If GTA 6 Beats Football On Thanksgiving, That’s A Win, EA Founder Says
Rockstar's GTA 6 is expected to be a giant success commercially, but just how big does the game need to be to actually be successful following a decade of development and perhaps one of the biggest development budgets ever ? We don't know, because Take-Two doesn't disclose that kind of information, but EA founder Bing Gordon has his own thoughts. On the Sozzi Unleashed show, Gordon said it would be "mind-blowing" if GTA 6 can reach 75 million copies sold. How did he arrive at that number? Gordon said he was basing this on a number--750 million--a figure he thought a previous GTA 6 trailer reached. If GTA 6 can sell 10% of that, or 75 million copies, that would be a success, he said. Gordon was referencing "the preview video," which might have been the GTA 6 Extended Look, which premiered on Netflix and then landed on YouTube.

It's a first-person zombie-slaying game with a surprisingly deep RPG system, impressive amounts of gore, and at least one incredibly creepy undead clown boss fight. It was previously made available through the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog in 2024, but it was removed earlier this year. In case you missed it then, now is your chance to check it out.

Valve Knows Steam Has An AI Slop Problem And Has A ‘Significant Number Of People’ Working On It
Steam Next Fest has come and gone, and one of the big criticisms of the semi-regular showcase for game demos--aside from there being several thousand of them --was that there was simply too much AI slop floating to the top. Valve has responded to the feedback, and for now, its solution to avoiding hastily vibe-coded game demos is to simply be patient and wait a few days before diving in. Speaking at the Steam Indie Connect developer event (via Inven Global ), Tom Giardino and Marc Wilkinson from Valve's Steam Business Team addressed the recent criticisms of Next Fest. Wilkinson explained that users are shown a completely random lineup of game demos for the first two days of Next Fest, but after that time period, people can expect personalized recommendations to kick in. Wilkinson also added that many of the features about low-quality games surfacing were written during those first two da
