Save 35% and make me jealous in the process Amazon UK, thosejerks, have the Thin GF63 all the way down from £1099 to £709. While exclusive to Prime members, that’s a seriously small pile o’ coin for an RTX laptop, which tend to average even higher than the Thin GF63’s pre-sale price. And you’re still getting good specs outside theGPU, from the display’s nippy 144Hz rate to the Intel Core i7-12650H....

Possibly featuring “Splatoon mechanics in dungeons” I know as much about programming video game monsters as I do the exact flavour and consistency of the sands on Mars, but I’ve always thought the chief advantage of the Slime monster archetype is its economy. A slime, in most games, is a squashy smiley face. Why, I could grow myself one of those right this very instant, by doodling a circle in MS Paint and squinting very hard....

Spice Maureen!!! (but pirated) We’re still a few months out from the bug-be-gone-em-upactionofWarhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2’s September 9threlease date, but that hasn’t stopped a jolly band of heretics skirting the watchful gaze of the inquisition and pirating what appears to be a leaked version of the entire game.

There’s more to patch 7 than glitch-hunting and snogs, however. Due in September, it introduces dynamic splitscreen functionality, expansions for Honour mode, modding tools, new endings for evil playthroughs, and a brace of tweaks for Origin characters....

A big September for FPS fans The ouroboros is a snake eating its own tail: an infinite thing, a never ending cycle. While I do think this is a rather metal logo, there’s an argument to be made that it’s not current or trendy enough. With this in mind, I think the words “Call Of Duty” should represent the endless, unstoppable nature of existence. And withCall Of Duty: Black Ops 6revealing its multiplayer open beta and early access dates, we must further consume and be consumed by the circular march of COD....

Don’t ask how they stay in the sky My favourite ever mode of travel in games is flying, so I was already poised (in mid-air) to really enjoy swooping around the world ofFlock. It’s a gentle exploration game from the people who brought youWimot’s WarehouseandI Am Dead(including Pip Warr, RPS in peace) where you never touch the ground, instead gliding around the strange forests and rippling meadows atop a giant bird with a beautiful trailing tail....

Great now all I can think about is James Pond I’m calling it now. When, ina “few weeks”according to the developer, fishing ponds come tostrategybuilderManor Lords, it will take approximately 45 minutes for some enterprising medieval fintech tinkerer toutterly bork the entire economy, and it will be glorious.

Ebuyer pips Amazon on the speedy WD Blue SN580 Funnily enough, it’s not actually Amazon that are bringing the biggest savings on this drive, which currently sits tight on ourbest gaming SSDslist.

Over in Americaland, the 2TB Blue SN580 is also enjoying a non-Amazon sale, with $30 off at B&H Photo Video....

One of the best Steam Deck microSDs, in its fattest form Here in the UK, you’ve got a choice between £95 at Amazon or £100 direct from SanDisk owners Western Digital. Those just awaking in the States, you’re looking at even better deals: $84 from Amazon or $88 from B&H Photo Video.
