It’s brand-new, honest. Sony stopped making its PS1 console a few decades ago now, and while we had the PlayStation Classic back in 2018, the Japanese electronics giant is very much focused on modern tech today, pushing its manufacturing might behind the PS5 and PS5 Pro. However, given the popularity of the PS1, it’s easy…
Are you familiar with the concept of ‘architectural forgery’? Before today, neither was I. In Japan, proposed construction exceeding a certain number of floors must prove it is structurally safe (and, importantly, earthquake resistant) by submitting architectural drawings and calculations to the authorities. In late 2005, it came to light that a number of earthquake…
Maker of most of the world’s cutting-edge chips, TSMC, is reportedly accelerating its plans to produce modern 3 nm chips in the USA. Originally pencilled in for 2028, TSMC is now said to be aiming to pull in production to 2027 in response to tariffs threatened by the Trump administration. But will that be soon…
Slippery slope. Gosh, you can really feel Nintendo’s distinct lack of output at the moment, huh? With the Switch 2 on the horizon and nothing of particular significance now until Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition on 20th March, the UK Charts is mostly comprised of evergreen titles. Donkey Kong Country Returns HD is hanging in…
Killing Floor 3 is one of the most visceral games I’ve ever played. Insofar as, well, even a simple firefight will leave the place spattered with viscera, every corner of the room filled with buckets full of gore for just a handful of kills. It’s enough to make you want to reach for a mop…
While the first Nvidia RTX 50-series GPUs are now with us in the form of mighty (and perhaps melty?) graphics cards, some of us have been looking towards mobile versions of the GPUs for our slice of the Blackwell pie. We’ve been waiting until a March launch for RTX 50-series laptops, and now Nvidia has…
We’re less than a week away from Avowed’s full release, which is on February 18, 2025, and as part of the lead-up to this, Blizzard has released a small bit of news about Obsidian Entertainment’s upcoming game: players will be able to switch between Avowed on their PC and their Xbox. “Avowed breaks down barriers…
Back in early January when Nvidia announced the RTX 5070, the mid-range member of the new RTX 50 family was given a February launch date. Now rumours indicate the GPU has been pushed back to March. Long time GPU-rumour leaker on X, MEGAsizeGPU, says, “the RTX 5070 will be delayed. Instead of February, it will…
The Shadow Base 800 FX is great. It’s a generous size without taking up too much space. It’s colourful and covered in LEDs without being tacky. It comes with four reliable 140 mm fans for quieter operation and heaps of airflow. Most of all, it’s just easy to build into. For that reason alone, I’m…
“This is the greatest gaming achievement I have ever accomplished”. He may have been replaced by “Mr. Dream” in some versions of the game, but for many people, Mike Tyson continues to be the star of the NES Punch-Out!!, released in 1987. Tyson is the final character the player fights in the game and is…
