Nintendo 64 classic Jet Force Gemini will join the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack subscription service next week, on Thursday 30th November.
This sci-fi third-person shooter was developed during the N64 heyday of British studio Rare, and launched during the four-year period the company also released classics such as GoldenEye 007, Banjo-Kazooie, Donkey Kong 64 and Perfect Dark.
It may not have the brand power of some of those, but it's still a solid arcade-inspired adventurey shooter with a lengthy single-player and a deathmatch-style multiplayer.
The plot involves the Jet Force Gemini — an intergalactic space police — stopping an army of drones. You play as either Juno (who can traverse through lava), his sister Vela (who can swim) or Lupus the dog (who can hover, obviously).

«Although it never garnered the sort of acclaim or success that the firm's really big titles did, it was an extremely slick and well-made third-person shooter,» Eurogamer wrote in our round-up of some of the best N64 games. «Heavily anime-influenced visuals and character designs set the perfect tone for a game in which you were on a mission to stop the plans of an evil space insect overlord.»
It’s good news and bad news for Assassin’s Creed Mirage. First, the bad news: the permadeath mode Ubisoft had said would come out in December is delayed to early 2024.

Google Gemini AI has been launched on Wednesday and it has been injected into its Bard chatbot. This is a new-generation artificial intelligence model and, although Google executives refused to compare it with the OpenAI chatbot, it is being hyped up as being able to reason better than ChatGPT and other rivals. "This is incredible momentum, and yet, we're only beginning to scratch the surface of what's possible," Google chief executive Sundar Pichai said in a release. While OpenAI teamed up with Microsoft to add financial heft, Google has gone with DeepMind to create Gemini, the main competitor to ChatGPT.
After delaying the launch just a few days ago and indicating that it would see the light of day sometime early next year, Google Gemini AI has finally, been rolled out! Google, the 'AI first' company is finally fighting back against OpenAI's ChatGPT about a year after the latter's launch. With OpenAI stealing the limelight and much of the business around AI chatbots, Google has its work cut out, but CEO Sundar Pichai says, “We're approaching this work boldly and responsibly,” Google CEO Sundar Pichai wrote in a blog post. “That means being ambitious in our research and pursuing the capabilities that will bring enormous benefits to people and society, while building in safeguards and working collaboratively with governments and experts to address risks as AI becomes more capable.”
Google introduced Gemini 1.0 back at Google I/O 2023, and today, the company has finally launched it in three sizes. It is going to start rolling out to Bard.

In a surprising turn of events, Google has decided to postpone the highly-anticipated launch of its AI model, Google Gemini AI. Initially scheduled for release next week, the company has now rescheduled the launch to January. The initial announcement had come months ago during the annual I/O 2023 conference, where Google, alongside Alphabet co-founder Sergey Brin, introduced Gemini, the latest addition to its AI portfolio. The decision to delay the launch was attributed to concerns about the AI model's non-reliability in handling non-English queries. Sundar Pichai, Google's CEO, personally opted for the delay to ensure the global language support is robust, aiming to surpass the capabilities of OpenAI's GPT-4.
