Most PC users can agree that as Windows progresses, Microsoft forces more integration with its other products and services onto the user. One of the worst culprits for this has to be OneDrive, Microsoft's cloud storage service, which Windows basically tricks people into using on install. While normally just frustrating for consumers, this could become a huge security risk when Microsoft's planned June update goes ahead.The update, spotted by Techzine,...

Battle passes have a lot of problems when it comes to FOMO, but one of the worst ones is that they disappear after a season is over, locking you out of all the rewards you missed. It should be more common for games to let you keep them after they expire, or, better yet: not have them expire at all.Netease is at least taking a small step toward making battle...

I have long suffered from RPG FOMO. It’s a debilitating condition that causes me to question every choice I make in roleplaying games. My selected spells, skills, and methods may “work” in the moment, but then I’ll hear about some incredible solution another player found that leaves me feeling inadequate.I've tried to curb this affliction before: Nearly 20 years ago I began my Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion adventure as an...

I thought Warner Bros. might keep the latest videogame-to-Hollywood adaptation in theaters longer since it's brought in over $900 million globally at the box office since its release five weeks ago… but no. Just shy of the billion dollar milestone, A Minecraft Movie is now available digitally for home viewing.You can rent A Minecraft Movie today ($19.99) or buy it ($24.99) on streaming services like Prime Video or Apple TV,...

A little legal jousting with Nintendo hasn't stopped Palworld from making new stuff. This summer, the survival game with totally-not-Pokémon will have a collab with eternally popular indie crafting game Terraria in its Tides of Terraria update.Pocketpair's announcement post is pretty thin on details, but says that you'll be able to "catch, train, fight, and work monsters from Terraria just like Pals."I've played both of these games and there's something...

Friends, I have a disease. Not, uh, not one of the bad ones, I mean a disease of the mind. In any management-esque game—from Theme Hospital to Factorio—I am incapable of planning until it's too late, until I have layered one haphazard system on another to an extent that I can't easily go back to the drawing board.I need to slap things together and see how things work to make...

Personally, I slightly lose interest above 240 Hz when it comes to monitor refresh rates. Of course, I hung up my competitive shooter aspirations a decade or more ago. But if you want to be really, truly competitive, you can't have too many hertz. Which is why the new Samsung Odyssey OLED G6 is big news. It's the world's first 500 Hz OLED gaming monitor.We've seen 500 Hz panels before,...

Forget about your feeble 140 DPI, 1,000 nit, 4K OLED monitors, Samsung has just announced a new OLED panel with 5,000 pixels per inch capable of 15,000 nits and beyond 8K resolution. Oh, and it measures just 1.4 inches across.It is, of course, aimed at VR headsets, hence the teensy proportions. Samsung says it will also run at up to 120 Hz and hit 99% of the DCI-P3 gamut. If...

AI is an initialism I'm hearing multiple times a day lately, and usually only with a 30% hit rate of being used for the right actual thing. LLMs, such as ChatGBT and DeepSeek, are constantly in the news while we talk about putting AI in everything from our gaming chips to our schools. It's easy to dismiss this as a pop-culture phase, just like uranium fever gripped the glove in...
