MINING companies and property holders wrestling with native title requirements to document traditional cultural heritage could benefit from a novel application of computer game technology.
A computer simulation that allows users to explore Sydney Cove prior to white settlement in 1788 provides a glimpse of the sorts of applications that mining companies could develop, its creators say.
Called Virtual Warrane, the simulation is on display at Sydney's Customs House until May 6. Virtual Warrane is part of a broader initiative to capture indigenous knowledge on computer systems, which can then be used to protect, preserve and promote Aboriginal knowledge.

Nintendo announced Friday that several of its long-time partners, including DeNA, will sell off some ¥300 billion in company shares.

Digital intelligence and analytics firm Sensor Tower has released its State of Gaming 2026 report, revealing flat growth in mobile game revenue, double-digit growth for PC and console gaming, and another record year for PC, with more games sold on Steam than ever before.

Kotaku writes: "A Resident Evil Requiem review published by long-standing UK gaming news site Videogamer has been removed from Metacritic after readers pointed out it was written by a fake AI journalist who doesn’t actually exist. Videogamer‘s human masthead was gutted last week, sources tell Kotaku, and the site has been publishing apparent genAI slop ever since."
Genuinely well done on metacritic for taking such an immediate hard stance. Not often, if at all, you see that these days. Credit where it’s due.
This is really sad on so many levels. Not least of all the fact that all the human lost their jobs to a language model. Can we block all content coming from Videogamer site. Can we make a rule that content sumitted to N4G must be greated by a human being.
I'm gonna report every Videogamer article I see on N4G from now on so just putting it out there.
It is amazing but I'm starting to slightly miss the moron gaming press we had in the 2010s because at least they were human.
