A second test campaign used the actual two-bladed design that will fly on SkyFall. These blades are slightly…
I’ve been at Kotaku for three weeks now and have already been hard at work blessing and/or cursing you all with my weird niche interests and opinions. You’ve already heard me ramble about a spelling bee game show and a video game that doesn’t want you to play it. But it has been suggested to me that, on a semi-regular basis, you all might be forced to consider my thoughts on a tiny little video game company that’s just breaking out into the mainstream in a big way. You know. Nintendo! Of the big three console makers, I think it’s…
Philosopher Nick Bostrom recently posted a paper, where he postulated that a small chance of AI annihilating all humans might be worth the risk, because advanced AI might relieve humanity of “its universal death sentence.” That upbeat gamble is quite a leap from his previous dark musings on AI, which made him a doomer godfather. His 2014 book Superintelligence was an early examination of AI’s existential risk. One memorable thought experiment: An AI tasked with making paper clips winds up destroying humanity because all those resource-needy people are an impediment to paper clip production. His more recent book, Deep Utopia,…
Resident Evil Requiem‘s latest update is out now on all platforms, and besides some boring bug fixes, this free patch adds a whole new game mode to Capcom’s recently released survival horror sequel. It’s called “Leon Must Die Forever,” and it’s a replayable roguelike action-focused mode starring, you guessed it, Leon S. Kennedy and his quips. Back in March, just a few weeks after Resident Evil Requiem launched to universal acclaim, Capcom posted a video message from Resident Evil Requiem director Koshi Nakanishi on Twitter, teasing story DLC and a new mini-game update were coming in the future. The story DLC isn’t here yet,…
Let me start off by saying that we should have made a “5309” reference, a miss on our part.AMD has a very good financial report, let the Josh take wash over you.Steam controller launches, sells out, and you probably don’t have one.32GB was the minimum. Then it wasn’t. Microsoft, so trustworthy.Also plain text never hurt anyway. And so much more! Thanks to our sponsor this week: Zapier!Bring the power an AI to any workflow – don’t just talk about it: ACT! Check out Zapier and their orchestration platform. This show cannot go on without you – you know who you…
Billionaire California gubernatorial candidate Tom Steyer is rolling out a new proposal that would guarantee jobs with benefits for workers displaced by artificial intelligence. He’s the first state-wide candidate to make such a pledge.The plan, which builds on a broader AI policy framework Steyer released in March, promises to make California “the first major economy in the world” to ensure “good-paying” jobs to workers impacted by AI. To do so, Steyer tells WIRED he plans to build off a previous proposal to introduce a “token tax” which would tax big tech companies “a fraction of a cent for every unit…
Fallout 4 is a fine game. But for many, it marks the point whereat which developer Bethesda stopped making the super RPG-ish games they loved and instead became the studio that would bring us Starfield. But now, thanks to a talented modder, you can play one of Bethesda’s most beloved old RPGs, The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, inside Fallout 4 via the game’s PipBoy. As spotted by PC Gamer, modder RPGKing117 has spent the last few weeks getting a specially modded version of the open-source port of Morrowind (OpenMW) up and running on Fallout 4‘s PipBoy. And after “countless hours of…
Playing a bad hand well That may sound like a lot to wrap your head around for a game that is playable in 15 to 20 minutes, but it’s a surprisingly accessible experience for the most part. The game serves up plenty of explanations and news articles that you can click on to better understand the real-world context and in-game consequences. However, each ship approved for transit tends to carry a greater cost or trade-off as the game progresses over 10 playable days between March 3 and April 13, 2026. You have the choice of not sending any ships through…
Slay the Spire 2 just received its chunkiest beta patch yet, and while there are numerous balancing changes, bug fixes, and new pieces of content to go over, fans are only currently interested in one big change patch 0.105.0 brings: the Doormaker is dead. In case you missed the context behind the controversial Doormaker boss, the first beta branch patch for Slay the Spire 2, all the way back at the end of March, made some big changes to the Act 3 fight. Doormaker was completely overhauled, adding a new mechanic that saw it swap between three phases that permanently…
The main antagonist of Toy Story 5, in theaters this summer, is a green, frog-shaped kids’ tablet named Lilypad, a genius new villain for the beloved Pixar franchise. But if Pixar had its ear to the ground, it might have used an AI kids’ toy instead.AI toys are seemingly everywhere, marketed online as friendly companions to children as young as three, and they’re still a largely unregulated category. It’s easier than ever to spin up an AI companion, thanks to model developer programs and vibe coding. In 2026, they’ve become a go-to trend in cheap trinkets, lining the halls of…
