  Why Developers Should Add Gambling to Video Games

  Gaming and gambling are more connected than ever before. Nevertheless, many developers still don’t add gambling to their games. We believe this is a problem and that they should do the opposite or better said the right thing. Video games can feature a full or partial online casino and related casino games which brings a few perks.
  
  
  More fun
  
  The first and the most important reason why developers should add casinos or at least matching games to their creations...

  Star Citizen: Squadron 42 is Once Again Delayed

  No beta, no alpha, no end in sight.
  
  It seems as though another year will pass without so much as a new glimpse at Squadron 42, the single player component for Star Citizen from Cloud Imperium Games. CIG showed off its revised roadmap last week and with it came a full deletion of any Squadron 42 beta.
  
  Chris Roberts, the founder of CIG and Star Citizen creator, told donators that they shouldn't expect to see a release date for the game anytime soon. In fact, the last time...

  Ways Gaming and Gambling Are Connected

  Gaming and gambling are very similar, so similar that the industry is using these two terms interchangeably on many occasions. However, they have one big difference—gaming relies on skill, while gambling relies on chance. But how similar these activities really are?
  
  
  History of gambling and gaming

  Cyberpunk 2077 Hotfix Addresses Save File Size Issue

  Duplicate items to your heart's desire.
  
  The 1.06 update for Cyberpunk 2077 rolled out less than a day ago now. With it comes just a couple of fixes. One of the fixes addresses the issue of save files hitting an 8MB limit which would then cause the save to become corrupt.
  
  It seems as though this issue was only prevalent on the PC as this fix is listed as "PC specific" in the short changelog. There is also one console specific change and one more generalized fix...
