Storm, Marvel’s iconic weather-wielding goddess, is undeniably one of the most powerful characters in Marvel lore. Yet, in Marvel Rivals, her abilities leave players scratching their heads. The disparity between her in-game performance and her reputation has sparked debates online, with many players calling for significant buffs—and honestly, they’re not wrong. The conversation kicked off on Reddit when one player hilariously pointed out that Storm, a “literal weather god,” has to reload in-game, while Hawkeye—a mere mortal armed with a bow—somehow has infinite ammo. This comparison set the tone for a growing consensus: Storm feels far weaker than she should be. View the full article
Based on the most recent Genshin Impact 5.3 leaks, players should consider completing a specific World Quest chain before they start tackling the new Natlan-related Archon Quests in the upcoming patch. Version 5.3 is expected to bring forth the final missions in the main story arc in the Nation of Pyro, concluding humanity’s efforts to fight off the continuous incursion from the Abyss. This threat has been looming since before the Traveler’s arrival in Natlan and has shown its might in previous quests, but alongside the Pyro Archon Mavuika in Genshin Impact, players were able to guarantee a temporary victory.

Getting a Domination victory in Civilization 6 is no easy feat. Not only does it mean battling and defeating every other nation on the map, you also have to manage the logistics of your own armies. City defenses need to be maintained. Troops, armored divisions, and reinforcements have to be shuffled across the hex-based landscape turn by weary turn - one of the biggest struggles is the sheer amount of repetitive micromanagement. In Civilization 7, however, this is all going to change. Firaxis has just revealed fresh details about the combat in its upcoming strategy giant, and it sounds like some of the most bothersome issues from Civ 6 - and the entire series, in fact - are finally remedied.

The popular Asus ROG Ally handheld gaming PC is back at its lowest ever price, just before the holidays. This Asus ROG Ally deal is as good as it gets, knocking a huge $150 off Best Buy's retail price for both the AMD Ryzen Z1 and Z1 Extreme versions of this popular Steam Deck rival, with the Z1 version's discounted $349.99 price making it one of the cheapest entry-level gaming handheld devices you can buy now. Both these Asus handhelds may have now been surpassed by newer models, such as the Asus ROG Ally X, but they're still among the best handheld gaming PC devices you can buy.

With a price of nearly $700, the Asus ROG Crosshair X870E Hero is considerably more expensive than similar offerings from the competition, and we'll get straight to the point here - this board won't run your AMD Ryzen CPU faster than a cheaper option. However, thankfully that extra cost does buy you a sackful of extra features that go some way to justifying the massive price tag. If you're after the best gaming motherboard, perhaps for a shiny new Ryzen 7 9800X3D rig, then there are plenty of options out there right now, and you're not just limited to AMD's new 800-series chipsets, but older 600-series motherboards too. The argument for the Asus ROG Crosshair X870E Hero, though, is that if you're planning on keeping your PC for several years, then spending a little more can pay dividends in the long term, especially compared to opting for an old, mid-range B650 board. There are other reasons to go high-end too, such as getting all the bells and whistles you need to build a gaming PC with high-end specs, and maybe even water-cool your PC or overclock its CPU. This board also gives you enough M.2 ports to create an impressively huge and fast storage array using the best gaming SSD options, while also offering enough power from your case's front USB-C port to charge a laptop. It might be overkill for most PC gamers, but if you have serious motherboard needs, and a suitably **** wallet, then it's well worth a look, plus it's fun for the rest of us to dream.

There have been a lot of changes to how players can gain XP in Fortnite Chapter Six, season one, and not everyone is happy about it. Not only that, but players have noticed that it will be virtually impossible for casual players to unlock everything in the Bonus Rewards section of the Fortnite Battle Pass. Grinding XP to complete the Bonus Rewards pages will be tough this season. Screenshot by Dot Esports The regular Battle Pass has 100 rewards to claim, unlocking each reward as you level up. Getting to level 100 isn’t too difficult, usually, but with the recent XP changes and level cap, some players have been finding it more difficult than others. The Bonus Rewards page is even harder to complete as each reward requires players to level up twice to claim it. With 50 rewards on the Bonus Rewards page, it looks like this is going to be a huge grind for casual players. As one Reddit user pointed out, there is a 153-level gap between the ***** skin and her completed style in the Bonus Rewards. This isn’t even counting her super style, which would require an additional 42 levels. View the full article

Intel's gaming laptop chip selection might be about to get very confusing for customers. That's because the company has just announced several new Intel Core 200H chips via its website, and their specs and recent leaks suggest they use the company's aging Raptor Lake architecture, rather than its latest Arrow Lake designs. If this is the case, the reasoning would seem to be Intel addressing the relative lack of gaming performance from its Arrow Lake-based gaming CPUs. Plenty of the best gaming laptop designs are switching to Arrow Lake, but for top-tier performance, its Raptor Lake designs are still faster. Read the rest of the story...

I don't think it's presumptuous to say that, when it arrives, Grand Theft Auto 6 will be the biggest, most popular videogame of all time. Is there any other game that has more anticipation behind it? Half-Life 3? Probably not. The Elder Scrolls 6? I don't think so. Rockstar's upcoming crime epic, which takes us back to Vice City (albeit a reimagined, modern version) is surely destined to break every available record. But when's it actually coming out? GTA 5 is still pulling big numbers and we haven't even gotten the second Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer yet.
