I leave for one week, and everyone gets all acquisition-y on me! Sega and Rovio<\/a> are apparently linking up, as Sega desires to get on mobile and Rovio desires to get on consoles\/PC, or so I hear. It\u2019s not the pair-up I would have predicted, but that makes it even better. I look forward to seeing what happens after these two join together.<\/p>\n

In other news, the PlayStation 5 is apparently on track to lap the PS4 in sales figures. Mat Piscatella of Circana noted on Twitter<\/a> that, \u201cPlayStation 5 hardware unit sales have now surpassed those of PlayStation 4 on a time-aligned basis (29 months in market).\u201d While that doesn\u2019t surprise me, it\u2019s gratifying to know that gamers can get their hands on them en masse after supplies being short for so long. Also, Resident Evil 4 Remake sold like candy<\/a>, which I find even more gratifying.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve also seen some small pieces of interesting news this week: Gary Bowser<\/a> will allegedly be paying Nintendo off for the rest of his life, despite now technically being a free man. Seems like a long way to go to make an example out of one dude, but I\u2019m not a massive games publisher. Also, Guerrilla Games released Horizon Forbidden West\u2019s big DLC Burning Shores. Alongside the DLC, it\u2019s also added a thalassophobia mode, which, as someone with said affliction, I appreciate.<\/p>\n

In case you missed it, I was off last week, and spent a tiny bit of that time catching up on video games. It wasn\u2019t all<\/em> video games, I promise \u2014 I also went to a convention and met people who acted in video games \u2014 but it was nice to step back and play some games I wanted to play, not just to keep up with the modern releases. On that note, I\u2019ve spent part of this week playing Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened Remake. Having played the original during my adventure-gaming dark age, it\u2019s been very interesting to revisit it with prettier graphics and a slightly less gaunt Holmes. Give me a little time, and I\u2019ll be catching up on Dead Island 2 as well.<\/p>\n
