The BenQ X3100i has long reigned over the PS5 projector world, but its $2,000+ MSRP has never shifted into the next price bracket. Amazon’s just changed all that, though, dropping the 4K thrower down to its lowest rate yet.The best projector for gaming is now down to $1,799 on these shelves, an impressive $600 discount from its original $2,399 starting position. I’ve been watching this one for a while now, it never drops below $2,199. Not only is this the cheapest the X3100i has been, it’s also $400 off the previous record. Excellent news for anyone building a PS5 setup…
Around the turn of the new year, Fallout: London developers Team FOLON teased plans to drop the second of the brilliantly British Fallout 4 mod’s second DLC in early 2026, assuming no hiccups got in the way of those plans. Sadly, it seems that’s exactly what’s happened, necessitating the “skeletal crew” still working on the mod to push Last Orders beyond a projected April release window.
Valve writer Erik Wolpaw, one of the leading scribes behind Portal and a long-time staple of the developer’s games, has revealed the ways he and several co-workers have been experimenting with generative-AI tools and what they’re capable of. Speaking on the MinnMax podcast, Wolpaw says he believes there’s potential for its use in reactive dialog, or to play the “straight man” to high chaos games like Grand Theft Auto. However, he doesn’t think it’s there yet, and notes he’s “fully against” AI generation being used as a developmental cost-cutting measure. After making his name working on Psychonauts, Wolpaw joined Valve…

One of the great joys about playing last year’s Oblivion Remastered was seeing and hearing all the mid-2000s Bethesda jank and voice-over mistakes still intact. It’s a glitchy, messy game at times, and that’s very distinctly part of the appeal. Todd Howard agrees, and leaving in these bugs and errors was a specific decision for the remaster.”I think there’s a lot of fuzzy judgment calls,” he explains during a roundtable attended by GamesRadar+. “Like, which ones are players gonna go try to do – take that one where you can stand on things – fixing that is so complicated.”There are…

When a game delivers unique vibes, there’s nothing better. Pacific Drive somehow effortlessly manages to create a Stalker or Chernobylite-style atmosphere, with supernatural happenings and survival mechanics, into a driving simulator. It sounds bizarre, and in some ways, it really is, but the blend is so natural that it’s almost confusing how no developer has done this before. After years of major updates and a first expansion that amps up the horror tension, Pacific Drive is better than ever, and best of all, cheaper than ever. Pacific Drive is truly a surprise in almost every conceivable way. Set in the Olympic…
