Power supply manufacturer Super Flower has launched a new accessory that sits between a graphics card and its power cable to ensure neither ends up a hot, expensive mess as too many Nvidia cards seem to be. It’s called the VGA 12+4 pin OCP Dongle. It’s a big lump of plastic and ARGB LEDs that…
Shrek 2 Remastered is coming out in November, it has been announced. I wasn’t aware there was a Shrek 2 game for PS2, the OG Xbox, GameCube and PC, probably because in 2004 I was too busy thinking about all the other games coming out. You know, stuff like Half-Life 2, World of Warcraft, Halo…
European game rating agency PEGI has begun increasing its age ratings for games that contain “paid random items,” a process that’s seeing games initially rated as low as PEGI 3—suitable for all age groups—bounced directly to PEGI 16. Word of the change came from Connor Hindle, policy manager of the UK’s Games Rating Authority. “Since…
Moonlighter and Cataclismo studio Digital Sun Games announced yesterday that it had canceled plans to release a wide public playtest of its forthcoming “tower defensevania” roguelike ReVamp. The reason? The rollout of a more powerful AI model in Anthropic’s Claude Opus 5.5 has led to a surge in hastily turned around clones and decompiles, resulting…
Hell Clock, one of my favorite indie roguelike action RPGs in the last few years, found a way to take the appeal of limited-time Diablo seasons and make them permanent—no FOMO involved. Its “Journeys” work much like Diablo and Path of Exile’s seasons/leagues by transforming a normal run through the game with new toys to…
Things seem to have gone from bad to worse for Don’t Nod, the developer of the first two Life is Strange games as well as Jusant, Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden, Lost Records, and Aphelion. A month after saying it might not have enough cash to get through January 2027 and that up to 90…
Capcom now makes the majority of its money on PC and “expects this ratio to continue increasing,” it said in a report earlier this year—a shift that’s been in the works ever since 2018’s release of Monster Hunter: World sold approximately three trillion copies. These days Capcom releases a healthy mix of new big budget…
Christofer Sundberg, the founder of Samson developer Liquid Swords, has confirmed the studio’s closure, saying that while the console version of the game enjoyed “much greater success” than the PC release, it “wasn’t enough to get the company across the finish line.” Reports over the weekend revealed that Liquid Swords had gone bankrupt just six…
Heads up, Helldivers: Arrowhead Game Studios is moving Helldivers 2 from GameGuard to Easy Anti-Cheat today, and that means some mods—including those that don’t have any impact on gameplay—may stop working. Helldivers 2 doesn’t have official modding support, but there are plenty of them out there—most either cosmetic or audio replacements. Arrowhead said in a…
Fields of Aaru Release date: TBAI wasn’t keen on the visual style of this ancient Egyptian afterlife farm sim based on its trailers but the low framerate animation and the soft, cohesive environment lighting actually really charmed me once I was hands-on with the demo. The characters have a lot of personality right off the…
