We live in complex geopolitical times. I think. I’ll be honest, I’ve not been paying attention. But it’s recently become known to me that a little strip of water called the Strait of Hormuz has—like a wavepool they had to shut down due to a urine crisis—shut up shop. This has caused a great deal…
The remarkable patch cadence of Crimson Desert shows no signs of abating, with yet another meaty update arriving just this Friday. Patch 1.08.00 brings a big new batch of additions and improvements to Pearl Abyss’ ludicrous kitchen sink of an RPG, including a host of cute new critters and more weapons to brutally slaughter them…
The studios behind Peak, Aggro Crab and Landfall Games, originally threw the game together at a breakneck pace during a 4-week game jam. In a recent interview at GDC, Aggro Crab studio head Nick Kamant told PC Gamer editor Ted Litchfield it didn’t just help them switch gears to smaller projects—it also helped them realize…
Paralives has just hit early access, and while it is very much a work-in-progress right now, it’s also the most fun I’ve had playing a life sim in a hot sec. As a lifelong Sims player, I’ve been noticing loads of neat stuff in Paralives that you just won’t find in The Sims 4, even…
Helldivers 2 is currently in the “it’s so over” phase of its live-service cycle. A dodgy Warbond plus a general comedown from its Siege of Cyberstan event has left the community discontented and recent Steam reviews at ‘Mostly Negative’. After addressing the community on the issue, Arrowhead has begun the process of clawing its way…
At long last, there are a whole three full-scale, Sims-style life sims available now that Paralives has launched into early access. It feels like there may finally be something in this genre for all of us to chew on. With a handful of real options to consider, is Paralives worth getting in early access? I’ve…
As I start my new life simming adventures in Paralives, I’ve realized that decades of using shortcuts in The Sims have spoiled me. The strategy of it all is brilliant, but if you’re anything like me and just want to play in build mode sometimes, then you’ll be happy to hear there are Paralives cheats…
Just like its life sim cousins, Paralives has quite a few money cheats you can use to get rich quick, but maybe they’re tucked away in an even longer, more complex list of Paralives cheats you don’t want to dig through. I get that, not everyone wants to know about item IDs or time hacks….
007 First Light releases in just two days’ time, but developer IO Interactive had decided to give players desperate for the first proper James Bond game in fourteen years a sneak peek of the game in action, uploading the first 13 minutes of the game onto YouTube. Granted, this appears to be because footage of…
It finally happened. Star Citizen has officially surpassed $1 billion in player funding. Well, I say ‘finally’, it actually crashed through the barrier a lot faster than I expected. I’ve kept a close eye on the funding tracker for Cloud Imperium Games’ hugely ambitious space MMO as it approached the big one-billy milestone, and with…
