When is a gaming handheld not a gaming handheld? Well, I’d argue it’s when you need to strap a bunch of external devices to it in order to get the most out of it, which is exactly what’s happened to the Strix Halo-powered OneXPlayer OneXFly Apex. It’s a seriously impressive-looking device on paper, with what…
For reel. Ever since Viewfinder was first announced for Switch earlier this summer, we’ve been eager to find out how the award-winning photo puzzle game would hold up on the Nintendo hybrid. Well, today we learned that we don’t have long to wait. Thunderful and Sad Owl Games have announced that Viewfinder will arrive on…
I live in a WI-Fi bowl, which, for the mercifully unaware, means that I’m capped at criminally low internet speed. Any game I want to play will take an age to download—it took me three weeks to download Stalker 2. So it goes without saying that I’m always making full use of preloads. One such…

Earlier this year, the DOOM and Quake co-creator John Romero, along with his studio Romero Games, made the shocking announcement online that its publisher (heavily implied to be Microsoft) had pulled the funding for its next project — a new first-person shooter from…
Valve finally pulled the plug. The Dota Pro Circuit — that flawed, bureaucratic, occasionally beautiful mess — is gone. In its place? A wild west of third-party tournaments, inconsistent formats, and a promise that “freedom” will spark creativity. Sounds nice on paper. But anyone paying attention knows what’s really happening: we’ve traded structure for chaos….
Nvidia’s ever-optimistic CEO, Jensen Huang, has revealed more details of the company’s next-gen AI platform at the same GTC event where the company’s quantum computing plans were outlined. He calls it the Vera Rubin “superchip” and claims it contains no fewer than six trillion transistors. Yup, six trillion. In very simple terms, that means the…
