Steam Reviews Will Now Let You Share What Hardware You Used To Run Games
Valve has started testing a new feature that will allow users to add hardware specifications to user reviews, giving you more information when attempting to determine how a game might run on your own PC.
The update, which is currently being deployed to the Steam Beta Client, will give users the ability to attach hardware information to user reviews instead of just relying on users entering this in the text directly. The patch notes don't mention how or if these specifications will be verified by Steam, or whether the information is going to be sourced from Steam's optional Hardware Survey database.
Either way, it should give reviews more context when users leave criticism over a game's performance, letting you make a decision over whether it might affect your current hardware configuration. In addition to this, Valve is also giving users the option to allow for anonymized framerate data collection. This is currently exclusive to devices using SteamOS (which is officially just handhelds currently) but will apparently be used to help Valve determine game performance and compatibility to improve Steam going forward.

A new report claims that TikTok owner ByteDance is in "advanced talks" to sell its subsidiary Moonton Technology to Saudi Arabia's Savvy Games Group. The deal is estimated to be valued at between $6 billion and $7 billion, according to a report from Reuters.
ByteDance paid $4 billion in 2021 to buy Moonton, so that would be quite a return for the company. At $6 billion, Savvy buying Moonton would be the No. 5 biggest acquisition in the history of video games.
Reuters said ByteDance and Savvy have agreed on "broad terms" for the deal, and that a deal could be formalized by the end of March.

If you're a fan of wacky--and frequently vulgar--comedy games, you'll probably be interested in seeing what High on Life 2 has to offer. This raunchy, action-packed sequel packs in even more fart jokes, F-bombs, and grotesque creatures than the first outing, ensuring that you're always either laughing or holding back your lunch--or both at the same time. But if you're curious about diving in guns blazing for a second romp through this universe, you may want to know how long it'll take you to see it through. So, here's how long it takes to beat High on Life 2.
How long is High on Life 2?High on Life 2 is faster-paced than the original, but it also provides larger, more open zones to explore and some surprisingly thoughtful puzzles you'll need to complete on your journey toward its conclusion. It's rarely overwhelmingly difficult, though, so if your goal is just to reach the end of the game and see the credits roll, then an average playthrough should take 10-12 hours. Still, for those who want more, there's a lot of optional stuff to see and do as you explore each area.
If you do decide to take on the additional content scattered throughout the world of High on Life 2, you can extend your total playtime by a few hours. Heading out to explore each of the game's main hubs during your downtime between missions can yield extra money (pesos) and useful upgrades. And if you're a true completionist looking to fill out the full trophy or achievement list, you'll find things like skateboard races, retro games to discover, and additional one-off tasks to complete on your quest to see absolutely everything in the game.
