The glitch introduced with the final KB4534310 update meant that certain Windows 7 desktop wallpapers (those which have been stretched) were replaced with a plain black background. As spotted by The Verge, Microsoft admits in a support document: “After installing KB4534310, your desktop wallpaper might display as black when set to Stretch.” The workaround is to stop using the stretch option with the desktop wallpaper, but Microsoft did say it would fix the issue for those “who have purchased Win

A VR version that plonks you by the bar and lets you do a bit more than just play cards sounds very tempting, and apparently Blizzard concurs, to the extent that it developed a Hearthstone VR prototype. “They actually prototyped a VR version of Hearthstone during that time,” Chamberlin said. As cathartic as it would feel after a shitty game, I suspect that flipping tables would be the first thing to go if Hearthstone ever did get a proper VR spin-off. It lets players create their own games, so y

The next-gen console war hasn’t officially started yet but, when it comes to developer interest it seems the PS5 is already beating Xbox Series X – and the Nintendo Switch. That’s according to GDC’s State of the Game Industry 2020 survey, which surveyed 4,000 game developers on a variety of industry topics ahead of GDC 2020 in March. Again, the Xbox Series X is seriously lagging behind, piquing the interest of just 25% of devs. Other interesting trends(Image credit: Microsoft)While the survey se

Lazr is an explosive cyberpunk platformer where you—the titular freelancing android with laser eyes—have to shoot and leap your way through corporate offices and neon streets. For all your futuristic tricks, however, you’re a lo-fi gal at heart, and one of Lazr’s most notable features is its cloth physics. “Lazr’s original concept came from a challenge posed by a fellow programmer to add verlet (dynamic motion simulation) cloth simulations into a platformer,” Campsey explains on the Kickstarter

Epic Games has dropped a little hint teasing that Birds of Prey will be the theme of Fortnite’s next crossover event. Birds of Prey is the upcoming spin-off to Warner Bros. Pictures’ superhero film, Suicide Squad. This hint appeared in the form of a Twitter exchange between the Warner Bros. official account and the Fortnite official account. Warner Bros. tweeted a video of the movie’s cast and Fornite responded with: “See you soon Harley!” Warner Bros. then replied with “Can’t Wait” with a lipst

A new Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic game is reportedly in development at EA, according to a report by Cinelinx (via GamesRadar). According to the report, which cites two independent sources, a new Knights of the Old Republic is in the works. Cinelinx claims that this game would “integrate elements from the first two games in order to bring certain things into the current Star Wars canon”, essentially making the game more a reboot than a remake. In addition, back in 2015 the site reporte

Resident Evil: Resistance, the asymmetric multiplayer spin-off game bundled in with the upcoming Resident Evil 3 Remake, is not a canonical new story in the Resident Evil universe, but rather a “a fun online experience with connections to the RE Universe”, according to Capcom. Fabiano continued to explain that Resistance’s connection to Resident Evil 3 is purely thematic, explaining why Capcom decided to bundle the pair together as one package, rather than releasing the two titles separately.

Doom Eternal has previously promised ray tracing support, and many gamers hoped was it would have this at launch – but this won’t be the case for the highly anticipated shooter, and by the sound of things, it might not get support until quite some way down the line. But in a recent interview with Digital Foundry, posted on YouTube (see below), Stratton gave a different answer when asked about PC features for the game, and specifically ray tracing. However, given that ray tracing is something the
