The last time I was a regular Sims player was, well, in the era of The Sims. The first one. Since those ancient days, it’s my understanding that the series—or at least The Sims 4—has turned into a platform for some of the most exotic and enthusiastic sexual experimentation mankind has yet produced, largely thanks…
Plotting something. Yooka-Laylee dev Playtonic Games has been teasing an announcement on social media over the past couple of days, and now a listing for ‘Super Yooka-Laylee Kart’ playtest has appeared via SteamDB (thanks, Gematsu). The listing includes art and a logo, suggesting that the studio’s recent teases (including the couplet “Collecting quills is far…
Processor with “around 3 GHz single-core performance” recommended. Polymega maker Playmaji announced some time ago that it was giving customers the option to shift away from the expensive (and often hard to find) base system and instead digitise their personal retro collections using a new piece of hardware, called the Polymega Remix. After a period…
Next week, Destiny 2 comes to an end. The Monument of Triumph update, releasing on June 9, marks the final release for Bungie’s nine-year-old live-service behemoth.

With the tagline of ‘powered by cute, crafted…
Bricking it. It’s official, folks, LEGO has finally lifted the lid on its new range of Pokémon sets, complete with its fancy new Smart Play tech. This might not be all that surprising to those who have been following the leaks in recent weeks, but hey, an official reveal is always a treat. We also…
The OLED gaming monitor tech announcements are coming thick and fast at Computex this year. One intriguing new monitor has been outed by Asus featuring a new WOLED panel from LG that we’ve not seen before. The big news is that the Asus ROG Swift PG32UCWM features RGB-stripe technology. In other words, the panel’s subpixel…
Keychron’s not really officially at Computex this year, but I did manage to catch up with a couple of its representatives in a corner of the show and got a sneak peek at some of its upcoming and potentially upcoming keyboard goodies. The most striking is the carbon fiber concept keeb—I mean, just look at…
Computex 2026 might house all kinds of fancy GPUs, handhelds, and gold-plated mice, but let’s get down to what we’re all here for, shall we: the humble PC fan. These under-appreciated little spinners do keep our entire gaming PCs—and therefore our entire hobby—churning along as it should, so credit where credit’s due. And there’s now…
It was all about Time Crisis and The House of the Dead. Time Crisis hit me harder overall. This rail shooter takes you through different missions across the series. Each mission typically has three stages, and each stage has four areas you fight through. I have never finished any of the games, but I still…
