Civilization 7 feels more like a series offshoot than a Civilization 6 sequel, taking the venerated grand strategy series in a different direction from the past two games. Its most radical ideas certainly offer an interesting way to play Civilization, though as things stand it doesn’t feel like the best way to play. It’s the…
The newly released PC port of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 hasn’t enjoyed the smoothest of launches, thanks to bugs and performance problems. And now it seems that one aspect of the conversion that is making things worse is the use of DirectStorage, with the system sucking up all-important GPU resources. Spider-Man 2 was ported by Nixxes…
“History rhymes. It’s not repeating itself. It rhymes.” Warhorse’s global PR manager Tobias Stolz-Zwilling is paraphrasing an aphorism often attributed to Mark Twain—though its origins are actually unknown.

Henry’s second Bohemian misadventure is twice the size of the first, introduces firearms and crossbows, and you can…
You’d be forgiven for thinking that 2024 was a year that Intel would prefer to just forget about. Raptor Lake chips self-destructing, Arrow Lake disappointing, and Pat Gelsinger getting the boot (sorry, retiring) were just some of the low points from last year. However, it wasn’t all gloom and doom as it turns out that…
The RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 are power hungry beasts, but the first report of a melting power connector was actually caused by an RTX 4090, likely due to an improperly seated power cable. Hong Kong media outlet PCM initially reported that its testing of an RTX 5090D and RTX 5080 resulted in melted cables,…
Marvel Rivals Season 1 started off with a pretty serious rank reset that saw everyone go down at least seven levels from where they finished in Season 0. This was to prevent any stagnation and ensure everyone in the higher ranks are active in the game, but even still, the reset spread chaos throughout Season…
In a sentence which may never have been written before and which I will surely be challenged about when I try to get into heaven, the official artbook for Assassin’s Creed Shadows has leaked on a hentai website.
