Too big for Steam Deck? Remnant 2 and Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart tested

Can Valve’s modest PC handheld handle cutting-edge modern games? Or do these latest PS5 ports push past the limits of Valve’s handheld? Rift Apart in particular is one of themost cutting-edge current-gen titles, but the game is surprisingly scalable. Performance is generally good, with around a 40fps average and the game rarely dipping below 30fps. Unsurprisingly, combat brings the lowest frame-rates, while non-combat locomotion hovering a little below 60fps. Each of these options delivered a consistent 30fps, with only occasional and minor frame-pacing issues....

Make Way offers fishtailing horror across a race track that you build as you go

Merely flustered, mildly askew, as if he had encountered a bug he could not replicate. Down he went - still, somehow, mostly standing upright. Not that Make Way is a game about cards or magicians. But it is a game about gravity and chaos and - in a manner of speaking - falling downstairs. It’s a top-down racer, a genre which is pretty much chaos already. The difference is in Make Way you also make the track that you drive on....

Spoiler warning:the following article discusses endgame details forPikmin 4. Before Pikmin 4, I’d never spent much time trying to make Pikmin’s setting make sense.

Venba review

This is ideal, given the puzzles and story both revolve around food. How is it going? The first scene shows us Venba feeling unwell, lying down on the sofa, looking tired and dishevelled. There’s a puzzle element to the way you cook. She learns that she’s pregnant, and shares the news with her husband. The main story of Venba reminded me of Mira Nair’s movie adaptation of The Namesake. Venba accessibility options Individual sliders for master audio, music and sfx....

AMD 4800S Desktop Kit review: playing PC games on the Xbox Series X CPU

Repurposed Xbox silicon powers a fascinating China-only PC motherboard. AMD recently - and somewhat stealthily - released the 4800S Desktop Kit for Chinese OEMs. The idea that this product even exists is baffling, but there is some logic to it. Not every PS5 or Series X chip that makes it off the production line is functional. There can be imperfections in the silicon that write off the chip - or parts of it....
