The big month is here. For whatever reason, the games biz decided that February is a great time for gorging on new games, and absolutely stuffed it with big releases. It’d be even more packed had Assassin’s Creed Shadows not been delayed to March, but even then it’ll be an unusually consequential month for PC…
Whistleblower Edward Snowden, who in 2013 leaked classified documents to the press revealing the existence of an extensive US digital surveillance regime, has come out as a surprisingly scathing critic of Nvidia’s new RTX 50-series of graphics cards. “Endless next-quarter thinking has reduced the Nvidia brand to ‘F-tier value for S-tier prices,’” Snowden wrote on…

The last thing I need in my life is another factory game, if only because allowing any factory game into your life risks it being consumed entirely by its sprawling, hopelessly absorbing logistics puzzle. But then Cordyceps Collective went and mashed up Factorio with last year’s colony simulation Empire of the Ants, and now I…
