US federal judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers has denied Elon Musk's request for an injunction that would have immediately stopped OpenAI's conversion into a for-profit entity. Musk filed for an injunction late last year after suing OpenAI and Microsoft and accusing them of telling investors not to fund rival AI companies, such as his own xAI. According to the Financial Times, the judge dismissed his request based on that claim of anticompetitive behavior. Gonzalez Rogers cited a previous statement by...

PlayStation support studio Visual Arts has reportedly become the latest industry body to be hit by the ongoing wave of layoffs.

Qualcomm believes its latest X85 5G modem will set a "huge delta" between the performance of high-end Android devices and Apple devices, largely thanks to its AI-powered features. Announced at this year's ongoing Mobile World Conference 2025 in Barcelona, Qualcomm's next-generation X85 modem supports 5G mmWave, 400MHz download bandwidth in the Sub-6GHz spectrum with 1024-QAM modulation for better data speeds, and Satellite connectivity. The X85 can deliver peak download speeds of up to 12.5Gbps ...

As a thank you for the colossal launch of the Steam demo, Mecha Break developer Amazing Seasun Games is giving all players some free in-game currency. The multiplayer mech game’s demo quickly started contending with Valve stalwarts as soon as it dropped, and is still pulling in very respectable numbers. Even so, the game currently has an incredibly low user rating from players, sitting at ‘Mostly Negative’ on Steam.

With Season 2 kicking off and the start of the Tekken World Tour right around the corner, 2025 looks like it’s going to be another amazing year for fans of Bandai Namco’s legendary Tekken series. As one of the earliest fighting games on the original PlayStation, Tekken has a unique link to the consoles, with...

After the success of Marvel Rivals, NetEase is publishing another shooter due for release this week: FragPunk. At least, it's releasing on PC, as its console launch has been delayed without a new release date.

If you've been toying with the idea of picking up a gaming handheld, we have a Lenovo Legion Go deal that is too good to pass on. Amazon is currently selling renewed Legion Go handhelds for $549.99, that's a massive $200 under MSRP, and you are still entitled to a 90-day warranty to ensure you're happy with the condition of the device. In our Lenovo Legion Go review, we praised its "top tier specs" and "awesomely sharp display" even going so far as to consider it the best handheld gaming PC when...

On its surface, Project Zomboid is a world of brutal survivalism, but check under the hood, specifically the enormous patch notes that The Indie Stone has been publishing since the arrival of unstable build 42, and you can see the delicate dance of values, metrics, and rebalances that really makes Knox Country turn. More than State of Decay 2, Dying Light, or DayZ, I think Zomboid is the best game of its kind on PC, but the latest version is called ‘unstable’ for a reason - there are still impro...

Grand Theft Auto 5 on PC has been updated with a new Enhanced version, bundling in a range of tune-ups such as ray-traced graphics and support for AMD FSR and NVIDIA DLSS, new features for GTA Online, and a heaping helping of swankmobiles for your fleet of GTA cars. Existing GTA 5 story mode and GTA Online progress will carry over, and it’s all free to people who own the old version of GTA 5, which is now known as the Legacy version on Steam.

Eagle-eyed Dungeons and Dragons fans have spotted a fresh reference to everyone's favourite Baldur's Gate 3 vampire, hidden away in the game's new Monster Manual.

My god, they've done it.

Are these the cards that will really be available?

Nintendo has won another lawsuit this week, this time against a pair of counterfeit sellers selling fake amiibo cards on Amazon.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3+4 is about to bring back some of the best games from the entire series, and it's poised to be quite the nostalgic blast from the past. I still fondly remember gliding around THPS 4's College level, exploring the parking lot, and making my way onto the rooftops at my own pace. That said, there's been some confusion as to whether or not the 3+4 remake will work the same way - based on Activision's announcement, it seems possible that, rather than open ended, the new THPS 4...

As much money as Big Tech is sinking into generative AI, it's no surprise to see more AI-powered tools materializing to valiantly assist you in spending your hard-earned cash. (Yay?) Snark aside, the shopping tools Google began rolling out on Wednesday might make it a bit easier to find the clothing and makeup you'd have been searching for anyway. Vision Match Once a wee Google Labs experiment, Vision Match has graduated into the mainstream. The AI feature, which arrived for testers in 2023, let...

"This isn't a real game, but [it] could be some day!"

27-inch is the cheap one but the 34-inch ultrawide looks like the pick

Love wins.

Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford has reacted to online negativity regarding the upcoming Borderlands 4, stating "if you take developer's passion for granted, we'll all pay the price".

Sony has just released a new update for its PS3 console, which turns 19 this year.

The GeForce RTX 5070 is out today, at least on paper. Yet despite having already slipped from its original February release plan, the RTX 5070 looks set to launch directly into the same stock shortage problems that have been causing frowny faces all around the rest of the RTX 50 series graphics cards – and, while you’ll still be able to try your luck with most of the GPU’s board partner variants, the one version you definitely won’t be buying today is Nvidia’s own Founders Edition.

I'm keeping this page up-to-date with all the latest RTX 5070 listings and prices in the US and UK.

Apple on Tuesday announced new 11-inch and 13-inch iPad Air models with the M3 chip, and while the processor upgrade and updated Magic Keyboard are the biggest changes, there's another difference in the larger model compared to its predecessor that may have gone unnoticed. For the new 13-inch iPad Air, Apple has mysteriously removed the "2x bass" feature from the device's landscape stereo speakers. Double bass was introduced in the previous-generation 13-inch iPad Air with M2 chip in May 2024. A...

From what I’ve played so far, the greatest achievement of Metropolis 1998, aside from its absolutely gorgeous retro visuals, is how it combines both macro and microcosmic city-builder mechanics. If you want, you can create an entire town in seconds, using intricately designed prefabs for shops, offices, and homes. But you can also create every building piece by piece - you can zoom right in and place walls, furniture, and intricate details, at the most granular level. Visually reminiscent of Sim...

A long-running zombie MMORPG you can play in your internet browser is shutting down next week, after almost 20 years of plank-smashing and supermarket looting. Urban Dead is closing down because a new UK law threatens hefty fines for online services (including games) that don't follow age restriction rules and other guidelines. It looks like making the game compliant with that law would be too much work for the solo web developer who's been keeping the apocalyptic servers going for this long.

The first batch of Monster Hunter Wilds event quests are here, with plenty more on the way throughout the month. Capcom is detailing what to expect from these limited-time missions, with some armor and difficult-to-come-by cooking ingredients up for grabs if you’ve got far enough in the RPG to participate in them. So if you‘re making your way through Low Rank, or want more to do now that you’re in High Rank, these event quests are the perfect opportunity to get more out of Wilds.

Let's visit a whole new world.

Squash those space bugs. No Man's Sky landed its 'Worlds Part II' update back in January, with the space adventure getting treated to new solar systems, biomes, terrains and a bunch more wonderful stuff. This week, in an attempt to iron out some of the creases, developer Hello Games has released a hotfix to get the latest update running in tip-top condition. As is usually the case with NMS hotfixes, many of the changes this time around have come from user-reported issues. It's a long list of bug...

Volvo has officially launched the ES90, the fully electrified version of its S60 sedan. While the vehicle can technically be considered a sedan, Volvo says it has the "adaptability of a fastback, and the spacious interior and higher ground clearance associated with SUVs." It's the first Volvo EV with an 800-volt system, which promises faster charging times. Since Volvo's 800-volt technology uses lighter components to reduce the vehicle's overall weight, it could also lead to a longer range and b...

Last night, several years after the launch of Grand Theft Auto 5's enhanced edition on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, the game's next-gen features finally arrived on PC as part of a free update for all existing users.

11 bit studios latest game Frostpunk 2 was recently rated Steam Deck Playable by Valve, with the developer noting they are working towards getting it bumped up to Verified.

PlayStation has been hit with more layoffs from its Visual Arts studio, following the recent cancellations of multiple live-service games.

A healthy pinch of my motivation for writing about waiter simulation plate em' up The Way Of The Tray is so I can read your hospitality job horror stories in the comments, but I do love the energy here. It's a breathless, colourful (actual) plate-spinner that has you serve mythical dishes in the daily grind for tips from Yokai customers. You'll then invest those tips back into waiter skills and restaurant upgrades, or at least whatever petty cash is left over from paying rent.

Square Enix released a fresh small update to FINAL FANTASY XVI on March 4th, noting a couple of minor fixes but it appears they also removed Denuvo Anti-tamper.
