GAME-HIVE: Your Ultimate Destination for Gaming News, Reviews, and Tips

All good things must come to an end, not necessarily due to the natural course of things, but due to total assholes roaming the world and ruining the fun for the rest of us. Now, due to scammers increasingly using physical Steam gift cards for their nefarious deeds, Valve is going to kill them off altogether. This is according to SteamDB on X , which spotted a new clause on Valve’s Steam Wallet explanation page where the company officially announced the end of physical Steam gift cards due to scammers adapting to every restriction the company put into place to protect its own customers, as well as unassuming victims of scams. “We introduced Steam Gift Cards to retail stores back in 2012 and added the digital program in 2017. Unfortunately, scammers use gift cards from major brands like Steam to take advantage of all people all over the world,” Valve wrote. Valve had a robust gift card system in place for years, but it will soon be digital-only. ...

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake for the Switch 2 has finally been announced, which should be great news, but it propelled a large number of fans to immediately go “wait a minute” on it and reveal a hilarious truth I can no longer unsee. The announcement trailer begins by showing a neat little tapestry depicting the Great Deku Tree, then a few side drawings of Link. That part was all well and good. The troubles start when the camera leaves the art to show the actual Link model we’ll be playing as. It’s what you’d expect to see in Unreal Engine fan remakes by one person who’s less into the spirit of the game they’re remaking, and more into all sorts of visual gimmicks that UE entices one with. 2016: Nintendo Hire This Man 2026: Nintendo Hired This Man https://t.co/Uf7DyLp4rx pic.twitter.com/hoKNakKMhy — Pinguis (@Pinguis54) June 9, 2026 Remakes like these show up on Twitter on a monthly basis, promptin...

The Hunter is one of the two paid classes in TBH: Task Bar Hero , and she’s one of the strongest options to have. This class has very few downsides and plenty of upsides, making her a top-tier character. However, you’ll still have to build her correctly to get the most of her abilities. Best TBH: Task Bar Hero Hunter build The Hunter’s primary role is to deal damage. She uses her crossbow to hit enemies from range. Unlike the Ranger, however, she has AoE potential. She can also slow down enemies, allowing her teammates to finish them off. However, she doesn’t have a lot of health. If caught, she can only take a few hits. Hence, it’s important to pair her with a healer and a tank for best results. Let’s first go through her two best abilities. Frost Bolt: She fires a bolt that explodes on impact. It deals 255% area damage and freezes all impacted enemies. It’s great at dealing damage and trapping enemies by disabling them te...
