     Retailers drop Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 price six days after launch

The Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 only came out last week, and it's already being discounted, likely due to a middling reception and presumably poor sales. Nvidia's cheapest RTX 4000 series GPU is getting even cheaper amongst certain European retailers, and it'll be interesting to see if US stores follow suit.

Our Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 review said the pixel pusher is "the most affordable DLSS Frame Generation compatible GPU yet with good ray tracing performance," but that's counterbalanced by "almost as many shortfalls as it has strengths." Judging by this spate of early price slashing, some consumers may feel the same.

     Baldur's Gate 3 crafting explained

Does Baldur's Gate 3 have crafting? RPGs and crafting systems go together like DnD and dice rolls, but Baldur's Gate has historically kept the ability to forge new equipment to a minimum. Consequently, you might be wondering if the latest entry to the series might be more extensive than we've seen in the past – we've got all the answers to help you forge the best weapons, potions, and armor for your character.

The vast majority of Baldur's Gate 3 crafting can only be performed during quests. It's no good crafting armor or weapons that can't be used by your Baldur's Gate 3 race or class, so be sure to double-check you can use their specific type before you forge them. If you've got your heart set on a specific craftable item without the proficiency to use it, don't despair – you might be able to unlock it by completing certain Baldur's Gate 3 feats. All that being said, here's everything you need to know about crafting in Baldur's Gate 3.

     Harry Potter Magic Awakened tier list

What makes the Harry Potter Magic Awakened tier list? Though it depends on what exactly you're looking to see the ranking of, we'll have what you need down below.

As we've said already, Harry Potter Magic Awakened has a lot of moving parts. To make the most of them, you'll want to check out the best Magic Awakened decks to piece together. To make your own, the Magic Awakened cards list is a good place to start whether you're building around your favorite card or trying to find some to pair with your best.

This beautiful summer is in full swing, so what better time to go inside, draw the curtains, and unwind with a weird anthology of spooky indies? Last month, the Haunted PS1 community reunited to release C.H.A.I.N.G.E.D. - a collection of over 30 bizarre shorts, where your choices at the end of one game leads to a different game made by different developers. Each one loosely follows on from the games preceding them, even though they bury past art styles, perspectives, music, and ideas.

There are games about being a weird little guy, and then there are games about being a weird little gal infused with the power of a vengeful demonic sword. Doomblade is both metal and kind of cute, and it's held my interest longer than the average platformer or metroidy castley oh my god do we seriously not have a better word for this yet.

The main thing marking it out, apart from its style, is that instead of stabbing monsters, you attack by hovering the cursor (actually the shimmery face of the sword's spirit) over them and clicking, which launches your little globby shadow man directly at them.
