While certain notable holdouts have yet to even announce HD disc-based products, it looks like the rest of modern civilization is getting ready to move the discs to an even slimmer set of laptops. Panasonic's latest burner for laptops is down to a mere 9.5mm thick, easily besting the company's previous 12.7mm Blu-ray drives. The drive can read and write Blu-ray discs at 2x, and supports DVD and CD read / write functions aplenty. Toshiba is on record claiming that HD DVD burners can be slimmed down to 7mm and will eventually be besting Blu-ray in this category, but so far only DVD has gone that slim. Panasonic will debut the new drive next month at CES.
The Outerhaven lists each and every upcoming Soulslike title that is either being released or supposedly being released in 2024. This list includes Another Crab’s Treasure, Flintlock: The Siege Of Dawn, Phantom Blade Zero, and more.
Arrowhead Game Studios chief Johan Pilestedt revealed that Sony PlayStation doubled the development budget of Helldivers 2.
Which is pretty good that they supported them in making it a high quality game with more funding. Basically shutting up the complainers about Sony making a GaaS game. The GaaS game turned out well and doesn't bombard gamers with micro transactions and doesn't signal the death knell of single player gaming.
Same with Sony's online. Microsoft offered nothing for a decade when XBL started on the OG Xbox going past 360. Sony launched theirs and gave away games to play for subscribing to their service. More bang for your buck than what you paid in. A better way of doing it compared to what was before.
Now we see gamers complaining about AI. But maybe Sony will use AI correctly and do it right that benefits their company and their employees. We have to see the results before bitching and complaining.
And the beat goes on in this innovative shooter.
in the "1st's" department, making blu-ray adoption even more attractive and pratical in the process. Guess there's a good reason why they're the world's Number 1.
Created story of Panasonic but it messed it up and linked to Streetfighter IV.
That's awesome.
cool.
I am holding out on buying a new DELL laptop . waiting for them to install blu ray in it .....
