I’ve owned an awful lot of ethernet cables in my life, in all sorts of colors. Black, blue, white, grey, yellow, green… even brown and red, I’m pretty sure. If you asked me what’s the most common ethernet cable color outside black and white, I’d probably go with blue—but this weekend I learned that when…
I wouldn’t be surprised if the devs at House House are a little disappointed that their new co-op puzzle game, Big Walk, will inevitably draw comparisons to “friendslop,” the loose genre applied to viral hits like Repo, Lethal Company, and Peak. Despite its floppy characters and emphasis on proximity chat, Big Walk doesn’t have much…
The Czech Republic and Japan share an unexpected international friendship, and it’s thanks to the profound, unifying magic of baseball. Japanese baseball fans adopted the Czech national baseball team as their foster favorite after the two countries faced off in the 2023 World Baseball Cup. The mostly amateur Czech team lost 2-10, but not before…
Another week, another fun tidbit learned about our new favorite gamer turned movie star, Inde Navarrette, who creeped us all the hell out in the smash-hit horror film Obsession earlier this year. We already marveled at Navarrette cooly streaming her Call of Duty killstreaks on Twitch while wearing a Toad hat, and we were charmed…
Last month, as it continued to navigate the PR craters left by its thousands of layoffs and IDF patronage, Microsoft announced that it was bringing four original Xbox games to PC through a new Backward Compatibility for PC program. Now, it seems Microsoft has bigger PC port plans in store, expanding its backwards-facing content strategy….
Remember those ‘I’m a Mac, and I’m a PC’ ad spots from years ago? Such platform rivalry feels like old, mouldering hat these days (especially to a console-gaming interloper like me). That said, we live in a world where both the MacBook Neo and the Dell XPS 13, two notebooks alike in dignity, are vying…
My, how the world can change in a year. The previous version of the Razer Blade 16 shot to the top of our best gaming laptop guide upon its release in 2025, thanks to its fantastic chassis design, great performance, and battery-powered gaming abilities, among other virtues. Yes, it was hugely expensive. But thanks to…
MSI has just announced the Pro Max OLED 271UPJW12, and if you aren’t a monitor wizard who can make sense of all those numbers, that’s a new 27-inch 4K inkjet-printed OLED monitor. If you are unfamiliar with what that means, inkjet printing is a cheaper process than the traditional deposition process used by LG and…
We’re working on what’s next for PC Gamer, on pcgamer.com, our magazine, on social platforms, and in video. Gaming is a dynamic, sprawling landscape and we’ve got some great ideas about how PC Gamer best fits into it as this vibrant medium continues to evolve. What’s essential, of course, is that we better understand you…
Dragon’s Dogma 2 will be getting its first big proper chunk of DLC soon, and in addition to nixing those weird microtransactions that did more harm to word-of-mouth than the actual game, it’s also slated to be getting a hard mode difficulty for players who have everything maxed out. That’s per a Q&A featured on…
