'18 Wheels Of Thunder' boasts Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing's original box art, in a font forged from guitar pedals, light beer, and divorce papers. Flames jet from the snout of the marauding 'rig like snorted breakfast tequila following an especially piquant ex-wifely punchline. A rammed police car flails uselessly against the sheer girth of but one of those 18 thunderous wheels. Perhaps we might imagine a single tear trickling down the exasperated coparoo's cheek. As we reach out to wipe it f...

There’s a curious anomaly sitting among all the Nvidia GeForce RTX GPUs at the top of the latest Steam Survey. Right there at number four sits the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650, a budget gaming GPU from 2019 that not only has no ray tracing hardware, but also has no Tensor cores – it can’t even run first-gen DLSS upscaling. In terms of specs, this Nvidia GPU is a very long way behind the best graphics card models you can buy right now. It has just 4GB of GDDR5 VRAM and 896 Turing CUDA cores. Amazingly...

So long and thanks for the memories.

Apple urgently requested suppliers to ship as many premium devices as possible to the United States by air freight, especially those priced above $3,000, in response to President Donald Trump's announcement of "reciprocal" tariffs of up to 104% on trading partners (via Nikkei). Apple, along with Dell, Microsoft, and Lenovo, reportedly scrambled to mitigate the impact of the tariffs by accelerating shipments before April 9, the day the tariffs came into effect. "We got a call from clients to make...

Serial leaker Sonny Dickson is back today with a new image of some protective cases for Apple's upcoming iPhone 17 Pro, and the large camera hole is certainly the standout feature on show. The iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max are expected to debut a major redesign of the rear camera bump, replacing the traditional square module with a horizontal, rectangular bar that stretches across the back of the device. This new layout resembles the runway-style camera panel seen on Google Pixel phones. Apple's ...

Good news for Smash and retro fans. Last week, Nintendo shared a lot of fine details about the Switch 2 and in case you missed it, one thing it also confirmed was the new system would support the GameCube Controller adapter.

Two months and counting! We're now about two months out from the Switch 2's release and it looks like there's already a line for the system's launch at the Nintendo New York store. As originally highlighted by GoNintendo, leading the charge is "super fan" and YouTuber known as 'ChickenDog' - who is documenting his entire wait over the next few months:

Is $80 already enough? There's been a lot of talk about the $80 price tag attached to the Switch 2 launch title Mario Kart World and Nintendo has justified it by claiming the game is "so big and so vast", but what if it ends up charging for additional content in the long run? Ex-Nintendo Minute duo Kit and Krysta, who now run their own YouTube channel, have touched on the idea of Nintendo potentially demanding even more gold coins in the immediate future for possible Mario Kart World DLC - sugge...

See, this is why you need professional reviews.

It's a keychain! The Switch 2 has been officially confirmed to be arriving this June, and ahead of the big launch, Nintendo offering a brand-new themed item on the My Nintendo Store in North America.

It's something you "really can't miss". The next Nintendo generation is upon us and if you're not already on the Switch 2 bandwagon, it's apparently something you "really can't miss" according to Nintendo's Bill Trinen.

The old Roze skin in Call of Duty Warzone and Modern Warfare became infamous for its all-black design that made it almost impossible to see in shadowy corners of the battlefield, but in recent weeks Black Ops 6 has been plagued by a similar issue, this time involving a skin for its Terminator-inspired T-800 skin. Finally, an update has arrived that should improve the T-800 Endo Titanium Core skin’s visibility.

Title Update 1 gives Wilds the teeth I was waiting for.

Whether it’s Metal Gear Solid, Splinter Cell, Assassin’s Creed, Thief, or any other genre titan, stealth games all suffer owing to the same paradox - a tension between what they’re meant to be in theory versus what they actually are in practice. You’re the world’s greatest secret agent. You’re a superhuman hitman. With instinct, intellect, athleticism, and cutting-edge equipment, you can infiltrate even the most securely guarded enemy bases, complete your objectives, and get back out without any...

The Drug Dealer Simulator games are being hammered by negative reviews in response to Movie Games SA's "investigation" into Schedule I.

Social media platform Instagram has been around since 2010 yet it still doesn't have a dedicated iPad app. In fact, the last we heard about the network's interest in tablets was back in 2022, when Insta head Adam Mosseri said there simply weren't enough iPad users to merit developing a native app. A baffling standpoint, but one that could finally be changing. A current employee of the service spoke anonymously to The Information recently and said that in this, the year 2025, Instagram is at last...

Path of Exile 2 Dawn of the Hunt — its first major update since it launched in early access last year — has been a disaster.

The British Academy of Film and Television Arts (or BAFTA, if you're after something a bit snappier) has announced the winners of this year's BAFTA Games Awards - and it's very much been Astro Bot's night, with the acclaimed PlayStation 5 platformer taking home the gong in five categories including Best Game.

Predating long-running behemoths like Runescape and World of Warcraft, 1997’s Tibia is an MMORPG that’s still going all these years later. While not as widely known or heavily supported with new content, it’s still a name many players of a certain age will remember fondly, and one that many still enjoy to this day. However, it’s revolved around the same lineup of four classes since it launched, but that all changes today - after 28 years, Tibia finally has a brand new vocation: the Monk.

Right, Doom: The Dark Ages is still a month away, but I'm guessing there's some of you that could do with a bit of boomer shooting to fill the gap in the meantime. Metal Eden will probably scratch that itch, the next game from the devs behind the quite violent and flashy Ruiner, given that it's out May 6th. That's still about a month away though, so you could always try out the free demo that dropped today offering a small taste of its sci-fi shooter.

Meta-owned social network Instagram is developing an app for the iPad, according to a report from The Information. An Instagram employee with insight into Instagram's recent moves to take advantage of the situation with TikTok shared the tidbit about the company's work on an app for tablets.

Based on the documents acquired by the group, Statewatch claimed that the program developed its pr...

Apple is going to unveil iOS 19 in just about two months at its June WWDC event, and rumors suggest that it's going to bring a big change to the iPhone's design.

Blue Prince is really good, and LocalThunk wants to make sure everyone knows about it.

With sci-fi weaponry like Cyberpunk 2077, Titanfall-style wall running, and brutal FPS combat à la Doom, Metal Eden is shaping up to be a real treat. Revealed earlier this year, it’s a shooter I’ve been eager to try, especially with my Doom brain reactivated thanks to the upcoming launch of The Dark Ages. Well, now I can, and so can you, because Metal Eden has just dropped a Steam demo as it ramps up towards launch.
