Los Santos Customs I’m modding GTA 5 every day in a quest to either transform it into a PC version of GTA 6 or break it entirely. Come back tomorrow to find out what new horrible thing I’ve done to Rockstar’s baby, or check out what I got up to earlier. In a previous life,…
If you’re like me, you’ve probably become increasingly disheartened almost by the day at just how hard it’s becoming to distinguish real photos from fake, AI-generated ones. It does not bode well for the future. There are plenty of suggested solutions, but I like one I just learnt about in particular, in the form of…
I’ll admit it, I’m normally a bit of a graphics settings snob. 25+ years of PC gaming has conditioned me to think that “Low” is an option to be avoided on everything but the most budget of rigs, or the most demanding of games. But I’ve just finished my early performance and image quality testing…
Over the last two weeks, Capcom dropped a parade of weapon breakdown videos showcasing the new Boost Bracer mechanics coming in the Monster Hunter Wilds: Ascendance expansion. Serving as a sort of on-demand sicko mode, the Boost Bracer lets hunters juice their combat actions with additional speed and impact, and adds some deliciously over-the-top attacks…
Slay the Spire 2 isn’t just one of the most popular new games of 2026, it’s the most popular deckbuilder ever. 574,638 people were playing the game simultaneously at launch, which vaporizes the genre’s record on Steam. It’s the first mainstream-ish deckbuilder, and still the most-played card game on Steam by far (Magic: The Gathering…
Gears of War: E-Day is set to launch on October 6, though there’s early access available before then. In the lead up to launch, The Coalition has posted expanded system requirements for the upcoming bug blast. These include what the game asks of your rig for top performance on the top settings—it’s not easygoing, to…
I’ve spent the past couple of days tinkering with Remedy’s latest supernatural action-a-thon, Control Resonant. I’ve been testing it on my home PC, a fairly powerful (but not outrageous) rig, and I’ve got some good news: when it comes to balancing image quality with performance, I reckon there’s very little reason to stress your own…
In the first minutes of Control Resonant, Dylan Faden—prototypical sadboy, perpetually kicked puppy, and regretful mass murderer (he got better)—is thrust into a metaphysical war when Jesse, his psychokinetic former protagonist sister, wakes him from a seven year coma by stabbing a magical shape into his chest. She promptly disappears, leaving the Federal Bureau of…
If you signed up for a Steam Frame, it’s time to check your inbox for an email from Valve. The company has run its ‘one-time randomisation’ to decide who gets a unit from the first batch and who is left on the waitlist. Once you know where you land, head over to this community reporting…
I’ve been getting stuck into World of Warcraft: Forever‘s beta—though I’m a little less levelled up than I’d like to be. Initially, I just chalked this up to launch-day queue problems, but as it turns out, there’s a little more to it than that. See, I live in the UK, and Blizzard rarely does beta…
