PC Gaming
I’m not really a Call of Duty player for the most part. Sure, I’ve played the hits like anyone who enjoys a good shooter, and have fond memories of the first, second, and third, plus the Modern Warfare games and the original Black Ops, but besides those, modern CoD has mostly alienated me. Or at…
Neighbour shot my PC through the wall from r/pcmasterrace It’s not every day you hear about a PC incidentally saving someone’s life. It’s even rarer that you hear about a dog shooting a gun. Somehow, this morning on the PCMR Subreddit, one user shared their own harrowing experience, which is a horrid mix of the…
Vtubers are a phenomenon that has intrigued and perplexed me over the years. Cards on the table, I do enjoy the odd Ironmouse song (I’ve had Cry for Me WA WA WA consistently in my rotation since it dropped), but I’m hardly an expert. The tech often intrigues me more than the personalities—and now that…
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). They are spending money…
It’s rare that I review something that I would actually buy right at this moment in time. Even if it’s a good product that I recommend, it’s usually out of my own budget or just not quite at the top of my PC priority list compared to other upgrades. But with the Alienware AW2525HM, I…
We managed to get hands-on experience with Framework’s new “MacBook Pro for Linux users” just last week, and we were mighty impressed with it. If you, too, were impressed and placed your preorders for its June release, I have some bad news. It’s now going to be released one month later. In an email sent…
Welcome to the future, where there’s always a camera lens within arm’s reach. I’ll park my wider-ranging rant about surveillance culture for the time being and attempt to just focus on the news story that’s most recently made me consider stepping on to the soap box: the facial recognition system that was at one point…
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…
