Nvidia’s new cards have created a stir in the GPU space offering higher performance at a lower price when compared to the predecessors. The entry-level RTX 3060 packs a similar performance to RTX 2080 for a fraction of the price at the time when the cards were released. Since the announcement of the RTX 30 series cards, rumors of an Nvidia RTX 3080 with 20GB VRAM have been circulating given the gap between RTX 3080 10GB and RTX 3090 24GB cards. It seemed quite obvious that NVIDIA would fill this gap and release a card to fill the void.  Very little information has surfaced about the RTX 3080 Ti (or RTX 3080 Super) till now. As spotted by PCGamesN, a leaker named HXL had seen a data entry on the Asus support page listing two models of RTX 3080Ti 20GB cards. Additionally, the leaker had also noticed two entries for RTX 3060Ti 12GB cards.

A Reddit user called Sybekul shared a video, showing a Railway system for the game that was removed from the final version. It looked like an entire railway system was in the works but may have been cut to meet the release date of the game or left incomplete intentionally to make the game’s universe seem more realistic. Although the game has trains, they cannot be ridden by the player. The video clip shows the player following train tracks and entering a large building that appears to be a Railway station. Inside, the building is missing floors, ceiling, walls, and other assets which show that this feature of the game is left incomplete. Before the release, CD Projekt Red had announced that th...

“A few days ago, I was swinging around in Miles Morales when I felt the R2 snap and immediately become looser. It was as if whatever was causing the trigger to "resist" broke, causing it to go back to being a regular, non-adaptive trigger,” writes resetera user EeK9X. The user goes on to say that he has less than 50 hours of playtime on the PS5 and says he has taken good care of the console.  One user on Reddit writes, “Hello All. About one week into Demon's Souls, I just noticed my R2 trigger abruptly started activating under the slightest touch, or even controller movement. Inspecting the outside of the controller, The R2 trigger is now significantly looser than the L2; the slightest jiggle will rattle it in its place. I noticed several posts on Reddit and YouTube with other users experiencing this issue, but no feedback other than Sony seems to charge return shipping to address the issue”. So, it looks like the issue with the DualSense adaptive trigger isn’t an isola...

One of the most anticipated games of 2020, Cyberpunk 2077 has had one of the rockiest launches in gaming history. While the game runs fine on mid to high-end PC’s it is on the consoles where the game offers a lacklustre experience. Cyberpunk 2077 launched on a whopping 9 platforms - PC, PS4, PS4 Pro, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox One X, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, and Google Stadia. The game was quite buggy overall but it was the last-gen consoles, the PS4 and Xbox One which saw the worst version of the game to the point that Sony has removed the game from the PlayStation Store. Those dissatisfied with the game can claim a refund as well.  During the announcement phase of Cyberpunk 2077, it was revealed that the game will offer post-launch content in the form of meaty story DLC and multiplayer. But it looks like gamers will have to wait longer to get their hands on the DLC and the multiplayer.  CDPR CEO Adam Kicinski has said, “At the moment please let us handle the situation, and p...
