CheatCC says "It's almost August, which means only one more month for those of you in school to cram in some vacation gaming time. I suppose you could also go outside, but that's where the bears live. Better to play it safe, and play the upcoming Kinectimals Now With Bears instead. Not only does it have a hilarious title, Kinectimals bears want to be your friend instead of knocking over your car to get at the delicious sandwiches inside. Anyhow, on to this week's industry insanity!"
Half-Life and Portal writer Erik Wolpaw has detailed how his team has been using Generative AI for research and development at Valve.
Valve has responded to New York Attorney General Letitia James' lawsuit against the firm, stating it does not believe that lootboxes in its Counter-Strike 2, Dota 2, and Team Fortress 2 games unlawfully encourage minors to gamble, adding it was "disappointed" to see the action go ahead despite efforts to "educate" the NYAG about virtual items since "early 2023."
Stupid is as stupid does.
