Surprise attack! After a short hiatus spent shoring up its forces and launching targeted strikes on planets with a weaponized black hole, the Illuminates have launched a new campaign in Helldivers 2’s galactic war. The cunning beasts are marching closer to Super Earth than ever before. Players suspect the latest offensive will culminate in a…
A new item in Marvel Rivals’ latest event has broken the idea many players had about its ranked mode—namely that it’s an accurate way to measure your skill at the game. One loss is no longer necessarily weighed the same as another: The Galacta’s Gift event lets you earn up to eight free Chrono Shield…
Baldur’s Gate 3’s Patch 8 was stuffed full of wonderful things, like 12 new subclasses and a photo mode, but once it was out some players stumbled into new dialogue they had never heard before. A chat with a certain corpse revealed a snippet of a storyline that didn’t actually exist anywhere else in the…
Oblivion players of a certain vintage will recall that, after the original game’s release, there were various community trends based around what you could do with the game’s physics system: specifically, just how elaborate of a domino run could you make? This has of course been repeated across Bethesda’s games up through Starfield, because something…
The scramble to turn every videogame into a movie is now in full swing, and another film adaptation has just been announced: this time it’s Riders Republic, Ubisoft’s 2021 open world extreme sports sandbox. The game didn’t have much of a plot beyond competing in biking, skiing, snowboarding, and wingsuiting races and competitions, so if…
Though it takes place in the same setting as Control, it could not be any clearer in Remedy’s new co-op shooter that you are no Jesse Faden. Forget telekinetic superpowers and shape-shifting weaponry—this time you’re just an expendable grunt, sent out to do jobs so dangerous that your objectives are more likely to kill you…
As the world looks ahead to the fast approaching June 5 release date for the Switch 2, I can’t help but look back. Beyond my Animal Crossing Switch (and, uh, my Animal Crossing 3DS XL), I perhaps spend too much time still considering Nintendo’s fetching purple lunch box. Yes, it’s true—I’m one of those wearying…
At time of writing, the Oblivion remaster has generated enough money to buy France. Across the world, the gears of business churn inevitably: someone at Microsoft emails someone at Bethesda to ask, a little forcefully, which classic game they’ll be making a quadrillion dollars on next. The answer is almost certainly Fallout 3, and who…
Let me start off this review with something that became immediately obvious when I pulled this laptop from the box: The MSI Raider 18 HX AI is a hefty boi. A chungus. A honking, chonking, slab of a gaming laptop. In a world where laptops like the Razer Blade 16 and the Asus ROG Zephyrus…
In a recent episode of Hideo Kojima’s podcast KOJI10, the Metal Gear and Death Stranding creator discussed some of the game ideas he’s had relating to time. These should be taken with a pinch of salt, because Kojima’s always loved spieling about how certain concepts would work in videogames, but at least one was almost…
