September 30, 2016 was a big day for Amazon Game Studios: It was on that day, at TwitchCon, it unveiled Breakaway, Crucible, and New World, signalling a major push into the realm of big-budget game development. Not quite a decade later, we find ourselves standing amidst the rubble of that once-great ambition, with a single…
If there’s one thing last week’s big AWS outage should have taught us, it’s that putting all our eggs into one giant tech basket may not be a great idea. And in case we didn’t adequately take that lesson to heart, here’s another opportunity: Just hours before Microsoft is set to deliver its quarterly financial…

The Matrix was released in June 1999 and had quickly become a smash hit, with this meeting apparently taking place in the…
The Outer Worlds 2‘s senior narrative designer, Joe Fielder, has worn a lot of hats in his 20 plus years in the industry. “I’ve been a level designer, I’ve been a puzzle designer, I’ve been a producer and a director,” he tells us. “Sometimes, in the games industry, you take on the job that’s offered…
AI represents many things to many people. To some, a way to tackle menial work. To others, a tool for usurping artists and laying off workers. To Nvidia, it represents a significant portion of its $5 trillion valuation. To Senator Bernie Sanders, a meteor metaphor. Say that three times fast. In a recent conversation with…
As I type these very words, Nvidia’s market capitalisation is ticking along at $5.12 trillion. Yup, Nvidia has become the world’s first $5 trillion company. Truly, these numbers are getting silly. Of course, it really, really (really!) wasn’t all that long ago we reported on Nvidia becoming the world’s most valuable company at $3.3 trillion….
Light some fireworks and crack open a bottle of champagne—Dragon Quest 1 and 2 have been reborn in respectfully remastered forms on Steam.
