The new Steam Controller launched on May 4 and promptly sold out in about 30 minutes, bringing Steam to its knees in the process. There’s already a lot to like about Valve’s funky fresh gamepad, as our Jacob’s Steam Controller review can attest, but the company is now offering what is no doubt the cherry…
Adding Crude Gold Bars to Crimson Desert is one way that Pearl Abyss is trying to make the game’s treasure a bit more exciting. Before, you’d often find a hoard of glittering gold bars, coins, and trinkets, but none of it was actually treasure, just part of the set dressing. Sure, you could find proper…
The legal fight between OpenAI co-founders Elon Musk and Sam Altman has seen much internal documentation from the firm’s earliest years released to the public. One minor revelation has been the serious involvement of Gabe Newell from the start, who gave the company over $20 million and was the sole member of its “informal advisory…
Canonical, the company behind Ubuntu, has confirmed that services are back up and running following a major DDoS attack that left some of its infrastructure, including websites and repos, unavailable for five days. DDoS, or Distributed Denial of Service, attacks are intended to disrupt the everyday operation of servers and networks. They’re often quite effective,…
I’ve always been an advocate of keeping your personal data as private as you can to stave off the creeping hand of digital tyranny, but for gaming? Nah, no chance. I’m a (wannabe) competitive gamer and I need my latency as low as possible, and VPNs are a no-go. At least, that’s what I thought…
What makes The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind one of the greatest games of all time? Is it the complex imperial politics of its setting? The piquant mythopoeia? Fargoth? It’s none of these. It’s the fact it’s a right ballache to actually play. I… kid? Sort of? I’ll admit it: Morrowboomers can lean a little too…
We’re all pretty aware that crypto probably isn’t, erm, what you’d call a safe investment for the future. Especially since, as of earlier this year, it’s apparently in a “collateral death spiral”. Which doesn’t sound great. But if you made a different bet—say, by purchasing Old School RuneScape bonds, converting them into gp, and then…
AMD reports it made $10.3 billion in revenue during the first quarter of 2026. While revenue growth has been more or less flat quarter-on-quarter, this figure otherwise represents a growth of 38% compared to the same period in 2025. By all accounts, AMD is continuing to dine well on the demand for “high-performance CPUs and…
I love Atlus’ JRPGs but most of the time, faced with the prospect of actually playing them, I flake out. I loved Persona 3 Reload and Metaphor ReFantazio, and Persona 5 is a modern classic for good reason, but in my opinion none can hold a candle to Shin Megami Tensei 5: Vengeance. Why? Because…
Considering the months of turmoil surrounding the development of Subnautica 2, it’s not just exciting that the undersea survival game is finally launching into early access next week on May 14—it’s a minor miracle. But while the legal battle between publisher Krafton and the founders of developer Unknown Worlds was incredibly loud and extremely public,…
