Sony Interactive Entertainment and AMD dropped a major update to their Project Amethyst collaboration (originally unveiled in December 2024) this past week in a video featuring PlayStation Lead Architect Mark Cerny and AMD SVP and GM of the Computing and Graphics Group Jack Huynh. The duo presented three major new features, Neural Arrays, Radiance Cores, and Universal Compression, which will be coming to future AMD GPUs and consoles like Sony's PlayStation 6.

Almost 30 years later, the game has arrived on PC with some brand new features as the second release of the NEOGEO Premium Selection Before spending some time playing the new KIZUNA ENCOUNTER: SUPER TAG BATTLE release, which made me appreciate the game's unique take […]

The display technology transition from mini-LED to OLED is scheduled to happen late next year when Apple will unveil the M6 MacBook Pro series.

The base 14-inch M6 MacBook Pro has a similar unique identifier to the M5 MacBook Pro, highlighting that it will not feature the OLED upgrade or a design change In a […]

Like many other modern PC releases, Battlefield 6 launched with some issues that prevent players from playing the highly anticipated new entry in EA's FPS series, which works flawlessly on most modern GPUs.

Battlefield 6 may have ditched ray tracing effects in an effort to deliver optimal performance (which the developers definitely achieved, as the game runs as smoothly as butter). However, the game, powered by the latest version of the Frostbite engine, is still quite the visual treat. YouTuber ElAnalistaDeBits has decided to compare the game's maps to their real-life counterparts. In the video embedded below, we can see how the Gibraltar and New York City maps (Iberian Offensive, Empire State, and Manhattan Bridge) stand up to the real locations. Overall, the developers have done an admirable job, to be sure, though […]
