    Early Game Testing of Intel Arc Pro B720 Workstation AI GPU Shows Comparable Performance to NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti

    Yeah no wonder this thing was dead in the water. Only way it has a chance of making money for Intel, especially in this environment, is by riding the AI hype train.

    Trends from the April 2026 Steam Hardware Survey

    I know it's a bit of a conspiracy at this point, but I don't think AMD cards get surveyed as often as Nvidia cards. When I was running my 980ti in one PC and 6800xt in the other, I kept getting the survey popping up on my 980ti machine. Now that I have a 9070xt and 6800xt in the two...

    007 First Light - Game looks gorgeous!

    -Its doesn't look substantially better than something like Rise of the Tomb Raider or Deus Ex Mankind Divided, which are sort of my "Graphics hit the diminishing return point *here*" games.

    007 First Light - Game looks gorgeous!

    Honestly it just looks like every game from 2016 onward, maybe with marginally better lighting here or there.

    Valve Officially Confirms Steam Controller Launches May 4 for $99

    - Dongle is still around packaged with some Xbox controller skus, and blutooth with wireless controllers results in higher input latency and worse connection than the dongle. I've used both (blutooth with my laptop for convenience) and while its not unsuable or anything it is definitely a worse...

    Turtle Beach Has You Covered When It Comes to More Screens with Its Command Series MC7 Mouse Featuring a 2.5-Inch LCD

    I've been using the same mouse and keyboard for the last 14 years and see no reason to change. *Waves cane at whippersnappers*

    Denuvo Has Been Broken: Hypervisor Bypasses Enable Day-Zero Cracks, Irdeto Promises a Fix

    I tend to patient game pretty heavily, so more than a few times I've made my way to a game after the dev has patched out Denuvo... but honestly at this point either I want to play a game or I don't. I don't twist myself into too many pretzels over whether or what kind of DRM a game might have...

    Valve Officially Confirms Steam Controller Launches May 4 for $99

    It's a small nitpick but I do wish more controllers were compatible with the Xbox wireless dongle thing. Don't want 3/4 different wireless pucks and dongles hanging off my PC.

    Upscaling Technology Gets Put to the Coke/Pepsi Challenge, NVIDIA DLSS 4.5 Comes Out as the Winner over AMD FSR 4.1 in Blind Test

    - The general consensus I am seeing around the web from people who have used both is that FSR4.1 is effectively on par with DLSS4 and is close to DLSS4.5. Its good enough that at this point the lack of a decent upscaler is no longer a reason to avoid AMD like the plague (don't worry there are...

    Chris Avellone Says Wild Wasteland Should Have Been a Toggle, Not a Trait

    -Its a continuation of the first two games, so that automatically gives it a huge leg up. It plays almost essentially the same as FO3, but the world and quests and factions are (arguably) better designed. FO3 is by far Bethsoft's best game and the farthest they've gone from their shallow as...

    Mass Effect TV Writer Says No One Told Him to Dumb It Down for Non-Gamers

    My expectations are in the basement one way or another. Amazon is definitely one of the better options when it comes to doing adaptations, Apple would be another, but even then... Fallout surprised me in the first season, it was remarkably good, but IMO saw a pretty big quality drop in S2 as...

    Industry Exec Says That Gamers Are More Likely to Compromise on RAM Purchases Before Choosing Smaller-Capacity SSDs

    -OTOH you can corner whatever market there is for that demographic. 1 million customers split one way is certainly better than 100 million customers split 1 million ways...

    Industry Exec Says That Gamers Are More Likely to Compromise on RAM Purchases Before Choosing Smaller-Capacity SSDs

    Unsurprising. The system has a fallback for not enough ram, but there is no fallback for too little storage...

    New Xbox CEO Reportedly Told Employees That “Game Pass Has Become Too Expensive for Players”

    So... What does that mean in practical terms? Time to lay off a bucnh of folks at the studios MS purchased from Zenimax?

    The 2026 Game Thread: You Will Own Nothing and Be Happy Edition

    Alright. Did the unthinkable. I met Hanako at Embers. And then I Cyberpunk is yet another deeply flawed modern masterpiece. No one does it like CDPR. Superb story telling, a complete understanding of the source material and a mastery in visual storytelling. Initially I was skeptical of the...

    The 2026 Game Thread: You Will Own Nothing and Be Happy Edition

    Ok so I beat Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty. Ultimately went with Helluva expansion pack, appreciated how it integrated with the base game seamlessly to the point where you wouldn't even know its an expansion unless the missions weren't coded differently from the base game. CDPR seems to...
