The Miamian obtained a Rockstar pitch deck through a public records request that proposes Vice City-themed takeovers of places like Miami’s airport, Metrorail stations, and some public areas.
A spokesperson for Miami-Dade’s mayor confirmed to The Miamian that there had been conversations but said “Nothing has been formally agreed to or approved.”
The 85 year old Canadian voice actor was best known for portraying the Autobot across Transformers media, including the original 1980s animated series and live-action films. He’s also recognized for voicing animated characters like Eeyore in the Winnie the Pooh franchise.

Sony’s new trailer for The Social Reckoning features a few brief snippets of Strong’s performance. The voice is pretty uncanny. The film debuts in theaters on October 9th.
The studio is reworking Splitgate: Arena Reloaded and Empulse to support peer-to-peer multiplayer but will no longer be providing dedicated servers, according to a message from cofounders Ian Proulx and Nicholas Bagamian. (Proulx wore a hat that read “Make FPS Great Again” at 2025’s Summer Game Fest, which he apologized for.)
The cofounders also note that “our focus is changing” and that “What we build next may look very different from what people expect from 1047 Games.”
“It just felt like the fair thing to do,” Panic says in an email shared on Reddit. The exact refund amount seems to vary; the email screenshot shows a refund of $12.36, while a couple other Reddit users mentioned refunds of about $23.
I dig just about everything in the new 18-minute video demo that you can watch on YouTube. (I can’t embed it because it’s age-gated.) The whole vibe is way more interesting to me than yet another grimdark fantasy.
Fable launches on February 23rd, 2027.
Tim Curry has died at 80 years-old. His credentials are legendary: including Rocky Horror, Clue, Home Alone 2, The Three Musketeers, The Hunt for Red October… well, the list goes on and on. But my personal favorite might be a lesser-known role in the weirdly live-acted Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 video game. May he rest in eternal peace… “in space!”
He told the LA Times it would see Michael Fassbender’s David creating a “brave new world for himself.” As one of the sickos that liked those movies, I’m pumped, but not holding my breath. There’s a sequel to Romulus and a second season of Earth on the way too, plus a new Alien: Isolation game.
The latest trailer for Netflix’s Willy Wonka-inspired reality competition show features a lot more voiceover from an AI-generated clone of Gene Wilder. The AI of it all was already ridiculous, but it’s even weirder to hear how much the AI voice sounds like Wilder doing an impression of RuPaul explaining Drag Race challenges.
November 19th will also be the launch date for Volvy’s Adventure: Reslimed, a new retro-styled platformer that stars Devolver’s weird mascot. And both GTA VI and Volvy’s Adventure will be going up against November 19th’s launch of The Binding of Isaac: Repentance + Online on consoles that same day. Big day.
You’ll have to wait until tomorrow to preorder the $899.99 translucent green Xbox Series X (unless you received an early invitation from Microsoft), but you can preorder the matching controller now for $79.99. The device will begin shipping on October 20th.
