Forget Nvidia, RAM price increases are set to make memory manufacturers ludicrous amounts of money from AI
Rocketing RAM prices are the talk of the PC gaming town at the moment, but ask people which tech hardware company is set to make the most money out of the current AI boom, and many will tell you it’s Nvidia. They stand a good chance of being correct, too, when it comes to any individual business, but new forecasts by tech consultancy firm Trendforce suggest that it will actually be memory manufacturers that will be swimming in money over the next 12 months. As we all ponder just how to get the best gaming RAM for our system without…

It’s a time of great upheaval in Overwatch 2. Now rebranded to simply be Overwatch, the hero shooter’s undergoing a soft reset, starting with the latest season, which kicks off a six-part narrative arc and introduces a number of fresh members to the roster.

Discord promise they won't force everybody to do a face scan following outrage at new age verification policy
Social media company Discord are trying their best to reassure people irked by the recently announced global rollout of some new age verification measures, which include face scans and a background “age inference” system for determining whether the user is an adult. Amid predictable backlash against potential privacy violations – see, for context, last year’s cybersecurity breach that saw a hacker get hold of personal information used for age verification via one of Discord’s customer service partners – Discord are promising that they won’t require every user to complete a face scan or upload some ID, and that the “vast…

I still haven’t left the starting area in Skull and Bones, but it’s a relief to know that as and when I do, I’ll have some big molluscs to bombard alongside those boring galleons. Ubisoft’s open world Jolly Rogerer forges bravely on with another season of updates, Eye of the Beast, despite Ubisoft recently jettisoning a bunch of games and studios in their efforts to buoy up the share price. Yes, this is the same Skull and Bones that has 320 in-game players on Steam as of writing, and a worryingly Biblical user review average of 66.60%.

Helldivers 2 passes 150,000 players on Steam for the first time in months thanks to Cyborgs, who may actually be the good guys: "I'd be playing for the Cyborg faction if given the option"
Shocking the most loyal patriots, it seems that Cyborgs from the original Helldivers game may not be the villains Super Earth made them out to be. In fact, the half-human rebels seem to be solely responsible for Helldivers 2 having a major resurgence on Steam right now.According to SteamDB, Helldivers 2 has enjoyed a 24-hour peak of 151,969 players (and 150,237 people are currently playing as of writing) – the last time Arrowhead’s squad-based shooter hit those kinds of democratic numbers was in September 2025.
