MSI might not be the first name you think of when it comes to gaming mice, but the brand has been quietly toiling away with its peripherals in recent times and has come up with the Versa 300 Wireless 8K as its latest entry. On the face of it, with a 26,000 DPI sensor, 8000…
During the recent Xbox Games Showcase, Xbox CEO Asha Sharma said, “It’s only fitting that as we return to Xbox, we return to Gears.” With that, Gears of War: E-Day was revealed, and with it plenty of excitement for an early-days take on the war with the Locust. It’s an Xbox exclusive, but that just…
I’m very intrigued by the MSI Claw 8 EX AI+. For one, I enjoyed my time with the previous iteration, the MSI Claw 8 AI+ A2VM. For a second, it’s got Intel’s new Arc G3 Extreme processor nestled inside. And for a third, our Dave got his hands on one at Computex, and said it…
Almost exactly two years ago, EA CEO Andrew Wilson was asked in an earnings call about sticking ads in games. His response was, obviously, a yes: “We have teams internally in the company right now looking at how we do very thoughtful implementations inside of our game experiences.” As inevitable as the passage of time,…
I rather enjoyed the first Final Fantasy 7 remake—I sank a comfy 35 hours into it, plodded along its story, and had a grand old time. I never got around to Rebirth, though. Partially because I just didn’t have the time, but also because I didn’t want another fully-priced AAA game taking a chunk out…
Dead by Daylight recently celebrated its 10 year anniversary with a day-long fan event with panels, meet-and-greets, and crucially, a bunch of new announcements as Behaviour Interactive looks to the next 10 years of development. First off, the headlining news was a recap of Dead by Daylight’s upcoming Chapter and collabs, including the highly sought…
If you check in with Steam’s player population data as much as I do, then you’ll know it’s pretty common to see an idle game towards the top. Bongo Cat has been sitting up there for basically a year. Banana holds the title of tenth-highest all-time concurrent player peak on Steam. Out with the old,…
Dragon’s Dogma 2 is a great bit of fun—a chaotic, sometimes overtly cruel action RPG with a great sense of physical humour and some really tactile combat. It also got absolutely hazed during its launch period back in 2024 thanks to some utterly baffling microtransactions. As I personally covered back then, the entire thing was…
Many of the complaints about Solasta 2 when it launched in early access were about the CRPG’s character creator. While its results were better than the first game’s freakish plasticine faces, it was hard to make a full party who looked and sounded meaningfully distinct. The latest update has given character creation a significant upgrade….
Raphaël Colantonio, co-creative director of Dishonored, has been streaming a playthrough where he’s joined by different members of the team at Arkane who worked on whichever level he’s currently replaying. It’s been interesting, and has resulted in the unearthing of titbits like Arkane being tapped to make Thief 4 and Blade Runner before they ended…
