Our Jacob Fox guessed that someone would figure out how to get a gaming mouse with a solid shell down to under 25 grams at some point this year. That still hasn’t happened, but he is nevertheless excited to point out this mouse from G-Wolves that comes pretty darn close, thus proving him almost correct….
Every now and then, someone brings up the haunting spectre of an AI-focused Windows 12. While recent rumours about the fabled, unicorn-like OS have since been debunked, it’s not difficult to imagine an operating system that may one day be developed by AI, and all the horrors that might entail. Or indeed, you could just…
Puzzling out the Dam Battlegrounds key locations in Arc Raiders is a big part of learning the map. While it’s exciting to find a keycard when you’re out looting, you then have to work out where to actually use it on the map, as well as if it’s worth your time. Uncommon rarity keycards, for…
Mouse: P.I. For Hire‘s rubber hose cartoon art style brings it a whole lot of absurd, slapstick humor, which pairs perfectly with its “boomer” shooter gameplay. But underpinning it all is a noir detective story that can be dark and adult as well as goofy and comedic, giving Mouse a fascinating depth that goes beyond…
Take a look. Nintendo has discounted several Super Mario titles as part of its upcoming MAR10 Day celebrations (March 10th… Mar 10…. MAR10, get it?). Granted, the selection is hardly exhaustive and we’ve been treated to what seems to be the usual discount percentage with these game, but given how infrequently first-party games go on…

In other words, it’s hard to find a second to actually hunt…
Completing the Survival Directive contract comes immediately after you finish Introducing: NuCaloric and unlock the foodie faction in Marathon. This is the first contract that you actually do for them and it’ll give you a decent chunk of faction rep so you can start unlocking some of their best upgrades—I recommend the ones that give…
Marathon has a handful of different events that can spawn across the map, each with a unique objective for you to complete. Most are pretty straightforward, often boiling down to shooting some UESC. The same can’t be said for Tox Clear gas rooms. As the name suggests, Tox Clear events are basically just a loot…
Working out how to expand your vault in Marathon will help you hold onto more weapons, backpacks, and implants for your Runner. Staying stocked is not only useful in terms of exchanging resources for items in the armory, but it’ll also give you a nice little cushion of gear in case you die on a…
Marathon isn’t exactly fluent at explaining its many systems and mechanics. One such hurdle you’ll soon run into when completing some early quests is DCONs, which you’ll need to find and interact with before being formally introduced to them—often while racing the clock. Knowing the DCON locations ahead of time can save you a lot…
