There's way too much in that trailer. If you're wanting to keep it a surprise, it looks just as good as the first.

You can get a dog in Dark Tide now? :o You can, they introduced a new class (the Arbites, defender of the Lex and definitely not a thinly veiled Judge Dredd ripoff) a month or two back. You get a Cyber Mastiff that follows you around and pounces on enemies to lock them down. They're a bit overpower...

In other news: https://www.polygon.com/star-trek-voyager-game-across-unknown/ Colour me intrigued. I'm similarly intrigued by this, it's an interesting genre to apply this license to but one that fits the source material pretty well. I do think it's going to be a missed opportunity if they don't ge...

I think you have too high an expectation of character assassination. These people have no shame, no morals, and at this stage in the presidency, the ability to just say "that's fake news" and then throw 15 other news stories at the press to be able to just move on as if nothing happened. Hegseth and...

Yup, excited for that. I may end up giving the first season a second watch before season 2 starts.

My opinion on it did waver quite a bit over the two weekends, but really the negatives were more about my feelings towards the genre as a whole than the game itself. I think they have a really solid game; great player movement, animations, incredible audio, visuals, the level destruction is fantasti...

I don't need to have a conversation with AI, not when this latest stage of "technology" has ridiculous power demands to serve it, at the expense of the population as a whole. Indeed. Just imagine the energy requirement of AI analysing the screen contents of millions of machines constantly. Data cen...

Pat of me thinks "ambient" in this context is just marketing speak trying to avoid the inevitable furore over privacy concerns. I am not installing an OS that is constantly analysing everything on my screen because there is no way it's doing that locally. I'm not sure I'd trust them even if they wer...

Does anyone actually understand what any of this means ? https://www.windowscentral.com/microsoft/windows-11/microsoft-teases-windows-12-next-version-os-agentic-ai-ambient-computing-copilot Davuluri confirms that in the wake of AI, Windows is going to change significantly. The OS is going to become ...

It's good, probably more enjoyable than I was expecting given my usual dislike of this type of game. The maps are well designed to promote more close-medium range encounters, and the health regen mechanic makes sniping far less worthwhile unless you're particularly accurate. I just wish it was a lit...

Called it. Got back home, Dave had grabbed me a beta key. Booted up, got straight into a game with no queue whatsoever. Then proceeded to have an absolutely miserable ten minute game where I had to catch myself from uninstalling it, and giving it another try when more prepared to actually play inste...

Part of me suspects this is a planned marketing tactic. They know how many people would be logging in over today and tomorrow because beta access is restricted to those who have a code for it, and therefore they'll know exactly how many accounts would have access and they can assume that most of tho...

I don't think I was even more than dimly aware of Epstein before his death, but we're now talking about a direct link between him and the President of the United States that's been front-page news for weeks. If she dies, the suspicious is absolutely going to be on Trump, whereas with Epstein it was ...

Given that it's a story that refuses to go away, possibly the *only* story about Trump that's refused to go away, even I'd be surprised if they offed her at this stage because of how blatantly obvious it'd be. At the same time, I don't think they can offer a pardon either because of how blatantly ob...

Is it too much of a stretch to imagine that because trying to explain the economy and the job market to Trump is a painful and fruitless task, his advisors just bring him big colourful charts with all the lines going up, and that's why he thinks he's doing so well? I'm afraid that in the case of "l...
