Dirt 5 Update Finally Adds Full Crossplay, Ghost Lap Times, and More Tomorrow May 10, 2021 12:57 EDT Dirt 5 grabbed a lot of attention as the first major racing game on next-gen consoles, but the rush to be available at the launch of the PS5 and XSX means that game shipped without some major features. Thankfully, a couple big fan requests are being added in the game’s latest update, namely, cross-platform matchmaking and ghost lap times! You can get a rundown of all the new content and f...

The latest word on the street is that Microsoft’s new Windows 10X operating system has been put on the back burner for now or maybe cancelled completely. A release date was never really announced, but it had been touted for a while as releasing with the Surface Neo dual-screen tablet in the fall of 2020. That obviously never happened and it looks like the Surface Neo isn’t going to happen either. Maybe this is partly due to poor sales of the Surface Duo?  See our review of the Surface Duo....

"NieR: Automata is one of my favourite games," GPUnity wrote on Steam. "Unfortuna...

(Pocket-lint) - Windows 10 X has died. Yet another version of Windows that we never knew. My issue with this is not that Microsoft has killed it because it realised it wouldnt be a success - such conviction should be applauded - but that its yet another failure to create a lightweight version of Windows. Such an operating system could have been ideal for tablets and other devices like the Surface Pro X in addition to the confirmed and now delayed Surface Neo.  Over the last decade weve also se...

Do it, Satya Microsoft’s eye-watering $7.5bn acquisition of ZeniMax Media presents industry-altering opportunities, and they go far beyond simply hogging The Elder Scrolls VI or stuffing Game Pass with more bangers than Jimmy Eat World’s Bleed American. Microsoft could create an entire generation of gamers by giving away The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim for free. And then profit from them, obviously. Gaming is changing, and Microsoft is clearly determined to be both instigator and beneficiary. W...

Sun Valley is the future on May 8, 2021, 7:40 Bottom line: For the last few years, Microsoft has been building a competitor to Chrome OS, a lightweight variant of Windows 10 dubbed Windows 10X that could adapt to any modern device form factor. It shouldnt surprise anyone that it wont see the light of day, and it also means the Redmond company can focus on making Windows 10 better instead. Microsofts Windows 10X project started out as a Chrome OS alternative, with a fresh i...

The dispute sees two multi-billion dollar companies duking it out over in-app purchasing. Epic contends that Apples restrictive policy which carves out 30 percent of most in-app sales for the iPhone maker, are anti-competitive and theref...

When NACON took over the RIG name from Poly it allowed them to strengthen their place in the gaming scene, with movement into the accessories market in style. Today though comes their biggest announcement since that move, with confirmation that the RIG PRO Compact controller, and the RIG 500 and RIG 700 gaming headsets are coming.  We’ll take the RIG Pro Compact as our first source of interest, and that’s because we’ve only just recently been hands-on with the UK/European version of this...
