Final Fantasy 14 is famous for, as much as anything, its music—and its lead composer, Masayoshi Soken, is very much part of that equation. As someone with one too many hours in the MMO myself, I can testify that this man’s orchestration skills have moved me to tears more than once. He may, however, have…
I think it’s fair to say that a defining feature of the RTX 50-series launch has been an overall lack of availability.

Serial PC hardware market watchers and soothsayers Canalys has dumped its latest set of PC hardware sales data. And the raw numbers are good, with total PC sales up by nearly 10% for the first quarter of a 2025 compared to the same period last year. But with Trump’s China tariffs escalating by the minute,…
The chicken jockey trend is currently ripping its way through any cinema showing A Minecraft Movie. For those of you who are blissfully unaware, this trend sees cinemas erupt in chaotic celebration when Jack Black, who plays Steve, utters the words “chicken jockey” towards the end of the film. While it seems like a nuisance…
Just listen to that short clip above. Go on, I’ll wait. That, my friends, is the sound that began some of my early computing experiences, when this hardware writer was a mere whelp dipping his toes into the wonderful world of personal computing. Whaddaya mean you don’t recognise it? It’s the Windows 95 start-up sound,…
As you’d expect from a new update, Marvel Rivals Season 2 brings tons of events you can complete for all sorts of free goodies. In fact, it’s better than ever, as there are two events giving away great skins right now. While the Wanda’s Chaos Gown event simply asks you to play some matches, the…
