When I first played Red Dead Redemption 2, I vowed to myself that I would not kill any innocent bystanders. I was so determined to complete a high honour run, and while that did largely happen, I can’t deny the fact that there were a few casualties along the way. Sometimes you accidentally hit the…
Prepare for some deep learning. We’ve known that Nvidia’s custom-built Switch 2 chip would bring some DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) magic to the new console for a good while now, though specifics around how the technology is actually working under the hood have been pretty slim.

Activision’s catching tons of cheaters in Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 red-handed—that is, if its official news account on X is to be believed. In a blog posted to the site today, Activision boasted some pretty impressive numbers, at least at first glance. “Cheaters were expected. But our upgraded systems caught them faster than…
The legend of Petscop never ceases to confuse me. If you haven’t heard of this weird blip in internet history, it’s probably for good reason.

“It was a truly exciting concept”. Japan’s obsession with RPGs might lead you to assume that the genre has been part of the country’s video game history since the industry began, but that isn’t the case.
