  1. PlayStation “Auto-Play” Patent Alludes to a Future Where Gamers No Longer Need to Play Their Games

  2. Deadpool & Wolverine Official Trailer and New Posters Released by Marvel Studios

    The trailer's music seemed strangely appropriate for a couple of pre-Madonnas.

  3. Fallout Players Surge on Steam as Amazon Series Reveals Phone Number That Viewers Can Call for an Important Date

    I've tried a couple times, but I just haven't caught on to the Fallout series. I don't know why. I've enjoyed the Elder Scrolls games from as far back as the old DOS days and Arena. Maybe it's different with swords and spells vs. a shooter. IDK ...

  5. Todd Howard on Potential Starfield and Elder Scrolls Shows: “I’ll Probably Say No”

    I don't know if Skyrim would be a good movie in and of itself, but more broadly The Elder Scrolls depicting the confluence and history of each of the race-origin lands interspersed with requisite Daedric meddling ... that might be a show.

  9. Amazon Has Reportedly Obtained Permission to Use Parts of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Silmarillion and Peter Jackson Could Be Adapting It to Film

    That's my recollection as well. But it does explain the history and state of Middle Earth during the Hobbit and LOTR trilogy (kind of). For example, explanation of who or what are Gandalf and Saruman (and other wizards that did not appear - or if only mentioned in passing - in the trilogy)...

  12. Discord to Start Showing Ads for Gamers in the Coming Week

    Every social media platform that derives revenue from targeted advertisements or that uses an algorithm to feed articles (and thus advertisement revenue) devolves into an echo chamber. It isn't unique to Discord. My commentary was more on the state of social media than it was regarding Discord...

  13. Discord to Start Showing Ads for Gamers in the Coming Week

  20. Core i9-14900KS Runs So Hot, Intel Is Allowing Delidded Systems from Select PC Makers with Full Warranty

    This smells like marketing spin. Are the CPUs really delidded by the System Integrators, or is Intel selling chips without lids to special customers? Seems the latter would be more economical and have less risk of damaging the chip during the wholesale delidding process.
