G-Assist promises quite a lot, but at bottom it's a local language model you can run off your RTX 30-series (or above) GPU to help you with gaming-related tasks. Now, however, it looks like the number of tasks it'll be able to perform could be about to explode,...
You know how comedy geniuses and chronic dieters will say their favorite brand of chips is "dangerous," because once you rip open the bag it’s a swift trip to the bottom? That’s me with JRPGs; Kingdom Hearts’ absurd garble of a plot breached my treasured memories after I spent 100 hours with its cast, and the Wii’s Xenoblade Chronicles infected me with a deep-seated bitterness at the fact that I...

The finale sequence of the third episode of Andor season 2 will stand among the already superlative show’s top moments. It repeats a pattern from the third episode of its first season, “Reckoning,” which cut between two moments in Cassian Andor’s life when he stood on a stranger’s ship, escaping certain Imperial death at the cost of leaving everything he knew behind — but this episode cuts between places, not...
We have a winner: Sony is the first publisher to dare put a fall release date on a major video game in the year 2025, Grand Theft Auto 6 be damned. Ghost of Yōtei, Sucker Punch’s sequel to its 2020 open-world samurai adventure Ghost of Tsushima, will come to PlayStation 5 on Oct. 2.
