Nvidia have released the latest in an unusually frequent series of GeForce driver hotfixes, with the vast majority of identified issues affecting the newest RTX 50 graphics cards specifically. GeForce Hotfix Display Driver version 576.26 targets various crashing and flickering problems with, among others, Black Myth: Wukong, Forza Horizon 5, and Red Dead Redemption 2 – though it’s the growing regularity of these patch jobs that’s more disquieting than any particular instance of game breakage.

Classic RPG remasters drop from the shadows, surprise GOTY contenders spring from the cracks, but life goes on in the sleepy oxen-powered villages of Manor Lords, the medieval strategy city builder from Slavic Magic and Hooded Horse. Well, not entirely.

Change is afoot in oxen country, as detailed in a round-up of update plans for the game’s first birthday. What did you get for your first birthday? I think I got: the continued affection and/or tolerance of my parents, after a year of being puked and widdled on. Manor Lords is getting: an upkeep system, various visual or UI rejigs, and a boost for the AI’s capabilities that ranges from non-player town-planning to the navigation of fortresses.

I've always preferred building a machine piece by piece, but sometimes even I have to admit a good refurb sale is smarter. Woot's MSI event sale, alongside Woot's Spring gaming sale, feels like it was designed for anyone who wants real gaming hardware without paying real gaming hardware prices. Factory reconditioned means everything's tested, backed, and a lot cheaper than pretending brand new is always better.

Hello reader who is also a reader, and welcome back to Booked For The Week - our regular Sunday chat with a selection of cool industry folks about books! This column is likely slightly late today, but that's simply because I know there's at least one of you rapidly thumbing through the last few pages of your current book so you can share your thoughts. Laziness is, in it's own way, the greatest form of charity. When I do it. Everyone else needs to pull their socks up. God.

This week, it's Magic: The Gathering, Vanguard Exiles, and many, many more's Richard Garfield! Cheers Richard! Mind if we have a nose at your bookshelf?

I'm out of milk! Where's the milk! I thought we had milk! How am I supposed to have my favourite Saturday treat (triple milk milk bowl) without milk! There's nothing on this website about milk at all, it's all video games! That's incredibly useless to me, someone who desperately needs to find milk! I have coconut milk but it's separated so it's more like coconut water with a giant puck of coconut cream stuck to one end of the tin! I can't make a triple milk milk bowl with that! Gahhhhhh! Have any of you seen my milk?

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is one of those rare games I’ll grind out a performance and settings feature for before continuing to play it – yee gads, what a concept – for fun>. It’s more or less exactly what I’d have asked from a modern take, with refreshed visuals and UX improvements bolted directly onto Oblivion’s original, famously bent chassis.

This hybrid engine approach, similar to that of Ninja Gaiden 2 Black, hands off the graphical rendering gubbins to an Unreal Engine 5 layer while keeping all the game logic to a modified version of what is otherwise just the 2006 backend. Preserving, in the process, that janky daftness that accounts for much of Oblivion’s charm, with qualified support for the original’s mods on the side. Still, the performance impact of Oblivion Remastered’s new look is not to be trifled with. Even with DLSS/FSR upscaling support and frame generation, this is a tough one to run smoothly at its highest settings, especially if you deploy the ray tracing effects that (for once) really do enhance and enliven the scenery.

If you've been eyeing Nvidia’s new RTX 5060 Ti but aren’t thrilled about paying markup prices on the secondary market, you're not alone. The latest Blackwell GPU launched with all the fanfare and none of the stock — unless you’re willing to pay over MSRP. The better move right now? Pick up a prebuilt PC that actually uses the card, like the new Skytech Shadow and Archangel desktops, both available on Amazon starting at $1,249.99.
