IGN.com - Daily Fix (Video) ·

2024/03/21

In today's Daily Fix: Dragon's Dogma 2 isn't even officially out yet, and players are already planning to kill as many NPC's as they can in the name of a better frame rate. The game is apparently very demanding, even on the beefiest of PC's, with frame rates dipping to 30fps when playing on RTX 4090 cards and modern CPU's. But by killing off non-essential NPC's, players could get a better frame rate as the CPU wouldn't have to devote resources to help render them. Capcom is already working on a

2024/03/18

In today's Daily Fix: Ahead of any official announcement from Sony, the tech specs for the PlayStation 5 Pro have leaked online. To sum it up, the PS5 Pro is more powerful than the PS5, with a faster CPU and GPU, better ray-tracing and upscaling capabilities.

No price has been revealed (but this probably won't be cheap). In other news, a Battlefront modder is

Saber, meanwhile, was able to get out from under the Embracer Group's

In today's Daily Fix:Shawn Leydon, former president and CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment America, has admitted this major weakness in big-budget exclusive games: their exclusivity. Game production budgets have ballooned in recently years, with titles like Marvel's Spider-Man 2 costing Sony around $300 million. Since the game was a PS5 exclusive, Sony needed to sell roughly 7 million copies just to break even. Seems smart to release those types of games on multiple platforms like PC. In other

2024/03/01

In today's Daily Fix:Helldivers 2 is a massive success for developer Arrowhead, and of course lazy devs are trying to capitalize on it by releasing fake versions with the same name on Steam.

And that's not the only game suffering from impersonators; Palworld has its fair share of fakes popping up on Steam, too
