Review: The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition

An easy purchase for new players but maybe a hard sell for existing owners.

It was not until I reinstalled the original PC release of The Outer Worlds that I was able to really appreciate the improvements made with the release of The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition. Initially, I believed that this looked exactly like the same game that I had played on PC back in late 2019 when it first came out.

"I'm just not seeing what makes this Spacer's Choice Edition worth...

    A Shift in Focus for TGN News and Features

    Hey everyone! Wow, it's been a while since we last had an announcement here, so I thought it was high time I change that.

However, I would rather my time be spent more on the creation of original content such as reviews, previews of upcoming games, and perhaps more long-form content. I've been thinking ab...

    Do you like playing on consoles? Do you prefer to play games on PC? What about mobile games? Maybe you prefer to spend most of your time on your phone playing this, that, or the other....
