Artificial superintelligence is, for most of us I think, quite a scary thought. A human-like AI, far more intelligent and capable than any we’ve seen before, developed by companies that often seem unprepared (or uncaring) towards the potential knock-on effects of its deployment. Goody. Still, we’ve been told by industry leaders like Mark Zuckerberg that…

World of Warcraft Legion Remix—the second in Blizzard’s limited-time experiments with old expansions—is trying to fix its oops! All tanks issue by throwing an absurd amount of HP at healers and DPS. And a hefty defensive buff on the side, as a treat. Some context: In “Remix” events, WoW players can make an alt that’s…

One of the best things about DLSS, or any upscaling tech for that matter, is the ability to adjust it to your preference. The image quality difference between Performance and Quality can often be dramatic, as it substantially changes the resolution of the game running underneath. The more pixels for the upscaler to work with,…

OpenAI has launched its new Atlas web browser and with it “a step toward a future where most web use happens through agentic systems.” The broad agentic capabilities of the new browser look as impressive as they do terrifying, including the ability to track and remember everything you do and carry out complex, multi-step tasks…

Working out how to forge the new Festival of Accord: Dreamspell armor will be the main concern for anyone logging in to the new Monster Hunter Wilds Halloween event. Just like previous festivals, there are multiple new sets to grab, but you’ll have to acquire the materials to craft them by completing specific event quests….

The year is 2025, and there’s no better indication that we live in an increasingly meaningless and absurdist hellscape than the fact I read the news “They’re re-releasing a 2006 videogame based on a 1984 movie, but with upscaled graphics, but also they might have just bundled mods into it without anyone’s permission” and thought…

A decade after Bloodlines 2 was pitched to then-new Vampire: The Masquerade owner Paradox Interactive, we’re finally able to sink our fangs into the undead sequel. Unfortunately absence has not made the heart grow fonder, and it’s currently sitting at Mixed reviews on Steam. The consensus among the user reviews, even the positive ones, is…

Will the drama ever end for the 12V-2×6 power connector? GPU meltgate still hasn’t really ended and companies are seemingly hellbent on fumbling the ball when it comes to the connector’s design. And then apparently recommending potentially dangerous ‘fixes’ that, er, don’t even work. At least, that seems to be the case with Cooler Master’s…

You know what I worry about? I worry about the lost artforms of the early internet. Time was, every game guide out there would come prefaced with some lustrous bit of ASCII art—an unfathomably complex picture made up solely of characters on your keyboard. Now it’s gone the way of ancient basket-weaving and the spinning…

The wireless version of the Scuf Valor Pro is finally here, offering everything we loved about the wired version, just minus the wire and all of its tangle potential. That means I’m gonna award this a high score, and we can all go home early, right? Unfortunately, even without a wire, the Scuf Valor Pro…
