COGconnected: A Sherlock Holmes-like adventure in a Lovecraftian setting sounds like a match made in heaven. Thankfully, it exists in The Sinking City from Frogwares Games.

EB: The SMACH Z is on track to ship to its Kickstarter backers this September, so 1500 PC gamers should be getting their hands on final production units this fall. Pre-orders are also open for September for three different models of the SMACH Z, so if youre interested you can check them out and save 10% on the total cost over at the SMACH website. I would have much preferred to demo a playable unit to give you the best preview I could, but I can say that the team is very passionate about their product, and based on what I got to see and hold I do believe that it can pay off on its promises to allow PC gamers to take their style of gaming experience on the go, albeit with a slight reduction in visuals. The team did say that a playable unit will be at Gamescom, so more details and impressions should be coming out on it this August.

What is the best MMORPG experience on PC? Is it one with spell-slinging and demon-slaying? Working your way through the stars as a miner or a corporate bigwig? Solving ancient conspiracies and fighting Lovecraftian horrors? Maybe it is all of them.
But hey, let’s not get ahead of ourselves. What is an MMO, anyway? Well, those oft used letters represent the words Massively Multiplayer Online, and refer to games where hundreds, if not thousands of players come together in the same world. Online MMOs like World of Warcraft offer new lands for you to live in, exchanging your regular old life for one of adventure, profit, or danger.
It’s dangerous to go alone! That’s why you should team up and play the PC’s .
Here’s our list of the top MMORPG games on the PC, kicking off with a few of the top free PC MMOs. You're sure to find something that will swallow up entire days at a time, be that the most popular MMORPG in the world, or a smaller hidden gem with a dedicated community.

These are the best MMORPGs:

StarCraft is arguably a game about being in as many places at once as possible, but as the game came together it wasn’t at all clear how that was going to happen. Two programmers had opposite ideas of how unit A.I. should behave when the player wasn’t giving orders, and they fought back and forth in the game’s code, according to David L Craddock’s upcoming history of Blizzard, Stay Awhile and Listen: Book II.
Pat Wyatt, a programmer and Blizzard’s vice president of research and development, recalled his tug-of-war with an unnamed team member over A.I. While Wyatt wanted units to behave somewhat autonomously, his interlocutor thought units should only react to player commands.
The crunch was brutal, but it led to a classic. StarCraft II is on our list of the .
"I wanted units to be smarter like they were in WarCraft, and he wanted them to be dumber because he wanted the player to be making the decisions, which provided more tactical advantage to players who were better at manipulating units," Wyatt recalls in Chapter 7 of Craddock’s book.
The two programmers would independently implement their changes, each going in and rewriting the StarCraft code to undo their competitor’s work. Neither was willing to back down, and the constant writing and rewriting of StarCraft’s A.I. system meant more work for both parties.

Not long after Blizzard teased Hero 28 for Overwatch on Twitter, the company revealed that the next character would be an adorable chubby cheeked hamster named Hammond (AKA Wrecking Ball). Along with the big reveal, Blizzard announced that he is available on the Public Test Realm for any PC Overwatch gamers.

Does PC, PS4 and Xbox One crossplay support? No! This is confirmed by the Game Director of Bethesda Game Studios, Todd Howard, in the GameStar interview. The designer legend has also identified a culprit: Sony ! The PlayStation group was "not as helpful as everyone would like it." Bethesda said she wanted the first multiplayer offshoot in the Fallout series with the number 76 crossplay, because cross-platform gaming is "a big trend in the games industry," as Todd Howard explains in an interview.

If you want to create the fastest gaming PC in the world then you want to jam as many graphics cards as you can inside it, right? After all, if it’s good enough for Summit - the most powerful computer ever made, with its 27,648 Nvidia Volta GPUs, - then surely it’s good enough for your home gaming rig too.
But, outside of five figure PC builds for the spoilt rich kids of Mr. and Mrs. Moneybags there are very few multi-GPU PCs around. When the Steam Hardware Survey was still bothering to measure such things, the percentage of PC gamers using more than a single card was buried behind the decimal points of a big fat zero.
And if you want the best single GPU these are the around today.
So is there any life in the future of multi-GPU solutions or are both AMD's CrossFire and Nvidia's SLI relics of a long forgotten past? As ever, it’s a little bit from Box A and a little bit from Box B…
AMD’s CrossFire and Nvidia’s SLI are the bespoke technologies the two graphics card giants used to get their own GPUs playing nicely together in a single system. Originally both technologies demanded the use of a ribbon cable to connect the multiple graphics cards to each other, but while that is most assuredly still the case with Nvidia’s GeForce cards, AMD’s Radeon GPUs are now able to operate without such restrictions and communicate happily over the PCIe 3.0 interface.
