didn’t get left out of Mojang’s Minecraft Live presentation this past weekend. The Diablo-style looting RPG has a few updates of its own landing before the end of this year. It’ll be getting another DLC with new enemies and areas and, praise be, multiplayer between folks on different systems.
As readers may know, my lockdown hobby was and is learning to crochet, to the extent that making things out of yarn is now just a thing I do. If you cut me, do I not bleed? No: yards and yards of wool spools out of my veins. Quickly, we must wind it up and pack it back in, or else make a scarf!
My digital game interests and my physical craft interests collide with surprising regularity, though. This is the 21st century, after all, so instead of joining groups that meet in person in church halls, I am in a crochet-specific Discord group as well as subscribed to several different crochet subreddits. And if there is one thing I have learned from them over the last few weeks, it is that people cannot stop making the crewmates from secret murder game Among Us.
Playing a support-class ship in Star Wars: Squadrons might be an uninviting prospect, when the alternative is to pilot a TIE Interceptor or an X-wing. But the TIE Reaper, when kitted out and piloted properly, is likely to be the MVP of any match when all’s said and done. Our best TIE Reaper loadout equips you with everything you need to keep your team alive and wreak havoc on the enemy fleet.
Mojang have announced the next big Minecraft content update, Caves & Cliffs, with a focus on improving holes and heights. They’re overhauling how it generates these geological features while adding new biomes, so we should expect some cavernous caves, watery caves with waterfalls and rivers running through, stalactites and stalactites, a lovely new ‘Lush Cave’ biome full of flora, and a spooky ‘Deep Dark’ biome with a nasty new enemy. The update is not due to launch until next summer, but Mojang showed a few bit of the newness in their Minecraft Live event over the weekend. Oh, and hell yeah it’s adding axolotls.
The TIE Interceptor is the fastest and most agile ship in Star Wars: Squadrons, so it’s no surprise that most players have taken to learning this ship first. But very few players are picking the very best Interceptor loadout available to them. Below I’ll walk you through a startlingly powerful and dangerous Interceptor build and all its components, along with an explanation of how it can be used to consistently reach the top of the scoreboard in any match.
Update: The rumours were true, as EA have officially announced Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered will indeed be coming out on November 6th. Find out more below.>
Next month will be the tenth birthday of Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit. Last month, a leak suggested the game might be getting a remaster. And today, Electronic Arts have a Need For Speed announcement planned. Coincidence? I think not. I definitely think not, actually, because it looks like this new announcement has been leaked early, too. Ahead of EA’s big reveal later today, a new rumour claims that Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered is coming out on November 6th.

As we approach the end of the PC gaming calendar for 2020, here’s a reminder of all those new PC games coming out over the next couple of months. Retooled and updated with all the latest PC game release dates for October, November and December, here are all the confirmed new PC games for the rest of the year as they currently stand.
The Bomber class is possibly the strongest ship type in Star Wars: Squadrons upon release, and the Empire’s heavy TIE Bomber is no exception with its high health pool, extreme damage potential, and power conversion capabilities.
Below you’ll find not only the best TIE Bomber loadout I’ve come across, but quite possibly the strongest loadout in the entire game as of the time of writing. So what are we waiting for? Let’s dive right in!
The Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 is very nearly here. It’s the third [cms-block] GPU that’s being released this year, and we finally know how when it’s releasing and going on sale, as well as much it’s going to cost. Set to deliver faster performance than Nvidia’s previous flagship graphics card for a fraction of the cost, the RTX 3070 could be one of the most interesting GPU releases of recent years, so here’s a quick reminder of everything you need to know about Nvidia’s new Ampere GPU, including its price, specs and release date.
Nvidia have confirmed that the [cms-block] will launch on October 29th, just a day after the planned reveal of AMD’s upcoming [cms-block] GPUs. The RTX 3070 is the third and final graphics card of Nvidia’s currently announced new Ampere family to come out this year, following on from the launch of the [cms-block] and [cms-block] last month. It’s due to deliver RTX 2080 Ti-level speeds for a fraction of the cost, practically guaranteeing that its shelf life is going to be even more short-lived than either of its still sold out Ampere siblings.
