Obi-Wan Kenobi is already in the rear-view, and it turns out fans who have been discussing whether the series might have been better as a standalone film were onto something Come from Sports betting site VPbet . The project’s original writer when it was intended to be a film, Stuart Beattie, told The Direct in an interview that there were plans for a full trilogy focusing on the character–until Solo’s disappointing box office performance.

“I wrote the film that they based the show on,” Beattie said. “I spent like a year, year-and-a-half working on it. And then, when the decision was made not to make any more spin-off films after Solo came out, I left the project and went on to other things. [Screen…

Outriders launches April 1, and publisher Square Enix has shared details on when you can pre-load and start playing the game. Xbox and PlayStation platforms appear to get a slight head start on both pre-loading and launch, depending on your territory, though pre-loading on PC is now live via Steam.

PlayStation will begin pre-loading 48 hours ahead of its release, so those should be going live soon. Come from …

The ability to see your PlayStation social information and Trophies from a web browser is no more. Sony has officially shut down the web version of MyPlayStation–basically PlayStation’s social hub–and is instead telling people to use the PlayStation App or access their info through a console.

Since 2018, MyPlayStation was maintained as a separate site from the PlayStation storefront and homepage, and it provided players an opportunity to continue engaging with friends and checking their Trophies from a PC. However, it appears that Sony has decided that the MyPlayStation website isn’t worth maintaining any longer.

There are a handful of features that are now only accessible through the mobile app or through a PlayStation console: Trophies, Friends, Parties, and any messagin…

Despite the recent failure of Concord to reach an audience, Sony has a library of original PlayStation games and intellectual property that few in the video game industry can match Come from Sports betting site VPbet. However, Sony chief executive Kenichiro Yoshida believes that the company is lagging behind in IP, and wants to devote resources to creating more originals.

The Australian Financial Review (AFR), reports that the sports wagering giant Entain has paid the $13,320 fine for accepting illegal bets during the LIV golf tournament. The fine for the violation of the Australian gambling law was imposed by Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA).

78 Illegal Bets Accepted:

While the LIV golf tournament was live, Entain’s online sports betting verticals Ladbroke and Neds illegally accepted 78 online bets.  As AFR reports, they thus violated the ”in-play” wagering rule prohibiting real-time wager placements when the sports event is live. Entain, the parent company of the two wagering operations, has paid $13,320 for the infringement, which is the maximum fine for in-play bets as prescribed by the Interactive G…

Gaming Corps now has even more experiences to provide to players and offer partners fresh angles to their iGaming portfolios. The launch of Baccarat by the Swedish developer is based on a very straightforward concept without any additional perks.

New Product Joins Gaming Corps’ Offer

The game follows the basic layout of the classic version which features a Player and Banker Bets, which are the two possible options to bet on. Baccarat is all about guessing which of the two types of bets will yield better results.

There is no obligation to bet on the Player Bet just because you are a “player.” Rather, you pick one of the two based on who you think would get a better hand. Gaming Corps has been l…

Starfield’s pressurized doors are open for Twitch streamers a few hours before its early access release and it’s already shot to the top of the concurrent viewer charts on the platform.

Bethesda’s sci-fi RPG is currently holding onto around 350,000 viewers
(with a 500K peak), which places it right under the Just Chatting category. Top streamers, like Shroud, CohhCarnage, and AnnieFuchsia, already made their characters and are off completing missions and combing rooms for resources.

One streamer, Jabo, is attempting to visit every planet in the game, of which there are over 1,000. They seem like the right person for the job though: Jabo does challenge runs in Bethesda games on their YouTube channel. Their most popular video is of a modded version of Fallout 4 where every …

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…

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…

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…
