Warning: Act 3 spoilers ahead! The first time I heard about an Iron Throne in Baldur’s Gate 3 was through a cryptic message hidden inside a fireworks shop. “Hah! That clever Gortash,” I thought as I read through the letter. “He’s stashed a bunch of explosives under that chair in his throne room, doubtless in…
Cyberpunk: Edgerunners is fantastic, and—like Cyberpunk 2077 itself—it’s something I hadn’t engaged with until recently. I’m new to the post-corpo war hellscape of this setting, but I figured after sinking about 20 hours into the game itself I might as well check out this anime everyone’s been raving about.

Resident Evil 4 VR Mode invites players to dive into the world of Resident Evil 4 and directly step into Leon’s shoes to take on grueling survival missions in the ultimate immersive experience.

Samsung’s new laptop memory range promises upgradeable memory without the performance glass ceiling of SO-DIMMs. Its newly announced range of Low Power Compression Attached Memory Modules (LPCAMMs) will dramatically shrink the amount of space normally given over to traditional laptop memory modules, but don’t expect that to mean a reduction in the number of soldered-on…

As reported by IndieRetroNews, The Parker Brothers’ 1982 adaptation of Star Wars: Empire Strikes Back for the Intellivision and Atari 2600 has just received a rather unexpected and incredible-looking port for the Commodore Plus/4 (the home productivity computer released by Commodore International in 1984). The port…
The best thing about watching speedrunners is seeing just how far they’ll go to break their favourite games. No matter how old a game is, no matter how ‘solved’ its speedrun may seem, there’ll always be new surprises just around the corner. Super Mario 64 has long been a favourite of the speedrunning community, and…
Fair warning, chooms, the release of Cyberpunk 2077’s Phantom Liberty DLC means that CD Projekt’s deckheads have temporarily geeked your installed mods in order to prevent, uh, mushis. I can’t keep this up. Honestly, I’m just taking all these verbatim from a Cyberpunk slang wiki page. What am I even saying? In plainer terms, a…
PlatinumGames co-founder Hideki Kamiya has revealed that he’ll be parting ways with the studio next month. The news was originally announced on the developer’s Twitter, where a statement reads: “We regret to announce that Hideki Kamiya will be leaving PlatinumGames on October 12, 2023. We are truly grateful for his creative ideas, leadership, and contribution…
There are plenty of absurd weapons in Cyberpunk 2077’s Phantom Liberty expansion. You’ve got the combo of throwing Fang into someone’s leg before blowing it off with Bald Eagle, the unique burning mechanic on guns like Taigan, Laika, and Alabai, which you can only get from airdrops, and Crimestopper’s ability to disable cyberlimbs, stopping your…
Great news, VR fans. Valve has just released SteamVR 2.0 in beta. This is the software that powers the entire virtual reality experience on Steam, from hooking up to hardware to the interface you use to whizz around virtual worlds, and it just got a ton more features. “Today we are shipping SteamVR 2.0 in…
