The datamine revealed that Valve is working on a follow up to Half-Life: Alyx, a Source 2 port of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, and a Portal paint game that was scrapped but that may have been resurrected. The datamine also revealed some additional details on the Citadel project....
Honestly, the world of Forspoken looks a bit generic – nothing you’ve seen before if you’ve played a JRPG or open-world game – but thankfully, combat is looking better than it has in the past. The choppy framerates we saw in some past PS5 footage seem to be fixed and everything looks fairly fluid and dynamic. The new trailer also reveals there’s a ranking system, with players assigned grades for each combat encounter, so it seems there will be a fair amount of room to master the game’s systems....

The Galaxy S23 Ultra Camera Can Capture a Lot More Detail While Still Retaining Colors and Saturation However, with the Galaxy S23 Ultra, Samsung is going all out as the phone is said to have a 200-megapixel camera sensor which has not been announced yet, but there is a working model of it already out in the wild. We have seen leaks in the past that suggest that the phone will have a 50-megapixel mode, as well; allowing you to take 50-megapixel RAW shots and go all the way up to 200-megapixel as well but without RAW....
Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra Does Manage to Bend but Refuses to Break The premium build allows the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra to survive all torture tests carried by Zach on his JerryRigEverything YouTube channel. Even the under-display optical fingerprint reader works fine after the specific portion of the display is scratched up badly. With the burn test, where Zach holds a lighter up to the tablet’s panel, the heat permanently damaged the pixels....
Samsung is Giving NFTs to Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4 Preorder Customers. The NFTs Can be Used for DIscounts and Other Valuable Options Sadly, the Galaxy NFT does not have any practical uses, at the moment. However, that is, more or less, how an NFT works. However, Samsung has planned on adding more value to its commemorative NFT, allowing the company to blur the line between the virtual and real world For starters, today, Samsung has announced that it has signed an MOU (memorandum of understanding) with several local companies that will give the owners of Galaxy NFT owners benefits in the real world....
The Galaxy Z Fold 4 to Have the Same Camera System Found on the Galaxy S22 Ultra According to a tip, the Galaxy Z Fold 4 is going to feature a larger 108-megapixel camera that is found in some of the Galaxy S flagships. This is certainly great news for anyone who is looking to upgrade. By comparison, the Galaxy Z Fold 3 still offers a 12-megapixel camera, and although the sensor is excellent thanks to a combination of hardware and software magic, it pales in comparison to the other flagships that Samsung has to offer....

The job ad, which has been posted on the studio’s LinkedIn page as reported on the ResetERA forums, highlights how this will be a AAA production based on one of the publisher’s flagship properties. Sadly, the ab doesn’t provide more information on this game, so we have no idea which Sony property will make its comeback as a live service game. Most recently, Jetpack has been working alongside Sony Interactive (Santa Monica Studio) on God Of War projects, including the port of GOW 2018 to PC/Steam, which it released in January 2022....
Payouts were increased somewhat, but have things really changed that much? Gran Turismo 7 is attracting new heat following its recent 1.15 update, as a large number of the game’s Legend cards have gone up in price. These are mostly cars included in the Hagerty collection, which are dynamically priced by the insurance company based on real-world valuations, which may sound like an interesting realistic touch, until you realize it means the prices of these cars will pretty much constantly go up (classic cars rarely devalue in price)....

Needless to say, the trailer looks stunning. We all know that GTA is under development and soon we will see its official announcement, it is said that the game will be made with a new version of the RAGE Engine and it wants to challenge the Unreal engine 5 directly....

The expansion takes Guild Wars 2 players to the region of Cantha, first introduced in Guild Wars: Factions. The press release highlights the main features and types of content available in End of Dragons. The End of Dragons press release doesn’t include any further news about the Steam launch of Guild Wars 2, though.

The Half-Life Alyx: LEVITATION mod is currently planned for release on the Steam Workshop in early Q3 2022. It’ll be free of charge, of course, and packed with enough content to last between four and five hours for the average player.

This leak comes courtesy of reliable insider HaloHub, who claims to have received screenshots showing various parameters for what they claim is a new version of Warzone. Interestingly, a lot of the things listed, including drop pods and containment zones hint pretty strongly that the new mode will have some sort of battle royale elements. — HaloHub (Follow for Halo News & More) (@HaloHubGG) March 15, 2022 For those unfamiliar, the original Halo 5 version of Warzone was a 24-player mode that tasked players with capturing bases against human or AI opponents on large maps....
