Balatro review – near-infinite poker possibilities
Poker goes into the blender and emerges in fine form. A week into Balatro – Balatro were jesters and fools in ancient Rome; I googled it – I’d say that this is the Goldberg Variations of Poker. It’s Poker: Possibility Space Edition. It’s a roguelike deckbuilder that starts with the basic poker hands and then…

We put our humanity on the line analyzing every scrap of Deep Lore in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree’s trailer

Helldivers 2’s community manager gets mistaken for an automaton by Discord, gets locked out of account for over 40 hours due to ‘sending too many DMs too fast’
The team over at Arrowhead Games has been wildly busy with Helldivers 2—which is to be expected.

Amidst dire industry layoffs, FromSoftware’s Miyazaki says his studio is ‘very blessed’ to have long-term hires now taking director roles: ‘games can be directed by others, not only myself’
Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree is coming—and it’s a big’un. Massive, expansion-level DLCs feel increasingly rarer in a climate flooded with live service microtransactions and seasonal passes. Personally, I’m just excited to get my grubby little mitts on another slice of FromSoftware’s pedigree. It’s also potentially a function of how FromSoftware does business, focusing…

The CPU Cooler Wars saga continues, as Cooler Master sues a bunch of other manufacturers over all-in-one patent infringements
If you’re one of the many PC gamers out there that uses an AIO or closed-loop cooler to chill the CPU, you’ve almost certainly got a product that licences one of Asetek’s designs.

How to find and kill Hunters in Helldivers 2
The new Personal Order sees you trying to kill Hunters in Helldivers 2, but as always, you might not have been paying attention to the names of the things that have killed you so far. I can almost guarantee you’ve been murdered by Hunters before, considering they’re one of the most troublesome, and possibly a…
