Alan Wake 2 Review: A Must-Play Psychological Horror Experience
Easily, the best horror game in years.
In 2010 Remedy Entertainment released Alan Wake, a game where a writer is pulled into a horrifying world seemingly of his own creation. Alan Wake was a game that I bounced off at least two times. Despite the game being well received by critics and fans, I felt like its gameplay was just a repetitive slog that even its unique story could not overcome. When a sequel was announced by Remedy, I found myself extremely indifferent to the news. Still...

Review: Starfield
A safe, if not soulless, journey through the cosmos.
Bethesda Game Studios releases are safe. They are familiar. You know almost exactly what to expect when a major new release from them rolls around. They instill a feeling of "I know this game won't be groundbreaking, but I know I'll have fun." Yes, there are some obvious differences, but the heart of each Bethesda game is almost universally the same. The recent release of Starfield is no different. To put it bluntly: Starfield is Fall...

Tim Sweeney Continues Hyperbolic, Baseless Attack on Windows 10
Tim Sweeney was once known for his role in co-founding Epic Games. Epic Games, as we all know, created some of the world's most recognized titles in franchises such as Unreal Tournament and Gears of War. They have also created one of the world's most widely used game engines, Unreal Engine. These days, Sweeney is more keen on throwing out a bunch of outlandish claims against the Windows 10 operating system and against Microsoft. About a year ago, Sweeney first started his attacks on ... -

Blizzard Testing Server Browser in New Overwatch PTR Update
Blizzard has gone ahead and added in a server browser as part of the latest PTR update for Overwatch. This addition allows you to customize a huge number of variables and play the game with your friends, those you invite, or even with the general public.
This PTR update also includes the Capture the Flag game mode, first introduced in the ongoing Capture the Rooster event in the non-PTR release of Overwatch. This update also includes the start of the re-balancing of Bastion, a change to Eichenwalde, and plenty of other changes/balancing.
The current list of changes can be found here. The PTR is optional and will probably have a number of changes between now and the public release of the next major patch.... -

Lords of the Fallen Makes Transition to Mobile
The "not quite Dark Souls but still pretty good in its own way" game, Lords of the Fallen, is now available as a mobile game. An intense action title like Lords of the Fallen can be played on mobile platforms? Yes, but there are obviously some key changes that have been made here.
Lords of the Fallen combines swipe-based 1-on-1 combat with mechanics familiar to RPG fans. Each character has his or her own combat style, and can be customized and trained to improve different skills.... -

Final Fantasy XV Somehow Broke Even on Launch Day
Square Enix must be pretty happy with how fans responded to the release of Final Fantasy XV. First they said that just two days after launch the game had already sold more than 5 million units. Now, they're telling us that the game broke even on development costs on its launch day.
Director Hajime Tabata told DualShockers this rather impressive factoid. Since then, Square Enix said that the game has announced that the game has shipped over six million units as of January.... -

Steam Profiles Are Once Again Safe to Visit
Earlier today, a warning came by telling users not to visit any Steam profile or even their own Activity Feed within Steam. This was actually a major security issue with how the "My Guides Showcase" parsed scripts that were placed within the title of guides. This allowed for code to be injected into anybody that put these malicious guides into their Showcase. This then made visiting affected profiles a security risk along with the Activity Feed that displayed these guides that friends adde... -
