The cloud-based file storage and synchronization service is far more than a virtual storage container, it’s also a parking spot for several of Google’s other services, such as the…
Metaphor: ReFantazio, the tale of a young outcast’s quest to end racism by clearing dungeon after dungeon of seemingly evil lesser species, is a great RPG and one of the best games of 2024. It’s also like $70, which represents half a year’s savings in games media. Clearly Atlus has become detached from the concerns…
Anyone who is interested in realistic real-time graphics, be it in games or animation, will know that dense vegetation can be very costly on GPU resources.

Last month, YouTuber Major Hardware, otherwise known as James, created “The Fanjattan Project“, a single fan made up of many tiny fans. Now, they’re back with the same basic idea but much, much larger, with a huge fan named the Superdome. And fan maker Noctua even agreed to help out. The idea was to make…

Every month Steam publishes a list of its top releases by revenue, which often includes some surprises. This month Oblivion Remastered, The Last of Us 2, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, and Blue Prince are selling real well, though Steam’s gold-tier top 12 also includes The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy, a game so ambitious it…
“See how much court fines you can stack up against your opponents”. Super Smash Bros. Melee modder Mooshie has added a fake ‘Cease and Desist’ letter to the game, poking fun at Nintendo’s famously litigious nature.
