  • (Image: © Flickr via USDA)Fighting to keep net neutrality rules in place is a massive uphill battle, in large part because it’s become tied to partisan politics. But there’s also a lack of knowledge and overall understanding of net neutrality, and what’s at stake, outside of tech savvy circles. As currently implemented, the FCC’s net neutrality rules already take this into consideration. The FCC doubled down on the healthcare claim in a document of supposed myths and facts (PDF) related to net n

  • Ghost Recon Wildlands is getting a new PvP update called Jungle Storm that will (finally) introduce ranked play to the game. Also on the way are two new classes, four new Elimination and Uplink maps, new weapons, and other updates for both PvP and PvE modes. The second new class will be revealed later, because that’s how these things go. Details are obviously very thin right now but Ubisoft will reveal more of what’s coming during a livestream on Twitch at 9 am PT on December 13. The Jungle Stor

  • The Evil Within 2 is a very solid psychological survival-horror game, with one scene that was “so horrifically graphic,” Joe wrote in his review,” I worry recounting it will cause me to bring up my lunch.” That’s all I need to hear to know that this is a game I should be playing, but if you require a little extra convincing, the newly-released trial version on Steam should help. The demo will cover the “opening chapters” of the game, including “tight, nightmare-riddled, linear experiences, as we

  • Toshiba has begun shipping a 14TB helium-filled hard drive to clients, its largest capacity to date and the company’s first foray into helium territory. Of course, helium-filled HDDs are not new, and WD already released a 14TB HDD a couple of months ago. However, Toshiba’s is the industry’s first HDD to pack nine disks inside, and the only 14TB drive to use conventional magnetic recording (CMR) technology. Toshiba is the only company offering a nine-platter drive with 18 heads, with each platter

  • Game director Luke Smith acknowledged the bold move this morning, tacitly giving his blessing for a weekend of nonsense. Head to the Winding Cove in the EDZ, and be sure to bring your Legendary Shards. As always, he offers one armor piece per class, each priced at 23 Legendary Shards, and an exotic weapon for 29 Legendary shards.

  • Here are the ladders of PC games ranked from the best to the worst. Look at those hands really grabbing each rung and holding on.

You don’t even need ladders climb down, not if there’s hay—and boy, is there hay. was a long time ago by gaming standards, and I don’t particularly remember if its ladders were good to climb or not.

  • In November, Stardew Valley creator Eric “ConcernedApe” Barone gave fans a glimpse at some upcoming singleplayer content, not to mention the game’s long-awaited multiplayer update. See for yourself:The previous teaser image showed a boat with, Andy reports, some lights, boxes and barrels. Its metal structure and aquatic backdrop could hint at underwater farms or other undersea content, which fits with the boat. In more concrete news, an accompanying blog post from Chucklefish confirmed that the

  • As we learned earlier this year, Steam’s Curator Connect feature stands to let developers search for appropriate Curators, and send them copies of their games directly through Steam. In what Tyler aptly described as a “formalized, proactive system for PR”, the feature aims to prevent fraudsters from obtaining and reselling Steam keys. According to Kotaku UK, Steam’s Curator Connect is now operational, having spent the last several weeks in closed beta. Moreover, curators can now embed videos und

  • Dauntless’ massive ‘Sharpen Your Skills’ update is out today, but its many promising additions also brought a curious subtraction. The lack of solo hunts is only temporary, though. we ran into some issues with solo play. Because of this, solo play will not be available when the Sharpen Your Skills Update rolls out. However, we will support solo play and are figuring out how to get it working again!”

  • Where Stardew Valley invites you to get cozy and farm at your leisure, Atomicrops demands quick reflexes and sharp aim. It’s a self-described “roguelike farming simulator” that plays like a twin-stick shooter, and according to two-man team Toby Dixon and Danny Wynne, it’s coming in 2019. Apart from alpha GIFs, that’s all for the site details. Luckily, Dixon and Wynne held a Q&A on the Raw Fury Discord channel earlier today. Here are the highlights:

  • At the end of every year we publish a gallery of the best hi-res screenshots we snapped over the past 12 months (here’s last year’s article). This year, we want to include some of your screenshots, too. Upload them to a file sharing service—ideally one that won’t compress them—and drop a link in the comments. This isn’t a contest, but please don’t submit screenshots you didn’t take, as we want to make sure everyone is credited correctly. For inspiration, check out some of the great Assassin’s Cr

  • One of the main reasons we started the Indie Channel was to try and cover as many cool indie games as possible. Case in point: Fidel Dungeon Rescue, an adorable dungeon crawler that somehow passed us by. It just got a big free update, so now seems like a good time to fix this glaring omission. After its recent 2.0 update, Fidel Dungeon Rescue looks even better. First and foremost, the free update made the path planning phase a little longer and “more forgiving of mistakes so new players can expe

  • While the first Outlast was made with the idea of a DLC in mind, that was not the case for Outlast 2. “We will, at some point, make an Outlast 3 and answers will be given,” the Facebook post adds. It won’t be a sequel to Outlast or Outlast 2, but it will be a distinct experience set in the Outlast universe. I’ve reached out to Red Barrels for comment and will report back as and when it replies. Check out the aforementioned Facebook post in full here.

  • Beyond Good and Evil 2’s appearance at this year’s E3 came as a surprise. Some of that is teased above, as the devs show off a handful of ship designs and character models. Blink and you’ll miss it, but there’s also the odd snippet of non-E3 trailer in-engine animation that looks pretty neat. But this team is laying them out on the table because they want you to be part of the process through the Space Monkey Program.” More information on the game’s Space Monkey Program can be found over here.

  • Last night’s Game Awards brought with it a deluge of trailers, new game reveals and announcements. Rare’s pirate simulator Sea of Thieves was among them, which now has a launch date: March 20, 2018. Sea of Thieves is a full-blown shenanigan simulator, it reads, and opens with the following:Sea of Thieves is the Wallace and Gromit of pirate games.

  • Nvidia just announced it’s newest Titan graphics card at the NIPS 2017 conference, the Titan V. NIPS stands for Neural Information Processing Systems, and the focus is on AI and deep learning. In raw numbers, the GPU portion of the Titan V can do 14.9 TFLOPS of single-precision FP32 computations, which is 31 percent more than the Titan Xp. But the real power of the Titan V, at least insofar as deep learning and AI calculations are concerned, comes from the 640 Tensor cores. But despite the massi

  • Lots of games were announced at The Game Awards tonight, some prizes were handed out, and A Way Out game director Josef Fares wouldn’t stop saying “fuck” until host Geoff Keighley finally cut him off and rolled the trailer. Oh, and The Rock flipped off Game Informer, that was pretty good too. There were also a few good Game Awards deals on gaming hardware on eBay. Those “regular prices” are conveniently a bit higher than you’d actually find these products on Amazon, but the sale prices are genui

  • One of the more interesting games in recent years has to be the four-player survival-horror game GTFO, originally announced earlier this summer. At The Game Awards tonight, developer Ten Chambers showed off what I believe is the first look at actual gameplay with a new trailer that promises a sinister and thoroughly unpleasant treasure-hunting experience. Players form teams of scavengers who are forced to explore a vast underground complex in search of valuable artifacts. The YouTube page indica

  • “I’m so passionate to be here, so excited to be meeting these industry people,” began Fares calmly, before suddenly adding, “The Oscars should fuck themselves up. He paused to ask Keighley if he could swear, then shouted, “Fuck the Oscars! Fuck the Oscars! EA Originals is publishing A Way Out, by the way. In this case, it’s like they’ve been treating me very well, I have 100 percent of the income to my team for the game I’m doing, you know?”
