This week’s title, according to the announcement, will be the PC-8801 version of River Hill Soft’s 1988 adventure game Kohakuiro…
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang spoke at the Morgan Stanley Media and Telecom Conference yesterday, and, yes, AI and a celebration of Nvidia’s recent successes were very much on the table. After a somewhat subdued opening (“Wow, no music, no walk on music, no roaring applause?” said Huang, jokingly), the Nvidia head honcho got down to…
Long-time Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella has been surprisingly candid in a recent chat with Morgan Stanley, highlighting, in as many words, how much the company has to thank both Intel and Apple for. This came in response to a question—well, more of a statement than a question—commenting on Nadella “embracing openness”. For instance, regarding Microsoft’s…
Cats and dogs. Intel CPUs and Nvidia GPUs. Now we’ve seen everything, etc. Of course, we’ve known about the Intel-Nvidia collab for a while. One big question is whether it will involve Intel actually making Nvidia GPUs in its foundry. For now, it seems not, despite Intel shifting its marketing pitch on the new 18A…

You only need…
The two developers behind Dead Cells are making the next Castlevania, so of course it’s going to be a roguelike, right? Actually, no. Despite Motion Twin and Evil Empire’s pedigree, Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse is going to be a bit more traditional in that it’s a 2D action-exploration romp without roguelike mechanics. This was confirmed by…
Raising the spirits. Back in 2021, you may recall the release of Ember Lab’s celebrated Kena: Bridge of Spirits on PS5 – perhaps you even played it on Sony’s consoles or PC. This lovely-looking indie adventure was snapped up by PlayStation in a timed exclusivity deal on consoles until it came to Xbox in 2024…
It’s a kinda magic. Back in March of last year, I was fortunate enough to review the AYANEO 3, a Windows-based handheld gaming system which cost almost $2,000 in its top-spec version. Powered by cutting-edge AMD Ryzen chips capable of running AAA games with ease and boasting a pin-sharp OLED screen, the AYANEO 3 supplanted…
