Riot’s approach to League of Legends lore has always been a bit… flexible. Champion backstories have been repeatedly retconned, and the entire premise of the game has changed a couple of times since launch (remember when it was a literal sport?). More recently, as the Runeterra universe has expanded with books, spin-off games, and the…
Evergreen. The UK Charts look somewhat familiar this week, as both Hogwarts Legacy and EA Sports FC 24 return to positions one and two respectively. This means that Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League has now slipped down to take the bronze in what will no doubt be a blow to Warner Bros. Games after…
The latest UK physical software charts have arrived courtesy of GfK for the week ending 3rd October 2020. There’s two new entires in this week’s charts and they are Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time at No.1 and Star Wars: Squadrons at No.2. Sadly, this means that the former No.1 Super Mario 3D All-Stars has…
Black Friday is all over for another year. Except it’s not really, because now we’re into Cyber Monday, and that’ll be followed by Cyber Week. The good news is that there are plenty of deals to be found on every type and flavor of GPU, whatever your budget may be. 👉 The best Cyber Monday…
It’s been great to see the legendary FPS Duke Nukem 3D get some love and attention over the last few weeks, thanks to its special anniversary celebrations, as there’s no doubting that despite its flaws, which are few, its impact on PC gaming was huge and it remains a megaton of fun to play today…
