    Owlcat walks back on super invasive (suspicious) spyware.

    So Owlcat, developer of the Pathfinder series and upcoming Warhammer Rogue Trader, just caused an uproar by implementing what is essentially aggressive spyware without user consent, users pointed out that this was illegal in the EU to do, you apparently have to provide the option to opt out...

    4K is going to screw us all (Kind of)

    So I've been following the entertaining build up to the console launches, buzzwords galore! One thing I don't like is this "4K" meme. I've noticed the fallout of this unfortunate marketing ploy in Call Of Duty: Cold War, the game literally looks like a pimped out 360 game thanks to ridiculous...

    1080p 60fps Champions Club

    It seems 4k TVs are aggressively rolling out, so it's definitely becoming a standard thing. I just don't feel the resource cost of hitting 4k using either PC or console currently is worth the payoff at all, plus I'm too damn blind to tell the difference!

I think they said TNG cost like $1m...

    Games that put a smile on your face?

    There are very rare games out there that just makes you smile, what's yours? For me it has to be Battlefield 4, the odd "Battlefield Moments" just always manages to make me genuinely smile, even laugh!

    1080p 60fps Champions Club

    Hey guys, Anyone else here still rocking 1080p 60fps and happy with it? I've found the hardware required to hit these aren't nearly as expensive as it used to be, I'm pretty content with 1080/60. What would the perfect 1080/60 next gen card be? The 3050 perhaps? All the next gen stuff seem...

    Giveaway Win an epic DOOM Edition HERO Series Gaming Chair from noblechairs and PC Gamer!

    My current chair is a $20 thrift store one, it's wobbly and makes my back ache, I spent all my money on my GPU. :( The chair needs two little speakers that plays Djent metal each time you sit down, lol :D

    Question If reviewers paid for games, would scores be different?

    If law required product reviewers to actually pay for games, subject to audit to avoid exploiting workarounds, would that affect general game review scores and impressions?

    Cyberpunk 2077 is delayed

    Yeah if they're gonna spend this time fitting this game to be ready for next gen consoles, it's going to look freaking insane on PC.

    Cyberpunk 2077 is delayed

    lol, this project has been going for a long time now, do you think the delay is reactionary to feedback maybe? 6 months is quite an extension (For a big team / project like this)!
