It was a whirlwind dalliance. I picked up Beyond Good and Evil’s 20th anniversary edition on Friday and finished it—all pearls collected, all animals snapped—by Sunday. I can’t escape the lure of nostalgia: BG&E Cool Original was an important game for me as a kid. I bought it on a whim for my 11th birthday…

I realize it’s poor form of me, but I can’t mind my own business, and I’m about to yuck some of y’all’s yum. Why does every game need a series of mods turning their respective worlds into smooth-faced dystopias? It’s like there’s an unwritten rule somewhere that the first batch of fanmade downloads in every…
For someone who lists tornadoes as one of their biggest fears, I’ve been playing a lot of Funnel Runners lately. It’s a tornado-themed doomsday survival scenario where you and seven friends get tossed around by violent twisters until you eventually repair your van and escape or get engulfed by an EF5. It fills me with…
Most display experts agree that microLED is the ultimate flat panel display tech. There’s just one problem. It’s hella expensive. Could Intel be the surprising solution to that? According to a new report, it might just be part of the solution, at least. According to Taiwanese outlet Economic Daily, Intel is partnering with display specialist…
I’m talking about your default, go-to game that sucks you in for hours and suddenly the day is gone. Mine has got to be Final Fantasy 14, so if you ever desperately need to get in touch with me and don’t know how, I’m probably on a losing streak in FF14’s ranked PvP queue. (Image…
Space Warlord Baby Trading Simulator is my most-played game over the last month, a simple “line go up” game where you buy, sell, and short against the predicted events of an alien baby’s life.

I feel like I’ve spent several lifetimes crouch walking around to be sneaky in videogames. It’s the default way of saying “stealth mode.” Even the mighty Metal Gear series, which originally only had upright running or belly crawling, eventually bent the knee—both of them, in fact. Haven you ever tried crouch walking? Like, in real…
Until now, every OLED gaming monitor we’ve reviewed has been rated at 0.03 ms for pixel response. Well, not any more ladies and germs. Give it up for the new Sony Inzone M10S II, which clocks in at a mere 0.02 ms. Is it a bit of a stretch to think the human eye can…
