The Epic Games Store is going all-in with survival horror for its free games during Halloween this year, as next week you'll be able to grab a copy of The Evil Within 2. Up for keeps alongside it will be puzzle platformer Tandem: A Tale of Shadows. The Evil Within 2 is the sequel to Shinji Mikami's 2014 return to survival horror, and Edwin found it entertainin but lacking with its spooks, in his Evil Within 2 review back in 2017. The game follows police detective Sebastian Castellanos as he atte...

Games Done Quick speedrunning marathons have seen plenty of unusual attempts at beating games as quickly as possible in the name of charity. From races between multiple players to blindfolded runs, there’s often something a little offbeat on the schedule to shake things up. A run that’s earmarked for January's Awesome Games Done Quick event might take the biscuit, though: a Shiba Inu is set to become the first dog to take part in GDQ. Peanut Butter (who is named after the speedrunning term PB, o...

How do you get all Lords of the Fallen endings? With a total of three different paths to walk down, you actually lock yourself into one of them relatively early on in the game, so if you wish to avoid sealing your fate, you need to ensure that you don't immediately go with your gut instincts. Doing so will get you some exclusive classes for your next run. Our Lords of the Fallen review alluded to the fact there are several endings with specific conditions, so what do you need to do to get them? ...

This ‘tiny titan’ isn’t Titanfall 3, but at least she’s a fan.

Lords of the Fallen developers Hexworks are still busily carving a path through the game’s various bugs and performance issues. The latest Lords of the Fallen update, Patch v.1.1.207, is a thrilling litany of technical gremlins that have now been tracked down and slaughtered. Amongst other things, the developers have turned off collision detection for an entire library, to avoid tanking the frame-rate when you - for reasons best known only to yourself - attack the books. In other news, the game ...

Microsoft has released a big budget live-action Xbox Series X/S advert, timed for the holiday season, which showcases several high-profile console exclusives. The advert begins with a young woman making her way home from what is presumably a long day at work. As Nintendo did earlier in the year when it released its live-action Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom trailer, Microsoft seems to be highlighting the welcome relief games can provide, away from the everyday, rain-soaked mundane. This young lady ...

Cities: Skylines 2 review: A sequel packed with big improvements, but a fair share of disappointments.

There are a few things you can bank on when it comes to Bose headphones. The first is powerful and effective active noise cancellation (ANC) that’s been the best in the industry for years. You can also reliably expect that the company’s new set of cans will be comfortable over the course of a long flight or extended work session. Bose continues to check both boxes with the QuietComfort Ultra Headphones ($429), but the marquee feature here is the company’s unique take on spatial audio. However, m...

Cities Skylines 2 is a surprisingly emotional game. What appears to be an completely cerebral, fastidiously detailed planning simulator, where success is measured against your ability to efficiently position roads, buildings, and power lines, becomes a rare combination of warm, parochial pleasure and extreme stress. Within a single sitting - even inside a contained, 30-minute playing window - you’ll experience a peaceful, restorative sense of gratification, and then something bordering on suprem...

As expected, the commissioners of the Federal Communications Commission voted along party lines to move forward with a plan to largely restore Obama-era net neutrality protections. All three of the agency's Democratic commissioners voted in favor of the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (PDF), with the two Republican commissioners dissenting. FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel, who has long supported net neutrality rules, last month announced a proposal to reclassify fixed broadband as an essential ...

Rumors of an Nvidia GeForce RTX 40 Super series have been swirling for practically as long as the graphics card family has been around, largely due to hopes of GPUs with more VRAM. Now, it appears that the GeForce RTX 4070, in addition to the RTX 4070 Ti and RTX 4080, may be due to receive a refresh.

Are the Warhammer: Age of Sigmar - Realms of Ruin system requirements? You won't need the power of an army to run Warhammer Age of Sigmar Realms of Ruin on your PC. Even the average rig should be okay running what might be one of the best games set in the Games Workshop world. Yet, before you wage war throughout the Mortal Realms in Warhammer: Age of Sigmar - Realms of Ruin, it may still be worth upgrading to the latest Windows 11 operating system or one of the best gaming SSDs to limit loading ...

The humble Amazon Fire TV Stick is on sale for $20, representing a discount of 50 percent. This is the exact same price found during the Prime Day event earlier this month, so if you missed it then, now’s your chance. This sale is for the latest generation of the entry-level Fire TV Stick, and not the often-discounted 4K Max edition. The standard Fire TV Stick offers streaming in Full HD and ships with an Alexa-enabled remote for voice controls. There’s Dolby Atmos audio support on select titles...

Space Tales is a new real-time strategy game from Vietnam-based Saigon Dragon, who worked with Numantian Games to develop the brilliant They Are Billions. In They Are Billions, you scraped together walls and turrets to hold off a world's worth of undead, and prolong the miserable lives of a tiny handful of non-zombified humans at your settlement's core. Space Tales is breezier of demeanour - like the confusingly named 2014 RTS Space Rogue, it takes inspiration from 1940s retro-futurism, with bri...

Apple is working on a larger iPad Air featuring a 12.9-inch display, in what would be the biggest ‌iPad Air‌ model to date, DigiTimes reports. Citing industry sources, ‌DigiTimes‌ highlighted that unlike the 12.9-inch iPad Pro, the 12.9-inch ‌iPad Air‌ will not feature a mini-LED display.

'All for the glory of the Master Sword'. For many gamers, Dragonforce is probably most well-known for the absurdly difficult 'Through the Fire and the Flames' song on 2007's Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock. The band, however, also happens to be pretty darn good in its own right, even if its music isn't quite to everybody's taste. Ahead of the launch of the band's new album Warp Speed Warriors on March 15th, 2024, Dragonforce has released 'Power of the Triforce', a new single based on none other...

For PointCrow, creative playthroughs and mods are another way to get into games.

It looks like the release date of Sony's PlayStation 5 Slim has leaked, along with a Marvel's Spider-Man 2 bundle. Sony announced its PS5 Slim last week, which will launch in November in the US before being rolled out to other countries. Once inventory of the existing model has sold out, the new Slim model will be the only one available. Billbil-kun of Dealabs has noted several Japanese merchants have opened pre-orders, with a release date of 10th November, suggesting this might be when it's ava...

Football Manager 2024's Early Access period - until now called an open beta - is now live, silencing the usual screams of desperation from fellow FM addicts. For those unfamiliar, this is generally how new FM games roll out each year, with a period of up to a month before the official release date - in FM24's case, 6th November - being marked out as a kind of final public test, which you can gain access to by pre-ordering the game with a small discount. It's the same again here, albeit with just...
