E3 2020 is officially cancelled but, with the PS5 and Xbox Series X due to release in late 2020, what does that mean for the next-gen consoles? What it means for PS5(Image credit: charnsitr / Shutterstock.com)The good news is that Sony wasn’t attending E3 2020 anyway. However, we were expecting third-party developers and publishers to announce or showcase their PS5 games at E3 2020.

Despite id Software’s promising otherwise, this week it has confirmed that Doom Eternal will not deliver a true 4K experience on Google Stadia . It’s worth noting that the Xbox One X and PlayStation 4 Pro versions of Doom Eternal will also be upsampled to 4K, but the PC version’s highest “Ultra-Nightmare” setting will support true 4K performance. “We couldn’t be happier to be bringing Doom Eternal to Stadia, and are thrilled to announce that the game will be capable of running at true 4K resolut

E3 2020 has officially been cancelled, the ESA (Entertainment Software Association) has confirmed. The city of Los Angeles, where E3 2020 is held every year, has declared a state of emergency around the coronavirus outbreak (via LA Times). E3 2020 was due to run from June 9 to June 11 at the Los Angeles Convention Center (E3’s home since 2009). Companies including Microsoft, Nintendo, Warner Bros, Bethesda, Sega and Ubisoft were confirmed to be attending E3 2020. (Image credit: TechRadar)With th

Intel has redesigned PC power supplies (PSUs) to make them more efficient, not to mention more affordable, while shrinking down cabling and connectors to make the internals of the computer neater and tidier in general. Intel’s new type of PSU uses its ATX12VO spec, which stands for ATX 12 Volt Only. As that name indicates, it will employ a single rail (12V) as opposed to the multiple rails in existing power supplies for PCs. The chip giant said: “Intel plans to continue to publish the ATX Multi

We’ve heard plenty of chatter around why E3 2020 may be on its last legs – and now it looks like the massive gaming expo has been canceled. Originally slated for June of this year, E3 2020 was plagued with behind-the-scenes disagreements, high-profile dropouts – we’re looking at you, Sony – and a domino effect of other technology and gaming conferences being canceled in response to the COVID-19 virus. It may be we never know quite how E3 2020 would have turned out, though by all accounts it was

Just a day ago, we spotted some system requirements for Doom Eternal that were way higher than we expected. Official Doom Eternal system requirements have now been revealed on Bethesda’s blog, and they’re much more reasonable than the brief requirements that surfaced earlier. The Doom Eternal system requirements are kind of all over the place, and it’s hard to nail down the perfect system to play the game. For instance, the AMD Ryzen 3 1300X has a 3.5GHz base clock and just 4 single-threaded cor

Ubisoft has thrown its weight behind Nvidia by pledging to “fully support” the company’s beleaguered GeForce Now cloud gaming service. Since GeForce Now left its beta period just a few weeks ago, dozens of games have been removed from its catalogue from a number of high-profile publishers. Ubisoft, however, has thrown Nvidia a much-needed lifeline by reaffirming its support for the controversy-sparking service. “We believe it’s a leading edge service that gives current and new PC players a high

EA has just announced that the Command & Conquer Remastered Collection will be released on June 5 for PC gamers via Steam and its own Origin store. The remastered compilation, which has been put together in celebration of the 25th anniversary of the venerable RTS series, consists of Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn, Command & Conquer: Red Alert, plus three expansion packs – Covert Ops, Counterstrike and The Aftermath. 4K and moreSo what exactly do you get with the Remastered Collection?

PS4 exclusive Horizon Zero Dawn will come to PC, it’s been confirmed by Sony. PC players can get their hands on it this summer. “Yes, I can confirm that Horizon Zero Dawn is coming to PC this summer,” Hulst said in an interview that strangely seems to downplay the announcement. The best PS4 games, including HorizonThis is fantastic news for PC players – but don’t expect this to be the start of PS4, and later, PS5 games launching on PC day and date. In my mind, Horizon Zero Dawn was just a great

We bought the cheapest smartwatch we could find from Aliexpress – the the M4 (which looks a lot like the Xiaomi Mi Band 4). The watch has a 0.96-inch colour screen (unlikely to be OLED) covered by plastic and it’s about the size of Xiaomi’s popular smartband. The watch is compatible with the Fitpro app, which can be found on Google Play and the Apple App Store . It’s not all bad though, because the app seems to actually work, allowing you to easily link the M4 smartwatch to your phone. Just bear

Following hot on the heels of Altered Carbon’s second season, Netflix has released a trailer for Altered Carbon: Resleeved, an animated spin-off movie from acclaimed writer Dai Satō (Cowboy Bebop, Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex). Looking a bit like a non-interactive video game, Altered Carbon: Resleeved sees Takeshi Kovacs assigned to protect a young Yakuza tattoo artist from killer tech ninjas and CTAC (Colonial Tactical Assault Corps) soldiers on the planet of Latimer.

“Using a 70 percent isopropyl alcohol wipe or Clorox Disinfecting Wipes, you may gently wipe the exterior surfaces of your iPhone,” the site reads. Avoid getting moisture in any openings, and don’t submerge your iPhone in any cleaning agents.” The instructions are rather specific on what to use and what to avoid and vary depending on which model iPhone, iPad, display, or Mac you have.

Launched way back in February 2015, the Canon EOS 5DS and EOS 5DS R were meant to bridge the gap between professional camera bodies and enthusiast ones. It’s not just the R5 that could see the production of the 5DS line stopped – the EOS 5D Mark IV proved to be a more popular camera for Canon fans, outselling the 5DS globally. At one time, a model called the EOS 5D Mark V even appeared in the company’s internal roadmap. The 5DS and the 5DS R are practically identical in every way, with the sole

Call of Duty is expanding its repertoire, it seems, with a new, free-to-play battle royale game called Warzone that could be on the cusp of release to the masses – for 150 players at once. Chaos’ video informs us that Warzone is a “free-to-play, battle royale game […] that you can download and play for free.” So far, so Fortnite – and Activision is no doubt seeking to cash in on the battle royale trend in a similar vein to Respawn’s Apex Legends, which launched in early 2019. Warzone, however,

But for one developer, Martha is Dead’s LKA, real excitement sits with the potential for next-gen upscaling techniques. “It’s one of the most important advances in visual capacity that we were waiting for,” studio head Luca Dalco told Official PlayStation Magazine. “Our studio has come a long way over four years and Martha Is Dead will strive for photorealism,” he said. “We’re excited to see the next-generation hardware incoming to support us bringing our vision to players.” After months of wait

The Mandalorian season 2 has finished filming ahead of the show’s previously announced October return. The live-action Star Wars TV show on Disney Plus was already shooting again back when season 1 premiered in November 2019. Director of photography Baz Iodine posted “that’s a wrap on season 2!” Star Gina Carano, who plays Cara Dune in the show, posted a similar thing on Instagram. Take a look at the short film below for more on how they did it:Season 2 arrives in October, sandwiched between two

And, frankly, games have the potential to look much better on Nvidia GeForce Now, assuming that you’re playing at 1080p (side note, Nvidia needs to work on getting a 4K version of GeForce Now running). Nvidia GeForce Now is probably the only gaming platform without Skyrim (Image credit: Bethesda)The case of the disappearing PC gamesI don’t know who to blame for the games that keep disappearing from Nvidia GeForce Now. You’re essentially borrowing a PC to play PC games that you wouldn’t otherwise

CEO and founder of Epic Games, Tim Sweeney, has declared that Epic is standing behind Nvidia’s GeForce Now cloud streaming service, calling it “the most developer-friendly and publisher-friendly of the major streaming services”. These are the best graphics cards of 2020Read our early thoughts on Nvidia GeForce NowInterested in the competition? Here’s what we think of Google StadiaIn a recent thread of tweets, however, Tim Sweeney has confirmed that Epic Games will not be following the trend. Not

Unsurprisingly, considering Halo: Combat Evolved is an older game based on the same engine, the game that kickstarted the Halo franchise also managed resolutions of 7,680 × 4,320 at a rock-solid 60 fps. Even so, during our playthrough at 8K resolution, our framerate counter never dropped beneath 60 fps. At 8K resolution, Halo: Combat Evolved looked simply stunning. So, a 4.00x factor for a 2560 x 1440 resolution monitor results in a 5120 x 2880 Dynamic Super Resolution. Sadly, we couldn’t get DS

Respawn Entertainment enthralled Apex Legends fans earlier this year when, prior to the launch of Season 4, they announced a new Legend called Forge but promptly had him killed by the actual new Legend, Revenant. It was a nice bit of storytelling that proved to be an appropriately dramatic and surprising way to introduce the sinister character of Revenant. But Respawn has now revealed that it wasn’t just trying to entertain the community with this bait-and-switch, it was also trying to mislead d
