It's that time of the GPU season where we patiently await affordable graphics cards after the initial high-end launches (and yes, referring to a generation as a 'GPU season' is a thing, okay). And while there's no official word yet from Nvidia or AMD regarding new low-end cards, rumours and leaks abound, the latest being that we're going to get quite a dolloping of memory configuration options.As spotted by popular...

2D MMO Dungeon Fighter Online could quite possibly be the most lucrative game ever made that you've never played. Launched in Korea in 2005 as Dungeon & Fighter, it's since spawned sequels and spin-offs that have earned some $22 billion over the years. Despite being a massive hit in Asia, Dungeon Fighter Online never quite graduated past a cult following in the West. Last month's First Berserker: Khazan could be...

Coral, coral, coral, as far as my mechanical eyes can see. I didn't know quite what to expect when building camps to claim territories and plonking down coral spreaders in my role as leader of a faction of part-mech, part-tendrilly oddities, but it certainly wasn't anything so drastic as half the world becoming carpeted in purple sprouting flora (or is it fauna) in a matter of hours. As much as...

I love eBay. Whether I'm on the hunt for an elusive anime figure that I missed the pre-order period for (that Pop Up Parade Mima Kirigoe will be mine!), or I'm looking for the last bit of kit for a LARP costume, eBay occasionally has it at a reasonable price. You're never sure what you're gonna find spelunking Ebay's depths; I often find myself pining after at least one thing...

There've certainly been a lot of Valve Deckard rumours over the last couple of years, but this one, at least, seems more tangible than previous ones referencing driver files and so on, because it's at least about something physical that's actually moving around in the world.The word on the street according to prolific Deckard leaker SadlyItsBradley (via Notebookcheck) is that "Valve has been importing equipment to manufacture VR headset facial...

Changes to the campaign AI of Creative Assembly's border-gore simulator Total War: Warhammer 3 were the focus of a recent beta test, which revealed one reason the AI was playing too defensively was a bug that made it overreact to the presence of a single hero. Since that beta a second round of improvements has been outlined, which Creative Assembly has detailed in a recent blog post.The first enhancement will...

I am prepared to break my own rules and impulse buy the Oddworld bundle that has just popped up on Fanatical. It includes every single Oddworld game—a series of lavishly animated 2D puzzle platformers starring a weird-looking green guy—for just one dollar, a price that compares extremely favourably to its usual $84.92.That dollar gets you six games (though one of them, New 'n' Tasty, is a remake of another, Abe's...

More than two weeks after launch, Schedule 1 is still the top-selling paid Steam game. That means that the open world drug-dealing RPG is raking in more dough than Assassin's Creed Shadows on Steam, which released only five days earlier. Its active player count is often over 300,000 (with a peak of over 450k), suggesting the $20 early access game has sold at least a million copies (or maybe a...

The Xbox Games Showcase is returning in June with a look at new games from first-party studios and third-party partners, and a deeper dive into Obsidian's upcoming sci-fi sequel The Outer Worlds 2.The double-feature format follows similar Xbox showcases in 2023, when Starfield took center stage, and 2024, which featured Call of Duty—although we all spent some time pretending we didn't really know what it was going to be at...

The Last of Us Season 2 doesn't hit the airwaves until April 13, but HBO has already renewed the series for a third season."We approached season two with the goal of creating something we could be proud of," executive producer Craig Mazin said (via The Hollywood Reporter)."The end results have exceeded even our most ambitious goals, thanks to our continued collaboration with HBO and the impeccable work of our unparalleled...
