What we’re here to talk about, though, is a different topic entirely.

Hazelight founder and Creative Director Josef Fares had the following to say: Meanwhile, Dj2 Entertainment CEO and Founder Dmitri M.

Well, according to insider Tom Henderson, Overdose is indeed the game Kojima is making with Xbox. Henderson was the original source of the Overdose leak, as he’s apparently laid eyes on some sort of brief teaser, which shows Margaret Qualley’s character making her way through a darkened corridor, eventually leading to a jump scare and the reveal of the title Overdose. The teaser reportedly shows Qualley’s character in third person, but word is, the game itself may be played in first-person....

Unfortunately, meeting that 2022 launch window will no longer be a reality, as developer Best Way announced its delay to sometime in 2023 earlier today. The primary reasoning behind this is to accommodate new features and content, among various other adjustments. Either way, the development team also released a new trailer today, which you can watch below. The conflict in Ukraine is another big contributor to the game’s delay; back in February of this year, Best Way had to help staff and families relocate after the attacks on Ukraine, essentially pausing the game’s development (which wasn’t in their control)....

Your role in Miasma Chronicles? You are Elvis (not that one) with your brother, Diggs. Only Diggs is a giant robot; the developer told me the game will explain how a giant robot becomes the, somehow more charismatic, brother of a young man. As to why the story we’re going to play started, Elvis’ mother left and never returned, abandoning him, but before she did, she left him with a special glove....

Microsoft Azure will use AMD Instinct MI200 GPUs to conduct extensive AI training in the cloud-based platform Forrest Norrod, senior vice president and general manager of data center and embedded solutions at AMD, assures that the next-gen chips are close to five times more efficient than NVIDIA’s top-level A100 GPU. This calculation regards FP64 measures that the company felt were “highly precise.” In FP16 workloads, the gap was primarily narrowed in standard workloads, even though AMD stated the chips were up to 20 percent more instantaneous than the current NVIDIA A100, where the company remains the data center GPU leader....

Some slightly odd choices for landmarks, but as a Winnipegger, I appreciate that they actually paid some attention to the middle and northern parts of the country (most things that focus on Canada ignores anything outside of Montreal, Toronto, and Vancouver).

Released back in 2018, Kingdom Come Deliverance was one of the best-looking, and most hardware-punishing, open-world games at that time. Some might even say that the title remains one of the best-looking recent open-world entries. So how would a heavily-modded version of Warhorse Studios’ story-driven open-world RPG look in 8K resolution running on beefy hardware, complete with ReShade-powered Ray Tracing? Well, as can be seen in this new video from German YouTuber ‘Digital Dreams’, pretty spectacular....

Updated MacBook Pro Will Likely Launch in November, but Apple Will Likely Not Hold a Dedicated Event for These Models Notable Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman surprised subscribers with an early ‘Power On’ newsletter, believing that the new MacBook Pro models armed with the M2 Pro and M2 Max chips could possibly launch in November.
