Pixel Watch Colors Will Vary from Region with the Best Color Being Available in Certain Regions Google Taiwan has spilled the beans and mentioned today that the Pixel Watch’s black color is going to come in a “matte black stainless steel case....

Microsoft has offered to continue making Activision’s games available on PlayStation only until 2027 (Microsoft, para. 3.27). Likewise, in public comments just on October 26, Microsoft said that it plans to offer Call of Duty on PlayStation only “as long as that makes sense.” A period until 2027 – or some other (possibly shorter) time that Microsoft unilaterally determines “makes sense” to Microsoft – is badly inadequate. By the time SIE launched the next generation of its PlayStation console (which is likely to occur around [redacted]), it would have lost access to Call of Duty and other Activision titles, making it extremely vulnerable to consumer switching and subsequent degradation in its competitiveness....

It’s perhaps not surprising, as the Resident Evil series wasn’t much of a hit with critics (53 on Metacritic) or fans (1.5 user score on Metacritic). Really, the only people who seemed particularly inspired by the Resident Evil series were people creating memes from some of its weirder moments. Personally, I gave it a shot, but couldn’t be bothered to watch more than an episode, as it didn’t feel much like Resident Evil most of the time, and when it did, it was kind of embarrassing....
