Gearbox and Take-Two recently brought forward the release of giggling gunslinger Borderlands 4 from 23rd September to 12th September. This came a week or two after Bungie and Sony also decided to release their Marathon reboot on 23rd September. If you thought all that was evidence of publishers playing 4D chess around the currently unannounced release date of GTA 6, with Bungie and Sony making the fair assumption that Take-Two won't release GTA 6 and Borderlands 4 on the same day... then you wer...

US automakers will get some relief from US President Donald Trump's tariffs, according to a new White House fact sheet. Prior to his new executive order, manufacturers had to pay a 25 percent tariff on any parts used in any US-assembled vehicles.

In addition, automakers will only be required to pay tariffs on steel or auto parts (not b...

According to Financial Times, Park said that US tariff policies and stronger export controls against artificial intelligence products are expected to have an impact on product demand in the second half of the year. In addition to a downward trend on sales, the company also expects tariffs to rais...

Toyota and Waymo have announced that they've entered a preliminary agreement, along with the former's mobility tech subsidiary, Woven by Toyota, Inc.

Ultimately, however, the goal is to develop a new autonomous vehicle platform together, presumably for robotaxies. They're also aiming to "leverage Waymo's autonomous technology and Toyota's vehicle expertise" for futur...

A step in the right direction. In addition to the overall firmware update for the Switch, Nintendo has provided an update to the (now red) Switch eShop that is very welcome in one way, and perhaps not so welcome in another. To put it simply, changes applied to the 'Charts' and 'Current Offers' pages now seems to put less focus on the so-called 'eSlop' and more on genuinely decent games more deserving of your attention.

Company of Heroes 3 manages to find white-knuckle drama in even the smallest moments. In most RTS games - Command and Conquer, Age of Empires - the excitement comes from executing big maneuvers. In CoH, something as simple as moving one squad of soldiers into the same building as another can devolve into an all-out war. It’s not just the mechanics; the guns, the explosions, and the soldier yells all sound fantastic. It’s a sensory overload, in a way that feels right for a war game. Two years sin...

Y'know... just in case. Virtual Game Cards is now a thing for the Nintendo Switch, letting you easily 'eject and load' titles from one console to another and lend digital games to family and friends, while providing a more elegant solution to redownloading your eShop games. One small, yet notable addition includes the ability to hide your Virtual Game Cards. So if there's anything in your collection that might be, shall we say, unsavoury to some, then you can simply hide it from view.
