Boulies has been around since 2015, but it's only in the last few years that the brand has become well-known for its ergonomic seating options. Boulies makes chairs for gamers and office *****, and sits within the middle range of the market - nowhere near as expensive as Herman Miller, for example, but far higher quality than budget chairs on Amazon. I've previously tried and tested the Boulies Master Series chair, which safely made its way into the best gaming chairs guide down to sheer comfort and quality of materials. But the Boulies NUBI Series is a more subtle, foam-padded option for people who mainly work from home. It's stylish, modern, and designed to offer ergonomic support like the best office chairs from FlexiSpot. But does it do enough to warrant a space in your home? Find out what I loved and didn't about the Boulies NUBI Series chair. Read the rest of the story...

If your XDefiant matches are full of ******* players who love to one-shot everyone and squeeze the fun out of the game, you’re in luck because things are about to change. Ubisoft is making some heavy nerfs to the long-range weapons to offer counter-play. In an X (formerly Twitter) post on May 29, Mark Rubin, executive producer of XDefiant said, “Right now we are adding flinch, so if you are taking hits, you can’t just turn, point, click, and delete people,” while also adding that nerfs should coming in a later patch.

Despite it being tough as nails prior to a quick patch, Helldivers 2 players have successfully completed the game's latest Major Order - the Terminid Supercolony on Meridia, as well as Meridia itself, is no more. While that experimetal Dark Fluid did end up creating a pretty suspicious ****** ***** in the process, it seems Arrowhead might now be trying to lull folks into a false sense of security before potentially deploying their next big foe. If you're out of the loop, the involvement of Dark Fluid in this MO has been fuelling a lot of speculation that it could mark the point when The Illuminate - one of the alien races from the first Helldivers - could make their grand entrance into the Galactic War. That still looks like it could happen, but it hasn't gone down as quickly as some had theorised. First of all, the good news. "Helldivers, thanks to your valiant efforts the Terminid Supercolony on Meridia has been eradicated," Arrowhead tweeted last night in commemoration of operation "Enduring Peace" ending successfully.

Microsoft's summer Xbox presentation is soon upon us, and the Steam backend is pointing towards a big Starfield update. It's June, which means it's Christmas for gamers, if your Christmas is essentially unwrapping a bunch of cut out ads from the newspaper showing a thing you really want, but it's not actually the thing you want because it's not out. There's Summer Game Fest on Friday, a Nintendo Direct is surely set to be announced soon, and this Sunday will see the latest Xbox showcase, which promises to immediately follow-up with a Call of Duty: ****** Ops 6 dedicated presentation. And as spotted by Reddit user JarusinTheStars on the official Starfield subreddit (thanks, TheGamer), there have been quite a few updates on the Bethesda game's backend (via SteamDB), suggesting a big update could be on the way. "It's pointless trying to decipher the changelogs on Steamdb, but one thing is certain from experience: when there are a lot of changes, something big is coming," JarusinTheStars wrote in their Reddit post. " And over the past week (and more generally since May 1st), there have been more changes than ever since launch, sometimes more than 10 per day. For example, there were around 50-60 changes between the February and March updates. And around 100 between the March and May updates. We've almost surpassed that figure in less than a month."

A League of Legends tournament in the Philippines has been marred in controversy after a frontrunning team was disqualified immediately after a match began due to a player breaking a rule regarding emote use. The problem is, they didn’t even emote in the first place—the game did. During a League of Legends tournament held by ********* streamer Suzzysaur, the academy team for West Point Esports was disqualified due to jungler Joshua “Devoured” Escucharo’s unintentional first-blood emote because, according to the tournament rules, the use of emotes would result in an instant ban. However, Devoured didn’t even manually emote, as the champion who lands first blood automatically emotes after scoring the first ***** in the game. View the full article
If you’ve ever found yourself lured by Ahri’s pink-******** spells, mistaking them for a charm only to realize it was a normal Q ability and you’ve just wasted your Flash, rest assured—you’re not the only one. League of Legends‘ visual clarity is an ongoing hotly debated issue, with numerous champion cosmetics causing gameplay clarity issues, resulting in confusion and ambiguous interactions. Players shared their frustrations in a June 2 Reddit post and extensively discussed the severity of this problem. “I still don’t know why Storm Dragon Aurelion Sol has [a] blue ultimate even for the enemies,” one player said. “I get baited by the blue indicator for his ultimate even when he is on the ****** team.” View the full article
AMD has just unveiled its latest lineup of CPUs and has surprised everyone with a completely new naming scheme for some of the chips too. Using the much-anticipated new Zen 5 architecture, AMD has unveiled the new AMD Ryzen 9000 Series CPUs for desktop and AMD Ryzen AI 300 Series CPUs for laptops. We've long been anticipating that these new AMD Zen 5 desktop chips will be likely contenders for a top spot on our best gaming CPU guide but it's of course no guarantee until we test them. However, with a 16% improvement in instructions per clock (IPC), AMD has delivered a decent jump up in raw speed, which should translate to faster gaming performance. Read the rest of the story...

AMD has just unveiled two more brand new gaming CPUs for its now ancient AM4 motherboard range, enabling gamers to get a CPU upgrade on boards that are many years old. The new AMD Ryzen 9 5900 XT and AMD Ryzen 7 5800 XT CPUs, with the latter being the fastest-clocked AM4 processor in its class yet. While AMD's range of AM4 CPUs have long been supplanted on our list of the best gaming CPUs by its speedier AM5 CPUs on, these chips still represent a potential ideal upgrade for those users still holding on to PCs with older AMD motherboards. If you're still running a first or second generation Ryzen CPU and are finally tempted by an upgrade, these - along with other still available AM4 chips - could be just what you need.
