I've always thought there were a few characters out there who were the perfect match for video games.

Why am I seeing this Ranked on source trust — Eurogamer

It ranks mainly on source trust: Eurogamer is the most reliable outlet we track on this subject, and is the only one on the story so far.

Single-sourced. No second organisation has confirmed it yet.

Link-outLink-out, because only one organisation carries it and no first-party source is on it and the subject could not be identified from the text. Link-out means we point at the publisher and say nothing of our own.

Blended score 0.335 — every figure below is computed, none of it is editorial.
FactorWeightScore ContributionWhere it came from
Corroboration 0.35 0.39 +0.135 40% 1 independent org on the story. Tier-3 aggregators never corroborate — they can show something is circulating, never that it is true.
Source trustleads 0.25 0.80 +0.200 60% Eurogamer is the highest-trust source on this story. Trust is taken from the best source, not averaged.
Pickup rate 0.20 0.00 +0.000 0% One counted organisation, so there is no spread to measure — nothing has picked this up to set a rate.
Freshness 0.20 0.00 +0.000 0% Halves every 10 hours from the newest item on the story. This is the only factor that rewards a story for nothing more than being recent.

Corroboration counts distinct organisations, once each, and only from tiers 1 and 2. Freshness halves every 10 hours, so this ranking is a snapshot and will differ at the next build.

What happened

I've always thought there were a few characters out there who were the perfect match for video games. Batman is always my classic example: he beats up bad guys, does stealth takedowns, and has a built-in arsenal of gadgets that can be conveniently designed for any design obstacle; he has a cool car and cape for driving and/or gliding around an open world, and he has preternatural detective sensibilities to help him solve environmental puzzles - or, I dunno, press R3 to see where to go next.
