The developers of Nintendo Switch emulator Yuzu entered a surprise settlement with Nintendo on Monday, agreeing to pay the game company $2.4 million in damages and cease development and distribution of the emulator. Now, as a result of that settlement, Citra—a 3DS emulator that shared developers with Yuzu—has also been taken offline.
Fans of Noctua's…umm, fans…have long bemoaned the company's firm stance on colour. The original beige/brown palette is still popular, of course, but when the Austrian company started to offer many of its coolers and fans in black, PC aestheticists were hopeful that white would soon become an option, too. Well, not anymore, as a simple reply to a post on X shows that all development has stopped and has no plans to return to it.
Dough Spectrum One Glossy | 27-inch | 4K | 144Hz | DisplayHDR 600 | IPS | $699.99$499.99 at Amazon (save $200)I've currently got a pair of Spectrum One screens sat on my desk at home, one with this standard glossy coating and the other is the $100 more expensive Gorilla glass version. And, honestly, I don't think it's worth spending the extra as the contrast, colour, and vibrancy of this bright IPS panel is already a big step up over a standard matte coating. The Spectrum One still impresses me every time I boot up my machine, and its peak 750 nit luminance actually makes it a good HDR screen with the extra contrast of the glossy panel. Just don't forget to add a stand if you don't have a spare monitor arm.
The galactic war in Helldivers 2 proceeds apace, and it sure is fun to watch, from memes about the creek to Veld-induced panic, there's a whole lot happening day by day. The current major order to keep Heeth and Angel's Venture safe is going well, but players are starting to notice something strange. They plug in the hours to defend Super Earth, but when they wake up the next morning, all that progress has gone down the drain. What gives?
Stardew Valley's 1.6 update has been in the works for just under a year—I know because I can't stop checking my watch. As the release date (March 19) approaches, developer Eric «ConcernedApe» Barone has teased that the update packs in a lot more than what's been revealed.
Marty O'Donnell has had a long and successful career as a composer, but remains best-known for his near two-decade association with developer Bungie. O'Donnell was audio director and composed the music for all of Bungie's Halo games, with his final project being Destiny before things went badly south between the musician and the studio. Since his firing in 2014 O'Donnell has been involved in various legal actions against his former employer and Microsoft, some of which have gone his way and some… not so much.
Alas, Palworld's nail economy is in shambles as per its latest update. In case you missed that particular patch, nails used to sell for an obscene 160 gold a piece, making them a great way to grind money. That's been fixed, so players have had to turn to simpler labour. Like tilling fields, or setting up an infinite death trap their victims have no hopes of escaping—wait a second.
If you're a Linux gamer and use an AMD Radeon graphics card, you might be aware that there are all kinds of limitations and bugs when trying to run at high resolutions with high refresh rates, when using the HDMI port. AMD's software engineers had been working on a solution to it all, by implementing parts of the HDMI 2.1 specification into the code, but sadly had to shelve the whole project because the HDMI Forum rejected the project.
