Activision releases body cam footage of Call of Duty cheat maker being served a cease and desist order: "We're taking the fight directly to cheat sellers"
Call of Duty publisher Activision is severely ratcheting up its years-long campaign against cheaters, publishing actual footage of a cheat maker being served a cease and desist order. The game's main line of defense against cheaters is its kernel level Ricochet anti-cheat system, which is installed at the kernel level of your operating system and loads with the game to detect cheats from a privileged position in your PC's security system. That alone stirred some controversy when it was implemen

GTA 6 at 60fps is "unlikely" on console and will be "genuinely challenging" on PC, tech analysts say
We haven't gotten official word from Rockstar yet on GTA 6's frame rate, but if you're holding out for a 60fps mode, the prognosis is not looking good. A new tech analysis suggests that it would be uniquely challenging for even high-end PCs to run GTA 6 at 60fps – never mind current-gen consoles. That's according to Digital Foundry, which has gone over the footage from GTA 6 extended look with its usual fine-tooth comb. They found that the game appears to be running at a native 1440p on base PS

Fable director "happy to go toe-to-toe" with heavy hitters like Persona and God of War, but GTA 6 is a beast he's "happy to avoid entirely"
GTA 6's November release date caused other video games to part like the Red Sea, huddling together in the slightly safer confines of the months before and after. One such game is the upcoming Fable reboot, and its director feels fine about launching next to other big hitters not called GTA 6.

PlayStation Releases New Official Comment on PS5 Exclusives and PC Ports
PlayStation is changing its marketing and advertising language to reflect its internal decision to stop producing PC/Steam ports of its PS5 games, quietly confirming reports from earlier this year that PlayStation PC ports were discontinued. Not only did most PlayStation games not perform particularly well on PC, but it is also believed that this actively harmed the branding and release of PS5 games (with some fans choosing to "wait" and/or downplaying the importance of PS5 hardware).
