GTA Trilogy Remaster Studio Grove Street Bets Its Future on BeastLink, a Multiplayer Kaiju Game With 250K Destructible Objects

Grove Street Games made its name porting some of the biggest titles in gaming history, from the GTA III era to the fairly recent Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition , but its latest project marks a sharp departure from that legacy. BeastLink is the studio's first original IP in over a decade, and it's swinging for the fences with a multiplayer kaiju action game built around one core idea: absolute, city-leveling destruction.

Set in a world where humanity clings to survival in shattered

How To Diagnose and Fix High DPC Latency in Windows

A Windows PC can look seemingly fine and yet still have some nagging issues. Your CPU usage may be low, your GPU may be running well, your gaming performance may be fine, and yet you may still get random audio crackles, mouse hitches, USB audio dropouts, or short system-wide freezes that seem to come out of nowhere.

One possible culprit is high DPC latency . This is one of those technical problems that sounds obscure at first, but once you understand the gist of it, it becomes much

A flowchart titled 'Hard Page Fault' illustrates the process where an app request leads to a missing page in RAM, prompting the OS to retrieve and load the page from SSD storage, causing a delay in app resumption.

Epomaker Glyph Review: Typewriter Vibes With Dual Display

Typewriters have their own pleasant feel, which you can't get in traditional mechanical keyboards. While I am not a big fan of typewriters, they do bring some great appeal through tactile experience that you usually enjoy more than any other typing device. Epomaker targeted exactly that, and brought the Glyph to the mainstream market.

I have been mostly reviewing mechanical and hall effect keyboards, but this one is different. It is surely a mechanical keyboard as well, but it's much different from the conventional mechanical

Intel’s Shot At Fabricating Apple’s A20 Chip For The Base iPhone 18 Collapses As A Credible Leaker Calls The Original Source A ‘Blowhard’

Well, this particular Intel- and Apple iPhone 18-focused rumor proved to be unusually ephemeral, not even managing to survive a full turning of the clock.

A much more credible source has just demolished the prospects of Intel fabricating the A20 chip for Apple's base iPhone 18, terming the source of this rumor "a well-known blowhard."

Just a few hours back, we shared a tip from Weibo-based Fixed-focus digital cameras, who disclosed that "the standard iPhone


UBS doubles its DRAM price forecast as memory demand outpaces supply by 17 points through 2027

Investment bank UBS believes that there is plenty of room for DRAM prices to increase in the third quarter. In a note, the bank outlined that it expects the DRAM memory market to be constrained until the second quarter of 2028. UBS' coverage comes just as market research firm TrendForce outlined that the DRAM market will continue to face severe shortages in the third quarter. However, it added that the impact of high prices on the consumer market and a higher base effect can temper the rate of change in memory

Exynos 2700 To Shy Away From On-Package Memory, With New Design Intends To Double Down On Thermal Performance By Keeping RAM & SoC Separate

Samsung is expected to adopt even higher cooling standards for its upcoming Exynos 2700 , with its efforts exceeding those it made with the Exynos 2600 . According to one rumor, this will happen by changing the packaging of the SoC, where the DRAM module will be kept separate from the silicon. With this change, the Exynos 2700 will tame its thermals better, delivering better sustained performance.

With the Exynos 2600, Samsung employed the use of smaller LPDDR5X RAM

Shuhei Yoshida Trashed Steam Machine’s Speed and Price, Yet Admits He Can’t Stop Enjoying Its Compact Design and Quietness

Former PlayStation Studios president Shuhei Yoshida has tweeted a candid, mixed review of Valve 's brand-new Steam Machine after spending a few hours with the new hardware, offering one of the more prominent early takes from a veteran industry voice.

Yoshida's initial tweet admittedly reads like a checklist of small wins and notable frustrations rather than a wholesale endorsement or dismissal. He flagged that 3D performance felt underwhelming and that the system defaults to 1080p , a detail that struck him as reminiscent of the PS

PlayStation’s Disc Death Was A Long Time in the Making, Ex-Boss Says, as 95% Digital Revenue Sealed the Fate

PlayStation's decision to end production of game discs in 2028 has quickly become one of the most hated decisions ever made by a gaming company , and not only by those that still purchase retail releases, due to the massive implications this decision will have for the entire gaming industry. Chances of the company backtracking, however, are slim, and not only because factories are being repurposed from making discs , but also because this "spreadsheet" decision has been a long time in the making, according to former
