  • (Image credit: AMD)Rumor has it that AMD’s aging RX 460 and RX 560 graphics cards will be replaced by a new mid-range (or perhaps budget) sibling, the RX 5500. This means that the RX 5500 could be AMD’s way of competing with Nvidia’s mid-range 16-series, especially the GTX 1660 since the RX 5500 supposedly has the same number of cores. If that’s the case, then we expect the RX 5500 to start at an MSRP of $200 or lower, if we look at how AMD priced its RX 5700 and RX 5700 XT as any indication. Ad

  • Warsaw is a turn-based tactical RPG set in occupied Warsaw, Poland in 1944 that has players leading a small group of “accidental heroes”—men and women, soldiers and civilians, young and old—against the might of the German army. We said in February that it looks a Second World War take on Darkest Dungeon and it definitely does, as you can see in the new trailer, in both its visual style and the shared theme of desperate struggle against overwhelming odds. “With Warsaw, we wanted to create a game

  • SteelSeries hopes its original ambidextrous Sensei mouse design from a decade ago will fall into the latter category. Either way, the new Sensei Ten is a throwback to the original Sensei in form, with new guts for improved function. “Our team has done a fantastic job staying true to the Sensei design, while upgrading its performance for the demands of modern esports.” Not everyone will agree with the assessment of the original Sensei being the best gaming mouse of its era. For gamers who liked t

  • But Bungie sounded the all-clear last night, and players are now free to move about the Lunar surface—and to go in search of a pretty cool NASA Easter egg while they’re there. That location just happens to be part of the new Moon location in the Shadowkeep expansion, and the remains of LunaH-Map are still there. “As we know, the LunaH-Map spacecraft will crash into the moon at the end of its mission. “Anyone exploring the Moon will have a chance at stumbling across this curious piece of pre-Gold

  • If you weren’t one of the lucky customers who bought a moldy T-51 power armor helmet for $150, at least you can experience it virtually. Naturally, a modder has added the moldy power armor helmet to Fallout 4. The Moldy T-51 Helmet mod adds a helmet that, when worn, will give your character constant radiation damage. You’ll need to own the Nuka-World DLC to put the moldy helmet on your character’s head and start damaging their lungs. The moldy liner can be found under ‘Misc Mods’ in your power a

  • (Image credit: Ubisoft)Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint releases in just a few more days, on Friday, October 4, and Nvidia is getting ahead of the launch with a new “Game Ready” GPU driver (436.48 WHQL) that is optimized for the game. Nvidia did not attach any specific performance claims to its 436.48 driver release. Nevertheless, if you own a GeForce graphics card and plan on playing Breakpoint, this driver is of interest.

  • The Trine games have always struck me as platformers made for people who don’t like (or maybe just aren’t particular good at) platformers. That’s why I’m a fan of the series: Instead of ridiculous thumb gymnastics, I can enjoy a lighthearted fairy tale story, soothing narration, and a focus on puzzles instead of rage-inducing insta-death stunt-jumping. Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power opted for a 3D take on the game that didn’t go over particularly well, so for Trine 4: The Nightmare Prince, deve

  • (Image credit: AMD)Just a few days ago, Biostar inadvertently tipped the pending release of two new Ryzen processors, the Ryzen 9 Pro 3900 and Ryzen 9 3900, with an update to its CPU support list document. One of those chips is now official—the Ryzen 9 Pro 3900. The Pro 3900 is one of several new Ryzen Pro 3000 series processors for the business segment. Pro processors are typically out of our purview since it doesn’t make sense to build a gaming PC around them, but the Pro 3900 is at least mild

  • I’m pretty much committed to clicky key switches, but I can also appreciate Logitech’s thinking behind the Pro X’s versatility. “Gamers, especially pros, have different preferences when it comes to keyboard switches,” said Ujesh Desai, vice president and general manager, Logitech Gaming. “That’s why we wanted to design and build a new Pro keyboard that featured swappable switches. Key switches aside, this is a tenkeyless (TKL) plank—it lacks a dedicated number pad, which it trades for a compact

  • Destiny 2 is live on Steam today, and is unpacking on my PC as we (figuratively) speak. That’s going to take awhile, though (it’s been bouncing between 1-2 hours for about 20 minutes now), and since I’m pretty sure I can’t be the only one in that boat, this seems like a fine time to check out the full patch notes for the 2.6.0.1 update that also rolled out today. ), then this is what you’re after.

  • (Image credit: AMD)AMD is pushing out a new 19.9.3 GPU driver package to Radeon graphics card owners, and with it comes optimized code for Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint, which is due out this Friday. AMD actually beat Nvidia to the punch by releasing its 19.9.3 driver yesterday, I just didn’t see it until today. One is that it introduces support for AMD’s Radeon Image Sharpening to more cards, and specifically the Radeon VII, Vega 64, Vega 56, and Vega Frontier Edition. The other highlight

  • Thanks to modders, Resident Evil 2 Remake’s Mr. X has been turned into everything from IT’s Pennywise to Thomas the Tank Engine, but I think I’ve now found my personal fave. Raz0r’s Ultimate Trainer lets you fiddle around with all manner of things, but most importantly it lets you change the size of enemies, including Mr. X. This mini Mr. X also suggests the existence of a massive Mr. X, which is a bit troubling. You can swap characters, too, though the feature is disabled during Ada and Sherry’

  • Chernobyl: Road of Death is a top-down shooter with roguelike elements. Perhaps neither Chernobyl: Road of Death or Chernobyl: The Untold Story appeal to you. The Chernobyl game train will not stop: both Chernobyl Liquidators Simulator and Chernobyl: History of Nuclear Disaster are both “coming soon” to Steam. As the name implies, the former is all about helping survivors and containing radiation in the exclusion zone. Of all the 2019 Chernobyl games on Steam, this is definitely the most interes

  • (Image credit: DooMFOREVER7z)Minecraft isn’t completely violence free per se, but as far as videogames go it’s quite serene. Aggroing enemies tends to just throw them back a bit, they become awash in a gentle red glow. That’s what Brutal Minecraft is, a full conversion mod for Doom that convincingly adopts the bright tranquil aesthetic of Minecraft. The project has been in the works for a while, but a new Beta 2.0 was uploaded to ModDB last week. Brutal Minecraft is still in development, and wil
