Death Stranding 2: On The Beach is due for release on PlayStation 5 in June, and let’s hope it doesn’t take eight months to come across to PC this time. Creator and director Hideo Kojima has just done a big interview with IGN to accompany some preview coverage, within which he just cannot stop with…
Lae’zel is a lot of things—a proud warrior of Vlaakith, a fierce combatant, and a genuinely impressive character, able to grapple with her faith and still come out determined to do things the right way. Turns out, her voice actor shares that determination. In a recent interview with ReadyAimFire, Devora Wilde tells two understandably-astonished interviewers…
Alienware has just announced a couple of new gaming laptops that go by ‘Aurora’ and have a rather simple and clean design. We’re talking rounded corners, a single, simple logo, a “chamfered” (sloping) front edge for one-handed opening, and no thermal shelf at the rear. I quite like it, but I know some find such…
The power of nostalgia is an incredible thing. It can make you really crave spaghetti hoops after a hard day’s work, it can make you feel like a kid when you get a whiff of a scent that you can’t quite place, and it can make you restart Minecraft for the tenth time, only to…
When folks talk about transparent hardware, I’m sure I’m not the only one whose frame of reference is still stuck somewhere between the mid-90s and the early oughts. Besides sleuthing with Barbie on the family desktop, my earliest gaming memories involved affixing my tiny mitts to my semi-transparent Game Boy Color. For a hot second…
The last time I played Frostpunk 2, I was about a hair’s breadth away from a political breakdown. I had somehow managed to anger every faction. I fell behind on promises I made to pass laws, and every time I get something done I end up pissing off more people than I impress. In the…
I confess that I’d forgotten all about Mafia: The Old Country, the fourth game in the long-running series and the second developed by Hangar 13 (not including its remake of the OG Mafia). Indeed, the last time I’d thought about Hangar 13 was a few years ago, after it laid off a substantial amount of…
Cybersecurity company, Hive Systems, has just put out its 2025 Password Table as a continuation of its yearly analysis of how difficult passwords are to crack. The results are in, and while it’s not exactly pretty, the good news is that unless you’re against computing might of a multibillion global AI company, you’re probably safe…
Helldivers 2 players were very excited today over a Warbond that, per Arrowhead CEO Shams Jorjani, would allegedly make players “shit their pants”. That’s via an offhanded joke by way of Discord message that has spawned an entire swarm of memes. I’m about to link one of them, and then I’ll let you browse the…
Cooking is involved in a lot of the quests in Disney Dreamlight Valley, but the request to rustle up a fairly fancy appetizer is a bit vague. More often than not, you’re given the exact recipe you need to bake or cook for a task, but sometimes you’re thrown a real curveball and have to…
