Kotaku Tuesday, March 5, 2024 9:15 AM  America was culturally adrift in the 1990s. When the Cold War ended, it took a big piece of the nation's identity with it. So it's not shocking that, absent a real honest-to-goodness war for the first time in half a century, the most materialistic society in history dove headfirst into brand wars. Pizza wars. Burger… |
PCGamesN Tuesday, March 5, 2024 9:36 AM  What are the WWE 2K24 unlockables? While there are many characters and arenas to choose from, not all are not available from the start. They require you to play at least some game modes to completion, whether it's both of the MyRise campaigns or the 40 Years of Wrestlemania Showcase. At least one of the exclusive WWE 2K24 unlockables is hidden behind WWE 2K24 locker codes, which are only available for a limited time. More characters will appear in DLC, but some are hidden as Persona cards in the MyFaction mode. If you want to have the entire fighting game roster available to you, we'll keep an eye out for future giveaways and any added MyFaction cards with unlockable characters, but for now, here is everything you can unlock right now.

PCGamesN Tuesday, March 5, 2024 9:22 AM  Unboxing videos don't come much grander than this. Intel has just taken delivery of a new high numerical aperture extreme ultra violet lithography tool - yes, that very one - at its new CPU fabrication plant being built in Oregon. What's more, it's kindly documented the process for those of us that aren't in the business of buying $380 million bits of machinery. The high-NA EUV lithography tool is a variant of a key part of the process by which all of the best gaming CPUs are manufactured - for both AMD and Intel. It's the stage that projects the circuit layout onto the silicon wafer in order for further etching/deposition processes to then be performed on that silicon, allowing for the multi-billion transistor circuits of modern chips to be created.

PCGamesN Tuesday, March 5, 2024 7:41 AM  We're living in the era of the PC classic comeback. Boomer shooters like Dusk and Turbo Overkill are keeping alive the spirits of Doom and Half-Life. Upcoming 4X games like Ara and Millennia are shots in the arm for the aging Civilization formula. And the beloved XCOM-style of tactical strategy lives on in Classified France '44.

PCGamesN Tuesday, March 5, 2024 7:22 AM  When is the next Steam sale? It feels like one Steam sale has just ended when the next one begins, but with some events offering better discounts than others and genre-specific sales, it's a good idea to keep these dates to hand.

Everyone knows the universal way of improving any game is to add mods to it, and open-world games like Palworld are no exception. Games such as Palworld usually attract modders for multiple reasons, from streamlining different mechanics to make things easier, to adding entirely new creatures, enemies, and environments.

PCGamesN Tuesday, March 5, 2024 7:29 AM  What are Nightingale Sites of Power? These open-world dungeons are semi-optional challenges that contain a wealth of loot, puzzles, and enemies. They also give you the rare opportunity to expand your collection of craftable Realm Cards, so they're well worth the effort it takes for any budding Realmwalker to complete them. Sites of Power are a perfect activity for Nightingale multiplayer, though it's also possible to take them on solo – you can always recruit an NPC if you need an extra hand. Conquering a Site of Power in Nightingale typically bestows the crafting recipe for the relevant Nightingale Realm Card, though you'll have to defeat the Nightingale bosses that guard it first.

PCGamesN Tuesday, March 5, 2024 6:54 AM  It has been a long time coming but the end has finally arrived for Nvidia's GTX lineup of GPUs. With the introduction of its ray tracing-enabled RTX branded GPUs, it was only a matter of time before we'd see the words "Nvidia GTX discontinued" arrive. So it is today with Chinese sources reporting that the latest product roadmap from Nvidia shows no more GTX GPUs on their way. While no Nvidia Geforce GTX cards still remain on our list of the best graphics cards, they have previously occupied many top spots, with the GTX 1080 being one of the most loved and enduring flagship cards Nvidia ever produced and the GTX 1060 being the most popular card on Steam right up until just two years ago, six years after its release.

PCGamesN Tuesday, March 5, 2024 6:36 AM  What are the best League of Legends champions? Metas change, the LoL tier list will fluctuate, and it could be that your favorite champion might not be in a great place right now. While you can win games and climb the ranked ladder with nearly anyone in the lower ranks, the changes that come via champion and item balancing can tip the scales enough that some picks are almost mandatory, regardless of which rank you play in. We've studied the latest LoL patch notes for update 14.3 and found the strongest champions in League of Legends right now. Whether it's due to a buff, kit change, or item change, these picks will give you the best chance to climb the solo queue ranks in the free PC game. If you do want to play something other than what's on this list, keep these champions in mind for your ban, as they all have the potential to go on and dominate Summoner's Rift.

Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Tuesday, March 5, 2024 9:34 AM  Readers with good memories may recall that I was delighted to see Games Incubator and PlayWay moving away from "cleaning abandoned industrial buildings" and towards "magical pets" in their sim games, when they revealed My Horse: Bonded Spirits. I played the prologue to the game today (which is about 40 minutes long) and discovered that you have to level up your horse before you can gallop. Sir: no. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Tuesday, March 5, 2024 7:00 AM Expeditions: A Mudrunner Game review: the dirt's as good as ever, but the science is a bit too clean  As someone who finds games about cars wot go fast only intermittently interesting, I'd expect a game about cars wot go slow to be positively soporific. Speed is, ultimately, the modus operandi of a car. It gets you where you need to go faster than a horse, and doesn't do annoying things like pooing on your patio or dying (also, potentially, on your patio). Surely, then, playing a game about cars moving at the speed of a dead patio horse defeats the point, like playing a first-person shooter where all the guns fire backwards. Expeditions: A Mudrunner Game demonstrates this not to be the case. This bouncy, slimy offroading simulator is the most fun I've had with an imaginary car since 2018's Jalopy. This is partly because it is as much a physics puzzler filled with limitless conundrums as it is a game about driving, but also because, like Jalopy, it envisions the car as something more than a way to boost egos by doing a big circle. |

Your advanced colony ship has veered off course, and you've crashed on a dead, desert planet with no water or fossil resources like oil.

Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Tuesday, March 5, 2024 6:47 AM  After several months on the Steam beta build, Valve last night officially launched an update which revamps the shopping experience and lets you hide your shame. Two universal conveniences: your shopping basket is now shared across devices, so no losing track of things you meant to buy later; and buying gift copies is now less faffy. More conditional: you can now choose to make individual games private, meaning no one will ever see if you own them or are playing them. I won't ask why you might want to hide any particular games. |

Capcom has announced a new series of digital broadcast events where it will reveal details on its upcoming games and post-release content. The Capcom Highlights streams will run on two separate days in March 2024.
The first stream on March 7, 2024, will focus on the upcoming titles Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess and Dragon's Dogma 2. However, just like the Monster Hunter 20th Anniversary program, there will be no new details on Monster Hunter Wilds. Capcom will instead give the spotlight to the HD upgraded release of Monster Hunter Stories while showcasing new content for Monster Hunter Now, Street Fighter 6, and Exoprimal at the second stream on March 11, 2024.
As a side note, the streams will run in between the North American daylight saving changes. As such, the hours will remain the same in the U.S. and Canada, but people residing in other countries and regions will have to take note of the time change. For example in the UK, the first stream will go live at 11 PM GMT, but the second one will run at 10 PM GMT.
Here is the game lineup and schedule for the upcoming Capcom Highlights:
Day 1 - March 7, 2024 - 3 PM PST / 6 PM EST
Day 2 - March 11, 2024 - 3 PM PDT / 6 PM EDT
Capcom Highlights will be broadcast worldwide on March 7 and 11, 2024, in the U.S. time zones.

Calbee announced a collaboration with HoYoVerse, in which Genshin Impact editions of Jagarico will appear in supermarkets and convenience stores. You'll be able to find them from mid-March 2024 until late April 2024.
This appears to be exclusive to Japan, much like the Sushiro one. There's not much information about it at the present. However, according to Calbee's Tweet, this collaboration is specifically for the large-sized cups of the salad-flavored Jagarico. Popular characters will appear on the lid and on the cup itself. The characters are in chibi form, like how they appear as stamps in-game. The characters on the Calbee advert are Nilou, Xiangling, Mona, Kaeya, Kaveh, and Itto.
Genshin Impact Version 4.5 will come out on March 13, 2024. This mid-March 2024 release date for the new patch is likely the reason why Calbee will also put out its Genshin Impact Jagarico snacks from mid-March 2024. Version 4.5 will only have Chiori, a 5-star Geo Sword character, who will be new. Itto, Kazuha, and Neuvillette will have their re-runs as well. New content includes a Character Training Guide, Chronicles Wish Event Wish, and the Alchemical Ascension seasonal event.
Genshin Impact is readily available for the PS4, PS5, Windows PC, and mobile devices.
