Valve assures Deadlock players hungry for its next big update that it will notify them, ‘or order a ton of pizza’, when it’s ready

Deadlock, a hybrid MOBA-shooter in pseudo-early access, has generated significant anticipation among players. The recent Old Gods, New Blood update introduced six new heroes and other enhancements. Valve hinted at a large content update and two smaller updates focused on ranked mode and item adjustments. However, a communication from developer representative Yoshi indicated delays in the anticipated update due to playtesting and iteration processes. Despite being invite-only, Deadlock has evolved over the past year, with signs pointing toward a potential transition to open beta. The development team is responsive to community feedback, suggesting a commitment to the game's future.

Running Windows NT On The Nintendo Gamecube

The Nintendo GameCube can run Windows NT, a mid-1990s workstation operating system, due to a PowerPC version developed by Microsoft. A group of contributors adapted the OS for the GameCube, making it available on GitHub, and it also works on the Wii and Wii U’s vWii mode. Users need to use various controller-entry methods for text input, as the GameCube lacks a dedicated keyboard, although some rare controllers with integrated keyboards exist. A video tutorial on YouTube details the installation process.

Xbox’s new chief strategy officer is still a big believer in in-game ads

Matthew Ball, a videogame analyst and chief strategy officer for Xbox, predicts a significant rise in in-game advertising within PC and console games, viewing it as an untapped revenue stream essential for the industry's growth. He highlights challenges such as escalating game development costs and rising hardware expenses, which may lead consumers to reduce their gaming spending, threatening the industry's economic framework. A Comscore report supports this trend, noting that Netflix's ad-supported subscription tiers accounted for 45% of viewing hours in 2025, with free ad-supported services seeing a 43% year-over-year increase in hours watched. Ball emphasizes the need for accessibility, sustainability, and adequate funding for development teams while acknowledging the potential benefits of in-game advertising for the gaming community.
