Great news: if you were gearing up to deliver a searing oration against something Fallout: New Vegas, Pillars of Eternity, and Pentiment director Josh Sawyer said a decade ago, he’d like to hear it too. In a recent chat with the Human Can Opener Podcast, the RPG vet discussed the ways that game developers all…
Grand Theft Auto 6 pre-orders went live last week. To some it was a moment of joy, finally after all these years we find ourselves a step closer to the videogame that has been promised to end all other videogames. But for others the one look at the price tag was enough to reality check…
When it comes to making bank off the currently insatiable demand for AI hardware, the companies with the biggest, ear-to-ear grins are those that make the processors, memory, and storage chips for such systems. In the case of the latter two, it’s been so highly profitable that they have collectively agreed to substantially fund a…
Baldur’s Gate 3 might be the greatest D&D videogame out there, but Planescape: Torment—with its potent mix of exceptional writing and fever-dream setting—is a close second. And we almost got a sequel, Planescape: Unraveled, but nobody had the courage to fund it. Unsurprisingly, Beamdog—which has become something of a custodian for BioWare and Black Isle’s…
Listen, I do love the vibrant colours and deep blacks of my OLED. What I don’t love is the price tag (though, in the grand scheme of RAMpocalypse knock-on effects, the cost of gaming monitors has remained relatively stable). As such, I’m always intrigued by more affordable low-fi tech options, like epaper displays. It’s just…
I confess, even after several years writing about videogames for money, I still have to pause sometimes and remember which CD Projekt is which. I use this handy mnemonic rhyme: If CD Projekt Red you see, that’s the folks who made The Witcher 3. If CD Projekt alone you view, that’s the parent company. Doo…
Sony had a rough track record last year. As one of our contributors Rick Lane pointed out, the company had cancelled eight out of 12 live service games that were originally planned for 2025, including the trainwreck that was Concord—fast-forward to 2026, and it’s called curtains on Destiny 2, a game just years prior I…
Back when the GTA Trilogy trainwreck happened, Dominic Tarason wrote a piece for us making the case that old games shouldn’t be delisted when they’re rereleased. It hasn’t stopped happening, of course, and most recently Dead or Alive 6 was removed from sale in favor of Dead or Alive 6 Last Round, a rerelease so…
The memory apocalypse has already hit prices of RAM and SSDs as AI data centres buy up all the available stock, and it’s only going to get worse according to Jefferies Equity Research. As reported by Wccftech, memory prices are likely to go up between 40 and 50% in the third quarter of 2026, and…
Even if building a gaming PC is prohibitively expensive for most people in 2026, software continues to be cheap and abundant. Valve launched its Steam Summer sale last week and all the normal things happened: Red Dead Redemption 2 got a 75% discount for the 14th time since January 2025. The Witcher 3 got its…
