Kevin Conroy found recording the Arkham games frustrating- ‘‘What the f–k do they want me to say-’-

An official Warner Bros. interview has resurfaced featuring the late Kevin Conroy, the actor best-known for his lengthy stints as the voice of Batman in the animated series and Arkham games, who died in November last year. While the topic under discussion is mostly his time on the animated show (and series co-creator Bruce Timm is also in there), Conroy at one point begins discussing his time on the Arkham games and not, it must be said, in a wholly positive light.

The full clip can be seen above (spotted by fandomwire) but the necessary context for this is that Conroy’s just been discussing the difference in feel between recording for a radio play, where all the actors are in the same room together with their scripts, and the process necessary for recording videogam…

If you’re looking for new ways to scratch your Baldur’s Gate 3 itch, and can get to London somehow next May, then the recently announced Symphony of the Realms concert is worth knowing about. The game’s soundtrack, composed by Borislav Slavov will, for the first time be performed live in concert at the Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall, London, on May 4, 2024.

Internet speeds 1.2 million times faster than the US average are possible using the current fibre optic cable network. How does 301,000,000 Mbps sound–

Underneath my road lies a cable on which, like many, my whole digital world relies. Fibre optic cables have become increasingly standard for modern high-speed internet connections, but even these super-highways of speed are limited in their capacity. Thanks to the work of some British researchers, however, those very same cables may be able to provide connection speeds that are massively faster than those we currently rely on.

A team of scientists and researchers at Aston University have developed an optical processor that takes advantage of previously untapped frequency bands, allowing standard fibre cables to transmit data at a much higher speed than previously thought (via Fudzilla). The researchers managed to achieve a data transfer rate of up to 301 terabits per second throug…

Steam’s 2023 Year in Review breaks down exactly how you blew the past 12 months on videogames-

2023 is almost at an end, and if you find yourself wondering what you’ve done with yourself over the past 365 days, the Steam Year in Review is here to fill you in with a rundown of the games you played, the achievements you earned, and other bits of gaming-related trivia.

Of course, this likely isn’t the whole story: Most of us have spent at least a little time horsing around in games on GOG, the Epic Store, and whatever other online storefronts you frequent. But we all spend a lot of time on Steam, and so for the average person this is the real tale of the tape.

Steam’s Year in Review page covers covers pretty much everything of note, from the games you played the most over the year to how you compare to the median Steam user, the percentage of new releases versus older st…

The devs of this ‘freaky and grotesque’ adventure game about a Russian Orthodox nun left Moscow after the invasion of Ukraine, and they’re out ‘to show that people and authorities are not the same thing’-

Not many games have a story like Indika, a game about a 19th century Russian Orthodox nun journeying to the centre of her soul with an “unusual, horn-headed companion.” Drawing inspiration from Dostoevsky and Bulgakov and dripping with dark humour, Indika tells a tale of religion and authority, madness and belief.

But also, not many games have a story like Indika, whose developer Odd Meter left Russia when the country invaded Ukraine in February last year. Calling the invasion an “insane crime” perpetrated to “satisfy the ambitions of an elderly, weak-minded dwarf,” game director and studio founder Dmitry Svetlow decided to up and move Indika’s development—and the company behind it—out of Moscow to neighbouring Kazakhstan, even moving the “entire recording studio by t…
