AMD just released a new driver without Windows 10 support and without a warning about this incompatibility. Adrenalin Edition 26.6.2 removes your current driver, then can't install the new one and leaves your system in a broken state. It's the driver that was supposed to bring FSR 4.1 to older cards.

AMD have tried to pretend Windows 10 is no longer supported at all. When it was pointed out that it is updated for all users in Europe and for commercial partners, they gave up. The fix is coming later and as of now you can disable the update and install the previous version.

NVIDIA messed up the same way a bit earlier which makes it twice funnier.

Blood of the Dawnwalker RPG developers just announced that RX580 and GTX1060 are now their minimum system requirements.

I haven't heard these names in a while. But what they forgot to say is which target resolution are we talking about, which FPS, and such.

The image is obviously handcrafted but sepia makes it look like AI. Can't stop seeing this.

Since Battlefield Portal is made with Godot Engine, they decided to become a platinum sponsor and support the development.

What a time to be alive!

Your screaming is spelled wrong 😤

Stupid tech takes: Valve said Linus that they can't subsidize the device in any way since they can't guarantee that users will stay on Steam OS and/or buy games...

In the meantime, collectors edition of the game is sold out. Fable may become a huge success despite all the controversies.

The studio behind Memories in Orbit is shutting down. Douze Dixièmes got independent from Focus Entertainment and then failed to gather any funding.

MiO was considered a commercial failure by Focus which leaves me speechless — what were their expectations then?

It's Wednesday, my dudes

You can now download and install SteamOS 3.8 on a custom PC (not the 3rd party rebuild, the real one):

It's primarily focused on handhelds but can work on a broad range of hardware.

Obsession movie earned 400 times over its $750K budget. But it took way more than a year since filming and up until the release. This whole time the main actress Inde Navarrette was unable to find a new role. Dozens of auditions and nothing.

Instead she had to offer dog walking services and do game streaming marathons. And unlike many other actors she did well in competitive games. Unfortunately for her gaming fans, she's now getting new roles instead.

Marathon is getting a PvE mode in July and the new season in September. Items from PvE will stay only for one game, so players will not be able to abuse it against each other.

It's currently №153 by daily active users and №173 by cash flow on Steam.

Unless they will make a miracle, this whole thing is a pure money loss even if they will fire a half of Bungie as it was rumoured.

GTA VI will cost $80 at launch for the basic edition and $100 for the ultimate one. The urge by bankers and investors to push the basic edition to $100 or more was ignored by Take-Two.

Bankers openly stated a few months ago that if Rockstar will push the price higher, the move will legitimise the same piece hike for all other AAA games. Strauss Zelnick and the board didn't believe in $100 and instead reminded that their games will get more in a long run.

The $80 was considered a bottom line by Bank of America but that doesn't justify anything for regular AAA games. Players on average buy discounted games more and more.
