With a state of play coming, and Parappa's 30th anniversary this year...I hope we get something like this!
What do you think? Will we get anything for Parappa's 30th?

STJV: Quantic Dream's 'Star Wars Eclipse' still in Complicated Development as Cancelled 'Spellcasters' Spent 8 Years in Dev + Mismanagement disaster and 95 jobs at risk
Key Quotes
>"One quarter of the company’s workers are under threat: this adds up to 95 lost jobs."
>This project, started 8 years ago and led by Guillaume de Fondaumière, David Cage and Grégorie Diaconu, was supposed to be a “reasonably-sized” project and was planned for a much earlier release. Over all these years, nobody questioned the business model or how the game was to become profitable. Catastrophic project management resulted in iteration after iteration, exhausting the team and leading production straight to disaster.
>It’s sad to say, nobody is surprised by this outcome. Worker representatives have sounded the alarm about the project’s colossal risk level numerous times. In front of employees, management arrogantly explained that success was a given for Spellcasters Chronicles, thanks to “30 years of experience” of the decision-makers. In front of the workers’ council, management refused to consider other scenarios and to plan accordingly. Failure was never an option, never thought about, never planned for: incompetence led us here today. Workers pay for management’s misguided ways.
>Management is trying to lay off the entirety of the Spellcasters Chronicles team, and pretends that this team’s skills have no link at all with those of the Star Wars Eclipse team – even after training.
>The same causes lead to the same problems: Star Wars Eclipse entered production at the same time as Spellcasters, with the same directors, and its development is proving just as complicated.

What in the world is this?
I don’t usually use cloud game as all the games I play are bought/downloaded. But, my little girl wanted to play something so I let her via cloud and this weird cursor like thing is smack in the middle of the screen… how do you get rid of it? Doesn’t seem to bother me but it’s oddly frustrating me 😅

Good news is after 10 plus years of not cleaning my PS4, last night I made the decision to finally to take it apart and clean it. Bad news is I have an extra screw. Still works though
I lost my duo yesterday
I'm writing this with a heavy heart. Yesterday, my long-time gaming friend online know as KSI Abolic passed away. We go back about 15 years, having met on Xbox Live when we were just 15 or 16 years old.
We grew up together through our headsets, meeting on Halo Reach custom lobbys and enjoying the company of Halo 3s Sniper v Mongoose chase maps. We played everything under the sun, loved Halo, Red Dead 1 and some toxic trolling on Halo Wars 1 and 2, and an isanse 10 year Minecraft world. But one of my favorite early memories was loading into Battlefield 3, especially on Firestorm where whenever he took the pilot's seat of the transport heli, he designated his call sign as "Burger King" throughout the match, i had to refer to him as Burger King to get transport from those two annoying hills snipers would sit on. So that we could drop c4s. As the years went on, our gaming evolved into an annual tradition: every year around Halloween, we couldn't wait for the new Dark Pictures co-op game to release so we could play through the horror games together. This year, Directive 8020 hits hard.
The universe worked in crazy ways for us too. When I was around 25, I ended up working with his girlfriend. I used that connection to pull off a massive surprise road trip so we could finally link up and meet in person. I brought my xbox and everything to keep our streaks and gaming sessions alive. Going from teenage squeakers in a lobby to real friendship duos hanging out after a decade is something I’ll always cherish.
It’s incredibly heavy knowing I won't see his gamertag light up anymore. Lobbies are going to be empty without you. Safe flying, Burger King. Until we drop into the same match again, rest in peace. GG, my friend.
Please cherish who you meet and take every game or moment as the last. You truly never know what could happen.
