AMD is reportedly raising graphics card prices—it was just waiting for Nvidia to do it first

Halo: Campaign Evolved doesn’t have split-screen on PC, but this mod fixes that, if you’re willing to look past some quirks

Cortana between a rock and a hard place. Split-screen works on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, which is what makes the lack of support on PC strange. Thanks to a new mod, however, PC players can now join in on the fun. The mod, available on Nexus Mods (via PC Gamer), lets you play

Gears of War: E-Day’s new Horde may be the game’s most interesting mode, but it left me with more questions than answers

Before I get into my time with it, I have to add a caveat: this hasn’t been the most organised preview event I’ve taken part in. Account authentication and build encryption issues – on two separate occasions – prevented me from delving as deep into it as I could. All told, I only got to

Halo: Campaign Evolved’s ‘death barriers’ and ungenerous out-of-bounds restrictions are making the 42 skull grind a real bore

It’s something I mentioned in my review; Campaign Evolved is very much a remake, not a remaster. There is plenty of tweaking and changing, and nigh-on the entire back half of the campaign has been redesigned to offset how repetitive and brutal those Flood sections were in the 2001 original.

Samsung Electronics, one of the big three memory makers, is making a lot of money. So much money that its cash flow is multiple times what it was making just a handful of years ago. And despite much of its memory being fed straight to AI data centers, it is noting that memory supply will
