Kamiya reminds us that Nintendo even wanted the Link outfit to be more revealing The new Bayonetta 3 naive mode is an optional toggle that makes the game less revealing — and apparently, it was Platinum’s idea. The Bayonetta 3 naive mode move was done so that everyone could enjoy the game. Speaking on Twitter in response to a fan (and all of the speculation that Nintendo “made Platinum Games do it”), outspoken Platinum producer Hideki Kamiya notes that Nintendo has “never complained about exposure” before in the…

Act like a cat (for the most part) As we inch closer to launch day on July 19, one of the most fun games to think about right now is Stray, an adventure game about being a cat in a futuristic world run by robots. The trophy list is now out in the wild (courtesy of sites like Exophase and Powerpyx), and some of the descriptions give us a better idea of what to expect from Stray‘s scope. Most notably, there’s a pacifist challenge, one for meowing 100 times, another for being sneaky enough to go undetected, and a speedrun…

I’m not sure anybody really expected the Barbie movie to be such a topic of conversation so early in its production, but here we are. People absolutely cannot get over what this movie is, from Barbie’s absolutely incredible cast and behind the camera talent, to the bright and colorful look of the movie itself, Barbie is clearly doing something right.

Researchers have created a form of platinum that can remain liquid at room temperature, by mixing tiny amounts of the precious metal with gallium. This new liquid platinum performs catalytic reactions more efficiently than a solid platinum catalyst, using far less of the metal.Platinum is a powerful catalyst for many different reactions, most commonly used in fuel cells and in catalytic converters to clean up vehicle emissions. The problem, however, is that it’s one of the rarest and most expensive metals on Earth,…

Scientists have figured out how to make platinum more affordable as a catalyst: turn it into a low-temperature liquid.It's been known for centuries that noble metals like platinum, gold, ruthenium, and palladium make excellent catalysts for chemical reactions, because they help break the chemical bonds between atoms more efficiently than other metals.  But noble metals are rare and expensive, so large-scale industrial manufacturers generally opt for cheaper, less effective alternatives like iron. (Iron is used as a…
