Nioh 3 just got a Steam demo, and given Team Ninja’s history I’m surprised how well it runs on my aging rig
Team Ninja’s games tend to run poorly on PC at launch. Rise of the Ronin, which arrived on PC last March after a period of PS5 exclusivity, was a mess: it stuttered, it sputtered all over the framerate gamut, it crashed a lot, and it didn’t even look very good. That was the case even…

Atom Zombie Smasher has been in my Steam account about as long as I’ve had one. I held out for as long as I could, but eventually games on CD started demanding I install Steam to run them, so I caved and soon after got Portal and a handful of digital-only indie games like Audiosurf,…
