Earlier this week was the hearing for the preliminary injunction that Epic filed asking the court to prevent Apple from removing Fortnite from the store and revoking Epic’s App Store developer licenses.

This model I’ve been playing with is the top-spec, £2000 version. Prices start at £1700 and that still comes with shiny new AMD parts, including the Ryzen 7 6800HS CPU and Radeon RX 6700S GPU. Mind you, even this souped-up model doesn’t actually have much else in common with the Raider GE76: it’s smaller, genuinely portable, and cares more about those qualities than breaking speed records. Indeed, that’s evident enough from the use of an S-series GPU – these are designed for thin and light laptops specifically, leaving M-series GPUs like the Radeon RX 6800M to please performance purists....

The term “apocalypse” is overused in video games but I’m well onboard when devils are involved. In the sprawling family tree of Atlus games, this falls under the Devil Summoner series on the Megami Tensei branch.

I know the first game give your devils plenty of personality, with alignments and interests and preferred attacks that can make building a party an interesting challenge, and presumably that continues here?...
