According to Stieglitz, Diesel was a very dedicated ARK player, particularly during the Survival Evolved era. He played for hundreds of hours, just like a professional ARK player. Diesel, along with his kids and partner, formed a skilled team, mastering all the maps, bugs, and exploits within the game. They had their own established tribe and were highly knowledgeable players.
Okay, so I’ve been reading up on how Crimson Desert is going to run on the PS5 Pro, and it’s looking pretty cool. Basically, we’ll have three graphics options to choose from. If I want super smooth gameplay, I can pick ‘Performance’ mode – it’ll aim for 60 FPS (or even higher if I have a VRR display), with great ray tracing, but it’ll be rendering at 1080p and then upscaling it to 4K. ‘Balanced’ mode is a middle ground – it’ll upscale from 1440p to 4K, still have good ray tracing, and try to hit around 40 FPS (or over 48 with VRR). And if I really want the best possible visuals, there’s ‘Quality’ mode. That one locks the frame rate at 30 FPS, runs at native 4K, and maxes out the ray tracing. The upscaling tech in ‘Performance’ and ‘Balanced’ is handled by Sony’s PSSR, which should look pretty sharp.
It’s clear that Star Trek and Star Wars use the same basic approach to show who’s fighting on the side of good and who’s fighting for the bad guys.
ReVamp is a single-player game where you defend your castle, with a dark, Gothic atmosphere. You play as Dracula, who is endlessly tasked with protecting his throne. From the first trailer, it looks like another great game from the creators of Moonlighter. While we don’t know when it will be released, early details suggest a fun mix of building up your castle, classic tower defense gameplay, and fast-paced combat.
Fans were surprised to see Voltron: Legendary Defender leave Netflix in 2024, especially after its impressive eight-season run. The removal was likely due to licensing agreements, as the show was a collaboration with DreamWorks. Good news for fans, though: a complete DVD box set is now available for pre-order on the official website (link here!). It’s scheduled to ship on March 31st and will be one of the few ways to watch this popular anime remake.
The highly-rated Alan Wake 2, which received a perfect score from Push Square, and the popular Control Ultimate Edition will both receive updates to support PSSR 2.
Here is an overview of the game, via the developers:
The PS5 Pro version of Crimson Desert will let players choose from three graphics modes: Performance, Balanced, and Quality. Performance mode prioritizes smooth gameplay at 60 frames per second (or higher with compatible displays), with high-quality lighting effects and a resolution that starts at 1080p but is scaled up to 4K. Balanced mode targets 40 FPS (or over 48 FPS on certain displays) while scaling 1440p to 4K, also with high-quality lighting. Quality mode delivers the sharpest visuals at native 4K resolution with the best lighting effects, but limits the frame rate to 30 FPS. The image upscaling used in Performance and Balanced modes is done using Sony’s PSSR technology.
A recent update has improved image quality in several games, beginning with Resident Evil Requiem. Players can also expect better visuals in Control Ultimate Edition and Alan Wake 2, with Remedy Entertainment stating that these versions will have clearer, more stable images and smoother motion.
Throughout the Pokémon series, games like Gold & Silver, Black & White, and Scarlet & Violet have featured many different Water-type Pokémon. Some of these designs are beautiful and clearly inspired by aquatic creatures, while others don’t quite capture the essence of water or are simply unappealing. Judging by their appearance alone, it’s clear which Pokémon truly feel like they belong in the water and which ones don’t. Here are five of the best and worst Water-type Pokémon designs from across the games.
