Amazon’s Fallout TV show turned out great, and the first season was such a hit that a second was commissioned almost immediately. As is the way with every multi-season series these days, we also got a big tease at the first season’s conclusion: we’re going to New Vegas baby! It didn’t take long for the…
It’s good news and bad news for Blizzard fans. The bad news is that BlizzCon is skipping 2025, making it the second year running the convention hasn’t transpired, and the fifth time since 2020 that BlizzCon had not held a live event.

WoW’s new patch, Undermine(d), opened the gates to its new raid recently. Which means, as is tradition, a race to Mythic world first has begun.

The genre that has spiraled out from the surprise success of Vampire Survivors is one of my favourites to cover—whether I’m mining for gold, hitting people with swordfish, or building weapons out of brains and chimpanzee spines. The genre keeps growing and mutating, becoming ever more diverse and bursting with creative new ideas. It’s been…
A 55 year-old man from Texas has been convicted by a jury of “causing intentional damage to protected computers” owned by his former employer, Eaton Corp, after creating malicious code that sabotaged elements of the company’s network alongside a “kill switch” designed to shut down everything if he were laid off.

Upscaling technologies like Nvidia’s DLSS and AMD’s FSR have rapidly become almost essential for playing modern games at decent frame rates with the eye candy turned on.
