When the developers of Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora called its unobtanium graphics preset “extremely difficult to run on currently available hardware”, I could only see that as a challenge. But not so much a challenge for me, for my poor test bench’s AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX. I have the goods—a test bench with a…
The renowned first-person shooter series comes tearing back to PlayStation this week with Battlefield Hardline, which launches on PS4 and PS3. Inspired by modern-day TV crime dramas, Hardline puts players in the role of Nick Mendoza, a Miami police detective that’s hell-bent on taking a former partner down. Hardline also features a robust multiplayer suite,…
But wait, there’s more! 44 years after its release, you’d think that the speedrunning community would have pushed the Donkey Kong arcade game to its limit. But, as it turns out, there are a handful of extra levels hidden behind the game’s long-assumed unbeatable kill screen. All you’ve got to do is beat it. That’s…
Rule changes Microsoft has put the word out to developers that ad injection software that uses any of a variety of man-in-the-middle (MiTM) techniques — injection by proxy, changing DNS settings, network layer manipulation, and so forth — will run afoul of its updated adware rules. “We’re updating our Adware objective criteria to require that…

And you can do so alone or with the help of friends via GameChat and…

As with every gacha out there, the banners (or Convenes) in Wuthering Waves are constantly changing, so it’s a good idea to keep track of what the current banners and next banners are. Wuthering Waves is a little more confusing than other popular gachas when it comes to currency conversions, thanks to its two additional…
Gotta alphabetise ‘em all. Ever since The Pokémon Company uttered the name Pokémon Legends: Z-A, one idea has obsessively swirled around my mind: I needed to declare my favourite Pokémon for each letter in the alphabet, in reverse alphabetical order. Anyone else? Just me? And why? I don’t know, because what I thought would be…
I had three passions growing up: games, movies, and really bad movies. I’d come home from school, spend a few hours exploring Final Fantasy VI or slicing through Knights of the Round, head out with some friends to see The Rock or Independence Day, and then come home and nod off to a Mystery Science…
