PCGamesN Tuesday, September 24, 2024 12:40 PM  Intel Lunar Lake is one of the company's most anticipated CPU launches in recent years, despite it being a laptop-only chip and not an upgrade for desktop gaming PCs. That's because it not only offers greatly reduced power consumption, resulting in much longer laptop battery life than older Intel CPUs, but its GPU is genuinely gaming-capable too. The new CPUs launching today will be finding their way into some of the best gaming laptops with thin and light designs. Laptops with dedicated separate GPUs will still provide the best gaming performance, but if you're looking for a laptop that is portable, will last a long time, and can do a little bit of gaming, there's a new option from Intel in town.

PCGamesN Tuesday, September 24, 2024 10:59 AM  Rumors have already pointed to the forthcoming Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 drawing a lot of power, but the latest speculation is that the new GPU could have not one, but two 16-pin power sockets. When 16-pin cables were first introduced with the 12VHPWR standard, there were multiple reports of the cables catching fire on RTX 4090 graphics cards, leading to 12VHPWR being usurped by the more secure 12V-2x6 power standard, which also has 16 pins. With AMD widely rumored to be focusing on the mid-range market with its forthcoming RDNA 4 GPU, it looks as though Nvidia will have the best graphics card title all sewn up when it eventually launches its flagship Blackwell gaming GPU.

Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Tuesday, September 24, 2024 1:38 PM  A week ago, while belabouring the nuances of Arco, I expressed a wish to play more bullet hell games with time freeze mechanics, the better to savour the intricacy of their projectile patterning.

Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Tuesday, September 24, 2024 12:22 PM  Dead By Daylight developers Behaviour Interactive have announced that they're acquiring Red Hook, the creators of Darkest Dungeon. This is the same Behaviour Interactive who recently laid off a bunch of people, cancelled a game and closed a studio, Midwinter Entertainment, after bagging themselves a bunch of developers (the others are SockMonkey, Codeglue and Fly Studio) over the past two years. Darkest Dungeon is a horror game like DBD, so I guess the acquisition chimes from that perspective. All the same, my snap judgement is "yikes". |

Gameplay details have been revealed for Heihachi Mishima in Tekken 8, along with a release date for the DLC. In addition, Bandai Namco released info about a new stage and a story expansion that will be added to the game at the same time.
In a new gameplay trailer for Heihachi Mishima, we got to see his Tekken 8 moveset as he faces off various opponents. These include two of his lesser sons, Lars and Lee, fellow DLC characters Lidia and Eddy, and finally Jin, who he shares a unique intro with. Finally, Heihachi faces off against Kazuya for the first time since their climactic battle in Tekken 7. Heihachi will be added to the game with the latest update on October 3, 2024. However, players who have purchased the Season pass will get to play him from September 30, 2024.
In a Tekken Talk given shortly after the release of the trailer, we got some deeper gameplay details for Heihachi in Tekken 8. According to director Kohei Ikeda, the designers wanted to emphasis his power and stances. Significant changes to his moveset include a greater emphasis on two stances, Fujin and Raijin.
He also gained a new powerup called Warrior Instinct which can be activated over three rounds to give buffs to his damage output and add more recoverable health. There will also be a new stage within the Heihachi DLC, Genmaji Temple, which features three variants including fall and winter versions.
As well as Heihachi gameplay, Bandai Namco revealed more new content coming to Tekken 8. This includes a story update called Unforgotten Echoes which will feature Eddy, Lidia and Heihachi.
