GeForce RTX 5070 Takes The Number One Spot On Amazon, More NVIDIA GPUs Replace AMD In Best Selling GPUs List

NVIDIA claims to have shipped twice as many RTX 50 cards as RTX 40 since launch, but it’s an unfair comparison

Essentially Nvidia is comparing 4 RTX 50 gpus in the same time span of when they only released a 4090

Chinese retailer lists GeForce RTX 5060 12GB and RTX 5060 Ti cards with initial prices

Big salt but if true, that would put the 5060 in a really good position

Nvidia retaking the top spot in sales was bound to happen sooner rather than later, but with the 5070? The worst (so far) of the 5000 cards? Really? And yes, I know it's the cheapest yet, but it's still a really bad option.

Nvidia lying sorry, misleading about its sales shows that they're in defense mode and are, in a way, desperate to show they're doing well.

And the 12GB 5060 would be a nice and very welcome surprise. It leaves the 8GB 5060Ti in a weird spot, but I don't think Nvidia will use the first 3GB memory chips on a lower class GPU, or at least not yet. We'll see.

A dead MMO that launched with a now-cancelled TV show in 2013 is coming back 4 years after servers were shut down
https://www.pcgamer.com/games/mmo/a-dead-mmo-that-launched-with-a-now-cancelled-tv-show-in-2013-is-coming-back-4-years-after-servers-were-shut-down/
Trion Worlds' Defiance was an odd duck. It launched in 2013 alongside a TV show tie-in with the same name, set on a future Earth following an alien invasion—during which the planet was aggressively terraformed. Both the game and the show were a mix of grungy post-apocalyptic western and futuristic sci-fi.
(...)
Only a couple of years later, the show was cancelled, but the MMO persevered. And it stuck around for a while, until 2021, when the servers were shut down. Defiance was never one of the heavy-hitters, and I haven't thought about it for a good long while, but it looks like it's been living in enough folks' heads that it's making a comeback.
Fawkes, "an indie studio and publisher dedicated to reviving treasured titles", has decided that Defiance fits its brief, and has set itself the task of bringing the game back to life. It acquired the rights to both the original 2013 version of the game and the relaunched Defiance 2050 version that appeared in 2018.

Oh I really liked the Defiance game actually I will give it another spin when i re-releases.

Edit: I read a little more on it and no controller support at launch and might only get it in the future so it's dead again for me.

What a rollercoaster of emotions it must have been. I hope they add controller support soon enough so you can give it another go.
