It’s been seven and a half years since Valve first released Proton, a software compatibility layer that allows games developed for Windows to run on Linux-based operating systems, such as SteamOS. Since that time, Proton has been regularly updated, and the latest v11.0 beta release packs a whole host of fixes for games. However, Valve…
Higher or lower, make your choice. Following the release of the more budget-friendly Hautepad C16 / C16-S, Cosmox Gaming is back with another iteration, one that’s perhaps its most interesting design yet. The Hautepad C-AT keeps things on the more affordable end of the scale with its lightweight design and reliance on plastic materials, priced…

In fact, many existing AES games have ballooned in value since the system launched in the ’90s, with prices often hitting thousands of…

Do you ever see the word imposter or sus and cold shivers run down your spine? Well same, and we all have Among Us and its astoundingly large reach to thank for that. It seemed like everyone was playing the social dedication party game back when it released, and especially during Covid, but it seems…
The Adventures of Sir Kicksalot is a very fitting name for the Dark Messiah of Might and Magic-inspired sandbox action game by solo developer Stéphane Le Roy. You sure do a lot of kicking: punting enemies off cliffs, booting their weapons out of their hands, and even lobbing barrels at them. But there’s a lot…
Here at PCG towers, we’ve recently been sorting through some of our old treasure hoard of magazine issues, including interviews with many of the industry’s leading figures. One that recently jumped out to me was a 2008 interview with John Carmack, at which time he was still at id Software, around the launch of Quake…
Meta is increasing the price of the Quest 3 and Quest 3S VR headsets. It says this is down to the high costs of components, namely memory, and the change will affect refurbished units, too. “We’re making this change because the cost of building high-performance VR hardware has risen significantly,” Meta says in a blog…
