More than fancy Exotics, more than the most satisfying of pop guns above all else, the primary drive in Destiny 2 has always been about accumulating power. What began with a Light Level in the original Destiny would evolve into the Power Level of Destiny 2, as Guardians would jet around the cosmos looking for all manner of rewards and engrams which would push their overall power ranking up higher and higher.

Here’s a thing though. After years of working on laptops and other devices with lower profiles, I’ve started favouring smaller keyboards …

Season 10 of Fortnite began with the unveiling of the B.R.U.T.E, and its addition has been controversial to say the least.

It’s apparently enough of an issue that AMD’s deemed it necessary to write a blog post about the high temperatures seen in the Radeon RX 5700 cards. In the post, they say that the 110 °C users have experienced when gaming is normal, with those high temps “expected and within spec."

Gamescom kicks off next week. While it doesn’t quite have the general industry hype that E3 tends to have, it’s easily my favourite of the great big Western video game conventions. Open to the public, Gamescom sees more than 360 000 people through its hallowed halls every year, looking to celebrate the latest available and upcoming video games. It’s also hosted in one of my favourite cities on the planet, Cologne. I’ve gone on a bit of a tangent, I suppose.

These days, getting your voice out to the masses is a walk in the park thanks to the virtual soapbox that streaming and video platforms provide. In Borderlands 3, that idea of establishing a viral following of loonies and psychopaths is being turned up to 11, as players won’t be facing a handsome corporate CEO but rather the tag team of murder streamers known as the Calypso Twins.
