According to several sources, PlayStation forced media reviews of Marathon to be delayed for several days on Metacritic. This is not a common practice and usually the embargo can't be after the release.

Out of three reviews available, two are doubtful warnings about inconsistent nature and poor UX, but the platform hid their scores: https://www.metacritic.com/game/marathon/

The events that have or haven't happened to me recently, I will never confirm or discuss that ever again!

The battle is getting funnier every hour: Slay the Spire II doubled the online and Marathon dipped to 30K.

The Spire is now at #1 spot on Steam top sellers and has already become the best selling Godot Engine game alongside Buckshot Roulette.

I'm out of holy fucks 😅
(Eventually peaked at 430K)

GamesBeat says that Turkish government plans to ban all PC gaming platforms and storefronts.

The country has over 800 game studios and despite most of them aiming mobile devices, the closure of Steam is still gonna be devastating.

The country already banned Roblox and Discord. But back in 2016 after riots they had a purge of every company trading with Cyprus (they simply took all the money from tens of thousands of companies in gaming, entertainment, and e-commerce). So, they are generally rough on edges when implying security protocols.

Who would've guessed (literally everyone) that Meta Ray Ban AR glasses were spying on people. But the format is crazy.

Meta hired extremely cheap labor from Africa to review records and analyze how good their AI is doing its job. Due to the workflow they had no right to fully stop it or not watch it.

These people have seen thousands upon thousands of hours of private lives of users. Now the company is being sued over it.

Why the fuck anything different was expected from literally always on AR glasses?

- Buys glasses with microphones and cameras from the company known for spying on people and selling this data 200 times before

- Gets shocked that they spy on users through spy glasses...

You bought a Ubisoft game in 2026 mood

🗿 502K, done!

That's more than:
- Among Us
- GTA V
- Starfield
- Skyrim
- Rust
- Payday 2
- TF2

UPD: They just surpassed Helldivers 2, Schedule I, and Monster Hunter Wilds beta test. Fallout 4 and ARC Raiders may fall next.

Oh, actually Fallout 4 and ARC are already behind. And also Call of Duty's highest online is now below STS2.
