PC Gaming
Stellar Blade finally hit PC two days ago, giving everyone a chance to do whatever it is this game is actually about. Unfortunately, no one knows what that is, because the entirety of discourse surrounding it is about the main character’s butt. Well, now that butt is on PC, and you know what that means:…
No matter how advanced PCs become, nothing will ever beat the pure, intoxicating vibes of a late 1970s computer. The text-based interface, the sickly glow, the background hum… if I’d been one of the passengers on the Nostromo, it would have taken a facehugger to get me off one of those keyboards. Which isn’t far…
A new report on the Verge is claiming that the Xbox handheld console is toast. Or to quote directly, “it’s essentially canceled”. That initially seems confusing, after all hasn’t the first Xbox handheld only just been announced? There are plenty of caveats to cover off here, not least that this is a rumour about a…
With the news always full of stories about massive data breaches, whether they’re genuinely huge or just a false alarm, it should come as a surprise to learn that the risk of cybercrime affecting gaming has never been greater than at any time before. With billions of PCs, consoles, and phones being used around the…
Bilibili hardware channel 51972 has released a video detailing benchmarking comparisons of 22 different models of the AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT with a slightly troubling conclusion—the variants making use of Samsung GDDR6 memory chips appear to be slightly slower when compared to their SK Hynix-equipped cousins.

To say that I had absolutely no idea what was going on the first time I played Mio: Memories in Orbit is probably an understatement. I was far too busy admiring and exploring the beautiful if slightly creepy landscape to pay much attention to any greater goal. But after getting smacked around by a couple…
RuneScape players haven’t relented since news broke a few days ago that new Jagex CEO Jon Bellamy—also known in-community as Mod North—was effectively killing off Pride Month celebrations in RuneScape and Old School RuneScape (OSRS) in order to “ensure the business is protected against those that would wish us harm.” Speaking to staff, Bellamy said…
Up front disclosure: I’m a sucker for 34-inch ultrawide monitors, I reckon they’re still the sweetspot for sensible-money gaming. With that in mind, you’d think Alienware’s newly updated 34-inch ultrawide OLED monitor, the Alienware 34 AW3425DW, is odds on for a very high score. After all, we loved the OG Alienware 34-inch ultrawide, the Alienware…
It might be hard to imagine in our Fortnite-ified era of shooters, but Fortnite, once upon a time, didn’t have a single crossover to its name. The battle royale, added to the game in 2017, was once free of twerking Thani (is that the plural?), famous pop stars, and Peter Griffin. What’s more, there was…
Nvidia’s Jensen Huang announced the all-singing, all-dancing GB200 AI superchip back in March of 2024, as part of the Blackwell reveal at GTC. However, it’s been difficult to get an impression of just how big one might be in person—until now, that is. Dr. Moritz Lehmann has posted photos of the mighty AI mega-system on…
