The first Crysis, released way back in 2007, before a recession and an AI boom, was the real measuring stick of whether you had a PC worthy of being called a ‘gaming PC’. The impressive visuals, intense action, and the ever-awesome Nanosuit made it a staple of the best FPS games in the 2000s, with sequels leading it into the early 2010s. While Crysis’ mark on the industry isn’t as strong as it once was, it helps that they’re still incredible games to play, and you can grab the entire trilogy – remastered in all its goodness – at a…

The Helldivers 2 Veracitors and Gatekeepers are some of the latest additions to the Illuminate’s forces, bringing heavy firepower and crushing melee attacks to the field. These massive squid mechs are found exclusively in the new Appropriators sub-faction, a gnarly mix of Overseers, the Illuminate’s largest war machines, and swarms of drones that can wreck any Helldivers 2 team. Thankfully, they’re actually quite easy to bring down because the pilots don’t get the best protection, so here’s a rundown of everything you need to know to kill Veracitors and Gatekeepers quickly and easily in Helldivers 2.Best way to kill Veracitors…

Is it fair to say Cities: Skylines 2’s development has been incredibly messy? I’d say it’s fair, after all, the game has completely shifted developers in the past few months, that doesn’t sound like smooth sailing to me. In the nearly three years since it was released, the city builder still has plenty of issues to deal with, perhaps a symptom of a more industry wide problem. But in a recent interview, Mariina Hallikainen, CEO of the game’s now former developer Colossal Order, has spoken about the specific difficulties the studio faced with the engine the game was built…

I have a confession to make: I’m a chronic floordrobe offender. It’s not for lack of trying, mind you, but some days you take down your dried garms, fold them up, and just go, ‘nah, I’ll put them away later.’ Days go by, and before you know it, your entire bedroom is a mess. Wallpaper’s hanging off the walls, and the local woodworms are now chowing down on the floorboards. Okay, maybe it’s not that dramatic, but it nonetheless presents the opportunity to pull everything up and start again. Hozy is a game about doing just that, and from its…

Slay the Spire 2 still sits at a seemingly untouchable Very Positive Steam rating with 81% of its total 68,755 reviews (as of writing) being from happy customers, but a recent mess of negative reviews could change that.Some players are truly offended at new beta patch v0.100.0, which is an opt-in patch through the public-beta branch for the Early Access sequel. Those who have chosen to test the patch, however, will experience a range of balance adjustments and a new Phobia mode to make the scares less scary in Slay the Spire 2. If only developer Mega Crit could have…

Well, you all did it, Cryo Archive has been unlocked in Marathon. Bungie detailed the new mode in a blog post earlier today, where it shared an important thing to keep in mind with the new map: it’s only available to attempt on weekends. Aye, you’ll need to forgo any social plans you have out in the real world to tackle this one. At the very least, “weekend” sounds like it’ll include Friday, as the new map actually goes live tomorrow, March 20th. But there’s another important thing to keep in mind, and that’s the fact it also…

Wave goodbye to many of your infinite combos as the first Slay the Spire 2 balance patch comes crashing down on our heads. Mega Crit has been studying our play carefully, and with the roguelike deckbuilder still surpassing half-a-million player peaks every day, it’s had plenty of data to choose from. The aim of today’s patch is making infinites harder to achieve – they won’t be gone altogether, as they’re a fundamental part of the StS 2 power curve, but they shouldn’t be nearly as easy to get rolling. This Slay the Spire 2 update also introduces ‘Phobia Mode,’ designed…

Marvel Studios is expanding its release calendar with two new dates for 2029 while also making some adjustments to its existing dates by pushing back one of its planned 2028 films.None of the films attached to these dates have been revealed, though there are some likely candidates. Perhaps most likely for the 2028 date, which was moved from February 18, 2028 to July 13, 2028 (via The Wrap), is Academy Award winning director Ryan Coogler’s Black Panther 3. Coogler previously stated his plans to make the threequel his next film, following his previous two entries in the series.There’s also the…

The words “consensus” and “RPS treehouse” are normally alien to one another, as is apparent from all the blood splatter on every new RPS 100. Yet among those of us who’ve been playing open world everything-’em-up Crimson Desert, an agreement has formed that its vastness – its 150-odd gigabytes of ideas, mechanics, and sheer maximalist fantasy – can too easily feel unwieldy. To a degree, the same is true of its PC performance. It’s not bad, and often balances its gleaming visuals with smooth framerates quite well. Good support for new (but not too new) flavours of DLSS and FSR,…

After weeks of trial, error, and a ton of in-game mileage, Marathon’s super sleuths have finally cracked the ARG puzzle for Cryo Archives, unlocking the FPS game’s first endgame map. From the launch trailer subsequently shared by Bungie, Cryo Archives looks to blend tightly-crafted corridors with plenty of verticality and open sections, so I’m already expecting absolute chaos. Before you’ll even be allowed to step foot inside the Cryo Archives when it arrives later today, however, you’ll have to pass the barrier for entry. As revealed by Bungie in a new post, Cryo Archive is located on the UESC Marathon’s…
