A PC and PS5-compatible PCIe 4.0 drive at a rather low price. The Crucial P5 Plus is the best value ‘second-gen’ PCIe 4.0 drive, with sequential speeds up to 6600MB/s that make it ideal for anything from mid-range to high-end gaming rigs or the PS5. Its TLC NAND and DRAM cache also mean that performance remains high even in sustained write scenarios, unlike cheaper QLC/no-DRAM drives. The Crucial P5 Plus normally costs £100+, but today it’s down to £92....
That’s £33 less than it is on Amazon UK. The Core i5 12400F is a surprisingly excellent gaming CPU, offering the power of Intel’s new Alder Lake architecture in a simple six-core twelve-thread configuration. The CPU supports PCIe 5.0 and DDR5, but it also works with cheaper DDR4- and PCIe 4.0-based hardware. It’s normally £200, but it’s down to £167 on AWD-IT which is a pretty decent deal if you want to build a powerful gaming PC on a budget....
Professor XCOM For the last ten years, theXCOMdesigners at Firaxis have traded in ‘if’s and ‘maybe’s. If this shot lands, then maybe I can pull off this carefully calculated plan I’m brewing. It’s exactly the kind of taut, knife-edge tension we’ve come to love and expect from their turn-basedstrategy games, butMarvel’s Midnight Sunstakes a different approach. As the titular demon hunters join forces with some famous Avengers faces to take down the evil sorceress Lilith and Marvel mega villain Chthon, there’s never any question about whether your moves will or won’t work here....

Half-Life just works in VR It was probably the most cyberpunk thing I’ve ever done, a glimpse of the future viewed through memories of my past. And then it was gone. The dev kit went back to my editor, and Valve disabled Half-Life 2’s VR mode for reasons I can no longer Google, because the algorithm has latched onto the recently released Half-Life 2: VR Mod. This new mod is a fan-made, Valve-blessed project that’s free to download on Steam, but requires you own vanilla Half-Life 2 to function....

Sorry, crypto bros. The ban on crypto and NFTs echoes Mojang’sstatementfrom this summer scuppering players who wanted to incorporate the controversial technologies into Minecraft....
Pop what you catch in the new vivarium In a game about someone navigating the competing pressures and existential angst inherent to choosing a career, it seems appropriate that an update would let them sack it all off and go fishing.Sablehasn’t quite done that, because yesterday’s update sends you hover-biking off after enough fish to earn the right to don the new, professional mask of a desert angler. On your bike, then....
Starburst or Cartwheel? I can’t decide Being interested in both sci-fi and strategy games, I’ve always wanted to reshape the galaxy. The free 3.6 Orion update for Paradox’s spacey grand strategyStellarisis live now, and it’s done that, but in a way I hadn’t quite imagined. Among the changes with this update are six new galaxy shapes to mix up the pattern of your interstellar empires a bit. Orion also rebalances fleet combat, bringing in elements of theopen betathat began back in October....
One of many tidbits from a 3 hour interview Romance has never been Bethesda’s strong suit, fromSkyrim’s barebones marriage system toFallout 4’s bonus-XP-granting fade-to-black cutscenes.Starfieldwill be a little more nuanced than that, suggests executive producer Todd Howard, offering more complexromance optionsthanFallout’s. That’s just one detail from a nearly 3 hour-long interview Howard gave on the Lex Fridman podcast, where he also talks scrapping space strandings, and (gasp) why he prefers to play on consoles to PC....
Vote now as we continue deciding the single best thing in games Last time, you decided thatdakka is better than overwatch (not Overwatch). It wasn’t the most overwhelming victory of this scientific process so far, but it certainly was the loudest. More dakka indeed. This week, I ask you to pick between a cool form of human movement and some cool human speech. What’s better: mantling or cool swearing? The second-most common phrase shouted at a video game is, science doubtless says, “You can get up that!...
