Those who’ve bought the company’s newest cards though, are a little concerned over what they deem to be unnecessarily high temperatures. 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.

In a Twitter thread, developer Derek Yu stated that development was going well but much slower than they had anticipated

In a livestream yesterday, Bungie detailed just how Armour 2.0 will impact on Destiny 2 and introduce a new activity to plan builds around. Here’s a brief recap of what was revealed last night.

By the sound of things, Need for Speed Heat is mixing a celebration of car culture (FORZA HORIZON 4 SENSES TINGLING!) with its trademark racing against the thin blue line, as players will hit the streets during the day to take part in the official Speedhunters Showdown competition where they can earn some scratch to upgrade their rides and then use those vehicles to take on the law.

. Steam’s added a little feature allowing you to tag games you own elsewhere, so they’ll no longer show up in your recommendations. Different to just hiding and ignoring games for perpetuity, the new feature will have Steam still use those games in the recommendation algorithms.

Having a ton of missions is great in Destiny 2, whether it be a quest to fire up one of the forges to create Exotic new death-dealers or dropping onto Nessus to complete Solstice of Heroes objectives. Keeping track of all of those dozens and dozens of pursuits though? That’s messier than Jackson Pollock’s last paint enema explosion. Fortunately, a facelift is on the way!
