  • Sunset Overdrive for the PC Rated by ESRB

    Sunset Overdrive
    A PC release of Sunset Overdrive has not yet been announced. However, the long rumored PC release seems a bit more real today because the ESRB now has a listing for a PC version of the game.
    Content Descriptors: Blood and Gore, Drug Reference, Sexual Themes, Strong Language, Violence

    Rating Summary: This is a third-person shooter in which players assume the role of a young survivor battling through a mutant apocalypse. As players traverse the open-world of Sunset City, they use assault rifles and fantastical weapons (e.g., grenade launchers that shoot teddy-bear bombs, guns that shoot fireworks) to kill mutant creatures, robots, and occasional human enemies. Combat is highlighted by frequent explosions, screams of pain, and gunfire. Some explosives cause enemies to be dismembered, leaving limbs around the environment; one cutscene briefly depicts a character's head cut off by a mutant. During the course of the game, characters and environmental elements reference sexual behavior or humor (e.g., “Oh, such a bold statement! It says, 'I am a prostitute!'” and “How hard was it to make a porn flip book?” ); a radio ad contains a running joke about a sex burger (e.g., “It's so good you won't be able to contain your urges to rub it all over your Sex…Burger”). The dialogue contains a handful of drug references (e.g., “You guys have been eating weed” and “Oh, when I get back with your drugs, we'll discuss my offense at your assumption that I would know where to find drugs”). The words “f**k” and “sh*t” also appear in dialogue.

    The listing is still up and public on the ESRB website. I'm assuming we'll see an official announcement of the game soon-ish.

    So far, Sunset Overdrive has been exclusive to the Xbox One. It was developed by Insomniac Games, whom is the same studio behind the very popular Spider-Man game for the PlayStation 4.

      Sunset Overdrive is Now Available on PC
      by Shawn Zipay
      The PC release of Sunset Overdrive is here. Though it was never announced, we saw a few clues that it was happening in the previous weeks, including ratings by the Korean ratings board and the ESRB.

      But hey, it's here now. It's available through either the Windows 10 Store or through Steam. It is not part of the Game Pass or Play Anywhere programs. However, it is just $19.99 (USD) and it comes with all of the previously released DLCs, which probably makes the urge to double dip...

      Cyberpunk 2077's New, Extremely Taxing Ray Tracing Mode is Here
      by Shawn Zipay
      A mode to bring even the top-end RTX 4090 to its knees.

      Cyberpunk 2077 was updated today with a new and very, very demanding ray tracing option. Beyond the existing "Psycho" RT mode, players will now see an "Overdrive" mode that goes well above and beyond what you're used to seeing. This is the mode that utilizes path-tracing, which can otherwise be considered to be "full" ray tracing.

      While Nvidia says that any GPU with hardware ray tracing...

      Alan Wake to Join Dead by Daylight Roster
      by Shawn Zipay
      His appearance may actually be canon.

      After a quick tease just yesterday, it was confirmed today by Behaviour Interactive that Alan Wake will be joining the Survivors in Dead by Daylight. On January 30th, Alan Wake will be added as a playable Survivor. If you would like to try out Wake before the 30th, you can do so right now courtesy of a limited time public test build on Steam.

      There was also a lore appropriate reason for Wake's addition to Dead by Daylight. The reason...
