Buddy, you’d be amazed at my capacity for forgetting videogame adaptations. Remember when I wrote about The Sims movie yesterday? I don’t. What’s more, now I’m suddenly remembering that, somewhere out there, Amazon is working on a Mass Effect TV show. What’s more, perhaps you could be in it, provided you could play any of:…

After all, there are so many characters in Sanrio’s…

The Casio Moflin is, according to its marketing fluff, a “smart companion powered by AI, with emotions like a living creature.” You can’t fool me, Casio. What you’ve made here is an AI-powered Tribble, and now those of us in the US and the UK can pick one up for $429/£369. The once-Japan-only device is…

Congressman James Comer, chair of the US House Oversight and Government Reform committee (HOGR), yesterday invited Valve president Gabe Newell, Discord CEO Humam Sakhnini, Twitch CEO Dan Clancy, and Reddit CEO Steve Huffman to testify before a HOGR hearing on October 8.
