LittleBigPlanet dev Media Molecule teases PS4 project with trippy colors

Add as a preferred source on Google

The result of a rendering error during production of the yet-to-be-announced PlayStation 4 project, this teasing look ahead from Media Molecule is as baffling as it is wonderful. The creators of LittleBigPlanet present a mess of strobing colors, graphical glitches, and “a familiar face” in the 40-second video, which reveals nothing, but is certainly amusing.

The face that appears looks similar to one of the characters shown in this video, from the PS4 console reveal event in 2013 (possibly the guitar-playing guy who shows up after the 5-minute mark). The video was framed at the time as a tech demo that came as a result of MM’s early development efforts with the then-unreleased console, but it may have evolved into a full-fledged project in the time since the reveal.

The title card in the video reads “Making Games” followed by “Part 1: Embrace Your Mistakes.” If there is a ‘part 1’ does that mean we will see more videos in the near future? Whatever the case, Media Molecule has us all scratching our heads as to what this could mean.

This free app helps pinball fans find machines around the world

If you're the kind of person who plans vacations around vintage arcades, hunts down rare pinball machines, or misses that one table you played years ago, there's now a surprisingly useful tool built just for you.

Called Pinball Map, the free website and mobile app does exactly what its name suggests. It helps players locate public pinball machines almost anywhere in the world, whether they're tucked away inside dedicated arcades, neighborhood bars, restaurants, museums, breweries, or even campgrounds. Think of it as Google Maps, but instead of helping you find coffee shops, it points you to your next pinball game.

Asus’ powerful new gaming laptop with a 240Hz Mini LED display makes its global debut
The 2026 ROG Strix G18 pairs up to RTX 5080 graphics with an Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus CPU
ROG Strix G18 (2026) laptop

Asus has started rolling out the 2026 ROG Strix G18 globally, and the easiest way to describe it is as a slightly toned-down version of the ridiculous ROG Strix Scar 18. It keeps the same 24-core Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus processor but tops out at an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop GPU instead of the Scar’s RTX 5090. (via Notebookcheck)

The Mini LED model gets the best balance
