“Now there’s a pullback, at least with the high-end graded stuff”. COVID might feel like a distant memory to some, but the ramifications of a global lockdown are still being felt today, beyond the obviously tragic loss of life. Industries like video gaming are having to deal with a decline in revenue as the post-COVID…
Top controllers to level up your Nintendo Switch 2 experience. The Nintendo Switch 2’s versatility means you’re not stuck with just one way to play — but choosing the right controller can make all the difference. Whether you’re after a classic Pro-style pad for TV gaming, a compact option for travel, or something tailored to…
Dear reader, it might not surprise you to hear this, given my professional, actual job is to write for a site about PC Gaming—but I’m not really into sports. This isn’t universal among our staff, mind. I was duly ribbed for the way I described the following feeling in our morning meet. However, the recent…
Elden Ring Nightreign doesn’t just have brutal bosses with the aim of a sniper and the fury of Zeus, it also has, at times, a map that tries to kill you. And I’m not just talking about the storm. Occasionally there’ll be Shifting Earth events. These start popping up after you defeat the first Nightlord…

Puzzling out the best weapons in FBC: Firebreak might take you a little time when you first drop into the Federal Bureau of Control. Not too long, mind you, considering the game only has six weapons on launch and some are quite clearly a lot stronger than others. To quickly aid you in gunning down…
Picking a Crisis Kit when you first load into FBC: Firebreak isn’t as important as you might initially think. Since you can swap between kits whenever you want in the loadout menu, you won’t be stuck with the first one you choose—in fact I’m not even sure why the game offers you this choice when…
