The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is one of the best games of last year, and the Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth producer could not finish for a very important reason for all the Square Enix franchise fans.
Yoshinori Kitase, producer of this very anticipated game that just released yesterday, confirmed in an interview that working on Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth makes it impossible to end the last couple of hours of Tears of the Kingdom. He added that he will be back in the game very soon.

The “graphics don’t matter” argument always makes me a little sad. Though there is some truth in that stance, it is often triggered by the views of those who overvalue raw gaming visuals or otherwise believe games can’t be great if they don’t have top-of-the-line graphics. Perhaps a game doesn’t need incredible graphics to be great but incredible graphics certainly have the power to elevate or define tremendous experiences. They are a vital component of the evolution of the medium.

Released in 1977, the Atari 2600 was among the second generation of video game consoles and was hugely influenced by the arcade era. Originally called the Video Computer System, it would go on to be renamed, with the Atari 2600 still getting held in high regard as a massively important platform in video game history.
While its name is iconic, many of the games that were featured on the platform are even more famous. They defined the legacy of the Atari 2600, regardless of whether they were exclusives, originals, ports or part of a larger series. Whether it was the depth of their sales, the way they pushed the platform’s technology, or how they have become synonymous with the console, these games made the Atari 2600 what it is today.

Once per season, the makers of "Futurama" like to tinker with their formula by presenting speculative anthology-style episodes wherein they can tell stories that are even wilder than usual. The second edition of this format was entitled "Anthology of Interest II" and aired on January 6, 2002. The wraparound device for "Interest II" was that the Professor (Billy West) invented a TV-like device called the What-If Machine which could present short videos of whatever speculative question one thought to ask it.
Fry (West), being something of a shiftless layabout, announces that he's only ever been proficient at old-school video games, and asks the What-If Machine what life would be like were it to adhere to the rules of said video games. He and the rest of the "Futurama" characters find themselves in a world where diplomatic talks between Earth and the planet Nindenduu 64 have broken down, causing Donkey Kong to throw a...

Australian indie Wftn Entertainment – the company behind hit blue-light shows including “Bondi Vet” and “Paramedics” – is hoping to lure unscripted creatives Down Under in a new hiring drive, Variety can reveal.
Wftn says it has already identified 20 roles it needs to fill – including editors, producers, showrunners, post producers, field producers and production managers – and is prepared to spend up to seven figures to snap up a host of U.K. creatives. That sum will go towards flights, accommodation and work permits as well as salaries.
The indie says that due to growing demand – it reports an uptick in commissions – plus the post-covid production boom Australia is currently experiencing means it is becoming increasingly hard to fill those roles domestically – which is why Steve Oemcke, Wtfn Group’s co-founder and Cco, is now casting his eyes across to the U.K.

One of the world’s largest homes is set to hit the auction block in early February, amid bankruptcy proceedings, asking $295 million. Known since its inception by colorful and controversial developer Nile Niami simply as “The One,” the monstrous and still-incomplete Los Angeles structure is 10 years in the making. Originally, the place had been expected to list for around $500 million, so you could be scoring a sweet deal, depending on how one looks at it. Ahem.
Should the place get anywhere near the discounted ask, it will easily rank as the most expensive home ever sold at auction, well ahead of the storied Hearst Estate (now known as the Beverly House), which was auctioned off in September for $63.1 million.
Per Aaron Kirman of Compass, who is co-listing the property with Branden Williams and Rayni Williams of The Beverly Hills Estates, The One was created for today’s billionaire seeking a one-of-a-kind asset.
