World of Warcraft‘s player housing system is pretty much great—it offers an absurd amount of freedom, the decor limits just keep going up as Blizzard explores new ways to increase it, and while it sure has taken it a while, the developer seems to’ve learned (from two decades of other MMORPGs trying, failing, and flying)…
Oh boy. Given that fans were expecting (or perhaps hoping, to be more accurate) to see DS games added to Switch Online, the upcoming inclusion of Virtual Boy on 17th February 2026 is quite possibly the biggest surprise from Nintendo in recent years. Did anyone really ask for this? Probably not. Is it pretty neat…
Adds “12 new engines” & support for almost 200 titles. A brand new update was released for ScummVM at the end of last month, adding support for 12 new game engines and nearly 200 PC titles. While ScummVM originally started (as its name suggests) as a convenient way to play classic LucasArts adventure games created…
Not everyone is happy with the introduction of AI into… well, everything they use on a daily basis, and it appears Mozilla has been listening. After considerable backlash towards its announcement that Firefox would become an ‘AI browser’ over the next few years, it looks to have changed its tune in recent weeks. Beyond the…
Excitement, hack-tivate. I have to be honest, I really didn’t expect to love Pragmata as much as I do. Early trailers were certainly intriguing, but from a gameplay standpoint, I thought it looked bland and uninspiring. Maybe Capcom’s uncharacteristically lengthy development for the game played a part (it was originally revealed in 2020), but it’s…
Ars Technica is reporting that’s it essentially game over for 8K display technology. LG is apparently no longer making 8K TV panels and membership of the 8K Association industry body is “dwindling”. So, is 8K basically dead as a display format and does that include the PC? Ars Technica’s reporting focusses, inevitably, on TVs. But…
Lacking attraction. When Super Mario Bros. Wonder launched in 2023, I felt an overwhelming sense of relief. Finally, after a deluge of perfectly serviceable yet uninspiring ‘New’ entries, it felt like 2D Mario had gotten its mojo back. Fast-forward to 2026 and Wonder is making its grand return with a Nintendo Switch 2 Edition on…

Logitech has just announced a new gaming headset, the G325 Lightspeed Wireless, and coming with a new design that it’s hoping will convince you to wear it outside of the house. Featuring a beamforming microphone, the G325 ditches the usual boom arm we’re used to seeing on gaming headsets. It uses a microphone built into…
‘F-22: Air Dominance Fighter’ is being rereleased this month. It’s been a while since it was announced that the Robocop 3, TFX, and Wargasm studio Digital Image Design would be coming back from the dead, with very little information having been shared about what the studio’s plans are, besides the odd tease of a new…
