Snap & Grab is No Goblin's campy, photography-based heist game
Photography games can be hyper-realistic simulations of the real thing or a vehicle for ogling cute creatures, but No Goblin's Snap & Grab is forging a different path by treating photography as a key ingredient in a good heist. The upcoming game as part of the Day of the Devs showcase at Summer Game Fest 2025, ahead of its launch in 2026. Based on the trailer, Snap & Grab can be broken into two distinct parts. There's the snapping, where you'll play as a professional photographer grooving through (high-fashion) high society, taking pictures of things you want to steal. And the grabbing, where you'll lay out those photos in a workflow of sorts for your team of thieves to follow during a heist. Some of the things you'll photograph might be obstacles or parts of the environment you can manipulate in your favor and it looks like more than a few could just be cute pictures of dogs.

Like No Goblin's other games, 100ft Robot Golf and Roundabout , over-the-top, silly theming is the name of the game. In the case of Snap & Grab , that's a sort of cartoon-y 80's aesthetic — think Miami Vice by way of Johnny Bravo and you'll be in the ballpark of the hair and shoulder pads No Goblin is playing with. Luckily, you won't have to wait long to see the game for yourself. No Goblin says Snap & Grab is coming to PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X / S in 2026.

Family Guy's Seth MacFarlane turns to alcohol to deal with stage fright: 'I definitely get nervous'
Seth MacFarlane "definitely gets nervous" before a performance. The 51-year-old star is best known as the creator of the long-running animation series 'Family Guy' but has also released eight studio albums during his career and admitted that he has previously had to turn to alcohol to cope with stage fright. Speaking on 'CBS Sunday Mornings', when asked if he sees himself an introvert, he said: "Oh hell, yeah! I don't even wanna be here! No, I'm just kidding! "I think I had, like, four Scotches before I walked out on stage at the Oscars. I do get...I definitely get nervous." After graduating with a degree in animation from Rhode Island School of Design, Seth was all set to study a graudate programme in musical theatre but was then suddenly recruited to work on the carton series 'Johnny Bravo' 'Cow and Chicken' and 'Dexter's Laboratory' for Hana-Barbera so jumped at the chance, but admitted there was a his signature creation may never have come to fruition at all. He said: "My sister at the time was going to the Boston Conservatory of Music for musical theatre. She has a beautiful singing voice. I had gotten it into my head that I was going to go to grad school for musical theatre as well, so I applied and got in and was all set to go for their grad programme, but then I got this offer from Hanna-Barbera to come do an animated short for a series they were doing so I just had to take it and I moved out to California. "There was an incident there where I could have diverged into a completely different career and never even thought about something called 'Family Guy'." Seth also voices the roles of Peter, Brian and Stewie Griffin on 'Family Guy' and admitted that after more than 25 years on air, he has now begun to "analyse" the near-the-knuckle comedy in the programme in a way he hasn't done so before. He said: "When I started the show, my attitude was 'It doesn't matter, none of it matters. Let's do it...' and now that I'm older, I look back at the shows that we've done and think it's a little more complicated than that. "Comedy and jokes do have an impact. I have to figure out a way to maintain what the show is, and maintain this thing that people love but at the same time recognise that I am analysing it now in a different way than I did when I was younger."

Do You Remember These 15 Nostalgic Cartoons?
I recently realized that many cartoons I grew up watching are now over 20 years old. While I ponder time flying, here are some you might remember watching if you're a Millennial or Gen Zer! 1. Ed, Edd n Eddy (1999–2008) was a top-tier Cartoon Network television series. 2. Dexter's Laboratory (1996–2003) is another gem from Cartoon Network's golden age. Cartoon Network 3. Batman: The Animated Series (1992–1995) changed the game for animated comic book adaptations. Fox Kids 4. Spider-Man: The Animated Series (1994–1998) is very underrated. Fox Kids 5. CatDog (1998–2005) is a Nicktoon that should be talked about more often. Nickelodeon 6. Cow and Chicken 's theme song (1997–1999) is a massive earworm. Cartoon Network 7. Rocko's Modern Life (1993–1996) paved the way for SpongeBob SquarePants. Nickelodeon 8. Gargoyles (1994–1997) was Disney's answer to Batman: The Animated Series. ABC 9.

Disney 13. The Wild Thornberrys (1998–2004) gets overshadowed by other Nicktoons, but I remember it being a fun watch. Nickelodeon 14. When it comes to '90s Nicktoons, Hey Arnold! (1996–2004) can only be matched by a certain one below... Nickelodeon 15. You honestly can't bring up nostalgic cartoons without bringing up Rugrats (1991–2003). It's the definitive '90s cartoon. Nickelodeon Which of these cartoons do you fondly remember the most?

George Lowe, the voice behind Space Ghost on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim, dies at 67
George Lowe, the voice behind the irreverent animated superhero on Adult Swim's 'Space Ghost Coast to Coast,' has died. He was 67. He died Sunday in Lakeland, Florida, two of his business representatives said. Lowe had been struggling to recover from elective heart surgery in November, his family said in a statement. 'Over the past few months, his family and friends have been by his side in support and care for him,' the statement said. Lowe's booming voice and off-the-wall humor turned 'Space Ghost Coast to Coast' into a cult classic among young adults and teens. The show debuted in 1994 and aired for more than a decade on Cartoon Network as part of its Adult Swim nighttime programming block. It was Cartoon Network's first original production and set the foundation for several other original series including 'The Powerpuff Girls,' 'Courage the Cowardly Dog' and 'Johnny Bravo.' On 'Space Ghost Coast to Coast,' Lowe played the role of cartoon superhero Space Ghost, who hosted a talk show and interviewed real celebrities. While the interviews with the likes of William Shatner, Conan O'Brien and Donny Osmond were pre-recorded, Lowe would later add wacky and rambling digressions, such as asking guests if they were getting enough oxygen. 'Insanity became en vogue, thanks to us,' Lowe told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution in 2004. Adult Swim President Michael Ouweleen said the show proved the network could find success with its own productions. 'You all knew him as Space Ghost (and all his other characters), but we knew him as himself, a true character in his own right, one that left an indelible mark on all of us at Adult Swim,' he said. The show's producers would begin recording Lowe as soon as he stepped into the booth, Ouweleen said, creating some of the best material 'when he didn't realize he was being recorded.' Lowe voiced several other characters on Adult Swim shows, including 'Robot Chicken,' 'Aqua Teen Hunger Force' and 'The Brak Show.' Until this past year, he continued to make regular appearances at comic book and sci-fi conventions. Lowe, who was born in Dunedin, Florida, began his career as a disc jockey and television personality in Florida and Georgia. He continued to do voice work for radio stations after Adult Swim. He was an avid folk and pop art collector and a self-taught artist whose intricate pen and ink drawings were displayed in several museums, including The High Museum of Art in Atlanta where his work is part of its permanent collection. There were no details available on his survivors. His family said there will be a private service.
