Fun fact: The “Obscur” in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a reference to how obscure all of the game’s menus and systems are. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 casts you as a group of magical Instagram influencers, fronted by British Daredevil, on a mission to let everyone in the world grow old enough to get gray hairs. It’s a turn-based RPG, but it also has real-time parries inspired by Soulslikes, and...

The relatively niche subgenre of Black vampire films was popularized by Blacula in 1972, and to date only has a handful of entries — all of which are much less well known among the general public. To celebrate the release of Ryan Coogler’s new box-office hit Sinners, as well as to see what it adds to this particular collection of monster movies, we’ll run through some lesser-known vampire films that feature...
There’s way too much going on in Until Dawn. Director David F. Sandberg tried to make a faithful-ish adaptation of the popular 2015 video game, a Groundhog Day-style repeating-day movie, a comedy, a drama with something to say about trauma, and a love letter to every horror subgenre ever, all at the same time. But the byproduct of all this ambition is a movie that never quite finds an identity,...

Play Video Unfinished Business starts with a group of mercenaries tearing into the Metro West precinct, leaving after stealing components from RoboCop’s medical chair and making off for OCP’s latest project,...
I was convinced Oblivion Remastered would satisfy my childhood nostalgia when, in the middle of its official reveal, Todd Howard declared with a slight grimace that the devs had made sure to preserve its "charm." That is to say, those baffling bits of jank and strange NPC behaviours that still make the original one of the funniest games ever made.But even I'm pleasantly surprised by just how much jank Virtuos...

Yesterday, we reported on Intel's new BIOS feature for Core Ultra 200S motherboards, called 200S Boost, whereby the simple click of a BIOS option will overclock certain parts of the Arrow Lake processor. It's mostly just lifts the die-to-die (D2D) and uncore (NGU) clocks from their default 2.1 GHz values to a hefty 3.2 GHz apiece.But having now tested 200S Boost in a handful of games, I suspect that there's...

Different Zelda amiibo go in and out of production throughout the year, making some harder to find in stock (and at a reasonable price) than others. These amiibo not only look great, allowing fans to rep their favorite Zelda characters, but also unlock items and rewards in Switch games, including Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom. There are several Zelda amiibo that can change the design of...
