A big unusual release date for #Tekken8 (Tekken 5 now follows in a February release) and 3 days after my brithday no-less.
Well, now I know what I want for my birthday in 2024!
People like him makes me ashamed to be a gamer.
Fuck gamers toxicity, wasn't the time or place and it was 100% NOT funny.
Bungie has confirmed that #Destiny2 next & the final Light saga expansion, The Final Shape, will go live on Feb 27, 2024.
Despite Bungie saying it before retracting a few years later, THIS IS NOT THE ENDING OF DESTINY and the game will keep being developed!

With a few hours remaining for Gamescom, Geoff Keighley confirmed that the 2023 edition of #TheGameAwards will go live on Thrusday December 7th from the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles.
It will be the 10th edition so I guess it will be a special one.

Axios reported this week, that Ubisoft thought on the #ImmortalsFenyxRising sequel to be inspired by Elden Ring (its organic discovery mechanics mainly) & The Legend OF Zelda: Wind Waker.
The game would have been set on a Polynesian archipelago of several islands.

Reminding you all that I AM NOT A LEGAL/MERGER expert!
I partially agree that CMA made Microsoft step a landmine after FTC's fiasco on #ActivisionBlizzard prem-injuction.
But then again, CMA STILL is on the fence regardless of this "petty victory" on delaying the inevitable.
Originally slated as a Plan B & now the WHOLE PLAN, Microsoft announced an agreement with #Ubisoft to buy the Cloud Gaming rights of Activision Blizzard to mitigate concerns of its ABK acquisition by the regulator CMA.
Under the restructured transaction, Microsoft will not be in a position either to release Activision Blizzard games exclusively on Xbox Cloud Gaming or to exclusively control the licensing terms of Activision Blizzard games for rival services.
On Ubisoft's end, the company will compensate Microsoft for the cloud streaming rights to Activision Blizzard’s games through a one-off payment and through a market-based wholesale pricing mechanism, including an option that supports pricing based on usage.
Also, Ubisoft can add Activision Blizzard games on Ubisoft+ on the UK market.
Interestingly, the CMA responded that the Ubisoft deal would also mean that games needs to be reached through Linux-based computers & not exclusively on Windows computers (probably macOS too).
Finally & to add a little pressure, the CMA confirmed that this development and remade deal needs new scrutiny, which has a deadline date of Oct 18th, 2023.
Hypothetically CMA taking this long, puts the ABK's Termination Fee raise if the deal fell agains Microsoft in effect.

I understand that I should not be complaining if I am using the free tier...
But to TeamViewer not properly function because I needed to "migrate" or what they call to turn on the new GUI without any proper communication to let me know before hand, wouldn't hurt a email...
If the ongoing conversation that X (fka Twitter) will indeed fail (as Elon Musk warned as a possibility if monetization without advertising didn't fly) I will raise again that new and emerging social networks, free of egoistic power are an alternative!
The Elder Scrolls Online should have read The Elder Scrolls Arena.
Autocorrect is gaming with me...
For the remainder of August, my #Gaming schedule will be shared with Halo 2 campaign (Xbox), Exoprimal (PC) and secondary priority, The Elder Scrolls Online, Cyberpunk 2077 and TLOZ #TearsOfTheKingdom.
From Sept 1 UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE, it will be #Starfield only-grinding.
The rumors became true!
Mario & Luigi on Super Mario Bros. Wonder are indeed voiced by new actors so officially, Charles Martinet last stint as Mario was in Super Mario Odyssey.
Lol. I kept open-minded about the movie but for the games and if was up to me... Nope!
After its publisher updated quietly release date expectations for #REPLACED, their developers updated the state of the game's development & a TLDR, they have been busy with streching details with pixel-arts mixed with 3D environment.

I got people raising about some rumors that actually, Super Mario Bros. Wonder IS IN FACT the first Super Mario Bros. game without Martinet's voice or using pre-recorded stuff from other games.
So there is a possibility that Super Mario Odyssey is actually the last game.

Super Mario voice since Super Mario 64, Charles Martinet, will be accepting a new role in #Nintendo as "Mario Ambassador" for Nintendo, which makes him unable to reprise the voice of Mario, marking Super Mario Bros. Wonder as his last game.
No words on who is replacing him.
This is the 2nd time that I leave for work & found out that my TimeViewer instance on personal PC is disconnected despite updating and checking it out before leaving.
I needed to make some to-dos, so I can fully engage on gaming tonight.
It is Monday all right... Good morning!
And... Finally decided to give #Windows11 a try via Windows Update.
Context, I always preferred clean installation but having already tested Windows 11 on work's PC, the new storage management and more control on deleting crap is the big motivation to given a vote of confidence.
