This potent low profile Logitech G515 Lightspeed TKL keyboard is discounted on both sides of the Atlantic
The Logitech G515 Lightspeed TKL first launched back in mid-2024 as a more affordable alternative to the Swiss brand’s all-conquering G915 TKL. It retained enough of the fundamentals – solid chassis, snappy low-profile switches, reliable wireless connectivity and so on – to make it feel like a strong value proposition at the time, although with current sales, has been made an even better one. I’m currently seeing it for its best prices in a while on both sides of the Atlantic – that’s £95 on Amazon UK and $70 on the Amazon USA – the latter is part of the…
Very few people expected Arc Raiders to do as well as it did. It was the surprise smash hit of 2025, at least in the multiplayer sphere (the Clair Obscur sweep is hard to ignore), and it brought the rather niche extraction shooter genre into the mainstream. Players would hear about Tarkov and the like, but that was always the place covered in shadow – we don’t go there, people in that corner of the internet take things very seriously indeed. Arc Raiders players take things seriously, too, of course, but their brand of a mean face is using prox…
WWE 2K26 makes widespread changes to its Ringside Pass and stamina systems following player criticism
2K Sports has announced widespread changes to the Ringside Pass system and stamina mechanic in WWE 2K26 following criticism of the system from players.Ringside Pass is the game’s new Battle Pass system, designed to replace the standard six DLC packs that have become the standard for the WWE 2K series in recent years.Players have been complaining, however, that it takes too long to clear all 40 tiers of the Ringside Pass, which is done by earning experience called RXP.Most notably, players have pointed out that whereas the DLC packs in previous entries gave them access to new superstars immediately, now…
Crimson Desert is "a cynical amalgamation of borrowed mechanics," says Baldur's Gate 3 publishing lead: "Expect a lot more of this in premium"
Baldur’s Gate 3 publishing director Michael Douse is certain new open-world game Crimson Desert is the software equivalent of the Bride of Frankenstein, just a jumble of parts awkwardly stitched together with the goal of appealing to anyone.Douse explains in a March 28 Twitter thread, “Crimson Desert is fun to play, but it is such a cynical amalgamation of borrowed mechanics. It is Now That’s What I Call Gaming plucked off a gas station shelf, for better & worse.”Developer Pearl Abyss’ Crimson Desert has more gameplay options than a fish has scales. Our four-star GamesRadar+ Crimson Desert review recognizes it’s…
Ancient version of GTA 4 with a cut zombie mode, ferry assets and DJ lines reportedly found at car boot sale
An ancient, work-in-progress version of Rockstar’s Grand Theft Auto IV has reportedly been discovered on an Xbox 360 development kit at a car boot sale, somewhere up Edinburgh way. Dating back to November 2007, about six months before the open world game’s launch, it’s said to contain a cut model for a Liberty City river ferry that once featured in a trailer. While we only have the buyer’s word that the development hardware – “a phat white Xbox 360 XDK with a Rockstar North label on it” – is legit, former Rockstar technical director Obbe Vermeij has, at least, verified…
Persona 6. Kingdom Hearts 4. Gears of War E-Day. There are plenty of games that have me regularly reaching for my clown makeup every time a new showcase rolls around. While we haven’t nearly hit Silksanity levels just yet for the new Gears of War, I have been gnawing at the bars of my cage, impatiently awaiting any sign of life from The Coalition’s upcoming prequel. Well, Cog nation, our prayers are finally being answered, as Xbox is not only featuring E-Day in its freshly-announced June 2026 showcase, but it’s getting its own dedicated direct. You know the meme with…
Being a Balatro-like has nothing to do with being about cards.A Balatro-like is a game that makes 14-hour flights feel like 20 minutes on the bus. A Balatro-like game is one you feel you should probably uninstall from your computer during work hours. It’s the kind of addictive trance that a youth theatre troupe would come to your school to warn you about.From the minute I saw 30 seconds of Raccoin, I knew exactly the effect it would have on me. The premise of the game is simple. You’re playing a coin pusher (or a penny falls if you’re from…
Project Hail Mary directors showed off an "embarrassing" 225-minute cut to fellow filmmakers and received blunt feedback: "We thought everything was charming"
Project Hail Mary directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller say they screened a 225-minute cut of the film… and that the general consensus was to “get it way shorter.”“Our first official test screening went great, but we do a lot of earlier screenings for friends and family and other filmmakers and writers,” Miller told Happy Sad Confused. “This movie was massive. When we finally got the assembly cut down to under four hours long, we subjected some filmmaker friends of ours to a three-hour and 45-minute cut of the movie, which was embarrassing.””You just don’t know how the scenes are…
Crimson Desert's Kliff was originally so Scottish he was named after a MacBeth character, and his actor pushed Pearl Abyss to make him less "stoic"
I know exactly who Kliff, the protagonist of Crimson Desert, is. During my romp through the vast expanse of Pywel, he was a distant tower enthusiast with a side interest in lonely locomotives. Aside from those things, he’s rather bland. Though, the actor who played him has now outlined that throughout the game’s regularly shifting development – which included a name change for its main character – he pushed Pearl Abyss to make the character more than just a stoic line-grumbler.
