Do you know what is the laziest trite in writing a story? To finish it with "it was all just a dream". Unfortunately, some people don’t know that, and so we have another episode of KSI’s meltdown saga.

If you don’t know who KSI is, I don’t blame you. I didn’t realize someone like that existed before, a few years ago, he got involved with infamous people, who I won’t even mention right here. Enough said their "friendship" grew bigger and bigger because of the money and money. It grew so big that they put together their minds and produced an energy drink. I know, it must have been a long day at the office - who knew it was even possible to make an energy drink?!
But since the fame of their drink quickly faded away, they came up with an even better idea - let’s become "friends" with an even bigger (supposedly) scam artist and put together a copy of a crappy product. And so they have. It was not welcomed with open hands by their audience, but nevertheless they pushed on to keep their "friendship" afloat. But then another man, I never heard of, got involved by publishing a single tweet. This put the poor KSI on a verge of meltdown - he firmly stood by his "friends" and was prepared to attack anyone who will put in question the fact that their crap is slightly better than some other crap. He kept it going for few weeks.
But since poor KSI is a man of many talents, such as... well... I guess... I mean... it’s not that important, he supposedly has many talents. So he published his newest song called... whatever it was called. Enough said no one, except poor KSI, took it seriously because of the style, the lyrics, the music, the video and the whole idea. And this pushed the poor KSI way beyond the meltdown point - he spent several days of his busy schedule fighting everyone, who thought that it was just a parody of a song. So, basically everyone. He kept it going for a few weeks.
But now, we finally know the truth - he was joking the whole time! In a podcast with a known scam artist, he declared that did it all just for the marketing of his videos. Yes, boys and girls, he was playing a complete idiot, he was pretending to be a psychotic loser, he was just acting like a pathetic little child! It was all just a dream... What was the goal? To push the views of his "song", which is supposed to be now the most viewed video on his channel. In that case, can I have a contact to your PR agency? They sound like great minds.
But that reminded me of a small detail, a meltdown he had after he lost a "boxing match" some time ago and, for some time, simply could not let go. Or when he could not let go after hearing some comment made by a boxing "expert". Or when their drink was accused of being just a caffeine with some water added. Or when their drink was sued by Lionel Messi... Damn, the poor KSI must be one of the busiest actors in the whole UK - he has been pretending to be a spoiled child for years now!
To summarize: the poor KSI made a complete fool of himself, for weeks he was acting like an idiot, lost any shreds of dignity, lost the last pieces of credibility he had and become a meme, so his legacy, his biggest video ever be a crappy song that was ridiculed by everyone? Sounds great, where do I sign up? What will be his next move? "It was a social experiment"? "It was my evil twin brother"? "I had amnesia and didn’t know what I was doing"? I guess we will have to wait for the next episode of "KSI has no real friends" show.

Quite popular youtuber videogamedunkey just announced that he has established a publishing studio called Bigmode, which will be focusing on indie productions. That announcement was met with mixed reactions, but not for some sinister reason.
Right now browser online games have to compete not only with each other, but also mobile games and (even if they are mostly crappy) tons of games available on platforms like Steam. And there is one thing some of the online browser games developers forget - the basics.
The next-gen update to Fallout 4 that was linked to the premiere of the Fallout TV series was quite a surprise for the players. I mean, Bethesda does not have a great track record when it comes to fixing or improving their titles after they are published. But as they say in the gaming universe, "Bethesda, Bethesda never changes".
Over 6 months after introduction of Netflix Games - yes, it has happened, and don’t worry you’re not the only one that missed that - quite interesting numbers were published. Or rather one number - less than 1%.
After 3 years since the moment we first had the chance to buy Stalker 2, it seems like the game finally is reaching... a quite early stage of production. At least that is the conclusion of the newest video, which shows 12 seconds of gameplay. Or rather "gameplay"...
This news creates mixed feelings in me - I want to make a smug face and repeat "I told you so!" and at the same time I wish this news was not true. Yes, it is Stalker 2 again. Yes, it’s bad news again. No, I’m not surprised. During the Gamescom 2023 a new trailer of the title was shown and... let’s just say it wasn’t received well.
Electronic Arts, a company behind one of the most popular games in history, was voted Worst Company in America by Consumerist in 2012 and 2013, also 5th most hated company in the United States by USA ...
According Bloomberg, Sony is sulking again and will take their toys away from the unworthy PC players. And yes, it is all down to money. And stupidity.
