I love a strange keyboard, or a weird controller (here’s looking at you Victrix Pro BFG), but I’ve discovered I might be a bit more traditional about my gaming mouse preferences, if this DIY fingertip mouse is anything to go on. To be fair, it could be the whole ‘spider-like mouse where you can see…
The ever-spiralling cost of computing components is not exactly news. But the big question is how much longer this will all continue. Unfortunately, a new interview by the BBC with TSMC, the company that manufactures so many of the chips that go into our PCs, suggests there’s plenty more to come. TSMC’s Chief Financial Officer,…
In a downright intriguing turn of events, it looks like real money trading (RMT) gold sellers—whose peddling of gold for actual cash is against World of Warcraft‘s terms of service—have taken to the streets of WoW Classic Anniversary to advertise casino games as a way of raking in cash (thanks, WoWHead).

Bethesda announced The Elder Scrolls 6 in 2018, which was eight long years ago. The gap between Skyrim’s release and that announcement was only seven years. It’s been long enough for Elder Scrolls fans to go a bit feral about it. So when Xbox CCO Matt Booty gave Variety a post-SGF debrief interview, discussing topics…

At the showcase, new Xbox CEO Asha Sharma announced that fans with special…
Last year I told you the creator of your dad’s favorite TV show was writing the Call of Duty movie. I was speaking of Taylor Sheridan, naturally, creator of Yellowstone and its many spinoff series, who is writing the CoD movie that Peter Berg will direct and that Mark Wahlberg will almost certainly star in…
Due to the memory pricing crisis that its own AI ambitions are helping cause, Microsoft does not know how to sell a new Xbox that feels cutting-edge at a price that regular people can afford.
