Slay the Spire 2 has been one of those roguelike time vampires in recent weeks, for me—in between my usual binges of larger games, I tend to vanish into this genre for a bleary-eyed 80 hours because I can simply rinse and repeat, rather than having to worry about long-term narratives or complicated RPG systems….
I was a little late to the air fryer hype. For years, every which way I turned, friends and family implored me to get an air fryer, you won’t regret it. Well, now I have one, and it’s great, but I probably did miss the boat a little because already the industry seems to have…
I love a supercomputer reveal, and this one’s a little different than most. China’s National Supercomputing Center in Shenzhen has announced its LineShine system, a machine that aims to deliver 2 exaflops of performance once it’s fully constructed. That’s an impressive figure, and would make LineShine one of the fastest exascale supercomputers in the world…
While it’s unlikely we’ll ever be seeing a Final Fantasy 14 classic to relive those painful, polygon-plenty 1.0 days, there is one neat thing that Creative Studio 3 does to revitalise some of its older content: Unreal trials. It was introduced as part of the Faux Hollows minigame back in Shadowbringers, and essentially plucks old…
Hearken, fellow gaming mouse nerds. Tighten your suspenders, strap in, and feast your eyes on the glory that is 3D mouse shape comparisons. We’ve been graced by the existence of EloShapes for some time, but previously it only let you visually compare 2D mouse outlines—now we get it in three dimensions. Apart from just being…
Arc Raiders‘ big Riven Tides update has added another four new blueprints to find and collect. Predictably, everyone’s rushing to track them down so they can complete the collection (for now) and get to crafting new tools, especially for those embarking on an Expedition, who’ll have to say goodbye to their newfound knowledge in a…
World of Warcraft is one of those old, dogged titans that’ve been trudging on in the MMO industry for over two decades, now—and even in a genre where the success stories are mostly ancient, that’s some going. In its golden age, WoW was the game that all of its contemporaries were trying to dethrone. And…
It’s that magical time of the month when Valve collates all the various drips and drops of updates it’s put out as Steam client betas, and packages them into a great, honking, 100% official Steam client update. And a Steam Deck client update. Don’t forget that. As you might expect, there’s a good amount of…
Galax has been around for as long as I have—literally, as it was founded in 1994, the same year I was founded—and its Nvidia graphics cards, often under their European KFA2 branding, have often tempted me with their typically budget-oriented price tags. So, I was very saddened to hear, ealier today, that apparently the company…
I can definitely understand the cult following Lenovo ThinkPads have garnered over almost two decades of robust laptops. But as a PC gamer, I am perhaps less convinced by external graphics cards, i.e. eGPUs. Still, I’ve stumbled across a modding project combining the two things that I simply can’t look away from. It turns out…
