“You can make a Pokémon cooking tutorial with just one prompt”. OpenAI recently released its dedicated Sora App, which is being pitched as a rival to TikTok and Instagram, with the key difference being that all the videos are generated via the Sora 2 video generation model. As is the case with many of these…
Everybody super sonic racing. Nintendo has spent the past few decades going from strength to strength with Mario Kart, so it’s not hard to see why companies holding other recognisable IP have wanted to take a crack at the kart-racer formula to see if they can pull a following of their own. While plenty of…
From developer HeartLoop Games. Multiplayer has always been a significant part of fighting games, dating all the way back to the days of the arcade. So, when we first heard about Poly Fighter, a new single-player fighting game from the Canadian studio HeartLoop Games, it’s safe to say we were a little intrigued. Whereas most…
Unreasonably high refresh rates, lightweight gaming mice, and ‘oh, it’s 3 am again… screw it, one more round’: these are the hallmarks of competitive FPS gaming.

The Intel Arc B580 had a bit of a funny launch. Both a killer budget-oriented GPU and a bit of an inconsistent mess, it is clear that the hardware is impressive, despite all the crashes we got while testing. What’s even less impressive, however, is its performance alongside older processors. The B580 is a value-oriented…
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7’s beta starts today for those lucky few with early access, while the open beta will begin in a few days on October 5. Expectations may be pretty low—thanks in no small part to Battlefield 6—but even still, the devs over at Treyarch are determined to put their best foot…
Mark Darrah, a former producer at BioWare, has once more taken to YouTube to voice his opinions on the massive EA buyout. Which is more than fair enough, given the guy worked at BioWare for over 20 years, and has seen firsthand what EA’s company culture did to not only his studio, but others. Unfortunately,…
I hold on to hardware for far longer than I should. If it’s not a weirdly placed sense of sentimentality, it’s the fantasy of 80’s Harrison Ford nimbly picking his way through the frankly dangerous detritus littering my home office, unearthing tech from yesteryear, and declaring “This belongs in a museum!” Well, it turns out…
If you’ve unlocked Lumiere and Cogsworth and invited them to live in your town in Disney Dreamlight Valley, then you’ll want to start making your way through their friendship quests to start reaping the rewards. If you’re stuck levelling his friendship, since you won’t unlock his companion skill until level 2, remember to have daily…
