Honestly, I’d kind of been assuming I was the only person left who actually remembered Grasshopper’s surreal 2016 roguelike Let It Die, let alone its incredibly short-lived 2022 multiplayer spin-off Deathverse. But apparently somewhere along the way someone with money to burn decided it’s a franchise, and publisher GungHo has just announced we’re getting a…

It’s still unmatched as an MMORPG, and I desperately…

Intel’s 13th and 14th Gen chips will reportedly see a 10% price hike soon, partly in response to ‘the lackluster performance of AI PCs’

If you’ve bought a gaming PC, or even thought about buying a gaming PC in the last year or so, there’s a good chance you’ve seen them labelled as AI PCs. Turns out the desire for AI is lower than we might have thought, if recent Intel reports prove true. According to Digitimes (machine translated),…
