Amnesia: The Bunker Review (PC)

Frictional Games plays it safe. Perhaps a little too safe.

Frictional Games is known for crafting some of the most memorable horror game experiences over the past 15 years. They began with the Prenumbra series, a trio of titles that gave us our first taste of Frictional's penchant for blending survival horror with physics-based environmental puzzles. The studio then saw a spike in popularity with their next release, Amnesia: The Dark Descent. Amnesia: The Dark Descent expanded upon the...
 

After Us Review (PS5)

After Us offers a glimpse of our future and a warning of things to come.

A gaming experience where you engage in thoughtful introspection, wordless encounters, and some platforming across Earth's many diverse locations to undo the devastation caused by global warming sounds like an intriguing idea on paper. Its execution in After Us, however, leaves quite a bit to be desired. Some awkward platforming, poor combat, and performance woes will ultimately leave you feeling a little less...
 

Redfall is Arkane's Worst Game Ever

It's also the worst "AAA" developed title in recent memory.

It was a struggle to finish Redfall. It was an absolute struggle thanks to performance issues, technical deficiencies, crashes, broken A.I., and uninspired quest design. It was the antithesis of fun and I pushed myself to complete the game out of pure spite.

Prior to playing Redfall, I saw Arkane as a studio that could do no wrong when it comes to their output. Dark Messiah of Might and Magic in 2006...
 

Latest Steam Beta Makes Major Overhaul to the In-game Overlay

Watch YouTube, take notes, chat, and more.

Valve just released a new beta update for Steam that includes a wealth of new features, updated old features, and some under the hood changes. While we don't typically write about updates released for the Steam Client Beta, this particular update had enough cool new features that it was worth a mention.

Right now, you can opt into the new beta for the Steam client that makes some drastic changes to the In-Game Overlay. Now, you...
 

UK Blocks Microsoft Activision Merger

The CMA claims the deal would harm cloud gaming.

Cloud gaming. Cloud gaming is the reason why the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) in the UK voted to block the $69 billion deal that would see Microsoft taking over Activision Blizzard.

The decision didn't come down to concerns over Call of Duty exclusivity or anything that would make some measure of sense. No, it came down to the CMA being concerned that the deal would "undermine new and innovative" competition...

    Star Wars Jedi: Survivor PC Requires 155GB of Space

    The requirements for the game have been updated and it's not good news.

    The PC requirements have been updated for the upcoming Star Wars Jedi: Survivor and it's not particularly good news for those with limited storage space or bandwidth caps.

    Prior to today's update, the required space was already sitting at 130GB. Now, that required space has jumped up to 155GB. Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is apparently going the Call of Duty route here. With the April 28 release date rapidly...

    No Man's Sky Gets Another Insanely Big Update

    Update 4.2 adds corrupted planets, new robotic foes, new technology, new ships, new resources, new freighters, new...

    It's coming up on seven years since No Man's Sky was first released and with the way Hello Games keeps cranking out content filled updates all the time, you would think that they still had something they felt compelled to apologize for. No Man's Sky has been quite excellent for quite some time now, but that sure as hell hasn't stopped the updates from flowing.

    Cyberpunk 2077 - Ray Tracing: Overdrive Mode Explained by Nvidia

    You'll be lucky to achieve even "cinematic" framerates with this.

    CD Projekt Red has been working on an update for Cyberpunk 2077 that will add path tracing capabilities to the game on April 11. Path tracing is essentially "full" ray tracing. Current ray tracing use in most games is a drastically scaled back version of what full ray tracing is capable of.

    Path tracing is typically reserved for static renders, or as part of film and TV visual effects...

    Asus to Enter Mobile PC Market with ROG Ally

    The handheld PC market continues to grow.

    The idea of a mobile or handheld PC isn't exactly new. Valve didn't create that market when they announced and released the Steam Deck, but the Deck is perhaps the most well-known device in that hardware category. Now, Asus is getting into the handheld gaming market with their newly announced ROG Ally.

    Asus chose April Fools to be the day when they made the announcement, but it's going to be a very real device. You can already...

  • Ark 2 Delayed, Ark 1 is Being Taken Offline But You Can Pay for a Remaster Instead

    The move to Unreal Engine 5 was originally said to be a "completely free upgrade." Uh, whoops?
    Late in the day on Friday of last week, Studio Wildcard announced some unfortunate news bundled with some even worse news. The development studio put out a blog update that says Ark 2 is now being pushed to a 2024 release instead of its originally planned 2023 release.

    If that wasn't already bad enough, the studio says that they are taking the official Ark: Survival Evol...

  • What June 2023 Games Releases Will You Buy?
    by Shawn Zipay
    It's a fairly stacked month.

    May and into June is usually when the mid-year lull begins for new game releases. Yet here we are in June 2023 and there are some big games either already out or coming out in the weeks ahead.

    There are several games coming out this month, many of which you might call "bangers" that you might just happen to have your eye on. This month's poll is simple and probably a retread of a poll (or several) that have been done in the past....
