5 is probably the best, but 3 is my favourite. That was such an exciting time... I remember going to E3 for the first time while 24 was being aired, and seeing Mass Effect behind closed doors which was clearly influenced by the show

I asked Kobayashi about GPTRACK50’s status under NetEase, and while he didn't comment directly, he suggested the project will make it to release.
“Development is progressing steadily, and we’re seeing a clear path toward the master version."

There have been multiple instances across different outlets / accounts this year
Xbox used to hold a ‘second’ summer showcase for press, briefing less sexy news, like backcompat upgrades and that sort of thing. Media received the briefing in advance so they could plan stories and cover news properly. One year it leaked online – they never did it again. That content doesn't exist
For anyone who breaks agreement and shares info in Discord, to your special sources or whatever: it's damaging, to all. Developers think twice about speaking to press / creators. Then
the considered coverage we were able to build is replaced with more rat race slop. And for what?
Not commenting on anything in particular, but I kind of despair that, in an already struggling games media landscape, it's now a given that any broad pre-brief will 100% be leaked online for clout. Are PRs just not bothering to police this? Are young creators/press missing mentorship?
SNK is releasing a modern NeoGeo AES console this year, with ‘unrivaled authenticity’ and £70 game cartridges.
