PCGamesN Wednesday, February 7, 2024 11:53 AM  After years of dominance by Intel followed by a more recent battle for supremacy with Samsung, the crown for the biggest silicon chip manufacturer has finally been claimed by industry stalwart TSMC. Having for years been the producer of chip designs by AMD, Apple, Intel, Nvidia, and many other companies, the imaginatively named Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Corporation (TSMC) has produced many of the best gaming CPUs and GPUs for a long time. However, with Intel dominating the broader processor market and Samsung producing masses of mobile and memory chips, it's only now TSMC has finally taken the top spot.

Rockstar's behemoth is over a decade old now, and while this addition is a fun little early taste of what's to come from the long-awaited next Grand Theft Auto game, it's also a welcome reminder of just how far videogames have come as we book our tickets to Vice City.

PCGamesN Wednesday, February 7, 2024 11:44 AM  When is the Paralives release date? This upcoming life sim has been likened to The Sims, and it's easy to see why. With cute outfits, tons of items, an extensive character creator, build mode, and extra features we wish were in The Sims, there's a lot to look forward to. Paralives is an ambitious project, but we already know a fair bit about what's headed to this simulation game. What first started off as a Patreon project by a lone developer in 2019, has developed into a life sim game set to rival the genre. Though the studio does rely on community pledges to keep the game in development, the official website is great at keeping the community up to date with progress and what to expect next.

Roleplaying games can have everything from interplanetary exploration, lightsaber duels, and bloodthirsty vampires to irradiated mutants who need to be beaten with golf clubs, lizards who can talk to cats, and a whole lot of dice rolling if that's your jam.

If you're reading this, it's because you wish to migrate your saved world over from the Game Pass PC client to the Steam version, whether it's to ensure you won't lose your progress or join other Steam users. The good news is that there is a way to do it, and it ensures that all the Pals you've caught and your crafted gear won't be lost.

The crucible to which you and your rag-tag squad will attempt to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. The lovely-looking maps where you're bound to hit a few sick AWP shots, probably. Counter-Strike 2 is a free upgrade to Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, reinventing several important elements that fans know and love, such as CSGO console commands and the CSGO ranks system. While the free PC game retains the same competitive energy, Valve has put a fresh coat of paint on maps and visuals.

PCGamesN Wednesday, February 7, 2024 9:50 AM  How do CS2 skins work? CS2 skins alter the appearance of weapons, gloves, and knives, giving players the chance to show off their library of digital assets. Returning Counter-Strike players were worried that their CSGO skins weren't going to transfer over to CS2, but Valve quelled any fears when it officially announced the game in March 2023. Owning Counter-Strike 2 skins isn't just about making a fashion statement. It's about putting your mark on your implements of death. It's about showing off your expertise, and, occasionally, selling on for a decent profit - maybe just wait for the skin prices to calm down a little before you decide on investing too much.

Nightingale is an upcoming open-world survival game from Inflexion Games, and like similar games in its genre, there's plenty of gathering and building. However, what sets Nightingale apart is the assortment of procedurally generated magical realms and its roguelite card system, supported by a post-apocalyptic gaslamp fantasy story set in a parallel universe. Although Nightingale's early access release has undergone several delays, a new release date has been confirmed - and it's sooner than expected. Meanwhile, the developers have been generous in their information supply, providing us with blog posts, gameplay videos, and even the Nightingale system requirements.

There are currently 79 Genshin Impact characters available, providing you with a wide variety of candidates to construct your dream team. But with so many different weapons, elementals, talents, ascension bonuses, and constellation upgrades, finding your favorites can be challenging. Don't let the placement of the characters on our Genshin Impact tier list deter you from pulling on the next character banner. While base stats and elemental abilities are important, the value of a character also depends on personal playstyle, available weapons and artifacts, and team composition. It doesn't matter if your favorite Genshin Impact character is on one of the lower tiers; you can still make it work with our recommended Genshin Impact builds. Being on a lower tier in the free PC game means that there are better alternatives, or the character needs a very specific build or team to shine.

We can get firmly behind anything with John Carpenter's name on, so imagine our delight when John Carpenter's Toxic Commando, a videogame inspired by '80s horror and action and created by the horror legend himself was revealed during Summer Game Fest 2023. Part FPS game, part zombie game, part nostalgic horror trip, John Carpenter's Toxic Commando (herein referred to as just Toxic Commando) is set in the "near future", while being inspired by the mix of gore, comedy, and action of classic 1980s horror. While you might expect a slick, professional, and deadly team of mercenaries in a modern FPS, ready to take on the latest horror, The Toxic Commandos were the more affordable alternative, so they'll do their best - at your behest - with some buddy-humor and bad singing thrown in for good measure.

PCGamesN Wednesday, February 7, 2024 11:25 AM  Asus has just announced a new gaming mic, the ROG Carnyx, which while on the surface appears to be just a very RGB-filled and angular alternative to more established options, actually includes several notable features. The new Asus option vying for a place on our best gaming mic guide includes a 25mm condenser capsule - the bit that actually captures the sound, which is quite bit larger than the typical 14-17mm size used by the likes of the Logitech G Yeti X and Elgato Wave 3, although the recently announced Xtrfy NGale X also has a 25mm capsule. The bigger the capsule, the generally more sensitive it is, though smaller capsules can be better at picking up higher frequencies so as ever in life, there's a balance.

PCGamesN Wednesday, February 7, 2024 7:16 AM  We thought we had seen the last Intel CPU series based on its aging LGA1700 socket, but recent rumors have suggested we'll be getting one more lineup of chips that will fit into these old motherboards. What's more, the very latest rumor suggests there could be reason to be quite excited for the upcoming Bartlett Lake-S CPU launch, as there could be variants of the chips that ditch E-Cores and use only P-Cores for pure desktop PC power. The new Intel processor rumor hints at the company potentially finding a way to cunningly sneak a few chips onto our best gaming CPU list without the need for a completely brand-new architecture.

Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Wednesday, February 7, 2024 6:58 AM  The latest Counter-Strike 2 update re-introduces Arms Race, a beloved multiplayer mode from Counter-Strike: Global Offensive in which players level up and are handed new guns as they moider each other, with victory going to the player who levels all the way up and performs a final knifekill. I've played many variations of this mode - which was originally a mod, Gun Game - over the years in other games, and it's always a laugh, for the simple reason that it can be tuned to allow less proficient FPS players to catch up with their brethren, by introducing less powerful or harder-to-master weapons at certain levels as "speed bumps". |

I can't remember if it's Aldi or Lidl that do them, but the "Mini Delight" chocolate sticks are also exceptional. Anyway, Armored Core. Or should I say, Exterminator? Yes, there's an Aldi Armored Core that's just opened up in town and it's actually not half bad. It's definitely not Racer good, but I applaud the effort. |

It's done within canon, even! The Condiment King was created for the 90s animated series as a play on those kinds of whimisical, pun-focused villains. He shoots sauce and says things like "You just don't cut the mustard, Batman!". Maybe when you have to put out at least one issue a month, you throw a lot of villain spaghetti at the wall and see what sticks, and once something does you then go about making "guy who has a thing for the calendar" more of a rounded character - a sinister dude with a weird backstory. Or you make him the world's greatest wife guy. |

Three new characters will debut in Honkai Impact 3rd Part 2, and HoYoVerse shared new insight into the Senadina Deepspace Anchor: First Light battlesuit making its debut. It goes over what people can expect from the Sea of Data heroine.
The new trailer begins with Senadina at home, waiting for the Dreamseeker. When she appears, the two dash out to see the outside world. It's then that she's introduced as a "trendy" character who is "enigmatic" and has "Martian aesthetics." She's also described as being someone really lively who can help pull the new characters together. The team also mentioned she's designed to look futuristic, to tie into the sci-fi elements and as though she came from Mars.
As for gameplay, the team noted that due to the secrecy surrounding her that they didn't have much of her background when designing her. From what they did know, they decided to make her yoyo her signature weapon. The team also mentioned it took over half a year to put together the Honkai Impact 3rd Senadina Deepspace Anchor: First Light battlesuit and included a yoyo expert to consult and put on a performance to be used in the game.
As a reminder, other new characters joining in Part 2 include Erdos Helia and Coralie 6626 Planck. People can get a Coralie character card, recommended weapon, and stigma set for playing once 7.3 launches.
Honkai Impact 3rd is available for the PC and mobile devices, and the Part 2 version 7.3 release date is February 29, 2024.

Red XIII stands next to the petrified body of his father, and Aerith is pictured kneeling and praying to the lifestream. Each one of these images is based on an original piece of key art from the PlayStation release.
The tweet featuring Aerith's art also contains the message "The world will be saved, but will you," further teasing theories about what her fate in the remake will be.
You can get a look at the new FFVII Rebirth key art of Red XIII, Vincent, Aerith, and Cid in the gallery below:

PC Invasion - FeedDDD Wednesday, February 7, 2024 11:53 AM  It's crunch time again. The end of the Call Of Duty MW3 season is upon us and there are only mere days to level up and complete the Battle Pass. To unlock all the skins, cosmetics, all-important COD points, and other goodies, you need to complete the whole thing and fast. Use XP boosts You've been collecting the darn things for years, and they just sit there in your inventory collecting dust.

Burn through a few XP boosts at the beginning of your sessions to make the most of all the daily challenge boosts, weapon challenges, and weekly challenges. Using them at the beginning of your playtime is always the best, and make sure to focus on them while the XP Boost is active. This will result in leveling up your Battle Pass for MW3 much quicker.

This is just the introduction of a fun minigame present in the full release. Despite finding only one song for it during the Demo, Tifa's Theme, you can still try out this surprisingly challenging minigame. Let me show you how to play the piano for yourself.

Otherwise, type out the game in the search bar, and it'll pop up as a result. Thankfully, it's super easy to download this demo, as once you've got the game's page up, simply click on the 'De... |
