Back in January, on the cusp of Stadia’s demise, Google released a final firmware update for Stadia controllers that enabled users to turn them into a standard Bluetooth device so they could continue to be used wirelessly. It was a considerate move for sure, but what may have gone largely unnoticed at the time is…
I’m not usually a big crafting-survival game guy but Nightingale has me intrigued, both for its premise—neo-Victorian explorers plunging through portals to investigate dangerous otherworldly realms—and its pedigree: Developer Inflexion Games is headed up by former BioWare general manager Aaryn Flynn, and has a number of other BioWare veterans on staff. After a handful of…

Today CD Projekt served up some good news for Wes: It’s coming in the surprise 2.1 patch that was announced yesterday….
The latest patch of Baldur’s Gate 3 has a lot of quality-of-life updates. It has a lovely little epilogue, a gnarly new honour mode that’s been giving Ted Litchfield spikes in his blood pressure, among many other tune-ups and fixes. And uh, schlong physics.
