Nvidia’s GeForce Now streaming service is a great way to play PC games on platforms that can’t support them. But you can’t get all the bells and whistles of the PC gaming experience — mods are pretty hard to implement on those remote streaming machines.

Good lord, PC games are getting big. It’s not uncommon for a single AAA game to cross the 50GB threshold these days, which makes things kind of awkward when you don’t have a massive drive. Loading up Baldur’s Gate III on a base model Steam Deck will eat up half the storage.

Get enough Star Trek fans in a room and the conversation inevitably turns toward which of the series’ cinematic outings is the worst. The consensus view is The Final Frontier, Insurrection and Nemesis are duking it out for the unwanted trophy. Each film has a small legion of fans who will defend each entry’s campy excesses, boldness and tone. (I’m partial to watching The Final Frontier every five years or so, mostly to luxuriate in Jerry Goldsmith’s score.) Thankful

A $2,000 video card for consumers shouldn't exist. The GeForce RTX 5090, like the $1,599 RTX 4090 before it, is more a flex by NVIDIA than anything truly meaningful for most gamers. NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang said as much when he revealed the GPU at CES 2025, assuming that it'll be for hardcore players who have $10,000 rigs.
