    Another promising game that's had a miserable launch which will sour it permanently. This time a disgusting amount of microtransactions along with aggressive Denuvo implementation and performance issues. Literally charging $2 just to edit your character! Never got the original despite it's cult success but it just defies belief how companies literally ruin their new game for the sake of greed. It's not like Capcom need the money either and it's a full price bloody game too!

    More drama about the England shirts and this time with the flag on the collar. Really not sure why we need an American company to not only produce, but also design our shirts. Surely there is a UK sports manufacturer that could do this? Umbro are surely still in the game. Nike should stick to basketball and selling 40000% marked-up clothing and footwear.

    Horrible shirt ruined by the overly-big collar plus the price is £100-125 apparently which is beyond disgusting. Probably cost £3 to make in a Nike sweatshop. These shirts should be £40-50 max.

    1,000,000 sales now Top-tier deckbuilder Balatro hits 1 million sales in less than a month, which hopefully justifies all the hours we've collectively lost to it | PC Gamer WWW.PCGAMER.COM Upping the ante.

    FA Cup Quarter Finals were pretty insane this weekend - Wolves 2-3 Coventry, Man City 2-0 Newcastle (yawn) Jammy Chelsea 4-2 Leicester and Man Utd 4-3 Liverpool. Really enjoyed watching all those games minus the City one which I comfortably ignored.

    Down to 19% now. The game unpacked is apparently over 60gb which is hilarious. Developers couldn't even be bothered to compress their upscaled textures which suggest it was probably done by AI also. Another classic destroyed. Very weird how Aspyr were able to do the Tomb Raider trilogy very well but this one was remarkably low-effort if no effort at all.

    'Probably one of the worst launches of all time': Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection players tear into Aspyr for bugs, crashes, and 3 64-player launch servers for nearly 10,000 users | PC Gamer WWW.PCGAMER.COM The Classic Collection was meant to bring balance to Battlefront, not destroy it.

    Game has released and it's sitting at just 21% positive right now. Looks like a very low-effort re-release and a very expensive one too. Netcode and input lag issues seem to be the biggest complaint. The modded originals that you could've got anytime for a fiver in the last 15 years look way better.

    Would never have expected this. £36 for the trilogy though is quite heavy especially when you could pick up the collection for £5 back in 2014 on PC. Then there's the extensive modding scene which has proven to be essential and so beneficial over the years. I think £6.99 each would've been a far better pricepoint and you can run these games literally on a toaster.

    They certainly enjoy milking DLC - Snowrunner has 4 season passes at £22 each whereas the original Mudrunner had 3 free map DLC's and an expansion that cost £9. Snowrunner is basically a shell and if you wanted the entire experience it would've cost about £105 and even then large parts of the game remain neglected or unfinished. Expeditions seems really watered-down especially coming off the back of Snowrunner and even the OG Mudrunner so it'll probably cost another £90 on top to get all the upcoming DLC's if not even more.

    Dishonored is another one that is commonly overlooked probably because most people play in low chaos or just don't make the most of the powers on offer. I certainly am nowhere near good or creative enough to pull off half the stuff in this video but it just goes to show what can be done if you go beneath the surface and really utilise everything on offer.

    This game looks a bit downgraded and simplified even compared to Snowrunner. I do like how they’ve done something new with the theme but it all looks a bit unspectacular when compared to lugging some serious cargo in the likes of Spintires and the original Mudrunner. Expeditions looks a bit straightforward and arcadey which is great for newcomers but veterans may be a little put-off. Since Snowrunner, the realism has taken a bit of a knock too and this one looks even more basic so I’m really on the fence but I do like the alternative theme.

    Last of Max Payne 3
  21. J4MES OX4D
    Even more Max Payne 3

    This is also a great example of what can be achieved in Max Payne 3 - so incredibly satisfying to pull off and a nice explanation of the details

    Every so often I stumble upon, or revisit a game which is just the equivalent of crack in terms of highly enjoyable and pulsating combat. These games just have that extra something which really stands out and where the combat shines mechanically and even visually. Off the top of my head, I'd say 3 games which really stand out are:- Metal Gear Rising - fast paced, responsive, smooth and incredibly satisfying melee-based combat. F.E.A.R - inspired by Max Payne's bullet time feature but with additional immersion thanks to the first person perspective. Max Payne 3 - bullet time never gets old plus the attention to detail and environmental effects look spectacular. There's probably loads more that I've forgotten about but what are your standout games that just have that little bit more in terms of the combat?
  24. J4MES OX4D
    Some more Max Payne 3

    I was never really interested in the story of Borderlands and missed out on the Tales From Borderlands game so I'm not really sure how this will pan out but I'm sure they will find a solid story even with such limited source material. Kinda wished something like this happened sooner because the series has kind of fizzled out for many years and the third title had some of the most notoriously bad writing ever seen in a piece of media. I think it will do pretty well and could refresh the brand but it should've probably been done around 2015-16.
