Spearhead has been a game mode in Warhammer: Age of Sigmar for the last few years. Effectively a compact and streamlined version of AoS, with pre-set army lists, it’s a very fun and competitive system that’s easy to pick up and play.In theory, the skirmish game holds a similar function (though very different rules) to Kill Team, which is set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe. In practice, however, there’s been…
Obsidian Entertainment were once the studio heading Baldur’s Gate 3, but the only reason that timeline didn’t come to pass was an accounting error.That’s according to Obsidian co-founder and former developer Chris Avellone, who recently talked about what could’ve been with YouTube channel TKs-Mantis. Talking Fallout with Chris Avellone – YouTube Watch On Apparently, the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic developer had been drafted to create the next entry in the Dungeons and Dragons RPG series, around 2008, when it “got canceled because of an accounting error.” Avellone says it was “very suspicious on Interplay’s part,” the publisher…
I don’t know about you, readers, but this past week’s gone by in a bit of a blur. Did I volunteer to take WAWAPs for today, or was I forced at Ziff Davis canteen sporkpoint? I can’t even remember, but perhaps relaxing with some PC games – and/or reading about what you’re all playing – will help lift the brainfog.
Pragmata might’ve taken its sweet time to finally come out, but the wait seems to have been worth all those delays. Capcom’s new action-adventure is now one of its best-rated Steam games ever, and only a couple points behind its magnum opus, Resident Evil 4 Remake.Pragmata launched in full just yesterday, but it’s already amassed well over 1,500 English language reviews over on Steam alone with a whopping 97% of players giving it the thumbs up for an ‘Overwhelmingly Positive’ rating.”Capcom are on an absolute generational run right now. It’s refreshing to see a big publisher take a risk on…
Hideo Kojima still has plenty of creative fuel left in the tank, according to Death Stranding and The Last of Us actor Troy Baker.Kojima’s already put out hit after hit for decades, delivering wild spectacles and outlandish stories at every turn between the war-riddled Metal Gear Solid series, the nightmarish corridors of PT, and his two most recent Death Stranding games. But with the upcoming Hideo Kojima games – horror experiment OD and stealth-action game Physint – Baker told GamesRadar+ that the famed director’s “not running out of ideas anytime soon” in an interview ahead of the 2026 BAFTA Game…
Wild Gunman is a cornerstone of Nintendo history. Created by legendary Game Boy designer Gunpei Yokoi, this arcade machine used film reels to let you play out Wild West gun battles against live-action outlaws. The game would eventually be recreated as a traditional, pixel art light gun game for NES, and would be referenced in numerous future Nintendo products, but the original has effectively been lost to time. Until now, that is, as an arcade collector has just created the closest thing you’re going to find to the real thing.That collector is Callan Brown, who goes by 74XX Arcade Repair,…
Fallout 2 and New Vegas designer Chris Avellone has never hesitated to share how much he despises Amazon’s Fallout TV show adaptation, but he still has another 15 or 40 minutes of complaining to do about its second season, which he apparently sat down to watch despite hating it and wanting it to get hit by a car.In this way, Avellone was just like 83 million other viewers who tuned in for Fallout season 2, Amazon’s second-most-watched returning show: flies flocking to a molding chicken dinner. We weren’t especially amazed by season 2 either, describing in our Fallout season 2…
A newly announced revision to Arc Raiders’ season-wiping Expedition system has sparked blowback from players, particularly those who worry they won’t be available to play during the five-day challenge teed up by developer Embark Studios, or those frustrated that the resources they’ve saved all season no longer matter.For the Expedition sign-up opening April 28 and closing May 4, Arc Raiders players will not need to purchase bonus skill points with money or stash value, but can instead earn them by completing a “deal damage” challenge in a five-day window. The shift from saving money to dealing damage seems to have…
Fallout: New Vegas has aged into a beloved RPG, but when it first launched it faced widespread complaints about performance, and specifically its choppy frame rates. To this day, it’s generally recommended that you download stability mods if you’re playing on PC, as the game was developed on the notoriously buggy, and even by 2010 standards, outdated, Gamebryo engine. According to a new anecdote shared by original Fallout: New Vegas senior designer Chris Avellone, there were some folks at publisher Bethesda that had an inkling the game wasn’t going to run at a steady frame rate even before it launched.”I…
Hitman developer IO Interactive has always seemed like a natural fit to make a James Bond game, and everything we’ve seen and heard about its next game, 007: First Light, has been pretty encouraging. However, any remaining doubt in my head has been completely obliterated after watching the game’s newly revealed opening cinematic.Every James Bond fan has their own favorite opening credits sequence. I’m partial to Skyfall’s with that Oscar-winning Adele song, but I can certainly respect The Spy Who Loved Me and GoldenEye as extremely valid choices. Stylish, seductive, mysterious, and usually backed by a swelling musical arrangement performed…
