AMD could be set to make available its mid-range AMD RX 9000 graphics cards as early as March, according to a new rumor. Historically, gaming GPU manufacturers have tended to launch flagship high-end cards for each new generation first, before launching new mid-range cards several months later, so this quick turnaround from AMD would make for a change from the norm. Part of the reason for this could be that AMD has long been expected not to compete with Nvidia at the high-end of the market, with the RX 9070 XT expected to be the company's flagship next-gen card with specs fast enough to only compete with the RTX 5070 rather than the RTX 5090. That means AMD will be highly reliant on grabbing as much of the mid-range GPU market as possible, so the sooner it can launch its more affordable cards, the higher its chances of enticing buyers.

A trio of new LG OLED gaming monitors is set to be announced next week at the CES 2025 trade show, and not only are all of them larger than 39-inch from corner to corner, but one can even bend from flat to a 900mm (900R) radius curve. The Ultragear GX9 45GX990A is the model in question and its 5K resolution will also provide a huge desktop area to match its massive 45-inch screen size. The three new panels look to be giving LG plenty of firepower to fight for places on our best gaming monitor guide this year, with the company clearly keen to push the limits of screen size, resolution, and shape. The other panels being announced both have a fixed 800R curved, with the the UltraGear 45GX950A also boasting a 45-inch panel and the LG UltraGear 39GX90SA dropping to 39-inches.

Ubisoft’s PC woes have continued into 2025, with the generally much-loved Assassin’s Creed Origins suffering a review-bomb campaign on Steam after a Windows PC update rendered it unplayable for some. In November, Microsoft confirmed that Windows 11 version 24H2 accidentally killed Ubisoft games such as Star Wars Outlaws, Assassin's Creed Valhalla, and more. The issue was so bad that Microsoft updated its support website to reveal it has placed a temporary block on Windows 11 for users with those games installed. "After installing Windows 11, version 24H2, you might encounter issues with some Ubisoft games," Microsoft said at the time. "These games might become unresponsive while starting, loading or during active gameplay. "In some cases, users might receive a ****** screen. The affected games are Assassin's Creed Valhalla, Assassin's Creed Origins, Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Star Wars Outlaws, and Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. "To safeguard your Windows update experience, we have applied a compatibility hold on devices with these games installed. These devices will not be offered to install Windows 11, version 24H2 via the Windows Update release channel." Ubisoft released an update to fix the problem in Star Wars Outlaws and Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, but Microsoft and Ubisoft are both still working to sort out the Assassin's Creed games, and frustration has finally spilled over into Steam user reviews. Negative reviews for Assassin’s Creed Origins ramped up mid-December before hitting a peak as we crossed into 2025, with the game’s recent user review rating dropping to ‘Mixed.’ Overall reviews for the game remain ‘Very Positive.’ Pretty much all the recent negative reviews complain about the Windows update making Assassin’s Creed Origins unplayable. Until a resolution is found, Ubisoft told customers not to manually update to version 24H2 using the Windows 11 Installation Assistant or the media creation tool. If the game stops responding, you’ll need to use Task Manager to close the application. Ubisoft’s Windows problems have hit the company at a particularly troubling time. The company is reportedly in buyout talks with ******** megacorp Tencent after a torrid 2024 in which it closed studios, shut down games, and made mass layoffs. The company’s next big game, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, was delayed into 2025 and Star Wars Outlaws failed to meet sales expectations. Ubisoft’s shares fell to their lowest level in the last decade in September after it made a series of dramatic announcements around the performance of its games. As well as delaying Assassin’s Creed Shadows, Ubisoft announced a return to Steam after a ******* of PC launch exclusivity on the Epic Games Store, with Star Wars Outlaws recently releasing on Valve’s platform.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle puts action in the forefront, but despite how many thrilling moments take center stage, I'm obsessed with everything that's happening behind them. Considering the legendary franchise name that it bears, delivering cinematic excitement is one of The Great Circle's main prerogatives, and major set pieces and showdowns all drum up the requisite level of excitement. Being truly cinematic requires a lot more than just explosive highlights, however, and the way that the game keeps a second fiddle playing might be the more important ingredient in its winning recipe.

I think the last time I read an actual, original Garfield comic was in 1998. Since then, my experience of the character has been one long litany of Gar-memes and in particular, Gorefield memes. For those blissfully unaware, Gorefield is a version of Jim Davis’s otiose, lasagne-loving housecat who has broken his comic strip shackles and become a cosmic abomination. Gorefield's manifestations are many: centipede Gorefields, arachnid Gorefields, Gorefields that extend serpentine necks of unfleshed bone towards a cowering Jon Arbuckle, demanding to be fed in a voice that sounds nothing like Bill Murray, a voice as deep and velvety as the eternal Monday before the Big Bang. In Gar-Type, a free Gorefield fangame from Youtuber and pixel artist LumpyTouch, Garfield has become a planet. The good news is that, unlike many other Gore-variants, this Gorefield is vulnerable to bullets. It falls to ace pilot Jon Starbuckle and his prototype starfighter, Gar-Type D, to save the Earth from lasagnnihilation. Read more View the full article
