Space Marine 2 appears to be the current hotness. It’s popped off on Steam, hitting an impressive player count entirely with early adopters before smashing that figure once again as soon as the gates were thrown open by the game’s public release. The result is multifaceted. Not only do 40K fans get a loving send-up

The PS5 Pro games list has now been revealed by Sony – at least in part. In a recent technical presentation, PlayStation 5 Pro was revealed, alongside some glimpses of PS5 Pro-boosted games. We don’t have the full list of every game that’ll be improved by the new console, but we do know a handful

The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum is, perhaps unsurprisingly, supposedly going to be split into two films, according to Ian McKellen. It seems like Warner Bros is looking to continue its tradition of stretching out Lord of the Rings films into slightly too long with its next project, The Hunt for Gollum

Let me fill you in on a secret. This morning I wrote the outline of a reaction to the PS5 Pro announcement that Sony had yet to make, including my desire to pre-order it. I felt I had a pretty good idea of what to expect. In many ways I was right. In one major

The bustling cantinas and shady back alleys of Star Wars Outlaws‘ gorgeously detailed (but never overwhelming) cities, towns, and small villages feel refreshing. Is it because they’re deeply interactive? Nope, not at all. In fact, they’re rather static sets when it comes to possible interactions. The secret sauce is that they truly feel lived-in and

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle might be first-person, but that doesn’t mean MachineGames is making it an outright shooter. MachineGames is pretty well known for its first-person shooters – in fact, it’s even lauded for them, in particular its affinity towards games that let you absolutely wreck Nazis (i.e., Wolfenstein), something Indiana Jones does

I need to talk about the Eternal War PvP mode inSpace Marine 2. It has problems. The servers are kind of fizzling in and out of consciousness as of writing, and there’s not a huge number of maps or game modes present. But even with all these issues present right now, it’s still one of

Since Baldur’s Gate 3‘s uber-beefy Patch 7 arrived yesterday, folks on PC have naturally delved in to sapmple all of its new features – especially those extra evil endings. As it turns out, some of them are the kind of emotional rollercoaster not even the most hardened Durge can endure without feeling something. That said,

After arriving back in all of our lives by showing off his latest project, god game Masters of Albion, at Gamescom Opening Night Live, veteran developer Peter Molyneux has now been asked what kinds of changes and evolutions he thinks the next few decades of gaming might see. His answer? More Hollywood adaptations and, well,

Baldur’s Gate 3‘s uber-beefy Patch 7 has just arrived for PC bringing with it enough changes to match the word count of some University dissertations. However, if you’re hoping to delve into it on console or Mac, you’ll have to wait just a little bit longer – until October to be exact – in order
