Marathon is running another experimental playlist ahead of its next balancing patch. Following successful tests of a duos mode that Bungie plans to make a “real feature” in Season 2, the next playlist introduces what game director Joe Ziegler calls a “free kit frenzy.” “For our next experiment, starting Wednesday, 4/15 at 10 am PT,…
A 91-year-old woman who missed her daily check-in call got a surprise visit from police—and then police got a surprise of their own when they entered her home to discover that she hadn’t fallen and was unable to get up, but was in fact just engrossed in videogames. The happy-ending story comes to us from…
Last month, a Steam listing emerged for Pickmon, an upcoming creature-collecting survival game that gained immediate attention through the Olympian ballsiness of its visual knockoffery. Pickmon’s trailers and marketing imagery featured designs with near-identical similarity to characters, creatures, and objects from Pokémon, Final Fantasy, Zelda, Overwatch, and even Palworld—which, infamously, had sparked its own controversy…
The long-awaited Fable reboot is currently slated to drop in the fall of 2026, more than 15 years after the release of Fable 3. It’s a pretty big deal for Microsoft and developer Playground Games. Also coming in the fall of 2026 is Grand Theft Auto 6, the biggest deal of them all, which is…
Resident Evil: Requiem is my favourite Capcom game in years, and one reason for that is it gets genuinely scary at times.

Natalie Vock, a Linux developer for Valve, has recently taken to their GitHub with a simple fix allowing rigs with less VRAM to run games better. Turns out applications in Linux will hog all the resources they can get, though if you have an Arch-based distro with an 8 GB card, things are about to…
The Minisforum Atomman G1 Pro has sat on my desk now for about two weeks. Happily bimbling away, running benchmarks, stress tests, and going through all manner of arduous rigamarole that we require these mini gaming PCs to endure in our pursuit of testing excellence, (write that down, it’ll be in the company call later)….
If there’s one thing that’s been consistent about Linux, it’s that when there’s a new release of the kernel, it’s done without fanfare or fuss. The same is true about the version system used: We’re up to version 7.0 now, but that doesn’t mean it’s a whole new thing, just an update of the last…
Task Manager is a piece of software you almost only have to open up when something is going wrong, and its creator, Dave Plummer, knows this well. As detailed in their latest YouTube Video, “If the system feels sick, if an app is hung, if the machine is gasping, Task Manager does not get to…
