What do you want from gaming mouse software? If you’re anything like me, your immediate reaction to that question is probably ‘not much.’ But over the years, I’ve noticed that asking for ‘not much’ actually seems to be quite a lot to ask for, judging from over-bloated and over-complicated software that we’re often served up….
Over 19,000 new games were released on Steam last year, almost an unimaginable amount. So it doesn’t really come as a surprise that a few of all the new releases would share some similarities and even possibly the same name. But there’s Piece by Piece and Piece by Piece, two games from indie devs that…
Three Chinese businessmen have been charged by the US government for allegedly diverting “high-performance computer servers assembled in the United States and integrating sophisticated US artificial intelligence technology to China.” The three are Yih-Shyan “Wally” Liaw, co-founder of Supermicro; Ruei-Tsang “Steven” Chang, a Supermicro sales manager in Taiwan; and Ting-Wei “Willy” Sun, a contractor of…
Space Marine 2 has achieved a surprising amount of longevity for what you’d have imagined was a one-and-done campaign with tacked-on multiplayer and co-op modes.

Marvel Rivals brings a ton of new systems and heroes to the table. But what I’m interested in the most are the individual hero balance changes and the tweaks to the competitive placement match system. Players have been crying out for some serious nerfs and overall balance changes in Marvel Rivals for quite some time…
Usually, when your graphics card doesn’t appear in the system specs for a game, that doesn’t necessarily mean it can’t run it. When no Intel GPU appeared in the Crimson Desert system requirements, one might pick up the game anyway and just risk an unoptimised gaming experience. If you’re among the unlucky few with an…
SteamOS is what keeps the Steam Deck and Lenovo Legion Go S as some of the best handheld gaming PCs, despite the former’s outdated hardware. Valve’s own operating system is also set to power the forthcoming Steam Machine. Though it’s a Linux-based OS in its own right, with its own updates, and a big one…
Crimson Desert has finally arrived and, upon contact with the gaming public writ large, appears to be a mixed bag—we gave it an 80 in our Crimson Desert review, with our own Mollie Taylor dubbing it both “a game for the sickos” and “full of archaic design choices that only make sense when you remember…
