In a note to developers, Itch.io founder Leaf Corcoran has confirmed that free adult content will be re-indexed on the platform, alongside a new content warning system. It follows the wholesale de-indexing of adult content on the indie game marketplace due to pressure applied by an anti-pornography lobby group on major credit card processors. Since…
I wasn’t excited about the Battlefield 6 announcement because I didn’t think my aging PC would run it well. But that’s not the case at all: the Battlefield 6 minimum requirements are definitely manageable, and even the recommended specs aren’t too crazy. If you’re rocking the six-year-old RTX 2060 with an i5-8400, and have at…
The essential core of the democratic process is voting. A free, fair vote is not just essential, it is sacrosanct: Without it, everything else collapses like a house of cards.

EA’s veil of secrecy is so impractical at this point that, during a Battlefield 6 multiplayer reveal…

The unprecedented decision to support two opposing rulesets at once begged a question: Come launch, which format…
Live on stage from a Los Angeles warehouse on Wednesday, EA kicked off its Battlefield 6 multiplayer presentation with a crowd pleaser: Portal is back, and it’s way more powerful. The custom games toolset that debuted in Battlefield 2042 has undergone some serious upgrades that sure make it seem like a proper, Halo Forge-style mode….
