Have you ever cracked open someone’s PC only to be horrified at the amount of dust and debris that’s taken up residence inside? In extreme cases, those dust bunnies that sneak into a PC can even damage a system’s hardware. The best way to do that is with dust filters. Many modern cases ship with dust filters. Magnetic air filters typically run about $8 to $10.

You know the drill by now: you have only a few days, and a single opportunity, in which to assassinate some hateful jerk in Hitman’s latest Elusive Target mission, so get planning, sneaking and eavesdropping, and be sure to prepare that precariously placed piano. Hitman’s 23rd elusive target is one Kieran Hudson, a sleazy paparazzo/tabloid journalist who has ruined the career of a former sitcom star with a “particularly destructive series of rumours”. Said sitcom star has employed the agency to

In the developer’s latest blog, we learn that updates will now come every month and Platoons will be introduced in the next update. DICE previously released updates every season, but it said that it has a lot planned for Battlefield 1, so it’s opted to release these updates monthly. The last “seasonal” patch, titled the Spring Update, arrives this month, and we’ll start seeing the monthly updates in May. As for what we can expect in the Spring Update, DICE is finally bringing Platoons to Battlef

Pictured: Far Cry 4After seven years, Far Cry 4 director Alex Hutchinson has left Ubisoft. “Extremely proud of all we achieved on Far Cry and Assassin’s, but very excited to build something new,” Hutchinson wrote. Secondly, you can check out Typhoon Studios’ logo on its official website, and it looks quite a bit like Ubisoft’s logo—I find that very funny. Thirdly, Far Cry 4 is one of the best action games from the past few years, so I’m excited to see what Hutchinson and his new studio are up to

Well, Blizzard has responded via its forums and scorned players may not be too happy with its answer to their feedback. “We want to assure everyone that we have looked into this concern and have found that Journey to Un’Goro card distribution is working properly, both at a per card and per rarity basis, and is consistent with previous Hearthstone releases.” Blizzard has dealt with issues similar to this in the past by offering compensation to all players affected. However, while some players are

Man O’ War Corsair is a Warhammer universe sailing game that lets you battle monsters, and other Warhammer races, out on the open sea. It’s been in early access for around a year, but now developer Evil Twin Artworks reckons it’s ready to release the game for real—and it will do so on April 19th. We have Custom Battles to allow you to fight any of the races against the others—34 different ship types, 13 types of wizard”. 1.0 won’t mean the end of development, of course, with Evil Twin planning t

Medieval build-’em-up Besiege offers a lot of physics-based shenanigans for not very much money, letting you build vaguely Robot Wars-esque siege engines, before letting them loose on Medieval villages and fortresses. The update’s named, rather grandly, the Besiege Multiverse, and it will add co-operative and competitive multiplayer, a level editor, and an open sandbox you can mess around in to your heart’s delight. Here’s a trailer:Excitingly, you’ll be able to build levels while your friends a

Are you a Counter-Strike: Global Offensive veteran with an urge to blow a few bucks on silly swag? If so, then allow me to direct your attention the Valve Store on WeLoveFine, where a real-life version of the Five Year Veteran Coin is now available for preorder for $45. As the FAQ explains, if you haven’t earned the coin in the game, then you’re not allowed to buy this physical rendition. If your account is straight-up ineligible for some other reason, however, that’s the end of it. “We have no

A new Kingdom Come: Deliverance video diary showcases acclaimed English actor Brian Blessed belting out cut scene dialogue with true gusto, and also enthusing about the game’s “brilliant” script. It’s well written, and it is written in English in rather a classical style, because of history.” That’s all a reference to the fact that Kingdom Come: Deliverance is a “realistic” RPG, set in a relatively small area of central Europe in the 15th century. The video is based entirely around cutscenes, bu

Some clever people have found a way to emulate the PS3 version , but why is this game not being made for PC anyway? Sega is a publisher with a rich history of cool, quirky Japanese games, and I’d love to see them on PC. After a failed Fig campaign , layoffs at Harmonix , and MadCatz’ chapter 7 bankruptcy declaration , chances are we’ll never see a full-fledged Rock Band game on PC. And this is the full Monty of Titan cards, using Nvidia’s fully enabled GP102 GPU—no disabled CUDA cores in this mo

Bulletstorm, with its gore comedy and vulgar hyper-masculinity, was a satiric throwback to Duke Nukem, and a game far better than Duke Nukem: Forever. Get outta here, Duke, Bulletstorm doesn’t need you. Bulletstorm: Full Clip Edition, released today, is a remaster of the 2011 sci-fi FPS—with a side of Duke, but more on that later—and it’s still a lot of fun. Full Clip Edition is $50/£30, which is a lot for a nearly six-year-old game, even a remastered one. And then there’s the new, $5 DLC which

The closed beta for Master X Master, the new free-to-play MOBA from NCsoft that Tom really wishes you’d pay attention to for a minute, is now underway. The beta is scheduled to run until April 27 and includes PvE stages, different PvP modes, minigames, and access to giveaways, contests, and promotions. If you do, however, you’ll have access to whatever Masters, skins, and other such stuff are in it during the test period. The servers will be wiped after the test is over, but “fresh” Founder’s Pa

Total War: Warhammer 2 was officially announced last week with a dramatic trailer featuring the High Elves, the Dark Elves, and the Lizardmen doing battle over a patch of deep jungle terrain. “Players will struggle for dominion over the ailing Great Vortex that has swirled for millennia above the Elven homeland of Ulthuan. Sandbox gameplay is sacrosanct to Total War,” game director Ian Roxborough said in the video. That’s where the Great Vortex story comes into play: Instead of being the last ra

Still, the fantasy of joining a team and discovering my hidden talents drifts into my head every now and then. I took my hefty 6.5 hours of experience with KotK and teamed up with pro players Aw Naw, Viva La Bad, Raeldon, and Omniskillz. My shortcomings really stood out in stark relief when playing on a team with four pro players with thousands of hours of experience between them. One measly kill, during the entire eveningIn the five or six matches we played, I came out with a total of one kill.

Update: Gearbox has issued a statement saying that, in the absence of action on its demands, it has begun the process of walking away from the Bulletstorm deal with G2A. “Gearbox Publishing heard loud and clear the concerns voiced by John ‘TotalBiscuit’ Bain,” a spokesperson said. All customers who spend money deserve fraud protection from a storefront. To that end, all existing G2A Shield customers are notified by April 14th that fraud protection services are now free and they will no longer be

Indie developer Point Blank Games announced today that Shock Tactics, the turn-based tactical combat game that blends XCOM-style battles with exploration elements and “intricate squad management,” will be out on April 11. Shock Tactics puts players at the head of a team of Free Space Pioneers—essentially a gang of mercenaries sent to explore and scavenge a recently-discovered alien world. Shock Tactics is on Steam but not yet available for pre-purchase, but will sell for €20 when it goes live. F

If you’re looking for a graphics card upgrade and don’t want to drop more than two Benjamins, a GeForce GTX 1060 might be in your future. As it happens, Newegg currently has a good price on a custom cooled model from EVGA, the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB SSD Gaming ACX 3.0 (03G-P4-6167-KR)—it’s on sale for $200, or $180 after submitting a $20 mail-in-rebate. EVGA overclocks this card from the factory with a 1,607MHz base frequency and 1,835MHz boost clock. Those speeds are up from Nvidia’s reference cl

A decade after its original release in Japan, The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky the 3rd is on its way to the West. XSeed Games announced today that the final part of the Trails in the Sky trilogy will be released on May 3. The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky the 3rd will be available on Steam, GOG, and the Humble Store, and will go for $30/£25/€30. Also on the way, sometime after Trails in the Sky the 3rd, is The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel, first released for the PS3 and PS

You can put that concern behind with G.Skill’s new 128GB kit of Trident Z RGB DDR4 RAM, just be sure your motherboard supports that much memory. G.Skill has begun offering its Trident Z RGB line in full sets of eight modules, available in 64GB (8GBx8) and 128GB (16GBx8) capacities. G.Skill’s 128GB kit runs a bit slower at 3,333MHz, but has the same timings. That’s a bit of a broad pitch—most users don’t need 128GB of system memory, and certainly it isn’t required (or beneficial) for any of today
