Poor Intel. Last year was pretty rough for the 55-year-old semiconductor firm, as it accrued just $54.2 billion in revenue, 14% less than the year before. After paying all its bills for manufacturing, research and development, and biscuits, there was just $1.7 billion left over in net income. Poor Intel. So when the US administration…
Dragon’s Dogma 2 is scheduled to swoop down onto Steam in just over a month, wreaking fiery havoc upon fantasy fans’ free time. But you may be able to get a taste of Capcom’s RPG sequel sooner than that, as recent changes to the game on Steam, as registered by SteamDB, hint that a demo…
I was planning an indulgent weekend shackled to my PC eradicating alien bugs and robots in Helldivers 2. Instead I was forced to do boring things like going outside and spending time with my annoying dog. A travesty. Helldivers 2 continues to suffer for its success, which wasn’t entirely unexpected.

The second season of WoW classic’s Season of Discovery (SoD) is live—and the layers are acting up again, this time in Stranglethorn Vale (STV). For the uninitiated, this season brings Blood Moons to STV: 30-minute PvP brawls that tick around every three hours. The main issue? The bouncers at the door aren’t great at their…
We all love a good architecture or two in the PCG hardware office and we especially like AMD’s current Zen 4 and 4c designs. They’re super efficient, clock really high, and their performance in games is spot on. So a report that the chip giant’s next generation of designs will be hitting mass production toward…
Today, games are at a point where the realism of the on-screen racing experience is almost indistinguishable from the real thing; the gleam of a Lamborghini Countach’s chassis, the ray-traced reflections of car headlights on the rain-sprinkled tarmac, the delicious blur of your surroundings as you press to the head of the pack in a…
You’re likely looking to kill Devastators in Helldivers 2 so you can complete your daily Personal Order and get a hefty dose of Medals to spend on your Warbond. The problem is, Helldivers doesn’t really tell you enemy names—unless you get murdered by them that is. Similar to Scout Striders and Chargers in previous Personal…
Nightingale, the latest hit in the sea of co-op survival games, has been running into a number of problems in its recent server stress test.
