The M34WQ’s 3440x1440 144Hz IPS panel is gorgeous. When it comes to ultrawide gaming monitors, curved VA panels are very much the standard - but despite their benefits in terms of immersiveness, not everyone prefers them. Therefore, I thought I’d highlight this deal on Gigabte’s M34WQ, a flat 34-in monitor that hits the popular 3440x144 144Hz spec and is today $20 off with a coupon code at Newegg to hit its lowest ever price....

The Honor MagicBook 16 is a slim, powerful choice at this price point. Honor has heavily discounted one of its MagicBook 16 laptops at its UK store, with a Ryzen 5 5600H model with 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD and a 16-in 1080p 144Hz screen going for £499.99.

265k+ people want to be murdered by cannibals As I write this,Sons Of The Forestis the third most played game on Steam with 265,000 concurrent players.

So much content Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice Leaguegot a lengthy demonstration at tonight’s PlayStation State Of Play event, which clarified several things about what kind of game Rocksteady’s long-awaited return to the DC Universe really is. It turns out it’s a game with lots of floaty air combat, lots of noise, lots of loot and gear scores and weapon classes, and with a battle pass (but for cosmetics only). Plus there will be DLC to add new characters post-launch....

There’s a demo available now The next game from the developers of Tetris Effect andRez Infiniteis called Humanity, and it’s an action-puzzle game in which you control a Shiba Inu and try to guide crowds of people around obstacle-strewn greybox levels. A bit like Lemmings, maybe, but presumably with a surprising emotional resonance. Watch the trailer below. I watch this and think: yes,a video game. By which I mean, an aesthetically coherent work in which sound and image and interaction combine to create an experience that no other medium can provide....

Kemono it did not A lot of folks,including our Liam, have been having a grand old time hunting Japanese fantasy beasts inWild Hearts. Great! Less great is that it still runs like concrete on PC, even after aperformance-focused patchthat developers Omega Force had detailed even before the game had formally released. Released earlier this week, the update claims to fix the now-infamous CPU bottlenecking issue (which was severely limiting graphics card performance), as well as more peculiar problems with sound output settings and flashing lights when played on anAMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX....

Be somewhat afraid. This week on The Electronic Wireless Showpodcastour interest was piqued by new trailers for a Jesus simulator and a politics in hell strategy game. We ask ourselves: why are there so many hell-themed games and so few heavenly ones? Is it blasphemy? What would our pitch for a game set in heaven be? (Spoilers for that last one: there’s a lot of admin involved). We also chat about what we’ve been playing this week, and Nate orchestrates a mini-game pitchathon that goes at least somewhat off the rails....
