Gamescom is upon us and announcements around all things gaming are coming thick and fast. Whether you’re excited about new game releases like Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 or fancy hardware, there’s something coming out of Gamescom 2025 to grab your attention. One line of products I personally wasn’t expecting was Sony’s new line…
A horde of howling orks comes charging across the wartorn wasteland, straight towards the men and women of the Astra Militarum, waiting with guns primed, hiding behind walls, readying themselves for death. Then angels fall from the heavens; heavily armoured saviours in drop pods that slam to the ground and annihilate any orks unlucky enough…
We’ve got a brand new clue for today’s Wordle all typed up and ready to go. Peek as early as you like—it’s here to help, not instantly give away the August 20 (1523) Wordle answer. Although if you like the sound of that, either because you’re short of time or patience, or it’s just one…
One of the low-key most exciting changes in Dawn of War: Definitive Edition is the shift to a 64-bit exe, which makes it a more stable platform for modding. Dawn of War is beloved for its sense of scale, and being able to expand that even further with massive numbers of enemies on screen and…
Tales of Xillia released exclusively for PS3 in 2011, and it’s been stuck there ever since. It’s a widely loved instalment in the Tales Of series, which is no small feat when there are 17 of them. Xillia featured two protagonists for the first time in the series’ history, and a combat system people still…
Apart from a wonderfully curvaceous 30th anniversary RTX 5090, the product that I saw get probably the most attention at Asus ROG’s event earlier was the ROG Swift OLED PG27AQWP-W. Asus is calling this the “fastest OLED monitor in the market”, and for good reason. We’ve seen plenty of fast monitors over the past few…
OLED monitors are an envy of mine. That’s why it comes naturally for me to sit behind my IPS screen and point out some of the still-remaining flaws of the tech, namely burn-in and low brightness. But on this front, Asus might have an answer in the form of tandem WOLED monitors such as in…
A group of current and former Microsoft employees, as well as members of the Seattle community and pro-Palestinian protesters, set up a “Liberated Zone” encampment in Microsoft’s East Campus Plaza earlier today, which they renamed to “The Martyred Palestinian Children’s Plaza.” An announcement shared by No Azure for Apartheid, an organization calling for Microsoft to…
Though it doesn’t hold up particularly well, Star Wars: Dark Forces was a pretty big deal back in 1996. Outlaws, on the other hand, wasn’t: it was LucasArts’ second attempt at a first-person shooter using its own Jedi Engine, and few people I talk to about ’90s FPS games ever seem to remember it. Which…
Those aren’t mountains, they’re waves. Among all the cool near-future operators and wall jumps seen in the big Black Ops 7 reveal today, one detail from Activision’s extensive blog post loomed large: Black Ops 7 will carry forward all weapons and cosmetics from last year’s game, setting the stage for a tidal wave of tacky…
