With mega-games like GTA 6 on the way, it's hard not to feel like games are always getting bigger—both the software itself, and the teams that make it (GTA 6 has an entire dedicated NPC team "art-directing" its every background character). But in an interview with PC Gamer's Joshua Wolens, Saber Interactive CCO Tim Willits said a reliance on games with huge scopes and highly specialized teams may be responsible...
One of the biggest videogames of 2025 was Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, a French JRPG that sold millions of copies, won armloads of awards, and earned not just one but two separate shout-outs from French President Emmanuel Macron.

If you're like me, you've probably become increasingly disheartened almost by the day at just how hard it's becoming to distinguish real photos from fake, AI-generated ones. It does not bode well for the future. There are plenty of suggested solutions, but I like one I just learnt about in particular, in the form of the upcoming CAIM1 camera.The company, Caim, says it "is the world's first camera that attests...
If you were fortunate enough to have toy cars when you were a kid—or rad enough to buy them for yourself as an adult—you probably had fun driving them over absolutely everything in your room. Mine could climb walls, scramble over book mountains, and drift around VHS-case race tracks. We'll soon be able to relive those memories without tipping pencils all over the table when Obstacle Overdrive launches October 2,...

(Image credit: Facepunch Studios)My experiment to see if gamers were as interested in milk as they are in necks has yielded conclusive proof that they are not.
