Windows 10 and 11 are fast becoming the only operating systems that support gaming‚ and Rockstar is the latest developer to drop support for older versions. This has all come about because Microsoft has stopped providing security updates for Windows 7‚ 8‚ and 8.1‚ leaving them vulnerable and open to attacks. Steam recently pulled support for every Windows OS below 10‚ meaning some of the best PC games can now only be played on the most recent Microsoft operating systems. This move appears to be the catalyst for many other game publishers‚ such as Rockstar‚ also ending support.

Only yesterday Asus updated its warranty T&;Cs to include two years of cover for OLED gaming monitor burn-in‚ having previously not included this sort of cover on its displays. Well‚ now MSI has seen that move and raised Asus a whole extra year‚ slapping a three-year burn-in cover warranty on its latest OLED displays. Despite having some of the characteristics that would make them worthy of listings on our best gaming monitor guide‚ OLED gaming monitors have long had (and still have) one glaring problem‚ which is that they can suffer from burn-in. As such‚ both Asus and MSI joining the likes of LG and Samsung in offering two or three years of cover against this issue is a very welcome development.

I'm not normally given easily to nostalgia‚ and I'm unlikely to be seduced by a game just because it looks and sounds like something I played back in the day. But my word‚ do I long for the return of classic Command and Conquer. The GDI versus NOD. Live-action cutscenes. That Frank Klepacki score.

Command and Conquer might be in hibernation for now‚ but a new RTS‚ available to play right this second thanks to a demo at Steam Next Fest‚ feels like a perfect replacement. Created by the team responsible for Command and Conquer Remastered‚ as well as Star Wars: Empire at War‚ this is the retro real-time strategy game we all need.

As someone who has whiled away many hours in Iron Forge's classic MOBA Smite‚ Smite 2 certainly has my attention. Having come out swinging earlier this year‚ we haven't heard too much since - understandable‚ the game is very much still in its pre-alpha form. So‚ imagine my face when I discovered Vellum‚ a new roguelike multiplayer that channels the third-person perspective of Smite‚ and the upgrade pathways of Slay the Spire. Safe to say the wait for Smite 2 doesn't feel as long anymore.
