As a survival fan, I appreciate what Funcom has done with Dune: Awakening’s water and hydration system. I played about 25 hours of the beta over the past couple of weeks, and water is a major concern right out of the gate—not a surprise on the desert planet of Arrakis. And each time you solve…

Oblivion Remastered fixes many of the original game’s crimes. You no longer have to grind your minor skills to level efficiently, for instance. Alas, it’s left one of them intact: levelled loot.

Razer, a brand I associate with some rather excellent gaming mice, has announced two productivity-focussed squeakers, the $100 Pro Click V2 and the $120 Pro Click V2 Vertical Edition.
