We’re all a bit iffy about flying Boeings ever since that plane had its door ripped off, so why not try an alternative? For instance, the gargantuan mechanical dragonflies that dotted the skies above the Butlerian Jihad of 200 BG to 108 BG? Those have so many moving parts that could go horribly wrong that…
We’ve heralded Thrustmaster for gaming input devices over the years, and that means the Eswap X 2 Pro has heaps of expertise from decades of input design backing it up, all baked together with a little novelty to boot. While the bulk of the designs for the best controllers for PC concentrate on durability, comfort,…
Gathering the new Resplendent Sparks resource in Diablo 4 is one way that you can skip the Uber Unique grind—if you’ve already amassed some spare Uber Uniques, that is. Perhaps you went super hard on Duriel when he had his drop rate boost? Either way, you can now get rid of those spare copies in…
Helldivers 2, a solid third-person co-op shooter about blasting bugs, has been doing damn well for itself—too well, in fact, slamming right into the ceiling of Steam’s global top sellers chart like a kid who didn’t expect mentos to mix with coke quite so explosively.

Diablo 4’s newest patch could’ve been Blizzard’s solution to an endgame that mostly consists of grinding a single boss for the best loot, but it doesn’t seem like it went far enough. Among a list of bug fixes, patch 1.3.2 brings two changes aimed at making it easier to get Diablo 4’s most powerful items,…
(Image credit: Blizzard) Can you believe Hearthstone turns ten this year? My bank manager can, because over the course of that decade I could have bought a small car rather than a near-complete card collection, but here we are. This week, Blizzard released a slew of announcements about what to expect from what it has…
The Ur-Quan Masters, an open-source remake of the revered sci-fi exploration-adventure Star Control 2, is coming to Steam next week, free for all and with a slightly different title—Free Stars: The Ur-Quan Masters. The Ur-Quan Masters situation is a bit complicated, but here’s the crash-course version. Star Control 2 was developed by Toys for Bob…
Years of videogames operating like shopping malls made me assume that Helldivers 2‘s day-one monetization would be the same old story: battle passes, boosters, and cosmetics that cost as much as the game itself.
