Cheaters and toxic players beware.
DICE is already getting their banhammer ready for Battlefield 2042. In a new blog post that went up today, the studio laid out a bunch of new anti-toxic player policies and anti-cheat measures that they hope will result in a positive play environment.
Part of DICE's commitment to this whole idea includes the ability to report players through an in-game menu. This has started to become more and more typical for multiplayer games like Battlefield...

New World Might Still be Killing Graphics Cards
This isn't necessarily an issue with the game, but a manufacturing issue or coincidence.
In late July 2021, a beta period for Amazon Games' new MMORPG, New World, caused some graphics cards to die. The lack of a framerate cap was initially blamed for killing a small number of RTX 3090 cards, mainly those from EVGA, but that really didn't make much sense. After all, tons of games can run with uncapped framerates and they don't cause PC hardware to die.

Forza Horizon 5 PC Requirements
Is your PC ready to race around Mexico?
Turn 10 Studios just announced the various hardware you will need to run Forza Horizon 5 on the PC. They offer up some minimum system requirements, recommended specs, and something they're calling "ideal specs." Sadly, Turn 10 did not specify what resolution and framerate they were targeting with any of these tiers, so... that sucks.
In addition to the specs, seen below, Turn 10 also talks a little bit about some of the... -

Amazon Adds Multiple Servers to Meet New World Demand
More servers is more better.
Yesterday, Amazon Games launched their new MMORPG New World to some really eager players. I guess the desire for a new MMO was extra strong because damn did this game ever take off. As we reported yesterday, there were several hundred thousand people stuck in server queues for multiple hours. These were in addition to the some 427,000+ players that were already actually playing at the time.
Part of the problem for New World is the fact that... -

Battlefield 2042 PC Requirements
Time to see if your PC is up to snuff.
DICE, by way of the official Battlefield Twitter account, just revealed the minimum and recommended PC specs you will need for Battlefield 2042. Now, while they do specify that these are the requirements for the open beta, it's not hard to imagine that these will also be very close or identical to the specs you will need for the final game when it launches on November 19.

I know the fanbase has been getting a little, let's just say antsy, with each day that passed by where we did not hear anything.

The Witcher is Getting Kid-Focused Netflix Series
How exactly is that going to work?
Tudum was a recent event hosted by Netflix that was some global fan event thingy. I don't really know, nor do I care. The important takeaway from this event, at least as far as this site is concerned, is the fact that we have some new news concerning The Witcher series, or should I say serieses? I shouldn't, because that's not a word.
During this Tudum event, Netflix showed off a little bit of the second season for The Witcher series,...
