The emulator’s version 0.1.0 can run some very simple games, as shown in a new video shared on YouTube by BrutalSam. The emulator is obviously in the very early stages of development, and many are the features yet to be implemented. With PlayStation 3 emulator RPCS3 having made some amazing progress in the past few months, it will be very interesting to see how far PlayStation 4 and even PlayStation 5 emulation will get in the future....

It will be henceforth known as Project AK, but that’s far from the only change. Whereas Project BBQ was targeting PC, Project AK is now described as a Soulslike action RPG for consoles. Of course, that doesn’t necessarily mean it won’t come out on PC, too. Project AK might still be some time away from release, though. Neople is recruiting several developers in key positions such as game planning (game balancing, level design, content planning, game PM), programming (game client programming), game graphics (3D background modeling, 3D terrain design, 3D effect, technical artist, UI/UX, background, character), technical support (QA), and multimedia (sound, video)....

Thankfully, it seems that’s not the case. According to IGN’s Jonathan Dornbush, the PS Plus Collection will continue on as part of the basic “Essential” tier. — Jonathon Dornbush (@jmdornbush) March 29, 2022 It definitely seems like Sony is trying to downplay the continued existence of the PS Plus Collection, but it’s nice to know they’re not actually taking it away. As a reminder, these are the games included in it....

Well, while we don’t have precise details on what’s going to be in the Resident Evil 4 remake, producer Yoshiaki Hirabayashi has assured PC Gamer that the new game’s length will be about the same as the original. “When we started production on RE4 we looked into what people thought was good [in the RE2 and RE3 remakes] and what could’ve been done better. One example is the play time for RE4 is about the same as the original game....

Now, we have news that Samsung is expecting the foldable market to grow by 80% in just 2 more years. Samsung Wants Future Galaxy Z Fold Phones to Have S Pen Slot, Flagship Cameras, Better Weight, Durability, and More During a meeting held by Samsung MX in the third week of October earlier this year, part suppliers were informed that the foldable smartphone market will see drastic growth. However, a surprising remark was that Samsung is expecting its biggest competitor Apple to join the foldable hype train by next year but this time around, it will either be in the form of a tablet or something else, so we are certainly not seeing a foldable iPhone....

This version of the Samsung 990 PRO comes with a heatsink pre-installed, so you can easily install it in your PS5. However, some motherboards and gaming laptops feature their own heatsinks, so you will have to remove the one present on it, otherwise, you will run into space compatibility issues. When you are finished installing the SSD, prepare yourself for some unrivaled speeds. Even though this M.2 drive supports the PCIe Gen 4....

The Saudi sovereign wealth fund, colloquially known as the Saudi PIF, retains substantial power to dictate the near-term direction of Lucid Group shares, given the fund’s gigantic 62.7 percent stake in the EV manufacturer toward the end of 2021. Well, the Saudi PIF just filed the requisite Form 13F for the first quarter of 2022, showing that it maintained its stake in Lucid Group, consisting of 1,015,252,523 shares collectively valued at over $25 billion....

As reported by Gematsu, the game’s rating can be found on the Game Rating and Administration Committee of Korea’s website. The rating confirms that the game will be published by UNIANA, which publishes Konami games in South Korea, in the region, but doesn’t specify on which platform. As for what Silent Hill: The Short Message could be, no one can say at this point, but it’s likely it is the Sakura demo that was leaked online a few weeks ago....

As spotted by ResetERA forums member modiz, the presentation tags on YouTube have revealed which announcements will be made during it. Alongside Silent Hill 2, there’s mention of Silent Hill: Ascension and Return to Silent Hill, which could be the names of new entries in the series.

Well, according to the frequently leaky Tom Henderson, Ubisoft is planning to re-reveal Skull and Bones the week of July 4th via a livestream featuring a trailer, gameplay, developer commentary, and more. It’s also expected we’ll get a release date. In a bit of further evidence something may be brewing, Skull and Bones has been rated by the Brazilian Advisory Board. Of course, take all of this with a grain of salt for now, but Ubisoft does currently have Skull and Bones listed for a FY2023 release (which runs until March 31, 2023), so some sort of pending reveal would make sense....

First and foremost, Black Dahlia received a brand-new alpha trailer, which you can watch below. Given the footage shown, Black Dahlia’s gameplay loop revolves around staying in the mid-range, using her projectiles and command jumps to keep the pressure on, with several multi-hitting normals and other attacks. In a sense, the gun she carries acts like Happy Chaos’s gun in Guilty Gear Strive (she’ll have to manage its ammo during gameplay)....

The fallout from the insolvency of the crypto exchange FTX keeps growing as investors wonder which project will be the next to go under amid ricocheting margin calls and decimated DeFi portfolios. With FTX’s founder, Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF), playing such a pivotal role in the launch of Solana, it is hardly surprising that the blockchain’s native SOL coin is getting utterly eviscerated today. At the time of writing, Solana’s SOL token is down 43 percent over the past 24 hours as opposed to Bitcoin’s 16 percent loss in the same timeframe....

As part of its testing campaign for the Starship launch vehicle platform, SpaceX conducted two important tests yesterday in its facilities in Boca Chica, Texas. The company is currently developing its Starship next generation launch vehicle platform in Texas, and the rocket is made of a first stage booster and the upper stage spacecraft.

As part of its launch campaign for its Mars rocket, Space Exploration Technologies Corporation (SpaceX) lifted the Super Heavy booster prototype of its Starship next generation rocket with a crane in its testing facilities in Boca Chica, Texas on Friday. As opposed to its Falcon 9 rockets which are assembled before being sent out to the pad, SpaceX plans to lift the two pieces of Starship on the launch pad itself, and to do this, the company has built a large crane structure....

Spectre V2 hits Intel and ARM CPUs once again, affecting newer Intel and Arm cores BHI is a proof-of-concept attack affecting vulnerable CPUs open to Spectre V2 exploits. The interesting part of this particular attack is that several mitigations were currently in place on the affected CPUs. BHI avoids the Intel Enhanced Indirect Branch Restricted Speculation (EIBRS) and the Arm ID_PFR0_EL1 CSV2 assignment. VUSec reports that BHI enables cross-privilege Spectre-v2 exploits, allowing kernel-to-kernel (intra-mode BTI) exploits and permitting attackers to place predictor entries into the global branch prediction history make kernel leak data....
