An old Jedi ritual.

Spare time. We challenge any one of you to admit that at some point in the mid-2000s, you didn't try to get a perfect game in Wii Sports bowling. Of course you did! The console's pack-in title had all of us swinging, punching and putting like there was no tomorrow, and the bowling mode might have been the most approachable of the bunch, making that 300-point game feel all the more achievable. The problem was, it was really hard. No matter how hard we tried 20 years ago, a perfect game always fel...

For classic Counter-Strike fans, you may want to keep an eye out for the just announced CS:Legacy from the team behind CSPromod. This is not a mod but a full game due out sometime in Early Access in 2025.

Initially Ubisoft said it wouldn't be supported, then they said it would be and now Valve have said that Assassin's Creed Shadows is Steam Deck Verified.

People Can Fly - the developer of Outriders and Bulletstorm - has signed a deal with PlayStation to work on a new project based on an existing Sony series.

Elden Ring’s Seamless Co-op mod is by far the most popular fan creation FromSoftware’s magnum opus has ever seen. With nearly nine million downloads, it keeps the spirit of the studio’s unique take on multiplayer alive while making it much more player-friendly. Since then, its creator ‘Yui’ has also brought the mod over to Dark Souls 3, and now they’ve taken it even further. That’s right: Seamless Co-op is finally coming to the first Dark Souls.

Agent 47 is about to become much more dangerous.

Nightingale from Inflexion Games continues improvements during Early Access, with the latest patch out now with the developer trying to get it Steam Deck Verified.

Portable nostalgia. We've all got a favourite Nintendo console jingle, right? Y'know, the start-up tune that would play whenever you boot up the system. Much like the consoles themselves, they represent a moment in time; a nugget of nostalgia that effortlessly brings back cosy memories in just a few short seconds. Now, Nintendo is looking to provide that nostalgia in the form of keychains available at the Museum in Kyoto, Japan (thanks, Nintendeal). Presented in what looks to be simple cube desi...

"Good luck seeing your screen some rounds."

The latest Life is Strange game did not perform well for publisher Square Enix, it's been claimed.

Counter-Strike 2 is doing exceptionally well. As of Saturday March 15, Valve’s multiplayer shooter achieved a new concurrent player count record, with a staggering 1,824,989 people playing CS2 simultaneously. Deadlock is standing strong. Half-Life 3…might still happen. Needless to say, the House of Gabe is alive and kicking. But what about the glory days? What about Counter-Strike 1.6, the greatest game (yes) in the entire series? You can still play the original, of course, but if you want a ref...

Both the OpenRazer driver and Polychromatic app for users have seen upgrades in the last few days to bring improved Razer device support to Linux.

It now seems even more likely that Bethesda's current Xbox console exclusive Starfield will launch on PlayStation 5.

Apple prototyped a larger ultra-slim iPhone 17 Air with a 6.9-inch display, but ultimately decided not to go ahead with the device because of fears that it could be susceptible to bending, according to a new report. Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman, writing in his latest Power On newsletter: When it first started work on the phone, it prototyped a device with a 6.9-inch screen — matching the Pro Max. Apple pulled the plug on that over fears that a thin device with a giant screen would be susceptib...

Linux GPU Configuration Tool (LACT) version 0.7.2 is out now bringing with it expanded hardware support for AMD GPUs along with new features for NVIDIA GPU owners.

Beyond expectations. If you can believe it, we are a little over two weeks out from the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct. While we're all ready and waiting for more news from Nintendo's next console, some folks believe they already have an inkling of one of the showcase's key players (thanks for the heads up, Notebook Check). Reece Reilly, the host of the Kiwi Talkz podcast, recently took to BlueSky with the heavy hint that Metroid Prime 4: Beyond will be making quite the splash at the Switch 2 Direct. ...

Ukrainian Metro developer 4A Games is celebrating the 15th anniversary of the videogame series by announcing a year of events, deals, and new material, alongside a tease of where the franchise is going next. The team says it’s continuing to work hard on Metro’s future amid Russia’s ongoing invasion of Ukraine, and adds that fans are in “for quite the ride” in what it calls the most “relevant chapter” of the games to date.  

Back in 2014 the mech combat game Dark Horizons: Mechanized Corps arrived on Steam in Early Access but it was eventually abandoned. Now, a few of the original team got back together to bring it back as Mechanized Corps: Rebirth.

The twin suns are setting on Star Wars: Hunters.

R.E.P.O is a six player co-op extraction spooper that currently sits atop Steam's best seller charts, having amassed around 70k players the week following early access launch on Feb 26, and another 160k since then. That's around 230 thousand players avoiding knifey chef frogs and persistent ducklings while extracting valuables to fill a cash quota. It's a bit Lethal Company but even heavier on the absurdity. As far as I can tell, this popularity comes down to two things. Firstly, the game is a v...

Back in Total FebWar, the Total War: Warhammer III team penned a desperate missive in entrail fluids, full of scrawled warnings about the changes coming to the strategy game's AI. With their last ounce of strength, they rolled out a beta test for the planned tweaks. Now, the results are in, circling in the eerily fallow wake of over 50,000 campaigns, like carrion crows with tangible datasets grasped tight in their beaks. Thanks, death crows! The new query system worked well, with foes no longer ...

What a resolution. A newly updated patent published on 13th March 2025 provides further details to Nintendo's proposed AI resolution upscaling solution for the upcoming Switch 2 (thanks, Game Rant). Though the idea of AI upscaling for the new console is not a new one – with a previous patent explicitly mentioning Nvidia's DLSS technology – this latest filing lends even further support to the notion. The patent goes into detail regarding how AI upscaling can be implemented and even includes some ...

No brain surgery required.

I very much recommend the Steam demo for strategy game 9 Kings, so it's with no shade I say that I'm using 'strategy' here the same way a tube passenger might use a hardback of Ulysses to envelop their novelisation of 2 Fast 2 Furious. Griddy placement and tower defence tactics are involved, but this is primarily a game about launching rocks at dickheads. This is fine by me: launching rocks at dickheads is as solid a premise as any videogame needs to have.

60% of the time, it works, every time.

Phenomenal processing power. Itty bitty screen space.

Good day to ye, reader! I'm not sure what the weather's like in other regions, but here in London we're approaching the unhallowed time of year when grown men are overtaken by the urge to wear shorts. I saw a few unclothed kneecaps abroad last week, but thankfully the boreal winds returned and snuffed them out like premature daffodils. The forecast right now is clear skies till Friday. Pray for us. Alternatively, play some new PC games. Here's a list.
