In today’s Daily Fix, DO NOT play Amazon’s MMO, New World, if you have an Nvidia RTX 3090 graphics card…unless you want to turn that $1,200 GPU into a paperweight. It seems the beta for that open-world MMO is bricking a specific model of that GPU line, and there’s no fix for it yet. Yikes. In other PC gaming news, Ubisoft is considering a return to Steam if the Steam Deck takes off. The newly-announced PC handheld can play the Ubisoft games already offered on Steam, but their latest titles, like the upcoming Far Cry 6, will only be sold via Ubi’s own digital store or the Epic Games Store (if you want the PC version). It’s important to note that Ubisoft does tend to support new platforms regardless of their popularity (they had quite a few games on the Wii U), so it might not be too long until you can add all the Tom Clancy games you want to your Steam collection. And speaking of Nintendo, the company is updating its offerings of retro games for Nintendo Switch Online subscribers with three new games. There are some bangers in there, like Claymates. And Jelly Boy. And…Bombuzal. Yup, some real classics. Anyway, it’s your Daily Fix!

HAHAHA there goes your 3090!
Nintendo is at it again.
The ubisoft news makes no sense. They don't need to "make" games on the steam deck. You could just install uplay (or whatever they call it now) on the steam deck and run the games that way.
“On todays fix” 4th fix of today
Like that Chrono Trigger is playing in background😀
first covid, then this. wtf now
Lol imagine being able to get a rtx 3090 and then an Amazon game bricking your GPU…
It's not the game, it's EVGA 3090's cards.
Stop making cards do you have games to play first 🤣🤣
Not being able to afford a 3090 has its upsides.
Man if u have the money to buy a rtx 3090 a bricked one probably won't hurt u financially cuz u can just buy another one.
lol ubisoft needs to F right off tbh.
Time for a class action lawsuit against Amazon! 😀
“Amazon’s incredibly rich, and you’re probably not” 😂😂😂 just stick it to us hard 😂😂😂
Ha ha ha my rx570 is Supreme
So far sounds more like an EVGA (and/or Nvidia) driver problem. Which is a fairly regular enough occurrence, every generation.
Oh no the enchiladas were tooooo cheesy
Serves people right honestly for buying such an overpriced piece of crap
Yves is pronounced “Eve’. eye roll
That's so painful to hear…
Buy a $2000 dollar 3090 card from Amazon and they brick it for you to
I’m actually really excited for Claymates. 👉👈
It’s a really fun platformer.
So u report on this but not on cold war bricking ps5s? Fishy, very fishy indeed.
Does this mean that it cannot be fixed and your gpu is useless?
If you're playing Amazon MMO on 3090, probably it deserves to get bricked
"Able to put your games on it"?
Sounds like he doesn't know what the steam deck is. Ubisoft games and even Uplay+ is already on PC.
It's a closed beta so…. That's not exactly screaming "this is a game distributed to the masses…" That's why it's still "IN CLOSED BETA" 🙄 You DO sign that very long form stating your choosing to test the game of your own free will and hold the developer at a limited liability capacity… Blah blah blah…. You know, the 20 page document no one reads while hoping to play a free game in hopes of getting an extra 2 weeks up on the rest of the world for bragging rights? Ring any bells? No? Well, that's IGN journalism for you. They tend to forget about those things unless they're receiving favors in return from game studios that are hip and trendy with the masses anyway.
why are there two daily fixes? ign really want that many more views?
Ha ha ha that Nintendo bit was hilarious
You got bamboozle.
No wonder Jeff went to space.
he’s like gaming bruce willis
Not alone in wishing Metroid Zero Mission & Fusion was on Switch already.
Didn’t even know an Amazon mmo was a thing.
Where’s that sexy girl who does the daily fix?
Can’t relate don’t have one
I’m not buying this game because Jeff Besos doesn’t need more money from a games division
Brian Altano is cool but he's no Destin
Scalpers deserve the rope
My bet is it doesn't have as much to do with Amazon as it does people buying 3090s from unreasonable sources and they are buying cards that were abused for mining. DON'T BUY FROM RUSSIA OR CHINA.
Playing on 3080 ti but I’m nervously playing. I’m going to stop playing until they fix there game.
Brian ive noticed your glasses are a little uneven on the right side it is 5mm higher than the left
Can't brick a 3090 if you can't find a 3090 in the first place
It's evga fault 😂
Issue an alert across all the PC playerbase.
Omg.. Shocking.. U buy a video card to play a game and this happens.. Horrible.
