Palworld continues to prove that it’s more than a flash-in-the-pan novelty. The survival-crafting romp with legally distinct pokémon just had its second weekend since it hit 1.0, following a couple of years in early access, and it’s only getting more popular. The second weekend saw concurrents approaching a million on Steam (961,867, to be exact), […]
I’m not sure who thinks we need a Call of Duty movie, but it’s officially a thing, and it’s coming out on June 30, 2028. It’s “an authentic and exciting experience for longtime fans and newcomers alike.” While this tidbit was confirmed earlier in the year, Activision and Paramount gave us little more than that
Well, it turns out that Bethesda’s executive producer Todd Howard and I have at least two things in common—we’re both roughly 5 feet 6 inches tall, and we’re both chronic Reddit lurkers. Admittedly, I only have IMDB to go by when it comes to the height thing. Maybe it’s wrong! But the Reddit thing is
Streamer Uwos Lab built an entirely battery powered gaming PC over the course of a five-hour stream last week. The rules were simple: no laptops, and no lithium ion AA batteries. The build had to be a desktop that could play a game while only relying on battery power. The self-described ‘Mad-scientist streamer’ explained their
The PC hardware market right now is not a pretty sight, so it’s nice to hear one of the companies arguably at least in part responsible acknowledging how bad things are from a customer’s perspective. Even if that is taken with the giant pinch of salt considering it’s being approached from a business perspective, and
Ayaneo said it was suspending pre-orders for its Next 2 gaming handheld earlier this year after rising storage costs and the ongoing memory crisis made it “no longer sustainable.” Well, it’s now listed on Ayaneo’s website—with an asking price for the top model of $5,299. I’ll wait for you to pick up your jaw. Back
There are many things that I would do to my graphics card—undervolt it, treasure it, sing it lullabies—but I probably wouldn’t slap a gigantic heatsink on it just to eliminate the fan. Don’t get me wrong, passive cooling is nice, but I’m glad I don’t have to DIY it myself, creating the monstrosity I’ve just
It’s that time of year again: The next Call of Duty is on deck, and Activision’s got the beta dates to prove it. Modern Warfare 4 won’t hit the streets until late October, but the multiplayer beta begins a full two months ahead of time. As usual, Activision is holding two beta weekends: One for
Of the many remarkable abilities possessed by Dishonored hero Corvo Attano, perhaps the most remarkable is, well, possession: Corvo can possess creatures, most famously the game’s plentiful rats, to get up to all sorts of trouble, including accessing locations that would be inaccessible to his full-sized body. As it turns out, this wasn’t an entirely
What would you say to the following pitch: a Deus Ex fan mod, in the works for seven years, set in a Deus Ex forum whose moderator has been abducted. The factions consist of people like goat worshippers and llama devotees, some enemies use sporks, and people use phrases like “What the radish?” without cringing.
