Great, now we'll never get the plot payoff for the Chevy Tahoe! I'll never sleep soundly again!

Man, just looking at that still, you really have to wonder why they dropped the ball so bad. The practical effects in season 1 were stellar, and even some of the Covenant stuff wasn't bad. Their decision to focus on Chief as a person really feels like they thought Halo was a silly little video game for kids, so they had it make it all mature.
Personally all they had to do was make Halo, but grimmer. Actually capture the horror of the human race having to fight a technologically superior foe. None of the stupid "the Forerunners were behind everything" bullshit that Halo has always struggled with in the first place.
Here's an upload from the official Sonic YouTube page from 5 days ago that is a comparison video with SA2 Shadow stages and Generations stages.

There will be Olympic games in e-sports, starting 2025.
In Saudi Arabia in 2025, then held every second year between the Summer and Winter games.
I don't care about e-sports, and I feel the Olympic games as a brand get diluted if an event is held every year.

not sure if this will affect slay the spire 2?
There's an event called Asian Games, where countries that are in Asia compete in various sporting events. In 2022, they added e-sports category, featuring DOTA 2, League of Legends, Street Fighter V, EA FC Online, PUBG Mobile, and bunch of other games.
The PUBG Mobile generated huge controversies, because instead of shooting at other players the participants were forced to run a shooting range course. Apparently Chinese government had a hand in this, for the purpose of "An event about peace and sportsmanship, not violence"
It's so weird, because both DOTA 2 and LoL are about killing off other team and get the objectives. Korea dominated the LOL as usual, and some Chinese community got salty over it
Ubisoft shoots down delaying Star Wars Outlaws over widespread graphics complaints: "The level of quality of the world and the experience is really very high"
"We are really leveraging our engine, and I think people will love it"

Because not delaying a game has worked so well before, and Ubisoft is totally trust-worthy when it comes to graphics! /s
Well, we know anyone that is LGBTQ ain't going over there. I can't blame them, and will not be watching either.
Holy shit, someone at the EA finally pulled their head out of the ass and made the right decision for once
SAG-AFTRA Calls Strike Against Major Video Game Studios
Last September, nearly 35,000 of the union's members voted to authorize a strike. "Enough is enough,” stated union president Fran Drescher.
www.hollywoodreporter.com
The Actor's guild are striking again, this time to get more decent compensation (salaries have not kept up with inflation) and to stop them from scraping their acting in video games for AI. 98 % of the members was in favor of the strike when it was authorized last september.
I have a feeling this strike was piggybacked by that Activision union a day earlier:SAG-AFTRA Calls Strike Against Major Video Game Studios

Activision Blizzard's ‘World of Warcraft’ game developers vote to unionize
Workers on the development team for hit video game ‘World of Warcraft’ have voted to unionize, marking the latest entrant in a wave of unionizing efforts in the video game industry.

Best of luck to all protestors and union members! But I wonder who they can direct the demands to, especially after the merger w/ MS?
Huh. I guess Microsoft kept their word.I have a feeling this strike was piggybacked by that Activision union a day earlier:

This is the kind of situation in which I don't at all mind being proven wrong.
To be clear, me quoting you was not me going "nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah, you made the wrong call~~", it was me thinking you might appreciate to get an update on this.
In particular since I consider being suspicious of big companies a healthy attitude.
Didn't know it was happening in the first place, but this could actually be a good thing. Over-budgetting anything rarely leads to good products
You have a point, but the grandeur of Rapture added loads to the ignominy of its fall. I'm not sure Netflix is capable of coming up with something equivalent.
Maybe they could still pull off the grandeur if the original idea was just to throw moar cgi into it, but part of the cuts involved scaling back on that and let practical effects do most of the of the heavy lifting.
Damn, Activision ran the numbers on skill based matchmaking by slowly turning it off without telling anybody and measuring the results
