Some Xbox Users Are Playing Cyberpunk 2077 Early
Cyberpunk 2077 is officially upon us, unlocking at midnight local time on December 10 for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S. Despite the imminent release, though, some Xbox players are manipulating their consoles to play the game early.
According to Video Games Chronicle reporter Andy Robinson, Xbox owners who switch their console's region to New Zealand can unlock Cyberpunk 2077 hours before the game actually comes out. This is because New Zealand is more than 10 hours ahead of most regions.
Developer CD Projekt Red already announced the release times for Cyberpunk 2077 and let users preload the game early, so knowing that the game can be unlocked by manipulating the console is unsurprising. A handful of users from both Reddit and Twitter have reported the trick to work on Xbox consoles. But the same sort of trick can't be performed on PlayStation 4 or PlayStation 5; the location data on Sony's consoles is predetermined by the user's account.
Google Stadia has officially launched in eight more European countries, bringing the total number of countries where the cloud-based game streaming service is up and running to 22.
This means that would-be players in Austria, Czechia, Hungary, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, and Switzerland are now able to sign up for the service through their Google accounts and play remotely-hosted games using a Chrome browser, select mobile phones, or TV via a Chromecast Ultra.
This expansion falls a little more than a year after Stadia made its first debut. This also comes only weeks after it announced plans to launch on iOS via a web app, a decision likely meant to sidestep Apple’s limiting rules regarding streaming services hosted on its App Store.
Curve Digital appoints former Tencent and Sega exec John Clark as CEO
Human: Fall Flat and Hotshot Racing publisher Curve Digital has named former SEGA and Tencent exec John Clark as its new CEO.
Clark served as VP of partnerships in Europe during his time at Tencent, and before that spent 13 years at Sega Europe working as the EVP of publishing.
At the time of the acquisition, Curve said it was “looking at more acquisitions” in a bid to scale up, and it seems Clark has been brought in to oversee proceedings as the UK publisher continues to expand.
“I’ve been impressed with Curve Digital’s growth over the past few years, and I’m delighted and honored to be joining the team,” commented Clark.
“We have a great portfolio of developer partnerships, some great franchises and have added to our team of talent thanks to the acquisitions of the Runner Deck and IronOak studios. We have a very bright future ahead and I’m looking forward to working with the team to help shape it.”
Three more actors cast in upcoming Apple TV+ dramedy ‘Physical’
Apple TV+ has begun rounding out its cast for “Physical,” a drama-comedy set in California in the 1980s, including talents such as actor Paul Sparks and comedian Rory Scovel.
It was known early on that the show would star Rose Bryne as the lead character, Shila, an unhappy housewife in a 1980s Southern California beach community. In the series, she finds success through the world of aerobics.
According to Variety Joining the cast will be Paul Sparks (“House of Cards”,) playing a conservative real estate developer who idealizes the concept of the American Mall.
Comedian Rory Scovel will star as Shelia’s husband, a radical Berkley professor attempting to break into politics.
Lou Taylor Pucci (“Evil Dead”) will play a sensitive surfer and aspiring filmmaker.
Della Saba, known for voice work in series like “Steven Universe,” will play an enigmatic aerobic instructor with a hot temper and a mysterious past.
Dierdre Friel, who also stars in Apple TV+’s “Little America,” will play a socially awkward mother at Shila’s daughter’s school, who blossoms into Shila’s friend and confident.
Ashley Liao (“Fuller House”) will play a student who is enamored with Shila’s husband.
“Physical” joins other Apple TV+ comedies, including sports comedy “Ted Lasso” and workplace-meets-gaming comedy “Mythic Quest.”

Cleaning up India’s mountains of e-waste
Singhal’s founding of Karo Sambhav is the result of a lifelong passion for environmental protection. He has a master’s degree from Sweden’s International Institute for Industrial Environmental Economics (IIIEE). He was also trained by Thomas Lindhqvist who coined the principle of “extended producer responsibility” (EPR), which argues that producers must hold responsibility for what happens with products after consumers are done using them.
Singhal finds it fascinating that humans are the only species that generate waste. “We turn elements into compounds, components, and then products. But converting those products back into their elemental form—how do we create the second part of that product system?” He worked on this problem during his stint with Nokia in Finland, Singapore, and later India.
In 2012 the Indian government introduced new e-waste management rules that oblige companies that release products in the market to also collect those products back for recycling. Five years after that policy change, Singhal felt compelled to launch an outfit that could help producer organizations to go about this expectation transparently.
“Until and unless there was good clean implementation, the policy would die down, and the government would not apply the same principle to other product categories,” he says. Several global tech giants—driven both by a need to meet regulations in their own businesses and a desire to bring change at the grassroots in India—supported him, including Mi India, the country’s largest smartphone and smart TV brand.
Mi India partnered with Karo Sambhav to help its customers get their e-waste picked up from their homes or dropped it off at its stores across the country.
“At Mi India, we believe that our focus should not only be on responsible recycling, but also on awareness generation. Karo Sambhav is creating awareness with schools and bulk consumers of electronic waste through awareness events. They are working very closely with the informal sector and helping them embrace the formal sector and they have succeeded in doing it,” says Prateik Das, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Lead, Mi India.
“But they can’t do it alone. All stakeholders, including the government, brands, customers, dealers, informal sector, recyclers, and producer responsibility organizations (like Karo Sambhav) need to come together and build a self-sustained ecosystem. As per the current rule, the entire liability of collecting and recycling e-waste is on brands only and because of this, the end result is not always so impressive.”
Eastasiasoft Announces Six Switch Games Launching Across December And January
Ryan can list the first 151 Pokémon all in order off by heart – a feat he calls his ‘party trick’ despite being such an introvert that he’d never be found anywhere near a party. He’d much rather just have a night in with Mario Kart and a pizza, and we can’t say we blame him.
