Credit: Vivendi Universal Games It looks like the iconic The Simpsons: Hit & Run may be making a comeback. During The Simpsons panel at the D23 festival in Anaheim, series creator Matt Groening, perhaps accidentally, revealed plans for a remaster. When asked by a user about a potential sequel to The Simpsons: Hit & Run, Groening said, "That would be awesome. I don't know if I'm allowed to say this, [but] I think the original game is coming back in some form." Groening's statement drew gasps from the audience. "Or not," Selman comically retorted to The Simpsons creator, trying to refocus the audience and defuse the excitement generated by the accidental announcement.

Sony Improves PSSR Scaling Reducing The Load On AI

Gaming

Credit: Sony At the SIGGRAPH 2026 conference, Daniel Craig, Principal Software Engineer at Sony Interactive Entertainment, detailed the updated Enhanced PSSR upscaler model for the PS5 Pro gaming console. Instead of expanding the neural network, the new scaling algorithm operates with a reduced AI load. In the first version of PSSR, almost the entire reconstruction pipeline was placed in a color prediction network (CPN), with the model directly predicting the output color, forcing the network to learn tasks that could be efficiently handled using conventional closed-loop graphics operations. Engineers at Sony Interactive Entertainment and AMD found that this approach created problems ranging from HDR processing to temporal reconstruction and high scaling factors. In the updated v...
