Image: Square Enix I’ve been having these weird thoughts lately... like, should I go back and replay the Kingdom Hearts series or not? Fortunately, Square Enix has made this decision trivial with the announcement that it’s releasing the series on Steam on June 13th. To celebrate, and perhaps destabilize an entire generation of adults for whom the first Kingdom Hearts trailer was a transformative experience (aka, me), a trailer was released with a brand-new recording of Hikaru Utada’s “Simple and Clean.” The trailer was ********* very intelligently, showing snippets of the Kingdom Hearts games in chronological order, suggesting to potential customers (and reminding lapsed fans like me) in what order the games should be played. Steam will have three Kingdom... Continue reading… View the full article

Competition is wonderful and the new AMD Radeon RX 7900 GRE is proof of that. The advent of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 Super has undoubtedly served as a catalyst for AMD to rethink the GRE's regional exclusivity (it was previously only available in China), resulting in the wider launch of a seriously compelling graphics card. There is no shortage of contenders for the title of best graphics card from both AMD and Nvidia right now, with the GRE making for another addition to the already crowded midrange market. I've spent the past few weeks putting this pixel pusher through its paces, and it's been a pleasantly surprising experience, in spite of some expected, albeit mild, weaknesses.
