[Editor’s note] The blog has been updated to note that GeForce RTX 5080-power expansion also extends to the Install-to-Play library. It’s gonna be May — and the cloud’s in full festival mode.  16 games are joining GeForce NOW this month, including new AAA titles arriving on launch day from Steam, Xbox, PC Game Pass and GOG, so members can stream their PC libraries instantly across almost any device. Headline launches include the highly anticipated Forza Horizon 6 and 007 First Light, both ready to hit the cloud on day one. Meanwhile, the GeForce NOW Ultimate membership dials things up with…

The Most Complex Mod Ever Created – YouTube Watch On The ongoing project to port The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind into Elden Ring—recognised by UNESCO as the eighth wonder of the world*—is one of the more Herculean projects currently bubbling away in the mod scene, and it just got a new update. Long story short: this thing is nuts (complimentary).In a new video, cheekily dedicated to one particular commenter who declared the project would never get done, author InfernoPlus walks us through the progress he’s made on Elden Wind (my title, not his, probably because it sounds like a medieval…

Clarity is not. | Published: May 5, 2026 01:30 pm GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen has left investors confused after a strange interview on CNBC, where he claimed his company’s $56 billion bid for eBay is possible, even though the company does not have the money to back it up. The interview raised more questions than answers, and left many people wondering whether Cohen truly believes his own proposal. According to PC Gamer, GameStop’s offer to acquire eBay is a nonbinding proposal that values the e-commerce platform at $55.5 billion,…

Taming the Iron Eagle in Crimson Desert isn’t quite as tricky as the Phoenix, but it’s definitely costlier. This mechanical bird only eats rare metals, after all, such as Mercury or Platinum, so you’ll have to source either in order to earn its trust. You’ll also have to complete a little puzzle to actually summon said bird.Since Platinum is the easiest way to get its trust, I’ll run through how to get a bar of the stuff to use, plus where to find the puzzle that summons the Iron Eagle so you can tame it.How to tame the Iron Eagle…

As someone who regularly uses their computer as a TV PC, the new Steam Controller looked like the answer to my prayers, finally allowing me to replace both my DualSense controller and mini multimedia keyboard with one device. After spending the past two weeks with Valve’s new controller, I think this device has so much potential, but it’s held back by unintuitive software. What makes the Valve’s controller so appealing is the trackpads, which essentially act as a mouse and keyboard. The trackpads are far more accurate for desktop browsing compared to a joystick, with the left trackpad dedicated to…

The thing about otome visual novels is that they often feel like the idea of falling of love isn’t the only point of the adventure. Many of them incorporate elements from other genres, such as shonen action, comedy, or even horror. Rosemilk Studio’s Salvus: Aries feels like one of those otome games that balances romance with intrigue. While it’s only in early access with a single route available so far, what’s here seems promising and looks quite pretty.  In Salvus: Aries, our story begins after the end. We meet Aina as she’s about to be publicly executed for being a…

Andy Edser, hardware writer (Image credit: Future)This month I’ve been: Testing an extremely heavy keyboard while benchmarking many, many graphics cards. Also, a spot of overclocking. Nothing caught fire. Victory!When I first learned of the Keychron K2 HE Concrete Edition, I was both intrigued and confused. On the one hand, I was aware of the existence of the standard keeb and that we’d given it a massive 88% in our review. The addition of a concrete shell for extra heft? Sounds interesting.On the other hand, the marketing copy is outrageous. Try this on for size: “Each keystroke carries industrial rhythm,…

The MacBook Neo is an impressive machine in many respects. Beyond the fact that it starts at $599 and makes for a very good productivity laptop (although not so much for gaming), the cheap-but-cheerful machine’s popularity appears to have taken even Apple by surprise.In the Q&A section of the company’s recent Q2 2026 earnings call, in which the company reported 17% revenue growth year-over-year, CEO Tim Cook confirmed that the Neo is currently supply-constrained. “We were very bullish on the product before announcing it,” said Cook. “But we undercalled the level of enthusiasm.”The outgoing Apple chief highlighted that the device’s…

Fallout 76 is about the closest we’re likely get to a fully-fledged Fallout MMO—given the genre’s pretty hard to get into nowadays and, well, it’s doing rather well. But there was a time that would’ve seen a massively multiplayer variant of the wasteland competing with Blizzard’s biggest: The ill-fated, legally-tangled Fallout Online.That’s per Matt Firor, in an interview with YouTube channel MinnMax. Firor was the director and founder of ZeniMax, which runs The Elder Scrolls Online, before leaving the studio in 2025 shortly after Microsoft’s bloodbath, which saw his brainchild Project Blackbird cancelled. He also worked on another MMO, Dark…
