Valve has just gone on record confirming that the Steam Machine will ship this summer, alongside the Steam Frame VR headset. That’s great news for those who have been waiting patiently for its arrival and who have deep pockets. But, with Valve just increasing the Steam Deck price by $300 and PC component prices so high across the board, there’s the very real prospect for many of us of having to choose between a Steam Machine and actually being able to go on a summer holiday this year. So, to see just how bad the financial damage could be, I’ve…

I don’t think it’s an understatement to say that the Bricks and Minifigs controversy has set the community on fire. Actually, a better description might be “poured gasoline over the whole lot before taking a flamethrower to what’s left.” Usually, fans are kept busy chatting over new kits or the best Lego sets. Now, they’re embroiled in discussions about whether a company stole a man’s $200,000 Lego Star Wars collection via a YouTuber’s documentary that started as a stunt-filled investigation and has ended in an international run from the law involving Utah State Police and the Mormon church.The Bricks and…
Our Summer Game Fest 2026 liveblog is covering all of the main show’s news and announcements, but fear not if you can’t tune in – our Everything Announced at Summer Game Fest 2026 roundup will help you catch up. Or, for all the Geoff, all at once, just check the Summer Game Fest 2026 tag. Chatter about a potential Guild Wars 3 reveal at today’s Summer Game Fest has picked up following the discovery that a website domain that’d seem to fit the MMORPG and appears to be registered to NC Corporation has been updated today, June 5th. This follows…
The Rust ‘Built Different’ update has just landed, bringing with it the most substantial upgrade to its player models in years. Sporting fresh animations to boot, characters are far more realistic, though I always found their kinetic jank to be part of the Rust experience. Alongside the revamp, Facepunch has brought a new top-tier armor set and a classic assault rifle to the fore. “The old player model has served us well for almost 10 years, but it’s lagged behind the rest of the game for some time,” Facepunch notes in its new update blog. Rust has had its fair share…
When you reach Upper Junon in FF7 Rebirth, you’ll be made to don a Shinra soldier disguise before being wrangled into the military parade.It’s a hefty distraction, but you’ll need to locate all of the Shinra soldiers that are supposed to be a part of the parade – they’re spread around Upper Junon’s streets and shops – and you’ll also need to place them into the correct parade formation.It’s no small task, and if you don’t know what you’re looking for, you could spend ages looking for soldiers, and potentially even get a rubbish performance grade for the parade. Do…
After Sega issued copyright strikes on some supposed Persona 6 leaks, all eyes are on a potential Summer Game Fest reveal. And now, prominent leaker Nate the Hate is claiming that we should be seeing it on Sunday.Over the last few years – after over a decade of not supporting the platform – Atlus and RGG Studio have gotten cozy with Xbox for most of its major reveals. Persona 5 ports, Persona 3 Reload, Persona 4 Revival, and Metaphor ReFantazio were all revealed at Xbox Game Showcase events, and now everyone’s looking to Xbox for more news about Persona. While…
Valve has finally released its Steam Store home page refresh, and it’s all looking very shiny. There’s been a big focus on visual consistency, and the new, larger tiles seem to be a perfect fit for some Steam controller scrolling (Valve, I’m still waiting for my turn, please help a fella out). However, in all of the redecorating, one major algorithmic change could make it harder to find your next indie game binge. “Over the years we’ve introduced new sections and added more ways for you to discover and learn about games,” Valve writes, “and this update aims to make…
I hunt down cheap gaming laptop deals every month, and I’ve noticed a not-so-surprising trend. Well, what do you know? Everything’s more expensive now.I know, groundbreaking.For most of the year, though, we’ve been somewhat buffered in the world of the best gaming laptops. Not by new releases, oh no. But older 2025 machines have stuck to their discounts pretty well, holding the line against the rising costs of new releases. The HP Omen Max 16 offered better value than the new HyperX Omen Max, and the Asus ROG Zephyrus G14’s 2026 price tag flew over the previous generation’s head. Something…
Grab spins and diamonds without subjecting yourself to the fight pits with these new Elemental Magic Arena codes. This gam is a little like Slap Battles, a staple of the Roblox platform, but with magical powers. You choose an element from the lengthy walkway of a lobby, then jump into the open battlefield to pit those powers against the entire server. Calling it a level playing field would be a stretch, but it’s pretty close. Here are the latest Elemental Magic Arena codes: 80KLIKES – three rerolls 50MVISITS – 50 Diamonds If you need a little break after a few…
