Apparently jealous of AMD and Intel’s god-awful CPU branding, Samsung has cooked up a doozy for its latest QD-OLED panel tech for PC gaming monitors. We give you Samsung QD-OLED Penta Tandem, a brighter, more durable panel tech with a baffling brand name. Samsung says the new panel is 1.3 times brighter and twice as…
I’m going to tell you two things. The first thing is this: the Jurassic Park Classic Games Collection, a boxset of aged, early-’90s games based on the classic film, will be delisted from Steam and other storefronts after March 31. You might think “Oh! I should go pick those up before that happens.” You might…
How much would you pay for a “luxury” gaming headset, with all the bells and whistles you could think of? Something that sounded great, with excellent battery life, plush earpads, ANC, and maybe even a separate DAC? Whatever the theoretical headset, I’d imagine the figure you just thought of would likely be far above $200,…
If you’re feeling bad about your disposable vape becoming e-waste when you’re done with it, why not turn it into a mini synth? That’s the question asked by Paperbagteam on DIY project site Instructables. On the project page, the team say, “To highlight the salvageable parts, and divert them into Open Source Hardware projects, we…
Longtime Microsoft insider Raymond Chen has returned with another cracking anecdote from the days of Windows 95. His latest blog post concerns the fun freebies packaged alongside the OS to showcase Windows 95’s multimedia capabilities—turns out, Weezer’s Buddy Holly music video presented a tricky rights situation before it was cleared for inclusion. For those not…
A mere week after Warhorse celebrated Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2’s first birthday with some fun statistics, it’s dropped another big one: KCD2 has sold 5 million copies since its release last year. I suspect it’s probably more chuffed with this stat than the ones about players doing several million drunken murders (though that’s worthy of…
A developer has claimed some unknown bad faith actor is flooding its new game with positive Steam reviews—and it’s definitely not the culprit, swear—after players began to notice droves of AI-generated accounts padding the numbers. Starsand Island hasn’t had the easiest week in the run up to its launch on February 11. Despite being a…
One of the most popular D&D settings is Spelljammer, a supplement that turns your sword & sorcery to space-faring swashbuckling. While it’s certainly a tone shift, it’s not an unreasonable one—fantasy adventuring and the idea of a great, unexplored frontier have a lot to do with space. Treasure Planet understood this, as does Pathfinder 2e,…
The Shared Watch event is running for the next couple of weeks in Arc Raiders, but it’s just a lil’ one. Unlike trying to hunt down Candleberries in a blasted snowscape, this new event focuses on killing Arc, which, well, we’ve all been doing since the game first launched. It’s supposed to encourage teamwork and…
Jetpack Cat in Overwatch is the perfect example of ‘sick when I do it’ and ‘a crime against humanity when someone else does it to me’. I’m of course talking about her Lifeline ability, which can airlift allies into enemy backlines, or her ultimate that divebombs some poor soul and then whisks them away, usually…
