There are few things as exciting as the prospect of a new MMO. And when that new MMO is from ArenaNet, the studio that’s been focused on Guild Wars for more than two decades, the excitement is even greater. Having seen Guild Wars 3 in action at Gamescom, and spoken to game director Colin Johanson…
Have you heard the good and noble word of our Leader? I’d be happy to tell you all about him if you happen to have a few minutes. Or hours. Days? The rest of your life? Honestly, it’ll be fun. Why don’t you put on these robes and JOIN US in our little sandbox of…
It’s like seeing an old friend: the clanking in the vents over your head, the way the ribbed tail passes over objects with a thunk-ka-thunk-ka-thunk-ka-thunk, the head-within-a-head, the screaming.

Enter Acer’s latest Project DualPlay creation: a handheld gaming PC with a flippable screen that can turn into a laptop. The Project DualPlay Mini was shown off on-stage at IFA 2026,…
Picture this: I am emerging from a pile of paper, red string, and thumbtacks, hair (I have hair in this scenario) dishevelled, breathless, yelling like I’ve well and truly lost it: I knew it! I knew we were getting a crossbow in Final Fantasy 14! I am then carted away by people in white coats…
