, and shaping the future of play," new records for monthly active Xbox users and game streaming hours. AI: Capex spending in the quarter was $32 billion, down from previous quarter as previously described, but up 49 percent YOY. More earnings Apple, Google/Alphabet, and Amazon. AMD - Up because of AI datacenter. Qualcomm - Plus, Intel just hired away a key Qualcomm exec. Windows Microsoft shares an update about what it's done to address Windows 11 pain points so far. Marcus Ash is one of the good guys. Some of this is happening in Insider, some is rolling out to retail. Windows Insider Program and Windows Update improvements we discussed last week - two primary channels in WIP now. Simplifying AI experiences - fewer Copilot icons (Notepad, etc.). File Explorer improvements - performance, fewer hangs, better polish and consistency. Widgets - Feed will be off by default, fewer interruptions, no hover activate. System performance - Smaller memory footprint, more aggressive RAM restoration, and more. Soon: Taskbar updates, Start updates, and more to share at Build in June. Week D update arrives with a peek at May's Patch Tuesday. Major: Xbox Mode, AI agents on the Taskbar are the first two big features of 2026. Minor: Also adds File Explorer improvements, new haptic feedback effects, touch keyboard improvements, and more. Shocking new report that Microsoft Edge is incredibly insecure should surprise no one. AI Microsoft Agent 365 Platform is out of preview, supports local AI agents and Copilot Cowork Agent arrives on mobile with plugin support. Microsoft launches a Legal AI Agent in Word. Apple's plan to open up to multiple third-party AIs is a good one. Canonical's plan to add AI to Ubuntu is also good, but you're never going to believe what happened next. Xbox and Gaming Asha Sharma reorgs Xbox, kills Copilot on the console. Forza Horizon 6, more coming to Game Pass in May. Xbox April Update is out with updates for all platforms. Next Call of Duty will not ship on Xbox One, PS4. Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition is coming to the Mac for some reason. And finally, with the Supreme Court refusing to block the implementation of the ruling in Epic v. Apple, Microsoft's Xbox game store for mobile is one step closer to happening.
