Why would they release it this year if the last game sold five million more copies in the last three months? Think they will want to keep tugging on that cow while it still has milk.
I’m glad that some of the game will be outside of the bureau. That was the one big drawback for me in Control - the environments got boring after a while.
Always wondered if Peep Show was popular in the UK or more of a cult thing. Show is hilarious and endlessly quotable (plus Olivia Coleman 😊). People like Coldplay and voting for Nazis, you can’t trust people.
Happy New Year everyone. Sammy and the team are great, but it is the community that keeps me coming back. Here is to more in 2026. Everything was beautiful and nothing hurt.
So you’re telling me that a Sonic racing game is better than Silksong (assuming Silksong is the game that misses out in the last four spots)? Suddenly IGN doesn’t look so bad.
It is a shame that Expedition 33 was ever even nominated in this category, especially considering the number of nods that it got overall. It took a space (and a win) from other truly independent games that could have used the recognition and spotlight. Remember how Balatro’s sales exploded after it won best indie game?
Atlantis seems appropriate in this context. There cannot be any backlash about cultural appropriation of artifacts if said artifacts are from a mythical civilization.
@11001100110zero I was referring to OpenAI, the Sam Altman company headquartered in San Francisco. On October 1, they signed two simultaneous deals with Samsung and SK Hynix (neither of which knew the other deal existed) swallowing up forty percent of the global supply of DRAM. This, to me, seems like the kind of thing that antitrust laws were made to prevent. Government oversight should be able to prohibit a single American company (which OpenAI is) from gaining this type of competitive advantage in the marketplace.
I am afraid that the OpenAI deal to tie up forty percent of the world’s DRAM supply is going to greatly affect the price of the PS6. I honestly do not see how that is legal and why the media is not giving more attention to the story. During the pandemic, when there was a shortage of computer chips, there were articles everywhere. And this is different than GPU prices during the height of crypto mining. That was individuals buying up all the cards for their mining rigs. This is one company responsible for the supply constraints. Certainly there must be some anti-monopoly legislation or government oversight that could prevent a single company from controlling that much of the supply chain.
@sanderson72 The Japanese language only model doesn’t cost less to manufacture. Actually, Sony is probably selling it at a loss to carve back market share in Japan. The point of it being Japanese language only is to prevent scalpers from reselling the cheaper model in other territories.
I just do not understand how anyone could complain about this month’s selection. Several games that I want to play but didn’t want to spend the money on, and the one that I did, Still Wakes the Deep, is fantastic.
Anyone looking for another Silk Song fix should check out Afterimage. It’ is a gorgeous hand drawn metroidvania with tight controls, and it is on sale for a fiver in the store (80% off). I actually liked it more than Nine Sols, even if it didn’t get the same attention.

Btw, Daniel Craig was 51 when he played 007 in the last Bond film. Tom Cruise is 63, and he’s still running.
