I reviewed the world’s first 1,000 Hz monitor just the other day, a refresh rate that would have seemed barely comprehensible a couple of years ago. Now here comes another, this time from AOC. Pretty soon, no doubt, serious esport types won’t get out of bed for less than quad-digit refresh rates. However, I’d argue…
A few weeks ago, I spotted a GitHub project for a DLSS 5 NeuralScreen, a free app that lets you put DLSS 5 on your entire desktop. Over the weeks, it has become easier to use and offers more customisation options. Therefore, I thought it would be best to push this technology to its absolute…
Why no score yet? This in-progress review covers Gears of War: E-Day’s campaign, but there’s still the multiplayer check out, which wasn’t available pre-launch. E-Day is officially out on October 6, but advanced access begins October 1 for those who pre-order the $100 Premium Edition. E-Day will also be available on Game Pass. What’s the…
Embark is bringing forth a monumental effort ahead of Arc Raiders’ anticipated major Frozen Trail update scheduled for next week . The devs have teased a bunch of new features like a temporary PvE mode, loot hotspots that change places, and a chance to build a base Topside, among a huge bevy of new items…
I hate the new mascot for Meta’s Muse AI assistant. The company unveiled the fluffy creature, as well as the Tamagotchi-esque Muse Charm device it will call home, (plus a VR headset that isn’t really a VR headset) during its yearly Meta Connect conference last week. The goal with Muse is to offer an AI…
Almost a decade ago, we published a list of our favourite RTS units. There are some good picks in there. But I want to revisit the topic, and not just by listing some cool tanks. Real-time strategy is competitive. I want to find out what the best unit is, and for that we need a…
Which graphical effect will be crowned the worst in games? We’ve tallied up around 4,000 votes from the first round, and we’ve landed on the four heading into the semis: Vignette Chromatic aberration Motion blur Film grain From these four, only two can head into the final. Even as I write this, I have a…
Final Fantasy 14’s free trial is massive—so massive, in fact, that it’s become a bit of a copy/pasted meme over the years. The sentence “have you heard of the critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy 14” is burned into our brains. And, to be fair, it’s a bloody huge one, currently letting you play for free…
The original Steam Deck went on sale about four and a half years ago. And there hasn’t been any clear indication that a true second-gen handheld from Valve is imminent. Until now, that is. YouTube channel Moore’s Law is Dead has a new video explaining how a rumoured AMD APU known as Gainsborough is likely…
The head honcho of Micron, Sanjay Mehrotra, says that memory may be even harder to come by in the next two years than it is today. Now, a memory company’s CEO is gonna say stuff like that during a historically momentous upturn in its business— anything to the contrary would be bad news for its…
