 Posted on April 26, 2023  |  2 minutes  |  421 words  |  Patria Henriques

It appears that Sony is using the PAL version of PS1 classics in its PS Plus subscription. The subscription has now launched in Asia, but - as spotted by VGC - some PS1 games are using the PAL (Europe, Australia, New Zealand) version instead of the NTSC (Asia, America). That means they're presented in 50Hz instead of 60Hz, resulting in a lower refresh rate and therefore lower framerates. [Read More]

It sounds like a PlayStation 3 version of The Witcher 2 hangs in the balance - does CD Projekt remake the same adventure again for a new audience, or does it build a new adventure for existing fans? Seven months ago, modestly sized Polish developer CD Projekt Red said it would "love" to do a PS3 version of the celebrated role-playing game. Four months ago, questions about a PS3 decision were batted away because CD Projekt was focused squarely on the Xbox 360 adaptation, due April. [Read More]

20 years and countless games later, Team 17 rediscovers some of the old magic for Worms. Worms WMD is something like the 20th Worms game to have been produced by Team 17 during the past two decades, and I'd run out of fingers and toes to count on before even getting to the spin-offs (Worms Crazy Golf anyone?). Over the past two decades Team17 has tried reinvigorating the series in a variety of ways, including moving the gameplay from 2D to 3D, through to introducing different classes of Worms. [Read More]

Previous page Page 7 of 7 With our benchmarks in the books, it's clear that the Radeon RX 6700 XT is undoubtedly a strong graphics card for $479/£419. AMD aimed to follow up the RX 5700 XT with a card that delivers significantly better 1080p and 1440p performance at a $20 lower price point, and they've easily achieved those goals. For anyone on that three to five year upgrade cycle, that'll translate into a big performance uplift against the likes of a GTX 1070 or Vega 56, plus a host of nifty future-looking features like real-time ray tracing, HDMI 2.

Another day, another game-breaking glitch in Call of Duty: Warzone. It wasn't quite the infamous stim glitch, but the end result was similar, as this time players found an exploit that allowed them to create unbreakable gas masks.

In your average game of Warzone, masks are supposed to degrade when you sit outside the ring, eventually breaking so that you start taking damage from the gas (and die). [Read More]
