Conan O’Brien’s Clueless Gamer segments are always a good time, but his latest brings the fun to the Dallas Cowboys’ AT&T Stadium in Texas, which is home to the world’s second-largest high-definition screen. The thing is 160 feet wide, 72 feet high, and weighs 1.2 million pounds. It’s like the ultimate gaming display. And all you have to do is rent out an NFL stadium. No big deal.

Conan and his gaming pal Aaron Bleyaert start out, unsurprisingly, with a little Madden 25, though they go on to play a bunch of recent and older favorites that have nothing to do with sports, including Flower, Need for Speed: Rivals, and one of the many re-releases of Street Fighter II. As always, it’s the comedian’s sharp wit that elevates the proceedings into must-watch territory. Give it a peek.

PlayStation had a better 2024 than it should have. Now it needs to focus

Astro Bot climbs on a DualSense controller.

This time last year, PlayStation had given us a roadmap for the brand's direction moving forward. It made grand commitments to live-service titles, put heavy investments in a mobile initiative, and continued to launch new hardware. If one were to judge PlayStation's 2024 on the rubric it set for itself, it would have been a failure. But that doesn't tell the full story.

PlayStation's 2024 felt like a restructuring phase. On the software side, we saw PlayStation embracing young players again, a decision that netted it a big Game of the Year win. Behind the games, we saw even bigger changes, specifically with the appointment of two new co-CEOs, Herman Hulst and Hideaki Nishino, that may have radical implications for the brand going forward. All of this sets the stage for a needed pivot for a brand that flirted with disaster in 2024. The only problem? That new vision hasn't been communicated yet, and fans' good will may be in short supply after a year of ups and downs.
Shifting strategy
Sony had a lot of pots on the stove this year, which made it a rollercoaster ride for fans. If there was one message PlayStation wanted to communicate as clearly as possible in 2023, it was the commitment to finding a live service hit. At the time, 12 such titles were reportedly in development and scheduled to be released between 2024 and 2026. So far, that effort has struggled to get off the starting blocks. Naughty Dog made the wise decision to cancel its Last of Us Online project to focus on single-player IPs such as the upcoming Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, but the real casualty was Concord.

At the end of 2024, Xbox finds itself as a crossroads

The Mental Wellness Awareness Xbox design.

At the end of 2024, Xbox finds itself at a crossroads that many fans wouldn’t have anticipated at the start of the year.

Finally bearing the fruits of its pricey Activision Blizzard acqusition, Xbox has had one of its most consistent years in terms of game output. Game Pass received a healthy number of day-one games throughout the year, and Microsoft delivered a new first-party title to the service every month between September and December.
