Skyrim has been around for quite the time, with many a new edition or various mod upgrades being made available in its 10 plus years on the market. However, we now also have a mod that covers any version of Skyrim that releases even further down the line (which, let’s be honest, will likely happen).The mod in question comes from Nexus Mods user xilamonstrr and brings Skyrim’s big scaly dragons into super sharp focus. I am talking about seeing all the little details, right down to each beast’s scars, in much, much, higher definition. And, while 16k may seem a…
Ubisoft briefly published a 20th October release date for its promising-looking Nintendo Switch sequel Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope. The company has yet to officially trumpet the date, but it was live for a while on Ubisoft’s store (thanks, Gematsu) ahead of today’s Nintendo Direct, which is scheduled for 2pm UK time. Today’s announcement stream is set to feature third-party games for Nintendo Switch – of which Sparks of Hope is a prime example. It seems likely we’ll see this made official then.

Whispers of a Metroid Prime remaster for Switch have been circulating for quite some time, but a new report has claimed Nintendo is finally almost ready to share the fruits of its labour, and will be releasing the long-rumoured game at the end of this year. That’s according to the persistently leaky Jeff Grubb, who shared the news on Giant Bomb’s Game Mess Mornings show, saying he’d been told “pretty definitively” that an updated version of Metroid Prime 1 – what he referred to as Metroid Prime Remastered – was set to be one of Nintendo’s “big holiday games” for…
Following Fall Guys’ successful, if slightly controversial, switch to free-to-play last week, developer Mediatonic has been plugging away to fix any launch week woes, and those continuing efforts have now manifested in a new patch which, among other things, should now enable PS5 players to get into games while in parties.Beyond that headline fix, and tweaks to resolve a seperate bug preventing players from hearing party members in voice chat, Mediatonic’s latest patch notes suggest an update primarily targeting smaller issues across all versions of the game, rather than anything particularly seismic, with other fixes including a range of visual…

The detail comes from a 2003 issue of Nintendo Dream magazine, which popular YouTube channel Did You Know Gaming? has now translated. Zelda series boss Eiji Aounuma was all set to use a theremin as Link’s musical instrument of choice, with each control stick on the GameCube pad set to control each of Link’s hands as he manipulated its volume and pitch.

Valve designer Lawrence Yang has made a public plea to users, asking them not to mod their devices in a bid to increase the Steam Deck’s SSD to house a 2242 M.2 NVMe SSD, rather than the 2230 form factor SSD it comes with as standard.In response to an article reporting one such way of doing this, Yang replied: “Hi, please don’t do this. The charger IC gets very hot and nearby thermal pads should not be moved. In addition, most 2242 m.2 drives draw more power and get hotter than what Deck is designed for.”Yang finished by writing that,…
