Updates on Current Gaming News #7
Do you remember that absurd “Big Chungus” meme?
In this article, I will be covering some recent gaming-related news. Let’s start things off with a funny one.
Do you know that absurd “Big Chungus” meme?
Well, if you don’t, it was a funny image of Bugs Bunny from a certain episode in which he was mocking Elmer Fudd.
Bugs Bunny inflated his body to mock him. That is why this version of him was given the name Big Chungus since he was big and chunky.
Here’s an image and backstory of Chungus himself:
Now you may be asking why I brought up an old meme in an article relating to gaming news. Well, the answer to that question is very interesting.
A Twitter user by the name of Andrew Marmo recently posted an image of a trademark Warner Bros. posted.
Here’s a link to the original post:

This trademark is for Big Chungus, intending to use it in a video game.
If you haven’t put the puzzle pieces together yet, this means Big Chungus may be coming to Multiversus as a playable character.
If you don’t know what Multiversus is, here’s an article I wrote previously talking about the game:
Personally, I can’t wait to see if this actually happens.
I’m really interested to see what class and abilities Big Chungus will have in Multiversus.
In other news, almost 10% of all games on Steam are now officially compatible with the Steam Deck.
If you are just now hearing about the Steam Deck, here’s a link to an article I wrote specifically about it:
10% may not seem like much until you realize there are over 50,000 games currently on Steam.
Not to mention many of those are from indie developers.
So it would be safe to assume most games you want to play are already compatible with the Steam Deck.
Many game developers who have their games on Steam will likely update their games for support for the Steam Deck soon.
But alternatively, if this isn’t enough for you like I mentioned in my Steam Deck article, you can just install Windows onto the Steam Deck and gain access to all 50,00 games.
In one of my previous articles, I introduced a portable cloud gaming console developed by Logitech and Tencent Games.
Here’s a link to that article if you wish to learn more:
Well, now we finally have an idea of what the device itself and the UI will look like, thanks to leaked images.
A Twitter user by the name of Evan Blass posted leaked images of the Logitech G Handheld.
Unfortunately, the images were removed from his post.
But here’s a link to an article by Android Authority which included the images in a recent article on their website:

The design is very clean and simplistic and reminds me of the Nintendo Switch Lite.
The UI also looks pretty straightforward, which is nice to know it won’t be difficult to navigate through.
It seems all your games are categorized neatly by the game streaming service provider.
I’m looking forward to an official reveal from Logitech and Tencent Games.
This concludes my seventh iteration of current gaming news.
