But what happens when you give three monkeys with restricted access to their senses a limited amount of time to defuse a bomb? It explodes,…
Sony’s recent decision to cut ties with Kojima Productions’s Physint is one of the more unexpected turns of 2026. Even with the industry’s many struggles, and speculation that Death Stranding 2 didn’t sell as well as Sony hoped, the PlayStation studio shutting the door on one of the industry’s most famed and respected designers was…
