These fights will offer even more challenging hunts than normal Tempered monsters. You need a javascript enabled online window to watch videos. Want us to remember this setting for all your devices?

I gather now, having looked at a few wikis, that this is not entirely true. Adventure games, or point-and-clicks, were our collective favourite genre, outside of endless sessions on Worms 2. This is a horror story in the purest sense - it’s gloriously wretched, haunting stuff. In the course of the war, one of the computers becomes sentient and combines with the other two. It then exterminates all of humanity except for five people, who it spends the next hundred-odd years torturing....

Survival won’t be easy though. Ashenfall is home to forgotten secrets and legendary RuneScape monsters, which means there be dragons.

“Nothing has happened yet” with a potential Split Fiction movie. In Hollywood, nothing is ever certain, and that’s something that Fares firmly believes. “I believe it when I see it, because nothing has happened yet,” Fares toldVariety. Sometimes there’s a lot of talks, but nothing happens. So we will see." This doesn’t necessarily mean a Split Fiction movie will happen soon, or ever. Before making games, Fares made movies. He directed the Swedish movies Zozo (2005) and Leo (2007)....

Social embargo is now up - A MINECRAFT MOVIE is easily the worst movie I have seen in years....

The humble composer reflects on his work. One of those is composer Masayoshi Soken. Indeed, these performances werehighlights at the Fan Fest events I attended in 2023. In person, too, he’s a humble and fun-loving interviewee. Notably, Soken was secretly battling cancer during development of the Shadowbringers expansion. You started your career doing a lot of sound design work. How do you think that affected your approach to composition? I think that experience is definitely reflected in everything that I do....

Even mainstream GPUs can handle the game’s cutting-edge effects. Some controls tweaks still require a full game reload, while toggling other options can have strange performance impacts. This leads to a tremendous discontinuity between narrative and gameplay content. Not even a VRR panel will escape the ensuing stutter. The last user experience issue I have concerns unexpected performance. The game is stable, but GPU scaling can be temperamental based on time of day....

Sony and third-party games affected, Xbox works fine. An even delivery of frames is sent to the display, synchronising with the refresh rate of the panel. At 60fps, a new frame is displayed with each new refresh of the screen. At 30fps, a new frame persists for two refreshes. As the name suggests, VRR operates with a variable refresh rate. So, what’s the problem with PlayStation? If you have a VRR-compatible panel, you may have access to a refresh rate monitor....
