Nintendo Switch Sports Review – Better Together

For the past five years, there’s been a Wii Sports-sized hole in the Nintendo Switch’s library. A lot has changed since that game’s monumental success 16 years ago, including the acute existential dread I felt of being 15 years old. Not only has my teenage angst fizzled out, but so has the trend of motion control in games. Some things should stay in the past, and one could make the case that motion-controlled sports games are among them.

Thankfully, that isn’t the case and, if anything, Nintendo Switch Sports makes a strong case for why. Not because its motion controls are as revelatory as the original, but because the same sense of brazen fun that came from playing Wii Sports with a good group of friends or family is as potent as ever in its successor. On the court of modern day video games, Switch Sports definitely makes some perplexing missteps along the way, but ultimately puts on a worthy performance.

Sunless Sea Review

The wonder that exploration brings within a game is finite. Once we discover something, we can never discover it again even if we start over. A world fully revealed is suddenly a more static place than when it started. It’s at this nexus point between the potential and the static that Failbetter’s Sunless Sea finds itself in. Though it sports an immensely imaginative setting and fantastic writing, Sunless Sea’s roguelike-inspired elements don’t quite gel with the longform exploration you’re meant to embark on.

Built in the mold of such games as Sid Meier’s Pirates and Koei’s Uncharted Waters series, Sunless Sea sets you loose on The Unterzee with a simple ship, a crew, some supplies, and a blank sea chart that slowly fills in as you explore the zee. That last bit is crucial to understanding where Sunless Sea’s heart lies, as your primary instinct in this game will almost always be to sail for the black spots to see what’s there. Your reward? A cavalcade of islands and shorelin…

Illinois Senator Submits Bill to Legalize Online Casinos

SBC Americas reported that this legislation would allow casinos and racetracks in Illinois to apply for an internet gaming license, which can include up to three skins. The license will cost $250,000 and will be regulated by the Illinois Gaming Board.

The New Legislation Introduces a 15% Tax Rate

The new bill introduced by Sen. Castro stipulates that the tax rate on adjusted gross revenue would be set at 15%, and operators will also be able to deduct promotional credits. Unlike Illinois sports betting, there will be no in-person registration requirement for online casinos.

However, the legislation does address responsible gambling and diversity efforts. Operators must establish a self-exclusion list and display responsible gambling language on their websites. They will also need to provide annual reports on their diversity goals and progress.

The bill has also set out shor…

You Can Now Read The Full Script For Spider-Man- No Way Home

Over a month after its premiere, Spider-Man: No Way Home is still topping the box office, working its way into the ranks of the most successful films ever made. Now, you can read the film’s full script from start to finish, if you want to enjoy the nostalgic fave in a brand-new format. As you may expect, both this article and the screenplay itself will contain spoilers for No Way Home.

The full script has been released by Deadline, as part of the site’s “Read the Screenplay” series, which features scripts from films that will feature in 2022’s awards race. You can read the full script here. The screenplay is titled “Serenity Now,” a decoy title (and Seinfeld reference) used thanks to the high level of secrecy around the Spider-Man sequel.

Massachusetts to Initiate Online Lottery Targeting 2025 Launch

Following prolonged discussions and minimal progress, the Massachusetts Lottery is set to embrace the digital era. Governor Maura Healey’s recent approval of the nearly $58 billion state budget includes provisions for online lottery games. This strategic move is aimed at bolstering funds for a grant program dedicated to early childhood education and care, marking a significant pivot in the state’s approach to lottery sales.

Funding education through digital expansion:

The decision to introduce online lottery games is part of a broader effort to modernize the state’s lottery system and expand its reach. Officials project that the new online platform, which might take about 16 months to launch, could significantly enhance the lottery’s contribution to educational and social services. By the end of 2025, Massachusetts residents are expected to see the online lottery system fully…

Osaka and Nagasaki Outline Responsible Gambling Plans

Both prefectures have announced their plans and intentions to deal with problem addiction and outlined detailed plans in a bid to secure the central government’s good graces and win the right to host the first integrated resort in the country, but also act in a timely and intervening manner against the potential harms of gambling legalization.

Nagasaki and Osaka Outline Responsible Gambling Schemes

While the IR will focus only on foreign gambling, the prefectures have issued new draft schemes that are designed based on the current Basic Law on Gambling Addiction. The law is designed to help protect consumers as the country heads towards a more liberalized gambling industry, with a strong focus on casinos. Both Osaka and Nagasaki are now working to actively launch the first integrated resort, contingent on an approval by the central government.

Osaka finished the year by outl…

Sienna Miller Is the Best Thing About Horizon

Kevin Costner has sunk a mint of his own money into his projected four-part western epic Horizon; the first installment, Horizon: An American Saga — Chapter 1, is now making its rounds in cinemas, as Costner has always intended; he believes wholeheartedly in the big-screen experience. This first Horizon entry is a bit snoozy, albeit handsome-looking. Costner, who also co-wrote the script (with Jon Baird and Mark Kasdan), may not have the best control of this sprawling story peopled with a giant and somewhat confusing roster of characters. But his judgment is sound in at least one area: Sienna Miller plays Frances Kittredge, a pioneer wife who survives an Apache attack on the homestead she’s set up with her husband and two children. And if this first chapter of Horizon too often drags its boot-heels in the dust, it crackles to life every minute Miller is onscreen.

Miller has been working in movies and TV for 25 years now; pretty much ever…

Artists and developers worried about Unity’s AI programs have been given a big shrug-

Unity has caused concern and exhaustion among some game developers with its new UnityMuse and UnitySentis tools, both of which it revealed yesterday, with many professional artists and developers lancing the tools for being either impractical, unethical, or legally dubious.

The law in different countries on the use of AI programs—which often scrape the internet for art, writing, and programming without their creator’s consent—remains unsettled, with lawsuits angled at both the tools themselves and the companies using them.

In the wake of this unstable legal status, one would expect Unity to have its AI-generated ducks in a row before sinking a bunch of money into tools like this. The first question on many developers’ lips has been “What dataset did you train these on?” But Unity’s announcement answered none of these concerns.

Unity’s mentioned that it has “licensed third-party LLMs” is the kicker for many here. A LLM, or a large language model…

Brand synergizing strikes again as Destiny 2 gets D&D crossover cosmetics, and dammit, I do kind of want the owlbear sparrow-

I’m conflicted. On one hand, the just-revealed Dungeons & Dragons crossover cosmetics for Destiny 2 evoke the same “sensory whiplash” that Morgan Park described back in November when writing about shooter skin collabs. On the other, my Titan would look rad riding an Owlbear. Who among us doesn’t enjoy an occasional sip from the homogenizing slurry of brand synergy?

Given our post-Baldur’s Gate 3 world and Wizards of the Coast’s recent fondness for Magic: The Gathering crossover collaborations, these Faerûn-inspired armor sets were probably on somebody’s Destiny 2 comarketing bingo card. When the cosmetics arrive alongside The Final Shape in June, you’ll be able to buy a suit of high fantasy draconic plate armor for Titans, a cyberpunk-styled take on D&D’s displacer beast for Hunters, and a set of mind flayer-themed robes for Warlocks—complete with a tentacle-heavy helmet. Sincere congratulations to anyone who can successfully style that last …

Corsair’s new cases at Computex include its biggest ever beast and a cut-price contender with full wrap-around glass-

At the Corsair booth on the Computex show floor a couple of new cases caught our eye. Well, you can hardly miss the new Corsair 9000D, it’s absolutely massive. But it’s probably the new Corsair 3500X that would get our cash. Hold that thought.

Successor to the beastly 1000D, the new Corsair 9000D is ridiculous. We don’t have measurements, but this thing is big enough to support two separate PCs inside, the second one a mini-ITX, enabling a secondary streaming setup without impacting your gaming rig’s latency one little bit.

There’s also enough room for multiple independent liquid cooling loops, up to four 480 mm radiators and, really, anything you can throw at it. We haven’t got pricing, but if you’re in the market for this kind of thing, do you even care?

Of course, we do tend to care about value, which is where the new Corsair 3500X comes in. It’s a more standard-sized ATX tower which offers that wrap-around goldfish bowl thing with two sides of the case…

A magical Windows XP activation tool has been hiding in plain sight on Reddit for the last year-

If the word “Pentium” or dreamy photos of rolling green hills ignite a nostalgic fire within you, prepare to get pumped: recent developments have ensured that we’ll be able to activate Windows XP forever, without needing an internet connection. On Friday, The Register highlighted a new way to successfully activate XP without the use of a keygen—although the “new” bit is the strangest part of this story, because it seems like this method has actually been floating around for months, or even years, without much attention.

For years now the go-to way to activate a fresh Windows XP install relies on a tool called WindowsXPKg, available on Github. It’s a keygen that can generate endless product keys for XP. But that product key is only enough to get you an installation ID, which you need to punch into Microsoft’s telephone activation service to get a confirmation ID that can be used to finally activate your dang computer. Phew! That’s a convoluted process, but it’s n…

Final Fantasy 7 Remake’s final scene gets a script change 2 days before its sequel drops, and it’s going down about as well as you’d expect-

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth doesn’t have a set-in-stone PC port date yet, but it’s still coming to the PS5 in a couple of days. In the run-up, the Remake’s received a new patch. While the official singular note is just “fixes to several bugs”, Square Enix has actually snuck in a change to the english localisation that has fans up-in-arms. Spoilers for the ending of Final Fantasy 7 Remake, in case that wasn’t clear.

The original line is spoken by everyone’s favourite flower girl Aerith, just as the gang makes their way out of Midgar. The original line: “I miss it… the steel sky” has been replaced with the markedly less poetic “This sky… I don’t like it”. This has gone down about as well as you’d expect:

I mean, look. On face-value I agree that this seems like a weird step backwards, but it’s sometimes my solemn duty to dig into the reasons why a given discourse is happening. I’ll try my best. 

As I understand it, this patch is mainly …

Hi-Fi Rush lives- PUBG owner Krafton has acquired Tango Gameworks from Xbox

Three months after Microsoft announced its closure, Hi-Fi Rush studio Tango Gameworks has found a new home with PUBG publisher Krafton. In an announcement today, the South Korean publisher describes the move as its “first significant investment in the Japanese market”.

According to Krafton’s statement the move won’t impact the availability of Tango Gamesworks’ back catalogue, which also includes The Evil Within and Ghostwire: Tokyo. It also says it will collaborate with Xbox and ZeniMax “to ensure a smooth transition and maintain continuity at Tango Gameworks, allowing the talented team to continue developing the Hi-Fi Rush IP and explore future projects”.

Reading between the lines, I think that means Krafton either has no interest in making further The Evil Within and Ghostwire games, or else it hasn’t purchased those IPs. I’ve reached out to Krafton for clarification and will update if I hear back. One thing seems pretty certain, though: Hi-Fi Rush is not dead.
