Nvidia is potentially about to announce a new CPU for PCs, featuring an integrated Blackwell GPU, according to reports. This is a story that’s parked well and truly in the rumor and speculation space, of course, but if there’s one company that has the resources to design an Arm CPU for the PC and make it work, it’s Nvidia. If you want the best gaming CPU for your PC at the moment, you’ll need to buy a chip based on the x86 architecture from Intel or AMD, as that’s what the PC standard has used s...

Roguelike ARPG Hordes of Hunger has been on my wishlist for quite a while now, and it’s just landed on Steam. It brings together the crowd-smashing wave survival of Vampire Survivors, Hades-style upgrades, and hack-and-slash gameplay that strikes a halfway house between the reckless brutality of Diablo and the measured intentionality of Dark Souls. Following a demo earlier in 2025, it’s now here in early access, and you can even grab it cheap courtesy of a special launch sale.

For longtime Stephen King fans, “The movie version of The Long Walk is on its way” may sound like a cruel tease — and a familiar one, at that. King’s 1979 novel (written under his Richard Bachman pseudonym) has been heading toward theoretical film production since at least 1988, when Night of the Living Dead director...

Every Fromsoftware game requires practice. Yes, they're challenging, but with a deep understanding of the mechanics and bosses, you can exploit the systems to become victorious. This is true of Dark Souls, Bloodborne, Sekiro, and Armored Core - that's why you can beat the Asylum Demon and Tree Sentinel the first time you meet them. I'm certain this design philosophy will be part of Elden Ring Nightreign as well, but that doesn't mean changes aren't coming. After the game's recent network test, F...

Two new Intel gaming CPUs have just had a massive drop in price, with nearly 25% being wiped off the cost of an Intel Core Ultra 7 265K on Amazon. Originally launched at a price of $394, the CPU is now going for $294.99, just six months after it first came out. I originally gave this CPU a mediocre score of 5/10 in my Intel Core Ultra 7 265K review, as it had a serious bottleneck in several of our game tests, and it was too expensive for the performance it provided. However, with a huge price dr...

I feel like it’s one of those abstract, fluid unquantifiables - what makes one FPS game feel good versus another? I know when I play it. Doom. Half-Life. FEAR. Trepang2. But I still can’t fully reverse engineer the dynamics. With that in mind, Pigface - despite its grim, sleazy, DV-camera aesthetic - is ever so slightly magical. It’s a horrible game criticism cliche, and it doesn’t tell you enough, but at the same time, I know you know what I mean when I say that the shooting here feels great. S...

The Diablo 4 Berserk crossover has arrived in Sanctuary, but it proves a rather expensive outing if you’re looking to dress up for the occasion. While the legendary manga series created by Kentaro Miura has long inspired many games, including Dark Souls, Elden Ring, Final Fantasy, and Dragon’s Dogma, it’s now making an official appearance in Blizzard’s ongoing ARPG. There are certainly some impressive cosmetics on offer here, but the price tag is leaving a sour taste in the mouth.
