The Xbox Game Store is to become an independent mobile gaming alternative to the App Store and Google Play Store. "Black Adam" brings entertaining entertainment and "Plague Tale Requiem" tells a rat-infested drama.

Microsoft wants to gain a foothold in the mobile gaming sector and is planning its own app store. The takeover of Activision Blizzard is the decisive piece of the puzzle. Netflix is also investing further in games and flirting with the cloud.

Floating above the clouds is Dwayne Johnson in and as "Black Adam". Luca can't quite say the same about himself after his visit to the cinema.

Simon tried out the unusual handheld Playdate and gave the associated crank a good twist.

Too much turning and pushing is why I can't praise Plague Tale Requiem to the skies. The dark drama is nevertheless worth a visit.

As a child, I wasn't allowed to have any consoles. It was only with the arrival of the family's 486 PC that the magical world of gaming opened up to me. Today, I'm overcompensating accordingly. Only a lack of time and money prevents me from trying out every game there is and decorating my shelf with rare retro consoles.
