I'm downright curious about Borderlands 4—having played most entrants in the series, it's been interesting to see it mostly capture a good narrative essence with Borderlands 2, then spend the rest of its library uh… not doing that. Which is why this sequel's been intriguing to me, given promises the game'll be cutting back on "toilet humor" and irreverent meme culture.A recent story explainer in Beyond the Borderlands #2 looks...
When I booted up the Marvel Rivals preview build for Season 3 for the first time, I was, of course, dying to try out Phoenix right away. New heroes are always the stars of the show, and that's no different here. However, after hours of hands-on with the anticipated update, including the Season 3 patch notes that bring some much-needed balancing changes, I've actually been appreciating the mundane tweaks much...
Walls. Boring, aren’t they? Hardly anything happens on a wall, in comparison to a gaming monitor. But Valerion’s fixed that, because its range of StreamMaster and VisionMaster projectors can output at up to 300 inches of 4K UHD resolution and super-responsive 240Hz refresh rates at 1080p for butter-smooth gaming. Finally, walls get the QOL update they’ve so desperately needed for centuries.This Prime Day you can bag a real bargain on...
The Amber Mutation was added to Grow a Garden as part of the Prehistoric Update, but rather than relying on weather or the time of day like the other mutations, this one's a little bit harder to get ahold of for your plants. It won't randomly happen, but luckily there are a few ways you can go about getting it for your farm.These ways don't come cheap though. You'll need...
As technology moves forward there will always be laws, frantically running behind them desperate to keep up. The problem is technology moves fast. Really fast. Especially compared to lawmakers. It's why we see countless of uncertain law cases around fields in tech especially when it comes to things like the internet and AI. It's also why the UK is needing to rethink its laws around sabotage when it comes to...
Those pounding footsteps you hear approaching from the distance? That's Giants Software, makers of Farming Simulator 25. They're finally catching up with the rest of us.Ask any virtual farmer what they like to do when they're not planting seeds or harvesting crops, and the answer is inevitably: "fishing." From Stardew Valley to Valheim and everything in between, there's a cardinal rule when it comes to videogames: if you can plant...
After a year of agonizing over passing sales and jealous gazes at better setups, I finally did it. I bought a fancy OLED of my own, and I love it. Specifically, I went with the 34-inch Alienware QD-OLED (AW3423DWF). It's certainly bigger and more than I need (you can find it for $650 on Amazon right now), but the slightly glossy display and color contrast look great. I'm also quite...
Everything feels like it's happening so fast. I've barely had time to blink since our last Winter Sale roundup, and a fresh mountain of interesting and oddball indie games have come, been, and faded from memory already. But I remember, and I'm here to shine a belated spotlight on another set of games from the past year (and a bit) that I believe deserve a second look.This time around, I'll...
Romero Games, whose in-development shooter was cancelled last week in the wake of (but not necessarily as a result of, more on that later) the major layoffs at Microsoft, has issued a statement on social media clarifying that it is not closed down, and that "we are doing everything in our power to ensure that it does not come to that."Romero Games said on July 3 that funding for its...
They say the peak Peak experience is reaching the titular peak, but I'd argue peak Peak is falling from very high up while five to six friends watch helplessly. That feat is usually impossible thanks to Peak's unenlightened four-player limit, but of course, modders found a way.Very quickly, at that. Since the week Peak came out, the most-downloaded Peak mod on Thunderstore (a popular front-end for easily modding Unity games)...
