A fresh Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti leak has suggested that the number of the cards available to actually buy on launch day will be "on the same level as 5080/5090." In other words, they're likely to sell out in a flash and leave gamers waiting potentially weeks or months for fresh stock to arrive. The development goes against a general hope and belief among many people that the smaller GPU dies used in these lower-end cards would allow for a greater volume of card production than for cards based on larger dies. That is, if Nvidia can produce, say, twice as many smaller RTX 5070 Ti dies per silicon wafer than larger RTX 5090 dies, it stands to reason that we could expect twice the number of cards at launch. When it comes to RTX 5070 Ti stock, though, it's looking like this won't be the case. Read the rest of the story...

Pokémon Go developer Niantic is reportedly in talks to sell its video game division to Saudi-owned Scopely for $3.5 billion. As first reported by Bloomberg, the ***** would likely include Pokémon Go, the hit augmented-reality mobile game that sends players out into the real world to collect Pokémon. A source talking to Bloomberg under the promise of anonymity said that while the deal was by no means complete, if approved, it could be confirmed in a matter of weeks. Neither Niantic, Scopely, nor its owner Savvy Games Group were prepared to comment publicly on the reported acquisition. Savvy Games Group acquired Scopely back in April 2023 in a deal worth $4.9 billion that came after the Saudi Arabia government said it wanted to buy "a leading games publisher." Scopely publishes a range of hit mobile titles, most notably The Walking Dead: Road to Survival, Stumble Guys, Marvel Strike Force, and Monopoly Go. Savvy Gaming Group also purchased two of the world's biggest esports companies, ESL and FACEIT, for a total of $1.5 billion in 2022. “Savvy Games Group is one part of our ambitious strategy aiming to make Saudi Arabia the ultimate global hub for the games and esports sector by 2030,” Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz said at the time. “We are harnessing the untapped potential across the esports and games sector to diversify our economy, drive innovation in the sector, and further scale the entertainment and esports competition offerings across the Kingdom.” Vikki Blake.

While Warrior has chiefly been a high-performing class throughout the years in World of Warcraft, players agree one spec is in dire need of some changes. A discussion started by a player in a Feb.18 Reddit thread caused an avalanche of comments agreeing how Arms Warrior has been completely neglected and ignored compared to the two other specs. AWoW players labeled the Arms Warrior specialization as a “relic from the past” and could really use a rework in The War Within to feel fresh again and compete with other specs. View the full article

War Rats is sort of trash, but I love it all the same. Oh, you're giving me a 'ratvolver' and letting me build 'turrats' and there's a dramatic close-up of swinging rat ****** in the intro montage for each stage? Yeah, go on then. It's got the vibes of something made by the guy you knew in secondary school who exclusively drew pictures of cartoon dicks but, like, they were undeniably really good dicks. Absolute ***** prodigy, that guy. Pablo Dickasso. Anyway, I'm probably making it sound like there's a serious ***** to rat ratio here but it's really just those ******. There are some great rat animations though. It's a 2D strategy tug-of-war where you push through stages summoning troops and building structures, and when you do, you're treated to a bunch of rats with hammers piling up construction barriers. When enemy rats fall, either to your own guns or your army of Ratineeers, gangs of regular-sized rats come to nibble on their corpses. They also say things like "Tell my wife…squeak". Also I am 95% sure your Ratvolver fires legally distinct warpstone. They saw me coming, I tell you. Read more View the full article

And its drops are nothing to scoff at, either. Sundered Doctrine has four weapons with fresh and unique perks. To focus your drops, however, you must first complete the Drowning Labyrinth quest for the Sundered Doctrine dungeon, which is time-consuming in itself (but at least you’ll be stocked on drops by the time you do).
