  The Codemasters portfolio continues to grow.
  
  Codemasters picked up Slightly Mad Studios this past week for a cool $30 million. Slightly Mad Studios is the development team behind the Project Cars games.

They own the rights to the Dirt, Grid, and Formula 1 franchises. Slightly Mad Studios has been around for about 10 years now. They previously worked on some games for EA including Need for Speed: Shift and Shift...

  4 VR Games Worth Trying Before Half-Life: Alyx

  We couldn’t control our excitement when Valve announced the latest title in the Half-Life series (though it’s not Half-Life 3) recently. The company is calling the game its VR flagship, so you’ll need a VR headset if you want to play it. If you already have one, great. If you don’t, well, it’s up to you to buy a headset or be satisfied playing your favourite mobile casinos in the UK. But one thing is for sure — you wouldn’t want to jump into Alyx without any VR experience beforehand. This is why here we are listing 4 VR games you should play before March 2020 to get...

  No Man's Sky Synthesis Update Drops Tomorrow

  A number of quality of life improvements are coming.
  
  I am starting to believe that Hello Games just never sleep. The team released their absolutely massive Beyond update back on August 14 of this year for all platforms, including having the game launch on the Xbox One for the first time ever. That update added VR, Vulkan support, tons of new content across the board, and more. It was followed up by some smaller bug fix updates in the days following release.
  
  Here we are just in November and another massive update is about to hit. November 28,...

  Get Titanfall 2 for Free in December with PlayStation Plus

  The December 2019 free PlayStation Plus games were just revealed today.
  
  Sony has announced the two free PlayStation 4 games that PlayStation Plus subscribers will be able to pick up once December 2019 rolls around. One of them is a game that has regularly gone on sale for about $5. The other is Monster Energy Supercross - The Official VIdeogame.
  
  Oof.
  
  To be fair to the first game, it is Titanfall 2 and Titanfall 2 is a really damn good game. That is assuming you like first-person shooters and/or Respawn Entertainment. You may have...

  A new Friend Pass system was just added to the co-op horror game.
  
  Bandai Namco just announced today that Man of Medan now has a Friend's Pass system available on the PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. This means that all you need in order to play the game with a friend is a friend. That friend should probably also have an Internet connection and also play on the same platform that you do.
  
  The publisher says that anybody that owns the game or purchases it before January 6, 2020 will be granted one complimentary Friend's Pass. This pass allows you...

  Halo Stickers and Music Added to Counter-Strike: Global Offensive

  I think Halo is a pretty cool guy.
  
  343 Industries just rolled out an update today for Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. Wait.
  
  Hold on. Let's take a step back here for a second.
  
  343 Industries released a Counter-Strike update? Yes! Well, sort of!
  
  Today saw the release of some new cross-promotion content between 343 Industries and Valve. This new cross-promotion content adds in a Halo Sticker Capsule (pictured here) as an in-game purchasable item for Counter-Strike. Not only that, but those who own The Master Chief Col...

  The devs behind one of the most popular VR titles is now with Oculus.
  
  When you think of popular VR titles, Beat Saber is probably one of the few titles that constantly comes to mind. Whether you have VR on the PC, Oculus devices, HTC devices, the Index, or PlayStation VR, Beat Saber is just one of those "must try" titles that you kind of suggest everyone tries.
  
  The success of Beat Saber has not gone unnoticed by Oculus Studios. Today, they announced that they have picked up Beat Games, the studio behind Beat Saber. Beat Games will serve...

  Valve Pulled Almost 1000 Games from Steam Last Night

  Entire publisher catalogs have disappeared.
  
  Last night, Valve pulled almost 1,000 games from Steam. Entire publisher catalogs were wiped out, leaving many to wonder just what happened.
  
  It seems as though nearly all of the games in question were almost all tied to a single Russian publisher, Dagestan Technology. This publisher appeared to operate under a large number of different names. The list of banned games, found here across nearly four pages, are probably games you've never heard of before unless you dove deep into Steam's colossal library....
