The best processor for PC gaming is on sale for $49 off at Amazon. The AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D is up for grabs for $430 (was $479). Amazon doesn't list an end date for the discount, but considering the popularity of the high-performing 3D V-Cache CPU, it probably won't be available to purchase for $430 for long. The 9800X3D has been one of the best-selling CPUs on Amazon since its release last November. It has earned top-notch reviews from critics and customers alike.

If you’re not scoring goals in EA Sports FC 26, then you’re not going to win any games. In Ultimate Team, you’ll need to have different skills up your sleeves in order to beat your opponent. To that end, we’d recommend varying your shots and learning how to beat the keeper with low driven shots.
How to do low driven shots in FC 26
To perform a low driven shot, you’ll need to press B / Circle to power up your shot and then B / Circle again straight away. This will take some practice as the...

It's not often that every entry in a video game trilogy is satisfying from start to finish, but in the case of Hitman: World of Assassination, that series is the very definition of perfect execution. If you haven't played it yet, all three Hitman games from IO Interactive--the developer of the upcoming James Bond game 007: First Light--are getting a new PS5 collection dubbed the Hitman: World of Assassination Anniversary Edition.

After a month of speculation, it turns out that the big monolith up in the mountains on the Fortnite Battle Royale island is, in fact, a teaser for a major new Daft Punk event that starts on Friday, September 27. It's not a live event that you 'll have to show up for at a specific time, but rather an "experience" through which you'll explore Daft Punk's music in an interactive way, similar to the Soundwave Series that Fortnite used to do.
These are the upcoming Fortnite Daft Punk skins.

Valve has previously implemented security measures on Steam to protect players from malware and bad actors. However, it appears another instance of malware being distributed via a Steam game update has occurred, and it may have had dire consequences for at least one player.
According to G Data, the 2D side-scrolling game BlockBlasters had an update on August 30 that included malware that can steal personal information from any PC that the game is running on. More insidiously, this malware...
Diablo 4 Season 10 will introduce a major change for Necromancers that will make dying far less punishing, allowing them to immediately jump back into the fray at full effectiveness.
Blizzard is finally making it so Necromancer players who die to the demonic hordes will no longer need to manually resummon each of their minions. Instead, minions will automatically be resummoned when a player resurrects.
It's a huge quality-of-life change for Necromancer mains, as it's long been an issue...
This past weekend saw the launch of Fortnite's new battle royale mode, Delulu. A take on Fortnite's familiar formula, the catch here is that you can talk to anyone--whether squaded up or not--thanks to the new proximity chat. While this adds a nice layer of sociality to the game, it's also resulted in an increase in discrimination and harassment, which led to developer Epic Games banning "thousands" of accounts before the weekend closed out.
Delulu is exactly what you think it would be if...
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 features the return of running on walls, opening up more options for vertical traversal in multiplayer matches. Now called "Wall Jumps," the ability to hop off of walls is coming to the new Call of Duty game as part of updates to the Omnimovement system.

Can fans also expect to compete for these items with scalpers who view opportunities like this as an opportunity to make some quick cash? If previous Pokemon events are any indicator, probably.
The Pokemon Company will be celebrating the history of the 30-year-old franchise with this event. "There is such a wonderful...
Yes, Stardew Valley is getting another patch in the future. No, it's not coming anytime soon, and creator Eric "ConcernedApe" Barone doesn't "want too much hype at this point" for update 1.7 after announcing it last month.
Barone responded to fans on X about the 1.7 update for Stardew Valley after they asked for a hint about what might be included with the patch. The game's creator noted "more will come," but at the same time stated, "It's going to be a while before the update is ready."...
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 developers Raven Software and Treyarch have just dropped a huge blog on the upcoming military shooter's new multiplayer offerings. It's pretty explosive in details--literally, as the teams have modified a mechanic to make it way more deadly.
If you've played Black Ops 6, then you should be familiar with the Body Shield. Sneaking up behind your enemy, this mechanic lets you grab them and use their bodies to soak up bullets as you shoot your way through. It's already...

The trailer shows off some of the new traversal systems, too, including wall-jumping, while some of the new scorestreaks, guns, and gadgets are on display here as well. Black Ops 7 is set in the...
A new scientific study has found significant effects of open-world gaming on people's quality of life and emotional well-being.

Writing in the journal JMIR Serious Games, which focuses on games studies research, a team of scientists presents evidence that playing The Legend of...
