People have different opinions about how well *Borderlands 4* is doing, with some reporting significant performance issues. However, many find the constant commentary from Randy Pitchford to be the biggest problem. He initially made a general statement about PC gamers needing to understand how their hardware impacts game performance, and then replied to his own post an incredible eighteen times.
I was completely mistaken. Everyone says Stephen King writes intense stories, and I’d been warned that *The Long Walk* was especially brutal, even for devoted readers. Now that I’ve seen the movie and read the reviews, I understand why. Let me share my thoughts.
During the Emmy Awards on September 14th, both former cast member Parker Posey and HBO CEO Casey Bloys revealed that the next season of *The White Lotus* will take place in France. Posey mentioned to *E!*’s Heather McMahan that creator Mike White is currently scouting locations in the south of France, unintentionally confirming the season’s setting. She also stated she doesn’t know if she’ll be involved. Later, Bloys confirmed to Deadline that France is definitely the location, though specific details are still being worked out, including whether Posey will return.
Okay, so this is crazy! I was walking my puppy, Dax – he’s a four-month-old Shih Tzu – near this little creek behind my house in Land O’ Lakes. It’s usually pretty still and covered in that green watermoss stuff. Well, a gator just *came out of nowhere*! The moss totally hid it until it was already attacking. It was super scary!
Christian Buhl, the technical director for the new Battlefield game, and Matthew Nickerson, a senior combat designer, recently discussed the upcoming release with IGN. Buhl acknowledged the humorous memes circulating about the game, saying he found them funny but also understood the concerns they highlighted.
Okay, so Death Stranding is *definitely* a strange game, but in a good way! I mean, it’s all about delivering packages, but even something simple like stumbling over a rock felt incredibly intense. It really made you care about keeping your balance and protecting your cargo – it wasn’t just a game, it was a surprisingly dramatic experience!
The latest Nintendo Direct showcased a trailer for Super Mario Bros. Wonder on the Switch 2, highlighting Bellabel Park – a new set of multiplayer minigames only available on the Switch 2 where players can cooperate or compete. A keen-eyed fan, DynamoSuperX on X (reported by IGN), noticed a versus minigame icon around the 2:00 mark featuring Yoshi and Rosalina, strongly suggesting Rosalina will be playable in the updated game.
The 8BitDo 64 Bluetooth Controller was created with Analogue, a company specializing in retro game systems, but it’s also compatible with Nintendo Switch, the upcoming Switch 2, PCs, and Android devices. You may need to update the controller’s software to connect it to the Switch 2. For Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack members, this controller is a great way to enjoy classic Nintendo 64 games.
I’ve watched *Hamilton* on Disney+ countless times, and I even saw the touring show a few years ago – it felt like experiencing the story anew. However, I didn’t expect the movie version to be particularly impactful, as I’m so used to the original cast recording, even on a larger screen.
