Nintendo’s latest Switch 1 title seems to be a hit, perhaps nowhere more so than France, where the game is apparently the best physical launch of 2026 so far. According to French journalist…
I love money so much. I’d marry a banknote if it was socially acceptable, and then I’d cheat on it with coins. But I also love PC games, and oh no! They’re more expensive than ever. And don’t even get me started on console exclusives, that demand you pony up for the hardware too. That’s…
There are some questions in life that are rightly acknowledged as fundamental to our existance as human beings. Who am I? Why are we here? What’s that smell? What are they eating, that looks tasty? And it’s the same with PC gaming, and one of the most important question any PC gamer has to deal…

Capcom’s new sci-fi hit, Pragmata, was released to glowing reviews late last week, and much praise has been heaped on its relatively excellent performance.
