If you wish to remain completely unspoiled in regards to the upcoming DLC for BioShock Infinite, then you may want to skip the video below. It doesn’t give out any major spoilers, but it does show the first few minutes of the game, including a look at the city of Rapture and some hints as to what the plot is all about – at least the obvious plot.

As we discussed in our preview, the DLC features a different DeWitt and Elizabeth from the pair we saw in BioShock Infinite, and it’s set in a different time (although knowing the BioShock series the truth is more complicated than that). Burial at Sea, the first of the two planned DLCs for Infinite, takes place in Rapture just before things went bad – very bad.

DeWitt remains a detective for hire, but his office is located in Rapture and he is very much a citizen of Andrew Ryan’s underwater utopia. Elizabeth – a different, more femme-fatale Elizabeth than you know from Infinite – seeks him out to help find a girl that DeWitt believes is dead. The two then walk through Rapture at its peak.

Check out the clip below, and check out our recent interview with Ken Levine for more about the creation of Burial at Sea.

Nintendo downplays CES’ convincing Nintendo Switch 2 leak

A Switch 2 mock-up sits in a Genki case.

Following CES 2025, where accessory-maker Genki showed off a mock-up model of the Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo is now debunking recent leaks about its still unrevealed console.

Gamers have been glued to nearly every Nintendo Switch 2 rumor that has emerged in recent weeks (and there have been a lot of them), but the most recent was a supposed mockup of the console on the CES 2025 show floor. Until then, Nintendo had kept mum about the leaks, but now the company has broken its silence and issued a statement.

Half-Life 3 detectives think they’ve found new clues in Steam’s code

Half-Life 2

The evidence for Half-Life 3 continues to build, with fans now saying they have proof the game exists within Steam's back-end code. There have been quite a few hints lately that could be interpreted to be the long-awaited sequel, but after many, many, many disappointments over the past two decades, we urge you to take this news with the proper dose of skepticism.

On the Valve subreddit, u/Relevant_Basis5444 discovered that Valve has two games listed under Upcoming Releases, but only Deadlock is visible. The finding prompted a discussion among users -- many confirming the listing -- and one even said that using the Wayback Machine shows only one upcoming game as of December 29. Of course, there is a chance this could be nothing more than a bug.

How to get fire quartz in Stardew Valley

A player getting a mineral in Stardew Valley.

There are tons of common items and materials in Stardew Valley that don't require you to look up any tips or tricks to find. Things like regular quartz are almost impossible to miss, while things like Powdermelon and fire quartz aren't quite as easy to come by. The rarer the material, the more uses it has, which is the case for this red version of quartz called fire quartz. Despite how pretty they look, you probably won't want to give them away as gifts once you learn how to reliably find them.
How to find fire quartz

Like any mineral in Stardew Valley, fire quartz needs to be foraged out in the world rather than made yourself. The Mines are where you will need to spend your time searching, but only after you have explored far enough to reach floor 80 and beyond. After floor 80, fire quartz will start to appear for you to forage. Beyond finding it on its own, you can also find some inside of either Magam or Omni Geodes. Because it is fairly common to spot on its own, you shouldn't need to rely on looking for geodes to get enough.
