Itch.io is removing NSFW games to comply with payment processors' rules
has deindexed and hidden all adult games from its browse and search pages to make sure it doesn't lose the ability to sell with the payment processors it uses. The gaming marketplace, which mainly hosts titles from indie developers, has admitted in an announcement that it wasn't able to give creators advance notice. It "had to act urgently to protect the platform's core payment infrastructure," it said, because the "situation developed rapidly." The website explained that it recently came under the scrutiny of its payment processors after an organization called Collective Shout launched a campaign against Steam and Collective Shout, which describes itself as an Australian grassroots campaigning movement, directed its concerns to the gaming marketplaces' payment processors. It originally focused its campaign around the game No Mercy that revolves around a character engaging in rape and sexual violence. Both and Steam removed the game back in April. In its open letter to payment processors published earlier this month, however, the group said it "discovered hundreds of other games featuring rape, incest and child sexual abuse" on Steam and since then. Steam already banned "content that may violate the rules and standards set forth" by its payment processors, which mostly affected adult games. Now, is also clearly heading that way. At the moment, the website is doing a comprehensive audit of its content and will keep adult games delisted until it's done. After it's finished, it will introduce new compliance measures and will require creators of adult games to confirm that their titles are allowed under the rules of the payment processors linked to their account. admitted that some games will be permanently removed from its marketplace as part of its review and the new policy it will put in place, but it said its "ability to process payments is critical for every creator" on its platform. "To ensure that we can continue to operate and provide a marketplace for all developers, we must prioritize our relationship with our payment partners and take immediate steps towards compliance," the website said in its announcement. Although No Mercy's removal from gaming websites is understandably celebrated by a lot of people, users are concerned about the potential effects of marketplaces adopting anti-porn rules. Queer content, for instance, is disproportionately affected by censorship measures and could be tagged as "adult" or "NSFW" even when it doesn't contain anything sexual.

‘MasterChef' exclusive clip: ‘There's gonna be hell to pay' over undercooked, ‘mooing' steaks
"There's gonna be hell to pay" on tonight's dramatic episode of MasterChef. The Top 8 duos take on another demanding team challenge outside the comforts of the MasterChef kitchen — crafting a VIP dining experience aboard a moving steam train. The pressure is on as they race against time in an intense test of teamwork, hoping to avoid running off the rails (both figuratively and literally). More from Gold Derby 'Big Brother 27' spoilers: Rachel threatens all-out 'war' after Keanu points out her flaws from 15 years ago Zae Frederich on his dramatic exit from 'Big Brother,' Jimmy's HOH win, and why he wasn't 'fanboying' over Rachel In an exclusive preview clip below, the judges harshly critique the Red Team's steak dinner and issue a stern warning to team captains Zach and Michelle Lamb: one duo's mistakes may derail the entire operation. "They look sloppy," Joe Bastianich scolds during a taste test. "We need more precision, more perfection." The tension escalates further as Gordon Ramsay and Tiffany Derry take aim at the underseasoned crab meat, and Joe delivers another blow, this time targeting the dish's undercooked steaks. "That's black and blue," he says, visibly unimpressed. "If I start bringing back steaks from the dining room mooing like this, there's gonna be hell to pay." So, who is behind the steaks? The culprit is mother-daughter duo Tonna and Cait Jacobson, a pairing Gordon admits he's "not comfortable with" when it comes to cooking the beef. Will Zach and Michelle find a way to steer their team toward redemption, or is failure inevitable? Tune in tonight at 8 p.m. ET/PT to find out which duos can rise above the chaos aboard this high-pressure challenge — and don't forget to check out our recap at Gold Derby.

The Outer Worlds 2 will no longer be one of Microsoft's first $80 Xbox games
Microsoft-owned developer Obsidian Entertainment is announcing a price drop for the The Outer Worlds 2 today. The game was originally supposed to debut at $79.99 in October, but it's now going back to the regular $69.99 Xbox game price. Microsoft announced earlier this year that it would be raising the price of new Xbox first-party games from $69.99 to $79.99, alongside increases to its consoles and controllers. The move to suddenly drop the price of The Outer Worlds 2 is a clear sign that preorders haven't gone too well and that gamers are rejecting Microsoft's initial move to $79.99 Xbox games. If you've already purchased the game then refunds will be handled by the Microsoft Store, Steam, PlayStation store or wherever you preordered The Outer Worlds 2. It will be interesting to see whether Microsoft continues to push its new Xbox game pricing, or whether this is a sign that it's rethinking the increase to $79.99.
