Helldivers 2 is built around players working together to achieve common goals – spreading democracy by eliminating bugs and robots across the galaxy. This teamwork is a key part of what makes the game so enjoyable. So, when the developers, Arrowhead, allowed players to vote on things like ship names, it seemed like a logical step. However, the way these votes are being handled is actually causing division within the community it was intended to bring together.

Even in fictional detective stories, revisiting a crime scene is generally avoided. This is because police often continue searching the area, and suspects are frequently found nearby.

Valve engineer Pierre-Loup Griffais, speaking at the Skill Up event co-hosted by Lucy James of TopMob, stated that the Steam Machine will likely cost about the same as building a PC with similar capabilities.

Rumors about a remake of Red Dead Redemption were dying down, but a recent development has reignited excitement among fans. It’s not a leak, but an official game rating – a strong indication that the game is coming to consoles. Players have been hoping to revisit the original Red Dead Redemption on current gaming systems for years, and this new rating suggests that may finally happen. Let’s take a closer look at what this rating means and when we might be able to play the game again.

There’s a ton of gaming content available, and honestly, it can be too much. Between lengthy game updates, constant online discussions, and super detailed guides, just staying informed feels like a second job. That’s where online summarizers can help. They’re like having a personal assistant who reads everything gaming-related and gives you the key takeaways.

Gamers are constantly bombarded with huge amounts of text – everything from detailed game updates and developer blogs to extensive background stories and endless online discussions. Keeping up with it all can feel like a second job! That’s where text summarization tools come in handy. They automatically condense long articles and posts into short, easy-to-understand summaries – basically, an automatic “Too Long; Didn’t Read” (TL;DR) for everything gaming.

Stranger Things openly draws inspiration from classic 80s movies and stories, with clear references to films like ET, Gremlins, Ghostbusters, A Nightmare on Elm Street, The Thing, The Goonies, Scanners, and It.

I got to play a demo of the game, and it dropped me right into a later part where my character – I made mine female – had to navigate a pleasure district during the Bakumatsu era. One of the biggest changes in NiOh 3 is how missions work. Instead of picking them from a map and then loading into a location, you just select the mission directly. Now, don’t get me wrong, this isn’t turning into an open-world game like Elden Ring. They were really keen to emphasize that! Each historical period will still have its own map, but they’re way bigger than anything we’ve seen in the previous NiOh games. The levels aren’t completely open, it’s more like we’re following set paths, but there are wider areas to explore. Even though it’s still a fairly linear structure, I found tons of hidden corners with chests, optional bosses, and shortcuts. Honestly, it made the maps feel much bigger and less restrictive than in the older games, which was a relief.

The upcoming science fiction story, The Expanse: Osiris Reborn, aims for a realistic feel. While it’s not a simulation, it will be more down-to-earth than games like Mass Effect. To ensure accuracy, the developers consulted with former NASA astronauts and an International Space Station commander to portray life in space authentically.

When you look at the join date on X profiles now, you’ll see more information than just when the account was first made. It also reveals how many times the username has been changed, any connected accounts, and the account’s general location. This update is designed to help people identify real accounts versus bots. The “Account based in” feature specifically makes it easier to notice if someone isn’t actually located where they say they are in their profile or where you might expect them to be. Many users are already pointing out accounts where the stated location doesn’t match their bio.
