How to build The Matrix
In this article we look at the development of video game technology past and future to ask the question: Could a simulation like that in “The Matrix” actually be built?
View More How to build The Matrix‘Dead Pixels’ is a new comedy that lovingly pokes fun at gaming culture
In Dead Pixels, we follow a group of friends who pass the majority of their time together on the green pastures of the online game Kingdom Scroll — a fictional RPG that just happens to look a whole lot like World of Warcraft.
Since the four gamer friends don’t seem to have that much to do with each other beyond Kingdom Scroll, it’s easy to see the show as a commentary on how young people are spending their lives in fantasy universes while losing touch with the outside world and the people in it.
But according to Alexa Davies, star of the new Channel 4 comedy, that’s not the case. Dead Pixels, Davies explains, is not a commentary on the stereotypical view of gaming culture as a virtual world populated by those who feel safer online. Read more…

View More Unity adds preview support for Nvidia’s ray tracing tech to push gaming realism‘The Division 2’ is Ubisoft’s ‘we don’t do politics’ stance in action
When all is said and done, The Division 2‘s story can be summed up in simple terms: This is Bad Dudes, but with a script.
I’m talking about the old arcade game that famously opened with the lines: “President Ronnie has been kidnapped by ninjas. Are you a bad enough dude to rescue the President?” From there, you get to punch and kick your way through seven stages of ninja baddies before chomping on some burgers with the president.
When you look at the bigger picture of The Division 2, the premise is nearly as ridiculous and far-fetched. Washington, D.C. is lawless and locked down after a deadly viral outbreak, and it’s up to you — an agent a secret federal task force charged with, well, fixing America — to restore order and rebuild that symbol of U.S. freedom, the White House.

Vectordash’s cloud gaming service brings crypto-miners a new revenue stream
