One of the main reasons AMD CPUs have proven so popular in recent years the company’s policy to use the same CPU sockets across multiple generations. This has meant that a user could buy a motherboard and CPU one year, then still be able to drop in a newer, faster CPU, four, five, six, or more years later. For instance, AMD AM4 saw support for four generations of CPU, with new CPUs for the platform still available ten years later.

The announcement trailer for Pragmata was released all the way back in June 2020 and reveals a very different Diana, with Capcom then promising to release the game in 2022. As you may have heard, Capcom was a bit late. Pragmata’s had a happy ending after its April 2026 launch, but as the years and delays piled up, the team couldn’t shake a familiar sense of regret after revealing the game so early – or at least director Yonghee Cho couldn’t.We spoke to Cho (and producer Naoto Oyama) about the making of Pragmata, looking all the way back to that…

If you are constantly looking at folk with tattoos and thinking ‘god, I wish I was charismatic and brave enough to get a tattoo – maybe then people would take me seriously/sleep with me more’, please spend a few moments playing Tattoo Removal Simulator, a game of whimsical cosiness and regret. It sees you lasering away people’s unwanted ink, trying to do a clean job without exceeding their pain thresholds, leaving any scars, or deleting any tattoos they’d rather keep hold of. Earnings are spent on wider-angle or more precise laser heads and cosmetic sprays, together with fancier digs for…

Redeem these new Untitled Roblox Boxing codes, and you’ll smack, bang, and wollop your way through the ranks of what could very well be a feasible sport this decade if tech giants ever decide to move away from having their bots pull out glocks or steal moves from the king of pop. Mixing a popular Roblox melee game with the undeniable joy of watching clankers rock and sock each other’s heads into the stratosphere, Untitled Robot Boxing brings clunkiness back into a genre that was frankly getting a little too sophisticated. And with some chill jazz tunes playing over every…

Yes! Yes, I say, because every single game should follow 007 First Light’s lead and force you to choose between seven different colour variants of the same branded timepiece. I’m serious, this is what the industry needs. The time is now. Everyone must pick a watch!

That Jimbo sure is getting about, isn’t he? Last year, Balatro’s starring fool took a dagger to Dying Light 2, and faced off against the legions of the night in Vampire Survivors. I’m starting to think he’s better-traveled than Ben Starr at this point. Well, in Balatro’s latest crossover with Scriptorium: Master of Manuscripts, Jimbo is trading carnage for canvas, and he can now star in his own medieval margin doodles. Scriptorium is a fascinating concept, brought to life by Yaza Games. Here, you can design some amazing medieval artwork using its sprawling asset library, which includes everything you need…
