A coder who goes by the name of GalaxyHaxz has uploaded a reverse-engineered version of the original Diablo source code. According to this GitHub post, it took them over 1,200 hours over the course of “6-12 months”, in bid to ensure “that everything is preserved.” Do however expect an accessible project that aims to make things “much easier” to support and maintain into the future. Devilution aims to fix this, by making the source code of Diablo freely available to all.” But I’ll never not be bl

Everyone has an inner voice, whether they’d care to admit it or not. I have an inner Gordon Ramsay, and Cook, Serve, Delicious! Compared to the first game, it’s hard, and life is short enough even without games raising my blood pressure. But, thanks to a Netfl ix binge of Hell’s Kitchen, I’m back. My inner Ramsay raises his voice: “EMMA!

As detailed throughout the Dark Souls subreddit, Dark Souls remastered players using both BitDefender and Windows Defender have reported corrupted save files, indefinite load times and instances where cloud sync services—Google Drive, for example—interprets save files as “in use” and therefore makes them inaccessible. Under the headline “Warning: BitDefender and Windows Defender may treat DS:R saves as corrupted files”, here’s Dark Souls community manager Izmar:Salutations, Chosen UndeadBased on

Instead, the Event Pass lets paying players unlock items on a permanent basis over those who don’t. “Just like the crate and key system, you’ll be able to get rewards in the Event Pass system regardless of whether you made a purchase.” And your mission progress is always tracked, so you can buy the Event Pass late in the event and still get all the rewards you’ve earned.” PUBG Corp says the first Event Pass is Sanhok themed, lasts about four weeks, and includes dozens of daily, weekly and Sanhok

While some Fallout fans are wary of the new direction Fallout 76 is taking the series, others are dying to know more about it. For example, interest in West Virginia, where Fallout 76 is set, spiked after the release of its E3 trailer . Likewise, on the heels of Noclip’s new Fallout 76 documentary , some dedicated digital topographers have started stitching together an unofficial map of the game using whatever footage and images they can find. Some of the B-roll in Noclip’s documentary shows wha

Remember when a new Leisure Suit Larry popped up on Steam earlier this year? Well, here’s a reminder: a new Leisure Suit Larry popped up on Steam earlier this year . As for the iconic leisure suit: that came from a joke Lowe made at a pitch meeting. “This game is so out of touch, it should be wearing a leisure suit,” Lowe said, referring to Softporn Adventure, the primitive text adventure that the Larry series is based on. The popularity of bootleg copies made them perfect vehicles for computer

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive got a major visual update today in the form of the new Panorama UI. “From the Main Menu to the Scoreboard, the entire experience of interacting with the game has been updated,” Valve said. Unfortunately, it’s not actually finished, and so this release only supports the “practice with bots” option, either solo or with a friend. As Dot Esports pointed out, this is actually the second game to get the Panorama treatment: Valve gave Dota 2 a Panorama update last year.

Astroneer currently supports up to 4-player co-op, but a scene near the end of the trailer shows more than four astronauts running around together. “We want to push that player number as high as we can go,” said Joe Tirado of System Era when we spoke at E3. “High level goals of the game that you sort of aspire to once you’ve learned the mechanics of the game,” Tirado said. As a reward for completing some of these optional high-level goals, Astroneer also plans to introduce player customization.

Steam’s move into the modern age has taken another step forward with the launch, in beta, of Publisher and Developer Homepages. Under the old system, developer and publisher pages were simply ugly lists of games, prices, and a very general indication of Steam user ratings. The new homepages are currently in beta and not complete, but Valve figured it’s close enough to put it out for people to play with. A list of developers with configured homepages is available on Steam, although Valve warned t

“Imagine a game developer is running an ad on Facebook and working with a popular Twitch channel,” the Red Shell website explains. The site states that Red Shell does not collect personal information about users, such as names, addresses, or emails. The list of games found to be running Red Shell is surprisingly broad, and includes everything from indies like Holy Potatoes! Dire Wolf Digital, formerly of The Elder Scrolls: Legends, said something similar about the presence of Red Shell in its ne

If you’re not caught up with the goings-on of Fortnite, check out our Fortnite Season 5 primer first. The countdown timer might still be tied to the missile, but they posit that Fortnite might be shifting and changing in accordance with an old Inca myth. More interesting is that the countdown appears to align with Inti Raymi, a religious ceremony in the Inca Empire instated to honor the sun god Inti. Llamas, Fortnite’s mascot, were often sacrificed on this day, a celebration held on June 24. Whe

You probably remember Cyberdog Rex from Fallout: New Vegas. A quest in New Vegas involved finding Rex a replacement brain, as his organic one had begun to deteriorate. While Fallout fans also love Dogmeat, it’s nice to see Rex again, and you can bring him to Fallout 4 with the Project Cyberdog Rex Dogmeat Replacer mod created by Shadowliger. There are also custom accessories made specifically for Project Cyberdog to allow players to further deck out their dogs.” In the meantime, this Dogmeat Rep

AMD attempted to troll Intel yesterday by offering 40 winners of the company’s Core i7-8086K sweepstakes the opportunity to trade their prize for a Threadripper 1950X, noting that it has more cores, cache, and PCIe lanes. Instead, it offered up a humorous response, telling AMD it could have just asked if it wanted a Core i7-8086K so badly. @AMDRyzen, if you wanted an Intel Core i7-8086K processor too, you could have just asked us. They’re competitors, obviously, but they also recently collaborat

About a month ago, Zotac’s GTX 1080 Mini card dropped to $499 on Amazon. You can once again buy the card for $499.99 (MSRP for a standard GTX 1080), and this time it comes with a copy of The Crew 2 for PC. Like all GTX 1080 cards, you get 8GB of GDDR5X VRAM.

Cooler Master is rolling out a couple of mechanical keyboards that trade frills and fluff (for the most part) for a cheaper price tag.
