A Spanish news broadcast showing DS3 Pontiff footage when talking about the new Pope candidates LMAO ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ from r/fromsoftware I consider myself an expert in the process of electing a new Pope. I am not Catholic, but I did happen to watch the 2024 film Conclave all of a month before the death of Pope Francis on April 21, and see no reason to doubt its complete and total accuracy....
After the unhappy reception for Battlefield 2042, EA went all in on player feedback, methodically addressing complaints and promising that the next Battlefield game will center the opinions of fans from the start, with what EA CEO Andrew Wilson calls "the biggest playtesting initiative in franchise history."Wilson has been talking up Battlefield 6 (or whatever the new game ends up being called) to investors for a while now, and in...
More than a year after Microsoft's $69 billion acquisition of videogame behemoth Activision Blizzard was successfully completed, the US Federal Trade Commission's effort to block it has run aground. A federal appeals court has rejected the FTC's appeal of a ruling that denied its request for a preliminary injunction against the deal, saying the lower court applied the "correct legal standard" and that the FTC has not demonstrated that it...
Hoo, boy. Alright, let's see here. Yesterday, an otherwise unremarkable Tuesday rapidly became confusing for Elden Ring-heads and people looking at particular corners of the internet when Nexus Point News, an entertainment news site, published an article claiming that Annihilation and Civil War director Alex Garland is set to direct an Elden Ring film adaptation for production company A24.Though it probably goes without saying, the story seemed peculiar—and not just...
Stepping back into Oblivion Remastered can feel a bit overwhelming, even for those of us who played the original way back *checks watch* 19 years ago. For those Skyrim fans who stepped into the game expecting something similar, I'm sorry to tell you that Oblivion is a different beast entirely.Whether it's trying to overcome the game's inscrutable persuasion or lockpick minigames, or working out how the hell you became a...
'The Epic Games Store launcher sucks less than it used to' is not very high praise but it's about as far as I'm willing to go. It has improved, undeniably, but it's still painfully slow, awkward, and just not pleasant to use—not to the point that I refuse to use it, but if I have a choice between Steam and Epic, all else being equal I'm going with Steam.

Prologue: Go Wayback! is an upcoming survival game made by PlayerUnknown Productions, the devs behind PUBG. It's pretty hard going, with an unforgiving environment and survival mechanics like hunger, thirst, and temperature all constantly on your back, making it harder to cross the rocky and confusing terrain.But its difficulty isn't actually the main appeal of Prologue; it's probably the fact that its map, which is randomly generated, is going to...
If you want to acquire New Land Beyond in Destiny 2, it's important to preface one thing: you're going to have to open your wallet. For now at least, as with past pre-order exotics, there's no way to get this weapon for free in the game—though there likely will be in future. Shelling out cash now just gives you immediate access to the new exotic sniper rifle.Beyond revealing this new...
At the end of last year, I listed a possible Nvidia laptop chip (ie, not just the GPU but the CPU, too) as something I'd really like to see from 2025, and since then we've had plenty of intimations that we might actually see such a thing. Now, we're hearing this might be announced at Computex later this month.According to ComputerBase (machine translated), "the official unveiling [of an Nvidia PC...
Grand Theft Auto 6 recently dropped its second trailer. It was almost three entire minutes filled with plenty of action—both on the streets and in the sheets—but if that wasn't enough for you, Rockstar also went ahead and dumped 84 brand-new screenshots and bits of artwork to feast your eyes upon.They're damn good pics, too, giving us a closer look at Grand Theft Auto 6's characters and locations within Leonida.There...
