One other weird week of 2022 within the bag. I’m not saying this has been a nasty yr, however oof, it’s been the most. What occurred this week? Goodness gracious. A hacker bought maintain of footage of Rockstar’s in-development sport and printed it on-line. Logitech is making a Steam Deck competitor. And apparently it’s time to revisit Cyberpunk 2077? Like I mentioned, weird week.
The GTA VI leak was a doozy by itself, however I used to be a bit disheartened to see how vital everybody was of it. In case you wanted to listen to it from me: There’s (most likely) nothing flawed with Grand Theft Auto VI, based mostly on the footage. Video games don’t appear like video games till just about launch time. That’s why sport publishers pay third-party filmmakers to make cinematic trailers for video games in growth. I’d be a hypocrite if I dissed pre-launch speculative criticism, however I don’t need anybody to jot down GTA VI off as a result of they noticed a model of it they have been by no means meant to see.
The opposite stuff that occurred this week feels nearly fluffy and lightweight by comparability. Logitech’s handheld looks as if it might need some good guts, and it’ll run Sport Cross and GeForce Now proper out of the field. Additionally, it appears the Cyberpunk Netflix promoting blitz labored, as 1000’s of gamers are both returning to the sport or making an attempt it for the primary time. I hold listening to that it’s good now, however since my points with the sport weren’t solely with the bugs and glitches, I’m not keen to take a position any extra time in it.
In private information, I’m going to spend your complete weekend taking part in the early entry model of Slime Rancher 2. I’ve been ready for this jiggly, candy-bright sim sport because it was introduced final yr. I say with no disgrace that I put a whole bunch of hours into the unique, and I need to escape to its less complicated world once more. If anybody wants me, I can be vacuuming up blissful, smiling jelly creatures and harvesting their droppings for money.
