FORZA HORIZON 6 LEAKED 10 DAYS EARLY AND MICROSOFT IS TO BLAME

Someone forgot to encrypt the preload on Steam.
The full game - all 155GB - is now freely available on piracy sites before a single paying customer has touched it.

-> The leak happened because files were uploaded to Steam completely unencrypted
-> 155GB of assets, cars, map data - everything is out there right now
-> This is the SECOND time this year a AAA game leaked this way (Death Stranding 2 in March)
-> FH6 doesn't release until May 19 - pirates have a 10-day head start on buyers

Valve or Microsoft need to explain how this keeps happening.

@Jeremybtc @jamcom90 this makes the movie even better, in hindsight.

The helicopter chase in Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991) still feels illegal. Stunt pilot Chuck Tamburro really flew the chopper under a low freeway overpass, skimming the concrete at speed.

You'd be amazed how many endless feuds this causes with neighbours in Britain. There are two types of people. Those who just park where there is space. And those that think they own the bit of public road closest to their house and make life hell for everyone else.

Guy aggressively argues with a cyclist about being in the road, then gets a dose of sweet karma.

Remember - this is every brexit voter still doubling down on being moronic and why we should never ever have referendums in the UK that allow spivs to con the intellectually vulnerable .

True story....

A pit bull attacked a toddler on the streets of New York, but luckily a bystander was quick enough to choke the dog before it could do further harm the child.😳

Carra Exposed!

[Kyama ⚽ @ElijahKyama_]

Jamie Carragher on Liverpool's Virgil van Dijk in Feb 2025: "He's too good for the highest level of football."

Carra on CBS after Liverpool's defeat to PSV: Van Dijk can't help other players. He needs to help himself. He is a normal CB like I was."

Wow!

[SimplyUtd @SimplyUtd]

🚨🗣 Jamie Carragher when Manchester United lose: Amorim and his tactics can’t survive in the Premier League…

…but when Liverpool have lost 7 out of 8 PL games after spending €500m in the previous transfer window, he says Liverpool should spend more in January.

I guess punditry has left him. 🤡😂

Insane numbers compared to pre-Game Pass figures.

[NIB @nib95_]

A former Activision employee tells Bloomberg that putting Call of Duty Black Ops 6 on Game Pass, lost #Xbox over $300m in sales revenue, due to sales cannibalisation.

Multiple employees clarified its negative impact to sales and a lack of Game Pass revenue growth to compensate, and how this could be why prices increased so steeply.

Gee, I wonder who reported on this COD sales cannibalisation and the potential detrimental impacts nearly a year ago...see quoted tweet.

Joost Van Dreunen, founder of video-game analytics firm Aldora, also said:

“Game Pass hasn’t delivered the explosive growth Microsoft anticipated post-Activision, and they’ve realized their infrastructure costs don’t align with their pricing model.”

Again, as projected and reported based on the data and figures available, despite Microsoft PR, fanboys and influencers musing otherwise.

Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision has been followed by significant price hikes and layoffs, harming both gamers and developers.

As we’ve seen across sectors, increasing market consolidation and increasing prices often go hand-in-hand.

As dominant firms become too-big-to-care, they can make things worse for their customers without having to worry about the consequences.

The Black Ops 7 multiplayer beta was not fun. It's essentially Black Ops 6 re-skinned. Like MW II 2022 and MW III 2023. The future setting jumps the gun, excuse the pun. It's just not fun anymore. I much preferred the Battlefield 6 beta.

@unlimited_ls Why not just comply with the officer? Why attack an armed law enforcement personnel?

How did Naughty Dog nail such an epic chase scene back in 2016?
