The feature will allow viewers to rewind a stream by two minutes, Twitch told The Verge. Then they are able to scrub through the time as with any VOD. Plus, a picture-in-picture window will allow viewers to still watch live in addition to the rewind. The feature will be tested with about a quarter of viewers along with two other buttons. One is a Remind Me button to notify a viewer of a stream; the other allows viewers to watch a streamer’s channel trailer, if they have one....

Lemmings: Can You Dig It? explores the legacy of the game with its original creators and its impact on Scottish and UK games culture. Lemmings was first released on the Commodore Amiga in 1991 and has since become iconic. The original game was developed by DMA Design in Dundee, who then went on to create the original Grand Theft Auto. The documentary film was commissioned by Lemmings publisher Exient and directed by video game film producer Richard Wilcox of That Video Company....

Switch has faced widespread complaints around Joy-Con controller drift since its launch in 2017, leading to class action lawsuits, and even EU calls for an investigation into the issue after it received more than 25,000 complaints from numerous countries. Reports were significant enough that Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa apologised for the issue in 2020, which it’s since claimed to have “improved”. More recently, a Kotaku report claimed Nintendo of America recieved “thousands” of faulty Joy-Cons each week at height of drift issues, and now UK consumer watchdog Which?...

In a statement posted over the weekend, Ubisoft said it didn’t have “specific details” on the proposal but would share them - along with more information for Ubisoft+ subscribers on Stadia - “at a later date”. “While Stadia will shut down on January 18, 2023, we’re happy to share that we’re working to bring the games you own on Stadia to PC through Ubisoft Connect,” Ubisoft tweeted. “We’ll have more to share regarding specific details as well as the impact for Ubisoft+ subscribers at a later date....

Roller Champions, if you’re unfamiliar, is Ubisoft’s stab at creating the kind of knockabout sports mash-up that’s made Rocket League such a perennial favourite, playing out like a fast-paced hybrid of competitive roller-skating, hockey, and football - wherein two teams of three hurtle around a track in an attempt to wrestle the ball from one another and score a goal. Is it any good? Time will tell, but Eurogamer’s Chris Tapsell was pretty impressed when he played an early version shortly after its E3 2019 unveiling, calling it “honestly one of the demos I found hardest to tear myself away from....

First impressions for a PC port are often defined for me by looking at its options, where we find something of a mixed bag. There are things I like such as support for FSR 2 and DLSS, with separate sharpening sliders for both. However, there are other things that I found disappointing or counterintuitive for the PC audience. For example, resolution and refresh rate are tied to your desktop resolution and you have no real control over them in-game, beyond an internal resolution slider....

Anger at the clone’s success spilled over last night, as Unpacking’s official Twitter account flagged the rip-off to followers and made clear it was nothing to do with the game’s original creators. Hundreds of fans had reported the app, which is fuelled by microtransactions, to the Unpacking team. But Apple and Google seemingly only took action after the high-profile thread was widely-shared overnight - and today, other clones still exist....

Made in collaboration with Netlflix and the series’ writers, this upcoming release will put players into the shoes of season four’s main antagonist Vecna as he “explores unknown realities, forms the hive mind, and enacts his plan for revenge against Eleven and Hawkins”. All of this revenge planning and hive mind forming will see Vecna invading the memories and dreams of other characters from the show. This in turn will provide the ability for players to “harness telekinetic powers to battle humans and creatures alike”....

UK US We’re all in need of storage, be that physical or digital - something I for one can certainly vouch for. Whilst this SSD won’t clean or sort your house’s belongings into a tidy and organised state, it will certainly provide vast amounts of digital storage that you can bet will most definitely be of interest for avid gamers. We’ve all seen the increasing size of files, particularly with games but in general too with regards to things like video and photos etc....

Sumo, which is based in Sheffield but has studios in the US, told Reuters that Chinese megacorp Tencent had agreed to offer undertakings to gain approval from the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), which assesses deals to ensure they do not hurt national security. This is the same secretive taskforce once described by the Washington Post as “Trump’s Watchdog on China Dealmaking”. It’s also looking into the US sale of TikTok....

Over on reddit, user LostYugen yesterday posted a video showing that a player can be harpooned while holding a cart, then towed by boat, allowing for the transportation of a huge number of items. The maximum number of slots in a Valheim longship is 18, and by towing a cart you can double this amount to 36. Previously, some players had attempted to balance upturned carts on their boats to haul massive amounts of ore, but this technique can easily be scuppered by a storm - or simply some bad sailing....

The workbench has several requirements before it can be constructed, but once set up, will open up the early game significantly - from allowing you to establish your first base to crafting weapons and armour important to taking down the first boss. From there, you can upgrade the workbench to access gain new item types and upgrade your existing weapons and armour to more powerful variants. On this page: All of this sounds fairly straightforward - but the last point in particular can prove confusing....

In recent times, various source ports have become the method of choice in playing the game on modern hardware and one of the key features over and above the visual overhaul is the inclusion of mouse look. Original Doom was a 3D game effectively playing out on a 2D plane with no ability to look up or down. If you are shooting enemies that are elevated above, you have a hard time seeing them and the game just chooses to automatically aim vertically for you....

It wouldn’t be a Call of Duty game without a prominence of powerful assault rifles, quickly positioning themselves amongst Vanguard best weapons, and this option certainly fits the bill as an all-rounded rifle with a daunting fire rate, especially with the right attachments to join in. This page will cover how to unlock the Cooper Carbine in the fastest way possible, and the best Cooper Carbine loadout and Cooper Carbine class recommendations to enhance its capabilities even further....

As of May 2022, there are over 160 weapons available in Warzone, and though everyone has their favourites, there are definitely winners and losers among the list. Some are extremely powerful but hard to control, while others are easy to control but don’t pack much of a punch. Choosing the right weapon can give you a huge advantage over other players, and if you then learn to control their recoil and offset their idiosyncrasies, then you’ll be unstoppable....

For some Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, using a Dawn Stone is the only way to evolve them, as simply increasing their level won’t quite be enough. Here’s where to find Dawn Stones in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, from using your hard-earned cash to finding a freebie while out and about. On this page: If you’d like to learn more about your Paldea adventure, visit our Pokémon Scarlet and Violet walkthrough....

For the uninitiated, the aim of Wordle is to work out a daily five-letter word within six guesses. The fewer the guesses, the better - and if you fail to guess it at all, you’ll break your streak. The latter is why working out today’s Wordle answer is such a priority, as players pride themselves on keeping their streak going. So why gamble on a risky final guess when you can learn a few clues and, failing that, get the definitive answer?...
