"Is big tech defining the metaverse? 10 yrs ago, who'd predict Roblox would be the size that it is? Big players are now utilities. Agile creators that actually assemble community-led content across platforms will lead the way & the games industry will play a huge role here."
NOW LIVE! @BrooseG & @georgina_felce are chatting new gaming technologies and platforms with @uk_ie
"At the heart of it, the metaverse isn't one place, it's a recognition of how socially, technically we can come together online"
Someone give these two a podcast series already!!

โ If you've been reading interviews with @johnwastaken now have lots of questions about the magic of cloud-native gaming, we've got your back polystream.com/technology
THIS! From day one, we've set out to show that cloud-native gaming can open up exciting new ways to make and engage with 3D content.
With @mythicalgames we are now super hyped and laser focused on bringing game-led experiences to everyone, gamers non-gamers alike #cloudDNA
Hearing @XboxP3 address the acquisition is pretty enlightening. Gamepass and cloud gaming is front and center at the core of their strategy.
This makes me even more excited about @mythicalgames's acquisition of @Polystream this its cloud gaming capabilities.
If we retweet a retweet that's retweeted, that retweets, could we break Twitter by building a perpetual retweet?
Looking forward to big things from @mythicalgames and @Polystream!!
Day One of being part of the @mythicalgames fam, and they already sent our team welcome cupcakes! It's like they KNOW us. Think we will like it here!! #AcquisitionsAreAwesome ๐ง
