    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...

    Reports of RTX 50 Series Black Screen Issues Piling Up as NVIDIA Opens Investigation into the Matter

    I suspected after the pandemic that cards were going to start seeing higher failure rates as OEMs swapped out higher MTBF parts for lower quality ones to get around supply chain BS. I suspect something similar might be happening now with the memory crunch, manufacturers are going with even...

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

    -Yeah, raster graphics were really on another level 2016-2020. When RT started taking off, raster started to look worse as devs put less and less effort into non-RT lighting.

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

    Mother of God, I'm like 50 hours into Cyberpunk and there is just more and more game. It's definitely a slow burn, but I'm feeling pretty fully immersed at this point. The main quests (especially the intro to Phantom Liberty) have been great so far, but the side quests in general are some real...

    Sony Will Reportedly Lessen the Number of Games It Brings to PC Moving Forward

    Sony's ports tend to remain at a frustratingly high price on Steam, even when the port itself is multiple years old and the original game was released back on PS4 or something. I don't understand why certain publishers, like Capcom, seem to understand that selling a couple thousand copies of a...

    Industry-Wide Layoffs and Studio Closures Continue as Gaming Audiences Lose Interest in New Releases

    Yeah the economics of AAA gaming appear to be a trainwreck in the current era. Either you appeal to 50 million people or you're a flaming dumpster fire of a failure, cause the game cost a billion dollars to make for some reason despite good indie or AA devs getting 80-90% of the way there (in...

    Horizon Hunters Gathering Is a Three-Player Co-Op Coming to PC and PS5

    Oh boy, "Hunter's Gathering" is written in zany "theme park" font. Stick a fork in it people, game is DOA.

    Changing of the Guard at Xbox: Phil Spencer Retires, Sarah Bond Steps Down, Asha Sharma Takes Over as CEO of Microsoft Gaming

    AI person stepping up to head Xbox? Some rando passing over Sarah Bond (who decided to quit I guess) for the position? Oh boy Microsoft's Gaming Division is cooked. All the same, its not been doing great over the last several years anyhow, so maybe a shake-up is in order. However not sure if...

    Cyberpunk 2077 reviews are trickling in...

    -I know, but the narrative is structured like there is a rush, even if there really isn't. So if you take your time to explore things after the game makes a lot of noise about V dying, there is some dissonance there.

    Cyberpunk 2077 reviews are trickling in...

    Playing the game now and it's been an interesting read through this thread. The game is stable as a rock for me on my main system, FSR4.0 and FSR3.1 framegen are fantastic and deliver ~150fps with everything but PT maxed with very clean image quality. The game narrative seems to be my...

    AMD Confirms Next Xbox Set to Launch in 2027 with a Custom RDNA 5 SoC, and Valve’s Steam Machine Is on Track for Its 2026 Release

    At this rate, we may very well see any and all consumer stuff exist only on paper until 2028...

    Horizon Hunters Gathering Is a Three-Player Co-Op Coming to PC and PS5

    Best thing that can come from this game is Sony dropping the price on Forbidden West to a reasonable level to gin up interest before launch.
