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.

As a Steam Deck game, I already prefer The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered to the original Oblivion, and for reasons mirroring why the Deck itself still beats newer, faster handhelds: the performance might be lower but everything, as Toddy H himself would say, just works>. Spend two miserable minutes trying find a custom controller configuration that makes thumbing through OG Oblivion’s menus even remotely comfortable, and you’ll appreciate all the more how the remaster gels with the Steam Deck immediately.

That said, its 2025-ified visuals do present a relatively distinct challenge. Indulge too enthusiastically in their fancy lighting and hyper-detailed Patrick Stewart facial creases, and the Steam Deck’s hardware is quickly overwhelmed. But, drop the graphics settings to their lowest, and Oblivion Remastered simply looks like bum, to the point of undermining the point of the whole 'Remastered' thing. The solution: a healthy, balanced mix of low and medium settings, which you can find further down in case you don’t want to run your own trial-and-error experiments on how Cyrodiilian bush rendering affects framerates.

If you're looking to jump into high-end PC gaming without torching your wallet, the Alienware Aurora Gaming Desktop (Model ACT1250) is an easy pick right now. Dell just knocked $400 off the top-spec build, bringing it down to $2,499.99 from its original $2,899.99. At that price, this is hands-down the most balanced and performance-packed version of the Aurora lineup. It comes loaded with serious firepower that'll keep you gaming, streaming, and multitasking for years without breaking a sweat thanks to the packed in RTX 5080.

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, I'm delighted to report, is still incredibly stupid. How stupid? This stupid. I first noticed its stupidity in the starting dungeon, where one of the emperor's guards got shunted around floatily trying to contend with a jug I'd placed in his path. It might be even stupider than the original RPG, because it all looks so modern that its mush brain is thrown into sharp contrast.

I'm a lifelong Resi fan but relatively late-coming Capcom devotee, so I find Onimusha 2: Samurai's Destiny's amalgam of more famed series hallmarks fun to think about - sitting as it does at the intersection of Devil May Cry's orb-sucking fighting game combat and Resident Evil's deliberate spatial awareness, fixed camera exploration and puzzles.

But I've also got some second-hand nostalgia for this 2002 action game. I didn't play it myself, although I did spectate snippets at a friend's house. I remember him having fun, although he may have mostly enjoyed boasting about how sword-tough he was in the face of the game's difficulty.

I've just picked up the Anker 24,000mAh 65W Portable Charger for $34.99 in Woot’s charging devices sale, and it's been one of the more practical purchases I've made for my Steam Deck and ROG Ally X. At half off the regular $69.99 price, it's an easy recommendation. It's powerful, compact, and actually delivers the speed these handhelds need without making a scene about it.

Edwin had the lovely idea of increasing everyone's workload this week, by suggesting that we add a bit more meat to the bones of our responses this weekend, given that it's Easter here and we've got Friday and Monday off work. Which means more time to fill with games, in theory!

So! Here's what we're all clicking on this extended, vaguely chocolatey weekend!
