Long before Californian developers Naughty Dog broke new ground with modern classics The Last of Us and The Last of Us 2, they brought gamers a distinctly unique series that has gone on to become a cult classic and a fond memory for a certain generation of PlayStation fans. Unlike The Last of Us’ grittily realistic post-apocalyptic world and cinematic storyline that rivals the best movies, movies like Wolf of Wall Street, in the 2000s Naughty Dog were bringing us a colorful fantasy...
Review: 5-hour Energy Gamer Shot
You ever write a three-page review for an energy supplement?
In early May 2024, 5-hour ENERGY (hereto after shown as 5-hour Energy) released a new Gamer Shot line of energy drink supplements. We got some news about it because this is a video game website that posts video game related news. That is how these things work. These 5-hour Energy Gamer Shots are available in three flavors: Pineapple Charge, Rocket Raspberry, and Apple Bash. Unless things have suddenly changed in the fe...

Band Together in Terror: The Outlast Trials Review
The Outlast Trials proves that survival horror can be more fun with friends.
The Outlast Trials is a four-player PvE game taking place in the Cold War era. The game's opening moments and lore paint a gruesome and wicked scene that will be familiar to series veterans but disquieting to those new to the Outlast universe. Players work their way through a series of experiments, each of which plays out on various large maps like a police station, a courthouse, a carnival, and more. The g...

TikTok Ban Signed Into Law by President Biden
Owner ByteDance has 270 days to sell off TikTok.
On April 24, President Joe Biden signed a foreign aid package that also included a bill that could ban TikTok in the United States. This ban can only be averted if the China-based company that owns TikTok, ByteDance, sells off the popular social media app before the 270 day time limit is up.
This gives ByteDance until January 19, 2025 to sell TikTok. An additional 90 day extension could be offered by President Biden if...

The Crew was Ubisoft's open-world racing game that was pulled from sale back in December 2023. As of March 31, 2024, Ubisoft shut down the online servers for The Crew. This effectively made the game unplayable across all platforms, including: PC,...

Half-Life: Alyx Mod Takes Us to BioShock's Rapture
There's always a lighthouse.
A new mod for Half-Life: Alyx was brought to light today courtesy of UploadVR. This mod, from developer wim.buytaert.1988, combines together Half-Life: Alyx with BioShock. The core idea here is that Alyx "crash-lands" in the underwater world of Rapture.
This is accomplished by using repurposed assets from Half-Life: Alyx in combination with new assets based on locations within BioShock itself. It's not a 1 to 1 recreation of BioShock,... -

Amnesia: Rebirth is Out Now
Available now on PS4 and PC.
Frictional Games released Amnesia: Rebirth today on the PC and PlayStation 4. This is a game that we have already covered extensively in the previous weeks and months, so I'll spare you those details and get right into the press release portion.
I will make a note here to say that this game is NOT a remake or a remaster of the first Amnesia game. People seem to believe that it is just because the title has "Re-" in it somewhere. This is an entirely new Amnesia title from the studio that made Amnesia: The Dark Descent. ... -

If you thought that Call of Duty: Warzone would be a safe reprieve from the spooks and scares that come with the Halloween season, you would be wrong. You would be dead wrong. Call of Duty: Warzone has a special "Haunting of Verdansk" that stars Leatherface from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Jigsaw from the Saw franchise.

Fallout 4: New Vegas Fan Mod is Looking Fantastic
Happy birthday, New Vegas.
Ten years ago on October 19, 2010, a little game called Fallout: New Vegas was released and damn was it a hell of a lot of fun. It was praised largely for its unique gameplay elements that it brought to the franchise. It was also praised for its phenomenal writing complete with branching narrative elements that actually mattered to the overall story.
It was still a bit rough around the edges, as it had the combined bugs from being both an Obsidian... -

On top of that, the Kate Bishop content will also be delayed. Kate Bishop was announced back in September and was planned for release in late October.
To be perfectly honest, the game itself should have been delayed for at least a few months while some of the more... -
