It’s a pretty standard view that Games Pass is a great deal for PC and Xbox players, even if the price does keep creeping up. An unparalleled library of accessible games for a small(ish) monthly fee and day one exclusives such as Starfield, Halo, and Forza sweeten the deal still further but it is the wealth of other games, games such as Palworld and Flight Simulator that means that even between downtime of the enormous releases, there doesn’t really feel a need to pause your subscription. Compared with offerings from the likes of Ubisoft and so on, it feels like I only ever really dip in there when a new game comes out whereas my Game Pass sub runs and runs. Since Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard, the day has always been coming that a brand new Call of Duty game would come to Game Pass – technically free for existing subscribers, and a much cheaper way to play for new subscribers.

Anthropic, the tech firm behind chatbot Claude, has revealed it has rolled out a significant update to its AI safety policy, the risk governance framework it uses to mitigate potential catastrophic risks from frontier AI systems.

As you progress through your build of the Space Elevator you will eventually come to a blockage.

After years of intermittently rolling out new features involving artificial intelligence, Google is now bringing everything together in a major overhaul of Google Shopping. Announced on Tuesday (Oct. 15), the tech giant joins other major platforms that are shifting AI from a sidebar to the core of its shopping experience. In a blog post, Google announced that it has paired the 45 billion product listings in its shopping graph with its large language model (LLM), Gemini, “to transform the online shopping experience with a new, personalized shopping home.” Using Gemini, Google Shopping will only “show the most relevant products,” in a bid to speed up and simplify the process. We paired the 45 billion product listings in Google’s Shopping Graph with Gemini models to create the new Google Shopping, a transformed shopping experience rebuilt with AI – rolling out in the U.

It’s the annual ‘clear some space from your hard drive’ time as the new Call of Duty is incoming. Notorious for huge download sizes, each new CoD is a stressful event for players the world over as tough decisions need to be taken over what games to eradicate from your storage to fit the FPS behemoth on board and be ready ready to go from the sound of the first shots fired. How big is Call of Duty Black Ops 6? With Call of Duty Black Ops 6 initially rumored to take up to 300GB of install size this was quashed by the devs and we are looking at a file size of between 50-80GB if you don’t have Call of Duty HQ installed. If you do have HQ installed the installation goes down to around 35GB – but obviously CoD HQ is pretty large too. So once you have the required space freed up we can look at how to preload the game so we don’t have to wait for large downloads on Game Day, complete with the risk that servers don’t play nice at the beginning traditionally on big launches anyway. How to preload Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Pre-loading for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is activated for those who have bought the game on the 21st of October at the times listed below depending on your format of choice. For the first time, the new CoD is also coming to Xbox Game Pass on Day One, and there is already a pre-load option there which then tries to download MW3 and a file around 10GB for Black Ops 6.
