When some of Microsoft's own employees publicly protested against its supply of AI technology to the Israeli military, they were fired."The Israeli military uses...
Fan-made remakes of popular games are a risky thing. You never know when you're going to sink years of your life into a passion project, only to eat a cease and desist letter from an expensive lawyer representing a faceless corporate overlord that forces you to either change it up or shut it down entirely.

(Image credit: Green Tree Games) As much as I'd call myself a strategy enthusiast, it's always been difficult for me to get into the really crunchy, grognardy, rivet-counting wargames like Gary Grigsby's War in the East or Combat Mission.

That’s right, Andor is back to remind us of just how great Star Wars stories can be. The show’s final run of episodes will take us right up to Rogue One, and fills in one of the...

The Oblivion Remastered game is finally here and it looks, well, modern. And by modern I mean brown. The mud’s brown, the water’s brown, and the grass is brown. It’s all extremely brown and I’m not sure how to feel about that as someone who was wowed by Bethesda’s bright fantasy world 19 years ago. Comparing screenshots between old Oblivion and Oblivion Remastered make it pretty obvious: There’s a thick...
