Some minor Warhammer 40k characters can end up being among the most famous, because they capture fans' imaginations through a few personal traits or deeds, and take on a meme life of their own. Tyberos, the Red Wake is one of my favorites - these days he's renowned as one of 40k's biggest badasses, despite only featuring in one novel and a handful of pages in an old rules supplement. Why? Because he's an absolute unit, that's why. Read the rest of the story...

The first time I died in Beyond Citadel, the game treated to me a close-up shot of my character's scantily clad, bisected body lying in a pool of guts and ripped underwear. It turns out you can turn off a lot of the gore and nudity. You can also swaddle yourself in some nice, sturdy, PG-13 body armor. But you're seemingly stuck with a certain base percentage of bulging, softcore gratuitousness in both the character portrait on bottom left, and in the mildly boobulent background art of the world. I'm not sure I can put up with all that, which is a shame, because Beyond Citadel is otherwise a promising, eerie FPS that mixes ideas from 90s shooters in pretty appealing ways.

A known leaker has said that MSI is gearing up to launch an AMD variation of its Claw handhelds, breaking with its tradition up to this point of using Intel CPUs. The possible AMD MSI Claw news comes during CES 2025, where MSI is currently showing the latest updates to its handheld roster. While it didn't make our best handheld gaming PC list first time around, the MSI Claw has been an intriguing device to follow. It was one of the first out the gate using Intel's mobile chips, rather than the often-seen AMD Ryzen 7040 or Z1 chips.

Square Enix has shared the list of features available in the PC version of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, which includes up to 4K resolution and 120 frames per second alongside Nvidia DLSS support. A trailer for the PC version, below, arrived ahead of its January 23 release date and, while it stopped short of specifics, did confirm that Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth will feature improved lighting and enhanced visuals compared to the PlayStation 5 version. Not completely departing from its original platform, however, it does also include support for the DualSense wireless controller and all the additional features it brought. Mouse and keyboard support is available too. Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth will offer three graphics presets (low, medium, and high) though Square Enix said it has "numerous graphics options." This includes the ability to customize the number of background non-player characters appearing on screen. The role-playing game arrived in February 2024 as the second part of the Final Fantasy 7 Remake trilogy. It follows Cloud, Aerith, Tifa and the rest of the party as they leave Midgar and explore an open world and its vibrant towns and cities. The PC version therefore arrives almost a year later as part of Square Enix's push to go multiplatform, though director Naoki Hamaguchi has asked fans to please not make inappropriate mods upon its PC release. In our 9/10 review of the original PS5 version, IGN said: "Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth impressively builds off of what Remake set in motion, both as a best-in-class action-RPG full of exciting challenges and an awe-inspiring recreation of a world that has meant so much to so many for so long."
