Reminded by Jim Hillier’s recent article Microsoft Says TPM Is Worth The Upgrade – But Is It?, it’s only just come to my attention that some games require Secure Boot and TPM 2.0 – Fortnite (for tournaments), Valorant, The Finals and Vanguard (Call of Duty) […]
(Ed note: This article was written a while ago but we feel it is still relevant.) In October 2024, I wrote Tomb Raider Remastered IV- VI Announced and true to form, these new remasters will be released on the 14th February. Yesterday I pre-ordered on
Launched on 16 November 2004, Half-Life 2 is now 20 years old and not only turned the gaming landscape on its head but also changed how we buy games. When I bought the DVD in December 2004, I had no idea I would have to
Following the success of Tomb Raider I-III Remastered, it was announced over the weekend that three more remastered games will be released in February 2025. The games include Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation (1999), Tomb Raider: Chronicles (2000), and Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness
