Nearly 70% of people said they believe the American dream -- that if you work hard, you will get ahead -- no longer.

It didn't much of this year's Summer Game Fest to realise that, in racing to escape the orbit of GTA 6, the games industry has created a new problem: a September 2026 so packed with releases that it's going to take some dedication - not to mention time and money - for players to get through even a fraction of them all. So it was only a matter of time... Read more ›
