I’m always excited to sift through the pages and pages of demos available at Steam Next Fest, but I can’t lie, even I get a bit exhausted after scrolling for god knows how long. Let’s be real, we all want to play the next big cozy game ahead of time, but the sheer amount of…
Bouncing back. Famitsu has shared the latest look at the Japanese gaming charts, and after falling to Kiryu & co. last week, Mario Tennis Fever has rallied back with a vengeance. Nintendo’s latest finds itself at the top of the pile in its second week, with an extra 14,577 sales pushing it past the 50k…
I somehow have ninety hours in Mewgenics, a game that I’m pretty sure only came out a few hours ago. I love spending my every waking moment discovering just how deep this turn-based tactics game is, all while ignoring requests to play from my actual IRL cats. Sorry Cordelia and Drusilla, but until either of…
AI and data center revenue was very much the focus of Nvidia’s recent earnings call, while gaming took something of a backseat. This won’t come as a surprise to most of you, I’m sure. However, Nvidia executive vice president and chief financial officer Colette Kress did dedicate a small segment of her opening remarks to…
When players return to Nosgoth in Legacy of Kain: Defiance Remastered on PS4 and PS5, they are not only revisiting a defining chapter of the saga, but are also stepping into one that was never released.

We had one of those weeks where decades happen recently: not only did we get hit by Sony’s closure of Bluepoint, but the next day clocked us with the retirement of Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer, who’s dipping out of the company after almost 40 years. Xbox president Sarah Bond, who was expected to take…
If you’ve been thinking, like I have, that we’re still some way off seeing AI being used in games for more than just upscaling or frame generation, then it’s time to think again. That’s because it turns out that Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed Mirage is one of only a tiny number of games to use neural…
YouTuber mryeester, he of zany tech-tweaking antics fame, is at it again, this time creating an infinite ice-cooled PC setup. It may sound silly, it’s probably hideously inefficient. But, by Jove, it actually seems to work. The basic idea here is to use plain old water ice to cool a CPU. You can test the…
Usually, Overwatch‘s bugs are pretty harmless—like Ramattra’s occasionally wonky Nemesis form—but there have been some game-breaking ones lately. Just a week or two ago, progression systems were completely borked, with Blizzard issuing apology lootboxes and event items to all.
