The last few years have been really good for horror games. The Resident Evil 2 and Silent Hill 2 remakes, Signalis, Mouthwashing, and Alan Wake 2 are just some among many, and there's plenty more to come. One I'm incredibly excited for is Karma: The Dark World, which blends psychological nightmares and technological dystopias into one neat package. Best of all, you can try it for free right now.

The Silent Hill f system requirements have been unveiled shortly after the game's reveal, and despite being developed in Unreal Engine 5, the typical high PC demands that usually come with this engine are nowhere to be seen. You won't need the best graphics card to get the best out of Silent Hill f, which is the first game in this Konami horror franchise to actually be set in the developer's homeland of Japan. In-engine footage has been shared, and this gloriously gory game is sure to look spect...

You can save on some of our top picks for the best security cameras as part of a sale on Blink gear. For instance, the Blink Mini 2 is available for $20, which is half off the list price. It matches a record low. A two-pack of the Blink Mini 2 is down to $38 as well. That's not quite a record low, but you'll still save $22 due to the 46 percent percent discount. We reckon the Blink Mini 2 is the best budget security camera around. You can adjust the webcam-style camera to a variety of angles. It...

The world of Project Zomboid is filled with references and easter eggs. Over in Louisville, you’ll find the Romero Center For Performing Arts, a clear nod to undead maestro George Romero. The presenter on Life and Living TV is named Dean, presumably after DayZ’s Dean Hall, and tucked away near Riverside is the Sunderland Hills Sanatorium, likely named for the imperiled protagonist of Silent Hill 2. But the latest Project Zomboid update brings to build 42 and to Knox Country a more meaningful hom...

Store will remove plastic wrapping at point of sale. For as long as Pokémon TCG (Trading Card Game) has been a thing, scalping has been an ongoing issue. If you're somehow unaware at this point as to what the practice entails, it essentially sees certain consumers purchasing products at retail price before selling them on at huge mark-ups. It's not limited to Pokémon TCG, by any means, but it's a problem that's been getting exponentially worse over the last few years. In a recent statement from ...

The pieces were all there for 2021’s Mortal Kombat movie: a fantastic and deep cast, produced during a new era of video game adaptations, with strong costuming and behind-the-scenes footage of some very kinetic fight choreography. Instead, we got a pretty bland mess with limited fight sequences chopped up by the editing style. Most boldly...

Now that Apple’s recent slew of hardware releases are behind us, we got some news on the software side last week. First, the company publicly announced that it was delaying the smarter, more personal version of Siri that’ll be powered by Apple Intelligence.

What's going on in the world of Marvel Rivals, the NetEase hero shooter that is forecast to get two new heroes every three month season, and thus stands to double its starting roster of 33 heroes providing it stays afloat for at least four years? The word on the street is that they're adding new Team-Up skills in Season 2, beginning 11th April - and when I say "the word on the street", I mean it's been officially confirmed by game director Guangyun Chen. I apologise, I will try not to sound like...

Asus has just been caught raising the prices of its Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 and AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT cards even further, despite already listing the cards at well above the MSRP set by both companies. The prices in question are those on its official US store, but the impact is also being felt overseas. With both of these new GPUs being among the best graphics cards you can buy, it's no great surprise to see availability issues continue. Another major frustration is the constant price rises that...

For Mario Land 2 that'll be... six golden coins. Australian retailer EB Games announced last week that it would be expanding its trade-in service to include retro games and consoles. It sounds like a good concept on paper (we retro game fans relish the idea of seeing more classics out in the wild), but in practice, the prices offered by the retailer are rough (thanks for the heads up, Press Start). According to the EB Games website, the new retro service offers the company's "trade value guarant...

For the longest time, The Sims has dominated the life simulation genre. Countless DLCs, new spinoffs, and the recent remasters of the first two games show that the EA and Maxis series isn't going anywhere, but that doesn't mean it has no competition. Krafton's InZOI is almost here, and this new take on the genre is bringing a lot of fresh ideas to the table. If you just can't wait for launch, however, a new demo is about to drop and give you one last chance to try it for yourself.
