It has been almost a year since Fallen Aces arrived on the early access scene, bringing impeccable Dick Tracy gangster comic vibes to the immersive sim genre. While there’s still a little ways to go until the second episode launches, the game was updated just a few days ago with a powerful level editor, Steam…
Unlike most sandbox survival games, Dune: Awakening gives you a great deal of character customisation beyond just the appearance of your poor little survivor. After deciding on their look, you’ll have an intense…discussion (read: interrogation) with the reverend mother, where you’ll need to pick your homeworld, caste, and mentor. Each of these three character customisation…
Russia has come down hard on Lesta Games (via Meduza), the domestic company that inherited local rights to World of Tanks (or Mir Tankov, as it’s known locally) after its original dev, Wargaming, exited Belarus and Russia in protest of the latter’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine. Wargaming, which has a studio in Kyiv, has since…
Like all good survival games, once you’ve got the “living” part under control, it’s time to move on to the finer things in life—base building—and the Dune: Awakening Twitch Drops are here to help. All you need to do is watch a participating streamer for up to two hours, and you don’t even have to…
You’d be forgiven for thinking that gaming headset audio has reached something of a standstill. After all, tear apart most models and you’ll find a pair of traditional do-it-all drivers, which are essentially two small speakers pointed directly at your lugholes. Expensive planar magnetic units (like those used in the magnificent Audeze Maxwell) are the…
Sandworms in Dune: Awakening are scary as hell. They’re huge, they’re fast, and they’re summoned anytime you cross the big, sandy gaps between rocky areas in the desert because they can sense your itty bitty footsteps. Seeing the dunes shift as they tunnel through the desert is alarming, and seeing them burst through the sand…
It doesn’t take a rampant AI super-intelligence to notice that Sony’s State Of Play showcase last night had a conspicuous absence: Bungie’s extraction-shooter reboot of classic FPS series Marathon, which recently landed in hot water thanks to much of its striking new aesthetic being directly plagiarized. Those disappointed in Bungie (or just wanting something closer…
Good news: someone at Bethesda tripped over a discarded game case in the hall and remembered that it released an Elder Scrolls game a month and a half ago. After a lengthy period of silence regarding Oblivion Remastered, Bethesda has poked its head up to announce not one, but two upcoming patches to its redone…
Budget GPU launches over the last couple of months should have been received with mainstream excitement, but this has been hampered not just by real-world pricing issues but also by VRAM. Gamers haven’t seemed particularly happy with 8 GB options, especially when first Nvidia and then AMD seemed to keep them away from the bulk…
Happy Nintendo Switch 2 launch day to all who celebrate! While I wouldn’t swap my rig for anything, I do just so happen to be watching my tracking information like a hawk while I wait for the postie today. So, despite my better judgement, I’ll be saying ‘um, actually’ to another thing Nvidia CEO Jensen…
