219-211. That spread makes this vote meaningless, because almost HALF of our former ally's Congress wants this to continue.

Totally get it - it's a rare day nowadays where I'll pick up anything on Steam for full price.

I actually have had this one on my Steam wishlist for a while, and I'm so excited for it as well! That crisp PS2 graphics vibe with such an in-depth world and systems has me really excited to get my hands on it when it comes out. This is one of those ones that I agree, even though I've been burnt by EA and preordering in the past, I've gotta be there for this one!

Oh man, this looks SICK! Going to have to check these out!

It's heartbreaking to hear about this. Sincerely hope that the families have the support they need, and my heart goes out to everyone impacted.

I honestly do wonder who their main market is – I assume handheld gamers would sooner opt for the cheapest option that gets the job done, which is by all accounts the Steam Deck just for sheer ease of use and decent price point for hardware.

It has an update slated for this year? Intriguing.

I've not seen much of the new 007 game for a while, but is almost like a mix of Hitman x Tomb Raider x GTA in terms of gameplay? I'd love to check it out maybe once it's on sale.

It would be nice and a step in the right direction if we could get regular publicly available insight into the status of these things, with the caveat of knowing some stuff might need to be redacted for safety concerns (but only where truly critical and necessary).

If we're going to have these institutions and rely on them to uphold the law, then we need to know we can trust them to do that, and be more in-the-loop so when things go as wrong as this, we can pounce it before it spirals. Trust needs to be earned back.

From what I can gather, I think the Stoat team is likely experiencing insanely heavy and unexpected traffic to their platform, and their server is still trying to catch up - I am also running into the same problem, but I assume the team is working hard behind the scenes to get everyone in and stabilize the platform as soon as they can!

It's a shame Bungie dropped the ball on Destiny - though I've been seeing some good things coming from their new game Marathon, so might give it a shot on a free weekend to see how it is.

 

Now that we're in to February, what are some games you've been eyeing up with a 2026 release date that you're excited to pick up? Are you planning to pick them up on release, or are you going to wait until a sale?

Me personally, I've got three titles I'm actually feeling quite excited for: Hela, Paralives and the Gothic 1 Remake. I've been waiting for Hela and Paralives for years because they look like fun, cozy games built by passionate devs - and the Gothic 1 Remake just popped up in my feed one day and I'm itching to get a chance to have my first Gothic experience!
