Video game voice actors and motion-capture performers called a strike last week over failed labor contract negotiations focused on AI-related protections for workers.

A former developer for Rockstar Games is spreading what some want to believe as vile hearsay.

The developer, Obbe Vermeij, says he thinks GTA 6, one of the most hyped games in history, won’t live up to expectations. At least, he thinks it could “initially disappoint some.”

The gaming world and Hollywood have been building and fostering a pretty lucrative relationship for over a decade. And while it’s been a relationship with potent synergy on both sides, it doesn’t always work out; case and point, Paramount+ is ditching their Halo series after only a couple of seasons.

Maybe it’s licensing agreements in shambles, or Activision wanting to prioritize selling the game individually or as part of a bundle rather than including it in a subscription service, or heck, maybe it’s some strategic timing play to extravagant for us to understand – but Call of Duty: Modern Warfare’s absence on Xbox Games is a notable one.

I mean, at least if you’re a normal human with a semblance of rational fear threshold. So you’ll probably be enlightened to know that an issue with Apple Vision Pro that you never knew existed is now resolved. That issue allowed people to create websites and inject code that filled your VR experience with bats and spiders.

Hell to the no.

For those of you entrenched in the GTA series, then you probably know that a number of GTA 5 expansions were tossed aside – but you might not know entirely why. Well, now we have at least some insight on some expansion cancellation reasons.

The Meta Quest 3 is one of the most popular Virtual Reality (VR) headsets in the game. With enhanced display and optics, advanced tracking and controllers, and an overall versatile user experience, the Meta Quest 3 is also an economic choice in the market. And now, it may get closer to closing the gap between itself and the costly Apple Vision Pro by snatching yet another feature from it.

Have you ever done something amazing while playing a Steam game and thought, “I wish all my gaming friends had seen that?” Or perhaps you made a hilarious mistake and wanted to share it for a good laugh. Now, Steam is making it much easier to share these moments. And we couldn’t be happier about it.
