TARAE: The Unbound - Gameplay Preview Trailer - movie
(hx) 01:22 AM CEST - Aug,30 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)
Publisher KRAFTON and developer Boundary have announced released a five-minute gameplay preview trailer for newly announced Eastern fantasy top-down action RPG TARAE: The Unbound, a top-down action RPG set in an Eastern dark fantasy. TARAE: The Unbound will be available for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam.

GTA 6 Is Hand-Made. Online Can Wait - briefly
(hx) 01:20 AM CEST - Aug,30 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)

Rockstar North co-head Rob Nelson told Kinda Funny there is no generative AI in Grand Theft Auto VI, and no real-money buys in the single-player game.

The New York Times visit put the animation count at well over 600,000, against 55,000 in GTA 5 and 300,000 in Red Dead Redemption 2.

A dedicated Los Angeles team of writers, directors, and producers art-directed NPCs one by one instead of generating crowds.

Aaron Garbut said every room was thought through: who sits where, what they drink, whose photos hang on the wall.

The map is set in Leonida, with Vice City about twice Los Santos and the whole state about three times Red Dead 2.

Take-Two’s Strauss Zelnick had already drawn the same line: generative AI plays no part in building those worlds.

The story mode is dated November 19, 2026 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. There is no PC date.

Rockstar still will not talk about the next GTA Online. Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier says that is deliberate.

Current GTA Online is expected to keep running after launch, which is why some analysts float a separate online drop in 2027.

That 2027–2028 window is a guess, not a Rockstar date.

So the thing that ships in November is the handmade story. The shark-card machine comes later, if it comes at all on that timetable.

UZDoom 5.0 Unleashes 64-Player Hell - briefly
(hx) 08:32 PM CEST - Aug,29 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)
UZDoom 5.0.0 landed on GitHub on August 28.

The official account first linked the old 4.14.3 tag, then confirmed the 5.0 build is the one to grab.

This GZDoom fork adds IQM bone control, better gamepads with haptics, and a rebuilt netgame lobby.

Multiplayer now defaults to packet-server mode and caps at 64 players.

The changelog also flags security fixes that matter if you are still on an older build.

You still need original Doom IWADs; this is a community source port, not an id remaster.

UZDOOM 5.0 IS FINALLY HERE!

OpenTS Rebuilds Tiberian Sun for Modern PCs - briefly
(hx) 08:10 PM CEST - Aug,29 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)
OpenTS 0.1.0 is a community rebuild of Westwood’s Tiberian Sun engine, released August 27. It is not an EA remaster and does not ship the original game files. You drop Game.exe into a Tiberian Sun install from Command & Conquer The Ultimate Collection. GDI, Nod, and Firestorm campaigns, skirmish, and saves have been play-tested; LAN works with lighter testing. The new renderer supports up to 4K and ultrawide instead of the old DirectDraw path. Source and docs live on GitHub; the project is unaffiliated with Electronic Arts.

Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun is back with a modern engine. OpenTS brings the RTS classic to current PCs with 4K, ultrawide, campaigns, skirmish and LAN support. A major rebuild for Westwood’s classic. #OpenTS #TiberianSun #RetroGaming https://t.co/L0K8QZZnPT pic.twitter.com/Ua4vk8ILdP

Viral GPS Demo Drops Zombies on Your Street - demo
(hx`) 01:58 PM CEST - Aug,29 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)

A clip circulating on X shows a phone game that drops zombies onto your real neighborhood map and makes you run to stay alive.

The demo gives a 60-second head start, then a horde of red skulls closes in on GPS.

Players tap skulls to shoot, start with three bullets, and grab crates and hourglasses on the path.

The poster said it was vibe-coded in a weekend with Claude Code, but did not name the maker or post a store link.

The idea is not new: Zombies, Run! has used undead chases to get people moving since 2012.

What is new here is the live-map shooter layer — if the demo is real, the workout is the game.

NASA Targets Nuclear Mars Ship for 2028 - briefly
(hx) 10:02 AM CEST - Aug,29 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)

President Donald Trump said Friday that NASA is working on a nuclear-powered spacecraft aimed at a Mars mission in 2028.

He made the remark at NASA’s Johnson Space Center while honoring the Artemis II crew.

The ship is Space Reactor-1 Freedom, a NASA and Energy Department project first unveiled in March 2026.

NASA’s official mission page targets a late-2028 launch and a 2029 Mars flyby, using a small fission reactor to power electric thrusters.

The uncrewed craft is slated to drop three Ingenuity-class SkyFall helicopters — it is not a crewed landing.

Trump called the vehicle an early piece of a future “American Star fleet,” which is a speech line, not a fleet already built.

Apple TV Hikes Price to $14.99 - briefly
(hx) 09:59 AM CEST - Aug,29 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)
Apple is raising the U.S. monthly price of Apple TV from $12.99 to $14.99, effective immediately for new subscribers as of August 28.

The annual plan climbs from $99 to $119, and the Apple One Individual bundle rises from $19.95 to $21.95.

Existing subscribers will be notified about a month before Apple charges the new rate.

Family and Premier Apple One plans are unchanged this time.

This is the fourth price increase since the service launched at $4.99 a month in 2019.

CS2 Text Chat Is Public Now - briefly
(hx) 08:35 AM CEST - Aug,29 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)
A third-party site, cstracker.gg, is putting Counter-Strike 2 all-chat onto public player pages.

It builds those pages from public Steam data and from match demos it can download and parse.

Dexerto found profiles with more than 2,800 lines across 388 matches, including known streamers and pros.

The site’s FAQ says a match only appears if the demo is still available; Valve match demos are widely treated as lasting about a month, not forever.

This is not a dump of every line ever typed in CS or CS2.

Valve has not issued a statement on the site.

Publisher SEGA and developer RGG Studio have released a 12-minute playthrough of the Gamescom 2026 demo for 50-year action adventure saga STRANGER THAN HEAVEN.

STRANGER THAN HEAVEN is due out for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam and Microsoft Store on January 15, 2027. It will also be available via Game Pass.

Niantic Kept the Map, Sold the Game - briefly
(hx) 10:17 PM CEST - Aug,28 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)
Niantic Spatial says its Large Geospatial Model is trained on more than 30 billion posed real-world images and 300 million user scans.

Much of that ground-level set came from Pokémon Go and Scaniverse players who scanned PokéStops and landmarks for in-game rewards.

In 2025 Niantic sold the games to Scopely and kept the mapping business; Spatial told PC Gamer that Pokémon Go data no longer flows to it after that sale.

In December 2025 Spatial partnered with Vantor (formerly Maxar Intelligence) on camera-based positioning for GPS-denied air and ground vehicles; Vantor holds U.S. government contracts.

Spatial says the Vantor deal does not include sharing the raw player scans - the models were trained on them, the files were not handed over.

No public document proves the photos themselves fly military drones.

Activision Takes Cheat Fight to an Ohio Doorstep - briefly
(hx) 10:06 PM CEST - Aug,28 2026 - Post a comment / read (2)
Call of Duty’s RICOCHET team said it is now targeting cheat makers and sellers in the real world, not just banning players in-game. During last weekend’s Modern Warfare 4 Early Access Beta, Activision said a representative went to Ohio and delivered a cease-and-desist demand in a visit it described as a takedown of Elocarry.

The company also said it has disrupted more than 375 cheat reseller operations, served more than 80 cease-and-desist demands, shut down more than 30 vendors, and is prepared to sue when needed. It reported that the first beta weekend saw lower cheat infection rates, hardware bans that were harder to dodge, faster action, and new detections. Weekend 2 of the open beta starts today, with the full game due October 23. PC players must enable TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot to play.

RICOCHET Anti-Cheat doesn't end when your match does.

Cheat makers operate around the world. So do we. We’re taking the fight directly to cheat sellers.

Last weekend during the Closed Beta, we went to Ohio to takedown Elocarry.

Rockstar Games has released “Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look,” a 27-minute first look at gameplay of Grand Theft Auto VI captured entirely from in-game footage on a base PlayStation 5. Grand Theft Auto VI is due out for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series on November 19.

Watch the footage below. A 13.1 gigabyte direct download is available here.

MW4 Compiles Shaders With the Game Closed - briefly
(hx) 12:11 AM CEST - Aug,28 2026 - Post a comment / read (2)
Activision and Infinity Ward added Shader Preloading to the Modern Warfare 4 PC beta: after an install or update, shaders can compile in the background before you launch the game.

A Windows tray notice can say “Shader Pre-Loading Will Start”; Infinity Ward and Beenox built it and say the load is meant to stay light and can be turned off.

On Battle.net the preload starts by default; on Steam you still compile once on first boot, then later updates can use the background path.

PC player Madness posted that the process `cod26-cod.exe` ran with the game closed and pinned the E-cores of an Intel Core i9-13900KS at 100 percent — that is one machine, not a published spec.

Replies asked for a cap or a toggle so the job does not eat a whole CPU while you work.

The feature is in the beta so the studios can tune it across hardware before the October 23, 2026 launch.

GTA 6 PS5 Build at 30 FPS - briefly
(hx) 12:06 AM CEST - Aug,28 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)

Brazilian creator Davy Jones said Rockstar invited him to Rockstar North in Edinburgh and showed a PlayStation 5 build of GTA 6 with the frame counter sitting at 30 FPS.

Outlets quoting that visit say development lead Rob Nelson told guests the current console builds run at 30 FPS and that a 60 FPS option at launch or later still has to be checked with the tech team.

Rockstar has not published an official frame-rate spec for PS5, PS5 Pro, or Xbox.

A second-hand X post also claimed no first-person camera at launch; that line is not in the Rob Nelson write-ups, so it stays unconfirmed.

Digital Foundry had already argued 60 FPS looks unlikely on current consoles because of CPU load, which is analysis, not a studio announcement.

Until Rockstar posts the modes, 30 FPS is what one invited visitor says he saw on a preview build — not the final store listing.

Game of Thrones: War of Westeros is shaping up to be an impressive RTS, especially for folks that are looking to scratch that base-building fantasy itch.

But for fans that have been hungry for some base-building, PlaySide looks poised to deliver quite the feast.

Hugging Face CEO Clement Delangue said the company is launching Microduck, a 25 cm open-source biped priced at $399 before tax and shipping.

Pollen Robotics, Hugging Face’s Bordeaux robotics team, lists it as a pre-order from August 27, 2026, with first deliveries targeted before Christmas 2026.

The product page says the 15-motor robot can walk, sit and stand, grab with its beak, roller-skate, and get back up after a fall.

It ships with seven trained moves, a camera, LiDAR, two IMUs, and a gamepad.

North America and Europe are the launch markets; four colorways are Cream, Graphite, Lavender, and Sky.

GTA 6 Gets Netflix First Look Today - briefly
(hx) 08:42 AM CEST - Aug,27 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)
Rockstar Games is premiering Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look on Netflix today, August 27, at 3 p.m. ET, with the same video going live on the official Rockstar YouTube channel and GTA VI website six hours later at 9 p.m. ET.

Netflix and Rockstar call it a first-of-its-kind partnership that gives subscribers an early exclusive window before the footage is free to everyone.

The presentation uses in-game PlayStation 5 footage and arrives about two and a half months before the game’s November 19, 2026 launch on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.

Viral claims that the look would be split into three separate episodes with specific runtimes were based on a faked Netflix listing and have been widely debunked.

The complete GTA 6 Extended Look on Netflix is split into three episodes:

Episode 1: 23 minutes and 42 seconds (Documentary)

Episode 2: 24 minutes and 56 seconds (Gameplay)

Episode 3: 17 minutes and 29 seconds (In-game details)

Ubisoft Ships Heroes III Without the Game - briefly
(hx) 09:34 PM CEST - Aug,26 2026 - Post a comment / read (4)

Ubisoft put the original Heroes of Might and Magic III Complete Edition on Steam for $9.99, then shipped a 23.49 KB dummy file.

Buyers who launched Heroes3.exe got a command prompt saying “Dummy executable. Ensure that you are on the right Steam branch.”

The listing is the 1999 game plus Armageddon’s Blade and The Shadow of Death, not the 2027 remake announced at Gamescom.

Steam reviews sank to Mostly Negative until a roughly 770 MB patch landed about 11 hours later.

The official Might & Magic account said the issue was investigated and fixed, and asked players to reinstall.

The store page is now Mixed after that update.

NVIDIA GeForce 616.56 WHQL Driver - tech

NVIDIA has released a new driver for its graphics cards. According to the release notes, the NVIDIA GeForce 616.56 WHQL driver is optimized for STAR WARS Zero Company, Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy, and Hell Let Loose: Vietnam.

This driver also comes with a couple of gaming bugs. To be more precise, DOOM: The Dark Ages and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle: Frame rate will no longer exceed V-SYNC when DLSS Frame Generation 3x or higher is used. Moreover, Outer Worlds will no longer suffer from texture flickering.

The NVIDIA GeForce 616.56 WHQL driver also has some other general bug fixes. For instance, it fixes an issue that could prevent the GameVisual color profiles in ASUS Armory Crate to be applied when using R590 drivers.

Chief Architect will no longer crash on the GeForce RTX 4000 series GPUs. Claude Desktop will no longer be detected as a 3D app. Furthermore, the driver fixes an issue that could cause a driver crash with 32-bit DirectX 12 apps. Plus, Tycho Tracker will be able to create individual OpenCL buffers greater than 2GB.

How to Inspect a CS2 Knife Listing Properly - in-house

Buying a knife in CS2 is rarely spontaneous. If it's an expensive item, a few minutes of inspecting it can save you quite a bit of money. Two knives with the same name can look different, and sometimes cost significantly more just because of the pattern or a beautiful color transition. That's why experienced players don't limit themselves to the item name and price. Before buying, they look at the float of the skin and other things that aren’t always apparent right away. Here’s a list of things to look out for before buying a knife....read a full article

ASUS Unveils 720Hz 1080p OLED at Gamescom - tech
(hx) 11:04 AM CEST - Aug,26 2026 - Post a comment / read (2)

ASUS unveiled the ROG Swift OLED PG259QWS Ace at Gamescom 2026, a 24.5-inch Full HD Tandem WOLED monitor that runs at 720Hz.

The company calls it the fastest OLED monitor it has made; unlike some earlier dual-mode panels that hit 720Hz only at 720p, this one is specified at 1080p.

It uses ASUS TrueBlack Glossy coating, a 0.02ms response time, and a built-in position sensor that shows height, tilt, and swivel on screen.

Display analyst Vincent Teoh, reporting from the show, listed 1,700-nit peak HDR brightness in a 1.5% window and DisplayPort 2.1 UHBR20.

ASUS priced the PG259QWS Ace at $1,099, with sales planned for early Q4, and named it the official monitor of the 2026 PGL CS2 Major.

Two sibling 24.5-inch OLEDs join it: the 560Hz QD-OLED XG259QDPG Ace and the 360Hz XG259QDNS Ace.
