1989 promo shows the ‘Terminator’ NES game that never was
[ad_1] The game hadn’t been in development for long before the CES promo tape was ready, and Sunsoft couldn’t show much more than the splash screen and cutscenes.

AMD brings the fight back to NVIDIA
[ad_1] What matters most, of course, is what’s under the hood: AMD’s RDNA architecture, previously known to enthusiasts as “Navi.” The Radeon 5700 and 5700 XT are built on a 7 nanometer process, which makes them more efficient than the 14nm Vega. This isn’t a first for AMD — the beefy Radeon VII, which remains […]
