The Lies of P Puppet of the Future boss is that giant robot you can spot patrolling a trench of poisonous water towards the centre of Venigni Works, and it’s understandable if you find the towering iron puppet a little daunting—I certainly did. The good news is that the boss itself is actually quite easy,…
In the lead-up to Diablo 4’s first season back in July, the game received a patch that was universally unpopular. That feels like an understatement—the community revolt was fierce enough to cause an honest-to-Lilith emergency broadcast where the devs stated: “we don’t plan on doing a patch like this ever again”. Far from repeating the…
Google’s streaming dream died in January this year: the Google Stadia streaming service joined a laundry list of projects the company has canned over the years. Google could open a Ben & Jerry’s-style flavor graveyard for them all. We know the streaming platform struggled with market share since its release in 2019, and I never…
There’s no shortage of Lovecraft-themed tabletop RPGs these days, but for my money Trail of Cthulhu stands out from the pack. As I recommended in our list of alternatives to D&D, it combines a classic and exhaustively researched take on the Mythos setting with innovative mechanics designed to make running spooky mysteries a breeze.

The Lies of P Faded Whistle is a mysterious collectible you pick up at the back of the Scrapped Watchman’s arena in Krat City Hall. Bloodborne players might assume it’s like Father Gascoigne’s music box—an item you can play to give you an advantage in the boss fight itself. But actually, the Faded Whistle is…
There is the suggestion going around that the green team is testing out a chiplet version of its top GeForce graphics card for the future Nvidia Blackwell GPU generation. This comes hot on the heels of another rumour stating explicitly that the Blackwell architecture is going to be used for data center silicon, too, and…
While I’ve never been sold on Mortal Kombat’s theatrical violence and roster design, I’ve gotta say that Mortal Kombat 1 is rather beautiful. Well, on PC at least. It looks pretty damn good on PlayStation and Xbox, too. Nintendo Switch, however? It, uh, looks like a game alright. If games were total and utter nightmare…
Looks like we’re getting another foodie crossover in Final Fantasy 14. Yesterday, the Twitter/X account for KFC Japan posted a short, ominous video of the Colonel overlooking the cliffs of La Noscea with the caption (courtesy of Google translate): “Colonel Sanders is steadily preparing for a new adventure in another world…” Listen, I know Mr….
Why do all spaceships have to be horizontal? Nevermind the practicality or anything like that, I want to explore space in something a little more vertical. A silo, a tower, perhaps. Or maybe even a ship that is just one very, very long ladder a la Snake. As spotted by GamesRadar, one particularly determined Starfield…
Even the smartest of boffins can trip up sometimes, and that’s exactly what happened after a member of Microsoft’s AI research team accidentally exposed 38TB of sensitive internal data after misconfiguring a link. Wiz, a cloud security company that routinely looks for vulnerabilities or exposures of cloud-hosted data detailed the exposure on its blog (via…
