Conventional wisdom says you need a mountain of Nvidia GPUs at about $50,000 a pop to have a chance of running the latest AI models. But apparently not. EXO Labs (via Indian Defence Review) claims to have got the Llama 2 LLM up and running on a Windows 98 box circa 1997 courtesy of a mere Pentium II processor. Hurrah! The catch? It's running about 20,000 times slower than on...
In 2015 it was announced that Borderlands Online had been canceled, and a bunch of people asked, "What was Borderlands Online anyway?" That's because it was planned to be a China-only MMO set in the Borderlands universe, with the kind of free-to-play model publishers used to see as a good way to "crack the Asian market" but wouldn't bother with in the west. Things have changed, hey?Now, modder and dataminer...

Let me state from the start that I don't like fictional universe crossovers. Whether it's a Magic The Gathering set themed around Doctor Who or riding a Chocobo in Assassin's Creed Origins, if it involves smushing two entirely different universes together, I'm not into it. I feel the same way about melding worlds as I do fusion cuisine: Just because you can smush two independently great things together, very much...
Even though we got the bad news that GTA 6 was delayed until May 2026 (on console, that is, we still have no idea when it might eventually land on PC), at least there was a ray of sunshine to go along with the clouds of disappointment. Rockstar surprise-dropped a new trailer today which gave us a nice long look at the game—and left us with a few questions.Hidden among...
It's not easy to predict the future. You do the best you can with the information on hand, sometimes it works out, and sometimes it doesn't. Case in point: Rockstar co-founder Dan Houser, who said in 2018 that he was thankful the studio wasn't releasing a new Grand Theft Auto game amidst a Donald Trump presidency, because the political climate in the US made it "really unclear what we would...
The Destiny games, with their laser swords, hover bikes, and space wizards, have always been Kind of Star Wars. But Destiny 2 will go Full Unadulterated Star Wars later this year with a new, Lucasfilm-authorized expansion called Renegades. It literally has lightsabers and Darth Vader in it. Destiny developer Bungie revealed the Renegades expansion, which is slated for a Dec. 2 release, on Tuesday during a livestream for the Year...
Rockstar Games dropped the second trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6 today, shedding more light about the game’s characters and story. As fans tried to determine which actors could be voicing which characters, I was hung up on an entirely different but otherwise completely inconsequential detail: Is that the Clevelander?! GTA 6 takes place in Vice City, the Grand Theft Auto facsimile of Miami and the eponymous setting of Grand...
Back in 2022, Bloomberg reported that “Rockstar Games cleaned up its frat-boy culture – and Grand Theft Auto, too.” The changes took shape in different ways, from less crunch to a narrowing of the gender pay gap for workers at the studio, and to the introduction of the game’s first playable female character, a Latina named Lucia. And now, in the second trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6, we’re seeing...
