The UK’s Telegraph newspaper is claiming that “spending cuts at OpenAI have hit memory chip prices.” That sounds like potentially good news on several levels. But does it stack up? As we reported, OpenAI shuttered its Sora video-generation tool last week. The AI outfit also cancelled a multi-billion-dollar deal with Oracle to extend the Stargate…
The High-Gain Antenna is a new player project in Arc Raiders, added in the Flashpoint update. Similar to the Trophy Display project, you’ll need to gather a bunch of different items to donate to the High-Gain Antenna project (including some brand-new materials) to construct your own Arc-detecting machine. With Shredders escaping Stella Montis, Assessors revealing…
Fraser Brown, Online Editor (Image credit: Future) Last week: I gushed about Crimson Desert. This week: Oh, will you look at that, I’m doing it again.

It’s even claimed that TSMC has sold out capacity at future fabs that have yet to be built. According to South Korean…
When I tried out the Slay the Spire board game in 2024, I was really impressed by how well it adapted the videogame to the tabletop—and especially its clever addition of a co-op mode (nearly two years before Slay the Spire 2 did it!). I assumed, though, that it was a one-and-done box. The base…
SHAUN PRESCOTT, AUSTRALIAN EDITOR (Image credit: Future) This week: In addition to playing through Super Meat Boy 3D, Shaun is also playing the new game by the creators of Chasm, and something else that’s still a bit secret. Super Meat Boy can take all the credit for rekindling my love for the action platformer. I…
Nothing is more of a tease than dangling an upcoming raid boss in front of players a week early. MMO players thrive when there’s nothing to do but wait for the next patch, so if a boss is just sitting there, they’re going to look for a way to kill it against Blizzard’s wishes. And…
