Nvidia’s GeForce NOW cloud streaming exits beta – and it should make Stadia worry

By Geoffrey Tim

Stadia’s just been dealt another kick in the teeth. Nvidia’s officially launched its GeForce Now streaming platform. It’s a similar service in that it allows players to stream games they buy through GeForce now from just about any PC, removing the need for expensive hardware. As with Stadia it’s a tiered service. There’s a free tier that lets you access your games from anywhere, but limits game sessions to just an hour. There’s a $5 per month service that gives you priority access and extended session length, but also uses top tier hardware in the cloud, even enabling advanced features like RTX.

With a launch on PC, Temtem is also the type of game that attracts less than reputable players to its servers. Cheaters are a bit of a blight on the charming pocket monster game, and developer CremaGames has decided that it is having none of that malarkey during the Early Access part of the game’s launch, bringing the full force of the banhammer down on guilty culprits.

Kentucky officials are trying to ban Fortnite from high schools and varsity esports

Many a school in the US of A has a Fortnite league operating, training professional teams for the big leagues and giving students a reason to actually stay behind after the final bell has rung for reasons not related to detention. One curmudgeon who is absolutely incensed at the sheer audacity of having digital shooter games in a school environment instead of regular maniacs with actual guns terrorising the hallways is Kentucky High School Athletic Association (KHSAA) commissioner Julian Tackett, who has made it his life mission to get Fortnite kicked out of schools.

WarCraft 3: Reforged players unhappy with the game can now get an instant refund from Blizzard

Last week should have been a glorious fusion of nostalgia and new fans for Blizzard when they opened the gates and launched WarCraft 3: Reforged, but the aftermath of that project’s release has been abysmal if we’re being polite. With the current build of the game suffering from a bevy of issues that makes it a far cry from what was originally promised and being the new default for WarCraft 3, fans have been revolting at how Reforged has soured their memories of the original RTS classic.
