Gearbox boss Randy Pitchford was recently asked about his thoughts on the Stop Killing Games initiative, and as is his wont, he went deep. Heavy. A little sideways. But he was also a lot more thoughtful on the topic, in his own unique way, than you might expect. Also, Battleborn was mentioned. Stop Killing Games…

Three days ago Paramount announced that it had signed a deal with Activision “to bring the iconic Call of Duty universe to life on the big screen.” The breathless press release promised something for fans and newcomers alike, though gave no indication of when and where in the series’ convoluted timeline (which spans everything from…

There’s nothing worse than missing a map in Hollow Knight: Silksong and stumbling around the area blindly hoping you’ll eventually find a bench of a Bellway fast travel point. Just like the original, you should grab map items early, such as the compass and quill, since they’re pretty much vital for tracking your location. Unless,…

I had pretty much written off MindsEye as a dead issue. The first third-party game to be published by IO Interactive, it was such a mess at launch that it might also be the last; concurrent player counts on Steam have crashed to a dozen or so a day, and there’s been literally no sign…

Elon Musk thinks Deus Ex is “one of the best games ever“. It’s not exactly a hot take. But his taste in games also displays an impressive lack of self-awareness. Musk sees himself as an outsider and heroic figure taking on the status quo, despite being the world’s richest man, the owner of X, and…

Bulbous, weighty, and wired—these are the sort of traits you would actively look to avoid when purchasing a gaming headset. Yet on the Audeze LCD-S20 Closed-back, I don’t mind one bit. This isn’t a pair of headphones to wear on the bus or chat over Discord. They don’t even have a microphone. No, the LCD-S20…

Around seven years ago now, I got my first taste of Clap Hanz’s excellent Everybody’s Golf series. I picked up the 2017 game pretty cheap, for reasons I’m not quite sure of—I’ve never really played or enjoyed sports games, I don’t care for golf, and I’d never even heard of the series prior to this…

Like most gaming PCs, yours will probably be using overclocked RAM sticks. You might not think it is, but every time you enable XMP or EXPO, that’s precisely what you’re doing. So, fans of Intel’s latest CPUs might be excited to learn that Asus has just announced that its 800-series boards now support DDR5-7200 without…

Remember bag-gate? That time, many moons ago, when Fallout 76’s launch sparked controversy because of the low quality of the bags included with its Power Armor Edition? Bethesda had promised swish, rugged, canvas things in the promo; when they arrived on players’ doorsteps, they were made of cheap, easily damaged nylon. This took an entire…
