I’m starting to measure the passage of time in terms of how long I’ve been dawdling in Baldur’s Gate 3’s second act—this will surely be the month I finally make a decision about Shadowheart’s fate and see my way to the titular city, because with Alan Wake 2 and Lords of the Fallen out last…
Treasure’s legendary shmup Radiant Silvergun is no ordinary arcade shooting experience, oh no. If you’ve never played Radiant Silvergun, then you’ve never played a shmup like Radiant Silvergun, either. This is a shmup with fully voiced cutscenes, an RPG-like experience system in place of traditional power-ups, a rich orchestral soundtrack composed by Hitoshi Sakimoto of…
It took a whole lot longer than anyone expected (or reasonably thought possible), but the first Payday 3 patch is finally here. Developer Starbreeze says the update makes “a massive amount of fixes to make your heisting a smoother experience,” and that the instability issues players have been dealing with since the game launched in…
“For Lae’zel to decide to romance you, you no longer only need to gain high enough approval from her,” reads one entry for Baldur’s Gate 3’s fourth major patch. “You must also have proven yourself worthy through your actions.” Sounds reasonable enough, but there’s a catch: an entire speedrun category has been irrevocably altered.

Robocop: Rogue City’s combat feels like straight up murder: I totally lost it when I punched someone for the first time and Robocop’s fist flew out with the force of a particle accelerator, instantly atomizing their skull. A few minutes later I had to take a breather after picking up a dumpster and squashing four…
A patch for Cities: Skylines 2 has been released today, addressing several issues with the game—though it doesn’t sound like it’s the overhaul needed to soothe the city builder’s biggest performance problems. Hopefully, that patch won’t be too much longer. One issue that should improve as a result of this patch is the Cities: Skylines…
The next major Sims 4 DLC has been revealed, and this expansion pack is giving me serious whiplash. The For Rent expansion brings the long-requested ability to build true multi-family lots in The Sims 4, which I am absolutely psyched for—though the grim realities of deadly mold and housing anxiety are also along for the…
Finding the Ghost House safe code in RoboCop: Rogue City is one of the first puzzling encounters you’ll hit in the game. Up until this point, you will have mainly spent your time neutralising perps with extreme prejudice—by which I mean hurling criminals at each other—so it might be a bit of a shock to…
